Guest Posted June 10, 2002 Report Posted June 10, 2002 What is your favorite soundtrack to a movie? I don't really have a favorite yet but I do kind of like the Little Nicky one, it's got alot of songs that I like by bands that I wouldn't buy the CD of.
Guest treble charged Posted June 10, 2002 Report Posted June 10, 2002 I like the Fubar soundtrack, personally.
Guest Shaved Bear Posted June 10, 2002 Report Posted June 10, 2002 South Park Soundtrack,i can always listen to that
Guest converge241 Posted June 10, 2002 Report Posted June 10, 2002 the crow snatch trainspotting 1 and 2 traffic boiler room end of days (well half of it really) Judgment Night (soooooooooo gooooooood) Rocky Horror picture show from dusk till dawn
Guest The Man in Blak Posted June 10, 2002 Report Posted June 10, 2002 Best Rock Soundtrack: The Crow (Runner Up: The Matrix, Singles) Best Mix of Styles: Lost Highway Best Period-Piece Soundtrack: O Brother, Where Art Thou (Runner Up: Forrest Gump) Best Symphonic: 2001 - A Space Odyssey (Runner Up: Braveheart)
Guest CoreyLazarus416 Posted June 10, 2002 Report Posted June 10, 2002 Ghost Of Mars, Tromeo & Juliet, The Crow, and Spawn are fucking killer... Rock Star has its moments...mainly the Steel Dragon originals ("Wasted Generation" owns all).
Guest Mark4steamboat Posted June 11, 2002 Report Posted June 11, 2002 Spawn and Queen of the Damned are some killer soundtracks.
Guest Spaceman Spiff Posted June 11, 2002 Report Posted June 11, 2002 The Crow Singles Natural Born Killers Star Wars, ESB, and ROTJ Special Edition soundtracks
Guest razazteca Posted June 11, 2002 Report Posted June 11, 2002 Judgement Night Spawn Bride of Chucky Crow So Fucking What SFW Chef Aid Beavis & Butthead Experience Sunset Park Nothing to Lose Bad Boys Space Jam
Guest evenflowDDT Posted June 11, 2002 Report Posted June 11, 2002 Even though it can get a little stale sometimes, I always liked the soundtrack for Permanent Midnight. Spawn is another great soundtrack, but I don't like it anywhere near as much as I used to. I also must say that O Brother, Where Art Thou's soundtrack is AWESOME!
Guest raptor Posted June 11, 2002 Report Posted June 11, 2002 The only soundtrack I own is Spider-Man, so i'd have to say it's my favorite.
Guest Renegade Posted June 11, 2002 Report Posted June 11, 2002 Res evil, anything with Static-X on it gets a plus from me
Guest Posted June 11, 2002 Report Posted June 11, 2002 I'm not much of a fan of soundtracks. Too many of them are just a collection of random songs, which would be fine, but since most soundtracks are aimed to move the highest number of units possible, the music on them does nothing for me. Soundtracks work on one of two levels: 1) as a companion piece to the movie, reminding you of many of them key moments from the film, all the while enjoying the music in its own right. My favorite soundtrack in this category would be Rushmore; 2) as a standalone album. The film did not need to be enjoyed or even seen in order to like the album. Soundtracks of the last ten years tend to fall largely into this category. Out of all the soundtracks I own--which isn't very much--the only one I have in which I like the album immensely but care little for the film is Velvet Goldmine. The movie is a bland Citizen Kane ripoff, but oh, 70+ minutes of great 70s glam rock and some wonderful, newly recorded 70s-style glam is a thing to behold. I love that disc. I dare say it was one of the best albums of 1998.
Guest converge241 Posted June 11, 2002 Report Posted June 11, 2002 damn, i have to add singles clockwork orange
Guest Posted June 11, 2002 Report Posted June 11, 2002 a touch of evil dead man akira and if i could find the soundtrack to 'tokyo drifter' i would listen to it all day
Guest Kinetic Posted June 12, 2002 Report Posted June 12, 2002 I second the Rushmore mention. I also feel compelled to mention The Graduate, in so far as a great movie being made even better by the soundtrack behind it. I haven't heard the recent Belle and Sebastian ("Storytelling") or Badly Drawn Boy ("About A Boy") discs, so I can't comment on those. They seem like safe enough bets, given who was involved. The only soundtrack I currently own is Trainspotting and I'm not too terribly fond of that.
Guest phoenixrising Posted June 12, 2002 Report Posted June 12, 2002 Never saw the Godzilla movie but loved the soundtrack. It also contains the only good song Puff Daddy ever did - and he needed Jimmy Page's help to do it. I also like the MI:2 soundtrack, and the soundtrack I have that has all the James Bond theme songs, from Dr. No to Tomorrow Never Dies. A quick look at my CD rack says the name is "The Best of 007 James Bond".
Guest evenflowDDT Posted June 13, 2002 Report Posted June 13, 2002 Oh... how could I forget about the soundtrack to end all soundtracks... Saturday Night Fever! Seriously... that's a great album, I just wish I owned it on CD so I could listen to it more often... damn vinyls...
Guest shlidgn90 Posted June 13, 2002 Report Posted June 13, 2002 i liked the score for requeim for a dream, and shindler's list. my fav soundtrack is for magnolia. best hip hop sdtk would be above the rim(highlight of west coat rap). sdtks are best when all the songs compliment the movie.
Guest dreamer420 Posted June 13, 2002 Report Posted June 13, 2002 godzilla wayne's world pulp fiction reservoir dogs jackie brown from dusk till dawn how high
Guest ant_7000 Posted June 13, 2002 Report Posted June 13, 2002 Above the Rim, Friday, and Dead Presidents
Guest evenflowDDT Posted June 14, 2002 Report Posted June 14, 2002 Another one I forgot is the original TV soundtrack for "The X-Files". It's got Soul Coughing, Frank Black, Foo Fighters, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Danzig, and lots of other good stuff. Hell, if PM Dawn put good tracks on it, you know it's something special. It's surprisingly dark, as the show was in those early days (it was released in 1996).
Guest saturnmark4life Posted June 14, 2002 Report Posted June 14, 2002 Frank Black's on the X files soundtrack?!? Anyways, as they go, TRANSFORMERS~!
Guest dreamer420 Posted June 15, 2002 Report Posted June 15, 2002 friday and next friday are both pretty good too. if you like ice cube and mack 10 then i would say they are must gets.
Guest godthedog Posted June 16, 2002 Report Posted June 16, 2002 i gotta mention 'pulp fiction', for sheer energy. my favorite though, far and away, is 'lost highway'. the first time i bought the cd, my player actually fucked up and after the last track it skipped back to the 2nd track (which makes so much sense with the movie that it's scary). i originally thought the cd was gimmicked that way, but oh well. would've been cool if it was. i was very disappointed about the missing track (this mortal coil's 'song to the siren'), which is EASILY the best fucking song in the movie; but i picked up this mortal coil's album & burned a new version of the soundtrack with 'song to the siren' on it. now it holds its own against anything in my collection.
