Kate von Katz 49953 Report post Posted July 8, 2010 I'm curious to see what your favorite movie soundtracks are. They can be innovative, weird, or just full of great tunes! My faves: Spawn soundtrack Queen of The Damned soundtrack A Clockwork Orange soundtrack And - of course - both the Blues Brothers soundtracks Posted via Mobile Device Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jasperzp 132 Report post Posted July 8, 2010 Weirdly enough I loved the Shrek 2 Soundtrack. Wainwrights version of Hallelujah alone makes it worth the purchase. The Jason Wade track is excellent as well. Just be prepared to skip past the Smashmouth :p Favorite of all time would probably have to be the Thomas Crowne Affair.

Reddog2402 2225 Report post Posted July 8, 2010 Grosse Point Blank - some great oldies there! If you like instrumental, Braveheart and Gladiator are great too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Naughty_Nadia 100 Report post Posted July 8, 2010 Fight Club had pretty much the best soundtrack that I've heard. Run Lola Run had an awesome soundtrack too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old Dog 179138 Report post Posted July 8, 2010 Grosse Point Blank - some great oldies there! If you like instrumental, Braveheart and Gladiator are great too. RD... MUST agree!!!!!! Grosse Pointe Blank has two soundtracks and they are both fantastic!!!! I would love to get my hands on the House Bunny Soundtrack... that was fantastic Pretty in Pink had an amazing soundtrack too.... Lindsay... the Clockwork Orange soundtrack is another fave... Pretty much any Will Ferrell movie... lotsa retro there. It's unfortunate that "stepbrothers" has no true soundtrack ... cuz the Por ti Volare/Boats and Ho's mix was magnificent!

VedaSloan 119179 Report post Posted July 8, 2010 I gotta go with the soundtrack to the musical Once. Glen Hansard yo! And all the music for Buffy the Vampire Slayer (the show). That show introduced to me to so many awesome bands, like Cibo Matto, the Sundays, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Old Dog 179138 Report post Posted July 8, 2010 I gotta go with the soundtrack to the musical Once. Glen Hansard yo! Erin... have to agree with ya on "Once"... that was a brilliant movie with an incredible soundtrack.... More have come to mind: Help! - The Beatles. It wasn't just an album, it was a defining moment in music... The Big Chill - Hearkens back to those Motown days of the 60's when everything that Berry Gordy published turned to gold... magical American Graffiti - If you needed one album to capture the American sound of the late 50's and early 60's, this would be it. Pulp fiction - Quirky, erratic and infinitely worthwhile, this album brings back the hot guitar of Dick Dale... The James Bond Collection - technically not the soundtrack of one movie but a collection of all the theme songs from Dr. No through the early 80's... Easy Rider... what American Graffiti was to the 50's, Easy Rider gave us for the late 60's... Hendrix, the Byrds, The Band, Steppenwolf... O Brother, Where art thou.... brilliant Coen brothers movie with an amazing soundtrack to accompany... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest M***ell***A Report post Posted July 8, 2010 Pulp fiction - Quirky, erratic and infinitely worthwhile, this album brings back the hot guitar of Dick Dale... I'm a big fan of the Pulp Fiction soundtrack and pretty well any Tarantino movie soundtrack. I also really like The Big Lebowski soundtrack, but I may be a bit bias with that one since it is one of my fave movies of all time! Awesome Dylan tune, awesome Costello tune and I really like Nina Simone's I Got It Bad, and That Ain't Good... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Old Dog 179138 Report post Posted July 8, 2010 We could probably put any Coen Bros. or Quentin Tarantino movie in the mix... the music is just such a central part of the whole movie. I just wish that Kevin Smith movies had available soundtracks, cuz he is a genius as well. Two more? Trainspotting... gritty and amazing Blade Runner... now that was something...

Guest M***ell***A Report post Posted July 8, 2010 Yes, I love the Lebowski soundtrack as well, and I'm also biased because I also love that movie. Isn't it a great one? I think I have seen it like 20 million times (slight exaggeration but not too far off!) and I still laugh every time! We could probably put any Coen Bros. or Quentin Tarantino movie in the mix... the music is just such a central part of the whole movie. I just wish that Kevin Smith movies had available soundtracks, cuz he is a genius as well. Along those lines I have to say I cannot hear the song "Stuck In the Middle With You" without thinking about that scene from Reservoir Dogs... And I love Kevin Smith! I have every one of his movies... Have I ever mentioned that I'm actually a bit of a geek? lol But when I think about it I can't really bring to mind any of the music from his movies except for Morris Day/The Time - Jungle Love... Go figure, there's no "Tarzan" smiley lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, me too. It's my go-to film if I can't think of anything else to watch. There are just too many great lines from that movie. "OVER THE LINE. Mark it zero." "but I wasn't over the line--" "Mark it zero. Smokey, this is bowling not 'Nam, there are rules." "but, I wasn't over." "Mark it zero, or you are entering a world of pain." "but." "A world of pain."

Go figure, there's no "Tarzan" smiley lol Morris Day and the Time.... Jungle Love... that was my favourite tune of 1985.... And Clerks II... the "ABC" dance number, possibly the best segue into a dance in any movie EVER!!!! I too am somewhat of a geek... I not only own all the movies, I also have all three of the "evening with Kevin Smith" dvd sets.... amazing!!!!! and "Stuck in the Middle with you???" my song from Quentin is "Counting Flowers on the Wall" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest M***ell***A Report post Posted July 9, 2010 Yep, me too. It's my go-to film if I can't think of anything else to watch. There are just too many great lines from that movie. "OVER THE LINE.

"A world of pain." OMG that's like my fave scene (ok can't really pick a fave but that one is in the top 5!) I can't count how many times I have been in some situation where all I can't think is "Has the whole world gone crazy!? Am I the only one around here who gives a shit about the rules!?" Now back on topic I also tend to really like the soundtrack for Adam Sandler movies... Though I must admit I am not a huge Styx fan (however I do love the song Renegade, featured on the Billy Madison soundtrack). Oh Crap! My geek is showing!

I saw it in a theater in London when it finally made it over there and the place was packed!!! Hugh Dillon was just awesome in the film, great sound track!
