Time again for a very fun edition of The Weekly Top 5. Because I love buying DVD’s, especially ones that look and sound great, this list is going to be easy. If you don’t know what DTS means, go to your local Best Buy and tell an associate that you just found your manhood and you’d like to buy a man’s home theater system. I bring you the Top 5 DTS DVD’s:

Honorable Mentions:

Toy Story / Toy Story 2: One of the best uses of every single speaker I have ever heard.

War of the Worlds / Minority Report: What can I say? Dreamworks always makes great DTS tracks.
                                       
The Fast and the Furious: Cars never sounded more aggressive. Makes me wish DTS was around when Bullit was tearing up the streets.
                                      
Neil Young: Heart of Gold: Quite simply, one of the greatest concert DVD’s ever made.
                                       
Super Speedway: If you have friends over, and want to prove that your home theater is more expensive. Will make you feel like you are inside of an F1 racecar.
                                       
Se7en (Seven): Points for innovation go here. The first DTS ES 6.1 mix. The gunshot to Kevin Spacey’s skull comes from the rear center so loud you might cry.                                                                              

5. Bring It On (2000)

I know what you are thinking…and stop it right now. Seriously though folks, this DTS track is something you would never expect. The music is phenominal, and the Subwoofer and Rears are used more often than Jacko’s plastic surgeon.

4. Hero (2002)

Chapter seven, blue room…and get ready to wake up the neighbors. The sound will rotate completely around you, and come crashing to a halt along with the bookcases.

3. Speed (1994)

Remember that elevator scene that opened up the movie? It sounds like a freight train falling through your living room at 100 mph.

2. U-571 (2000)

The underwater explosions will be sure to knock a few frames off the wall, that is assuming you don’t have a little girl subwoofer. Because in that case this movie will blow up your subwoofer, consequently causing you to buy a new and much larger subwoofer that would be considered hideous to females.

1. Saving Private Ryan (1998)

The opening sequence on the beach is legendary. If you were lucky enough to snag this film in it’s DTS version, now you sir will be legendary. You know that friend who always thinks his setup is better? Show him otherwise with this hardcore DTS DVD.
