THE SHADOW
THE BOXER
MERCURY RISING
DANTE'S PEAK

These were issued on Laserdisc as well in DTS and were stunning! Stunning I say!
So there was a lag between the first DVD's appearing in stores and DTS appearing as well.
i'm one of the few that got burned pretty bad by Laserdisc - I only had a few compared to some, maybe 30 or so..but I didn't have the decoder to process any DTS, if they even had it. Don't remember.
I always felt Laserdisc had some titles that looked and sounded better than some DVD's I ended up replacing - Apollo 13 comes to mind...
