What are some movies with awesome surround sound? I just got my 6.1 system hooked up, so now I need to experience it! So what are some of your favorite movies that have the best surround sound in them?

Gladiator is very good, as well as the new Star Wars movies.

I read a good list on hometheaterforum.com. The site isn't working for me right now, otherwise I'd post it.
