What movies did you have to see/hear first on your home theater system back in the day?
I'll go with:
Top Gun
A River Runs Through It
Last of the Mohicans

For our first DVD player, my dad bought a full home theater system with a 5 disc changer. The first DVD we watched was Terminator 2.
I had watched that movie so many times that I had nearly worn out the tape prior to that, but watching it with that setup was like seeing it for the first time.

True Lies, the Harrier taking off. Greatest display of surround sound at the time.

The Matrix
The lobby shootout scene is the defacto test for your surround sound system.

Simulated surround sound?
I imagine Top Gun predates the techniques used for surround sound. (Could be wrong though)

My dad set up surround sound when I was little. I believe the first movie I saw with it was Star Trek Generations on the laser disc. It was awesome.

Swordfish when Travolta blows all that shite up and those ball bearings went everywhere. Or final destination 2 when the logs come off the truck.

Swordfish, the ball bearing scene at 2:05 was awesome.
