life aquatic is nice

those bowie covers mmmm


just watched

the Darjeeling Ltd. tonight. pretty flipping lovely film, soundtrack by the by, but lovely fillum. yessum.


YES

Life Aquatic is fantastic


Mogwai - Zidane

Considering most of their albums are shit this is excellent - fits the film perfectly.


Assault On Precinct 13

the '76 one by John Carpenter. It's more of a score really than a soundtrack but hey.


^^^

Oh yeh. But all his scores are dynamite.


Friday Night Lights.

My favourite soundtrack.


lost in translation

is a contender


Lost in Translation OST

is terrific.


^ yes!

yes yes yes. I love that film, I love that soundtrack.


one of the best soundtracks IMO...

is for the movie 'Smoke' with Harvey Keitel.

The scene at the end with 'You Dream' by Tom Waits is one of the best endings to a film ever.

The Lost In Translation soundtrack is fantastic too, as is Garden State.


Don't know about best, but

I love the Paris, Texas and the Do The Right Thing original scores.


'KIDS'


Some that come to mind

Fight Club
Run Lola Run
The Big Lebowski


O Brother Where Art Thou

my fave


Eternal Sunshine

aintit


agreed

jon brion = <3
yann tiersens soundtracks to goodbye lenin and amelie are also good
and i love the ratatouille soundtrack by michael giacchino


ooh, that one is lovely.

i'm quite fond of the soundtrack to the Graduate.


Boogie Nights is a great soundtrack,

and is, technically speaking, the best I can think of. The whole damn movie is edited to music!


is trainspotting #2...

too obvious? if so, here are a couple of others:

Velvet Goldmine
Romeo + Juliet
Marie Antoinette


Garden State


Oh

Somebody's already made that joke.


At the minute it's probably

Sunshine by John Murphy. More jaw-dropping than a cack-handed dentist.


Dead Man's Shoes

Adem
Calexico
The Earlies
Richard Hawley
Bonnie 'Prince' Billy
M. Ward
Aphex Twin

The film is rather woo too.


HAIR


Josie And The Pussycats

Spikey Female Fronted Punk Pop at it's best!!


Yes!


Electroma


koyaanisqatsi


this is spinal tap..

obvivously...( i cant spell)


^ Good Shout

'Grosse Pointe Blank'
'Swingers'
'Singles'
'Clerks'
'Dazed & Confused'
'Get Shorty'

And of course, any Tarantino movie.


harold and maude

cat stevens lovliness


kudos on

koyaanisqatsi


Scores,

-The Assassination of Jesse James...
-Punch Drunk Love
-Tideland
-Badlands
-George Washington

Soundtracks,
-All About Lily Chou Chou
-All The Real Girls
-Almost Famous
-Dedication
-Dead Man's Shoes


And shouldn't have forgotten

any of the scores Popul Vuh wrote for Werner Herzog in the 70s and 80s, esp. Aguirre: Der Zorn Gottes, Nosferatu and Cobra Verde, all stunning.


SHORTBUS?

Shortbus is fucking wank.

Punch Drunk Love has an excellent soundtrack.


Away with ye!

Animal Collective/Hidden Cameras in soundtrack. Couldn't ask for more, boy.


second

tarantino soundtracks- they're always good (Pulp Fiction and KillBill2 espec)

Also 187, Storytelling (by B&S) and, of course, The Royal Tenenbaums (sic) and all the classic Morricone badboys.


The Matrix


Stop Making Sense

is that cheating?


Goodfellas


dazed and confused

everytime


oh i forgot

about 'monty python's meaning of life' any soundtrack that can boost a song called 'every sperm is sacred.' gets my vote.


Wicker Man

not that nic cage bullshit though


My fave

I'll probably get totally shot down here, but my vote is definitely for Elizabethtown.

It's about the best soundtrack of Americana I've ever heard.


Scores?

If so The Fountain, Crash and 30 Days Of Night are incredible

just listening to the

Dan in Real Life soundtrack by Sondre Lerche, is bloody marvelous.


Shame the film's so shite.

Shopgirl has a lot of Mark Kozelek/Sun Kil Moon on its soundtrack, but I'd say my favourite is either The Royal Tenenbaums, or Yann Tiersen's work on Goodbye Lenin.


What a bunch of fucking bollocks

The answer is Saturday Night Fever. Gays.
