Ganny McVagflaps Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 What do ya'll think is the best soundtrack ever? I was thinking this might be an interestin' topic and hopefully it won't end with a hundred "PULP FICTION"s inna row. My money is on "Rushmore". It's got Making Time by Creation, Concrete & Clay by Unit 4 + 2, Nothing In This World Can Stop Me Worrin' Bout That Girl by The Kinks, Here Comes My Baby and The Wind by Cat Stevens, Oh Yoko by John Lennon, Ooh La La by The Faces and what I think is the piece de resistance A Quick One While He's Away by The Who. On top of all those songs and a couple others, Mark Mothersbuagh's score is there too and is pretty damn good. So go out and buy it damn it!! It's worth all your hard earned (or stolen) money. Besides that I kinda like the "Pulp Fiction" soundtrack.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Jax Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 duh...Pulp Fiction.... American Graffiti's is good, as is Groose Point Blank's. Purple Rain is technically a movie soundtrack, so I'm going with that as my all-time favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 The Crow, obviously...The Saint has good techno on it, as did both Trainspotting cuts...uhm...i like Horner on Braveheart, but that might just be me (if were talkin instrumentals, Requiem for a Dream is fun). Rap-wise, Above the Rim was memorable, odd ones like Space Jam and Street Fighter were surprisingly good. Other rock stuff....Last Action Hero had some good ones...Does the Graduate with Simon & Garfunkl count? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JunkerSeed Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 SOme great ones out there, the crow, spawn, natural born killers, and lost highway all have amazing industrial/gothic/hard stuff on em. American werewoolf in paris was a shit flick but that soundtrack got me into a lot of great alternative bands that I wouldn't have known about otherwise. Stuff on that includes Cake, Buch, Caroline's spine, fastball, Sucide Machines, a bunch more. The Saint is very good like nick said. The Matrix had a fine soundtrack, lots of industrial on that too. Magnolia has a fucking great soundtrack mostly by Aimee Mann (I LOVE aimee mann, great folk/pop/rock stuff) and a couple supertramp tracks. The I am Sam soundtrack is great, big, ambitious thing that's nothin but beatles covers by Eddie vedder, sarah Mclaughlin, aimee mann, black crowes, I could list em forever. At least somehting good came out of that movie... Wes Anderson looks to have fine taste in stuff, the soundtrack's to rushmore and royal tenenbaums are full of cool stuff, older stuff usually, but obscure enough so it's not a greatest hits cd. Stuff like almost famous, forrest gump and the like are good, but its a whos who of classic rock, so I wouldnt go for those... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Jax Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 Oh, best Beatles cover on I Am Sam soundtrack: Revolution by Grandaddy. I would never have thought a mellow acoustic version of Revolution could even be decent, but Grandaddy's version is INCREDIBLE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganny McVagflaps Posted March 29, 2003 Author Share Posted March 29, 2003 I'm gonna toss in "Glory Daze" (awful movie, great soundtrack). It had The Mr. T eXperience, Sublime, NoFx, Hepcat, The Billy Nayer Show and the Vandals did the score. It's a great album to fuck on at a party.

RobitussinEF Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 I liked Any Given Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganny McVagflaps Posted March 29, 2003 Author Share Posted March 29, 2003 Go actually has a pretty damn good soundtrack. I'm not really big on 'dance music' though. Wyld Style has some great old skool hip-hop on it and well worth a look for anyone into that sheat. I also wanna give Mallrats an honorable mention just for the fact it has SUZANNE by Weezer on it. That songs so good it makes it a must have. "Even Izzy, Slash and Axl Rose When I call you put 'em all on hold" Genius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deacon Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 I'd agree with most of them and add on The Scorpion King(S.O.A.D, Drowning Pool, P.O.D, Mushroomhead) and how can you forget Saturday Night Fever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spongebob Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 The only one that comes to mind is Spiderman. It had some damn good songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganny McVagflaps Posted March 30, 2003 Author Share Posted March 30, 2003 I gotta give a dishonorable mention to DAREDEVIL. Besides "Lap Dance" by N*E*R*D it was awful. Did anyone get a load of the song they were playing as Matt and Elekta were getting down and dirty. Painful shit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Jax Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 and how can you forget Saturday Night Fever I actually remembered it, that's why it went unmentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
