Tommy,
It's a must-have demo if you like the movie, which I most emphatically do. Picture and sound quality are topnotch and it will really show off a 6.1 system to great advantage.

If you don't like the movie, there are a few other dvds that will also show off your HT about as well. Gladiator, Blade II, Starwars II, all have great pic and sound quality.

A couple or three years ago everyone around here was raving about the demo-quality of "Lost in Space"--a movie I saw in the theaters and really didn't like so I didn't buy it.

I refuse to buy a "demo quality" disc of a movie I don't like. Fortunately LOTR/FOTR EE doesn't fall into that category for me, but ymmv.

I prefer not to push the subwoofers until they\'re properly run in.
