    Action Movies

    Lets list down all the action movies, that shake the room, rattle the windows, take the juice out of our HTS and wake up the neighbours.

    - Day after tomorrow
    - LOTR- all
    - Saving Private Ryan
    - War of the Worlds

    Although some might not fall in the same genre, but as long as they suffice my first para, list them here. :T

    Don't know whether of these counts as some of them are barely at the edge of "action":
    Gladiator
    The Island
    Pirates of Caribbean
    Panic room
    Toy story 1/2
    The Incredibles
    And all these pixar cartoons!

    If you like marvel comics spiderman, xmen and fantastic 4 are good too
    Pioneer KRP-500M
    Emotiva UMC-1
    Parasound 5125
    Oppo BDP-83
    Klipsch RF-3II, RC-3II, RB-5II
    SVS PB-10NSD

        The cannon fire in Master And Commander is awesome. Also, U571. Those depth charge scenes will have you checking your foundation for cracks.

              Chronicles of Riddick - 2004 Unrated Director's Cut
              by Shane Martin
              Having seen Pitch Black just this year I was intrigued by the sequel(I'm hearing that 2 more are wanting to be made now..) also having missed this at the theater and liking this type of movie I knew I'd buy it. My expectations were rather low going in due to a piss poor showing at the box office plus...

              The Chronicles of Riddick (teaser online)
              by Gordon Moore
              Wow, I'm gonna be broke in 2004.

              Man I loved Pitch Black for what is was....B-movie type sci-fi with the right pace of story and action, that happened to star this up-n-comer named Vin Desiel.

              The story takes place 5 years after the events of Pitch Black....go to the web...

It's a sequel to the surprisingly popular small-budget Pitch Black, and stars Vin Diesel as Richard B. Riddick, again. From the trailers,...

              by knot_m3
