I want to start a thread about this subject. This is a big issue with Dolby ATMOS movies. Basically most movies don't have a good ATMOS Mix. They turn out to have just regular 360 degree sound field which you already get with Dolby Digital 5.1 and 7.1 for the most part.
ATMOS is supposed to add height to the sound so that you get a 3D effect but a lot of movie studios are barely using this feature specially after marketing ATMOS all over the place and having people spend a lot of money in these audio systems. We need to hold these movie studios accountable for their bad ATMOS mixes!
As far as I've looked there's no website that dedicates itself to rating or reviewing Dolby ATMOS content.
There's a lot of videos on YouTube about the best ATMOS movies recommendations etc. but I found a video that discredits those claims about best ATMOS movies with films like John Wick 2, Godzilla, Alita and Mad Max.
In this video "Stop the FOMO" guy disconnects all channels except the height channels to determine how much ATMOS height content there is in these movies. YOU WILL BE SURPRICED!
Dolby ATMOS Overhead Effects? You’re Not Missing Much
If anyone is able to continue to do tests like this on different movies and post their findings here in some form of rating or review this would help all of us 3D Audioholics choose the best movies for audio entertainment! Let the fun begin! Post your findings below!
