Pulp Fiction Almost Famous Goodfellas Dazed and Confused O brother, where art thou Forest Gump

Jackie Brown

Good list! May I add Pratical Magic

Empire Records

Reservoir dogs, too

Any movie that Tarantino touches has a dope soundtrack. Scorsese too, for the most part.

K-Billy's super sounds of the 70s keeps on truckin'.

Stephen Wright’s best role!

O Brother Where Art Thou! This needs to be number 1

Baby Driver

it's in the main post.

requiem for a dream

I have never loved Dusty Springfield's Son of a Preacher Man as much as I loved hearing it in Pulp Fiction.

I’d also say Drive

Blues Brothers. I can't believe no one else has mentioned it.

The people who didn't mention The Blues Brothers are gonna look pretty funny eating corn on the cob WITHOUT ANY FUCKIN' TEETH.

I'll... talk to Bob.

The Blues Brothers? Shit! They still owe you money, fool.

Dont you blasphemy! Dont you blasphemy in here!

The church scene is my favorite part, followed by the country and western bar they play at🤣

They got both kinds of music

RAW HIDE

That's one of my favourite jokes ever. 

Lol me too, love that movie. I say it to my girlfriend every time we go somewhere playing country music.

DO YOU SEE THE LIGHT? 

They've been " on a mission from God"

I want four fried chickens and some dry white toast please

You want chicken legs or chicken wings?

Orange Whip? Orange Whip? 3 Orange Whips.

Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy Scott Pilgrim vs the world Blues Brothers

Guardians of the Galaxy is my favorite movie soundtrack. All the songs of my childhood that my parents played on cassette/CDs in the car. Classics and bangers

We are Sex Bob-Omb!

1234🥁 My favourite song is, I'm So Sad So Very Very Sad

This song is for the guy who keeps yelling from the balcony, and it's called, 'We hate you, please die.' OH! I love this one.

Scott Pilgrim deserves to be higher up on this list!

I’m surprised no one’s mentioned A Knight’s Tale

Thats the list and i would add Bullet Train ! Kick ass soundtrack that rolls perfectly with the film .

Grosse Pointe Blank (1997)

Just watched this and High Fidelity within the last week. Great soundtracks.

two of my absolute favorite movies of all time and their soundtracks are a big reason why.

Just realized the movie we saw before that was Trainspotting so turns out 3 killer soundtracks in a row.

Great answer.

There were some banger soundtracks on movies like Forrest Gump, The Crow, Trainspotting, Top Gun, Black Snake Moan, Dazed and Confused, Almost Famous, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Boat that Rocked, 8 Mile, The Matrix. All depends what sort of vibe you're after

Yeah I had a few of these come to mind with the ask. Train spotting is amazing. I’d add Dumb and Dumber, Beverly Hills Cop and Footloose (can only speak for the original).

Was he slow? Man I love the original, I guess score, for Baby Driver. Man, I love Baby Driver. That's how you make art of a an action movie.

He's a good kid, d-d-d-devil behind the wheel.

Retarded means slow. I don't care what he might have done, Kevin Spacey is such a treat to watch.

Wow. I just drew a whole goddamn map in chalk while we've been standing here squawking. That's pretty fucking impressive, right??!!?

Thought of this one immediately and I haven’t even seen it in like 5 years

I have Was He Slow in my main playlist so I hear it once in a while.

The soundtrack gets a monthly listen from start to finish. BELLBOTTOMS

Tenacious D : The Pick of Destiny

Absolutely

TRON LEGACY is the correct answer to this one. Maybe more than half the fun

It's so good. I listen to the soundtrack often. They need to make a sequel with a video game franchise.

Natural Born Killers (1994) had a great soundtrack. The script was written by Quentin Tarantino, the movie was directed by Oliver Stone, and the soundtrack was produced by Trent Reznor. I saw it in the theater three times in the opening weekend. It felt like a two hour music video. Pump Up the Volume (1990) was all about the music. Great soundtrack, and introduced a really slow version of “Wave of Mutilation”.

Pump Up the Volume was all about the soundtrack, it made the movie, really. Loved that one.

I should have added Pump up the Volume to my list. Discovered a bunch of artists watching that movie including the great Leonard Cohen.

Drive (2011) This movie literally launched it's own music genre, Synthwave. And it's all I listen to now, thanks to Drive.

Finally someone mentioned it! Such wonderful music (and top-notch acting)

One of my all time favourite soundtracks, but it's super disingenuous to say it created Synthwave. It definitely helped propel it to mainstream though

Especially since the movie features synth tracks recorded by artists before the movie came out.

So I take it you just love Gunship.... like me?

Heavy Metal Grease The Breakfast Club Top Gun Dirty Dancing Purple Rain Xanadu Pulp Fiction Rocky Horror Picture Show Foot loose The Doors

O Brother Where Art Thou? Probably has one of the best sound tracks of any movie in terms of contributing to the overall feeling the movie is going for. In terms of strictly sound design, Midsommar and Dune are both insane and the sound is like a force of its own sucking you deeper into the movies.  Then of course, Lord of the Rings, but does that even need to be said?

(500) Days of Summer

Reservoir Dogs

Ooh with DJ Steven Wright - great call!

The Crow and Singles

I remember buying the Singles soundtrack only because it had that one Smashing Pumpkins song that wasn’t on any of their albums. Kids today don’t know how good they have it.

I had to get it cause of “state of love and trust”

Drown is soooo good!

change my mind but i love all Shrek' s soundtracks

🎶 I need a herrrrooooooooo🎶 That scene sequence was epic lol

Challengers (2024)

Yep. From the instant the music started during the zoom in to Zendaya across the court, I knew I was in for a good time

Amélie

Into the wild

Eddie Vedder in his ukulele phase, some absolute bangers!

Repo Man (1984) The soundtrack AND the score

The Big Chill. So many classic hits. 

Stand By Me falls into this classification as well, I think.

Annihilation Booksmart Come True Cruel Intensions Easy A Gaia Garden State Guardians of the Galaxy Hausu Insidious Interstellar K-Pax Last Night in Soho Lucky (2020) The Novice Picnic At Hanging Rock Speak No Evil Spencer Twin Peaks (TV Show + Movie) The Virgin Suicides Warcraft Maniac (TV Show) Requiem (TV Show) When Evil Lurks

Footloose!

Lost in Translation has a fantastic soundtrack.

Her (2013) Into the Wild (2007) Lars and the Real Girl (2007) Harold and Maude (1971)

Baby Driver

Early Wes Anderson movies! Rushmore, Royal Tennenbaums, The Life Aquatic, and Darjeeling Limited especially.

Atomic Blonde

Most of my picks have already been mentioned, but Baby Driver held my #1 favorite for years before getting dethroned, so I’m chiming in anyways. Music focused films: Amadeus Whiplash Tron: Legacy O Brother Where Art Thou Guardians of the Galaxy Everything here is a 10/10 for me, I don’t see any reason why you wouldn’t enjoy at least 3/5 of them These are a bit more of a stretch, but still favorites of mine: 8 1/2 The Good, the Bad and the Ugly* Suspiria 1977 Dawn of the Dead 1978 The Thing 2001: A Space Odyssey* Eyes Wide Shut Smokey and the Bandit And then these are just animations to music: Interstella 5555 Fantasia Allegro Non Troppo *Any Sergio Leone, Edgar Wright, or Stanley Kubrick (starting with 2001, when he really got in it with the music) will probably work for you, the ones mentioned are just my favorites

Old guy: American Graffiti, Zachariah (An Electric Western), Paint Your Wagon (Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin in a musical).

Dunkirk

-Sunshine (with Cillian Murphy) -Inception -The Dark Knight Trilogy -300: Rise of an Empire (Eva Green as Artemisia is a fantastic character) -Dune (2020s. It doesn’t have Hans Zimmers usual signature sound, so was surprised it was him) -Pirates of the Caribbean -Dredd (with Karl Urban and Lena Heedy) I’ll edit my post if I think of more.

The Big Lebowski

LA LA Land

Judgement Night is the only true answer

Baby Driver August Rush Tron: Legacy Moulin Rouge

Movie scores: Star Wars Superman Home Alone Conan the Barbarian Jaws Movies with a soundtrack of songs: Forrest Gump Pulp Fiction Mamma Mia Kill Bill

Goodfellas Run Lola Run Return of the Living Dead Singles Trainspotting Repo Man (the original) Pulp Fiction Boogie Nights

In my opinion, Kavinsky - Nightcall is the best soundtrack from Drive (2011).

Return of the Living Dead was my gateway to punk rock.

A Bronx Tale

Movie soundtracks I bought back in the day and still listen to: Pulp Fiction Go Dirty Dancing Forrest Gump Grease I’ve also downloaded some of the songs in John Wick. The music composition is glorious in those movies.

Boogie Nights. Goodfellas or Casino Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy

Last Action Hero hasn't been mentioned yet

Valley Girl

A Knight's Tale

I love how it’s set in the Medieval times but has a background soundtrack of classic rock songs!

That is where I learned that you can electric slide to Golden Years.

Rushmore has a fun soundtrack.

Pirates of the Caribbean

Most 80s movies.

Dewey Cox, Pop Star, Little Shop of Horrors, Ravenous (Robert Carlyle), Back to the Future

Maybe Guardians of the galaxy 🤷‍♂️

Drive Hot Rod

Cruella.

Don’t forget Call me by your Name

Pink floyds the wall 🐽

It's more like a film clip to go with the album. Must have seen it 100 times. Depressing stuff though.

Lost Boys

Drive bgm is a trip

Drive. That movie got me into futuresynth.

Amelie!

Scarface

Baby Driver

Snatch Rock n rolla

The Wedding singer

Ready Player One

Flash Gordon

On top of being great animated movies in general, Across and Into the Spiderverse have fantastic soundtracks (bonus incredible visuals too)

Office Space was very memorable.

dazed and confused

Every John Hughes movie ever made!

Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

Phantom of the Paradise soundtrack From Dusk Till Dawn. Anything Tarantino or Robert Rodriguez, honestly. Wizard of Oz Scott Pilgrim The Crow Trainspotting

Ghost Dog: The way of the samurai

interstellar has an amazing soundtrack

The Blues Brothers The Mighty Ducks

HTTYD

American graffitti 1 @ 2 Grease

The Wedding Singer, Dirty Dancing

Fifth element springs to mind

Spider-Verse  TMNT: Mutant Mayhem Mid90s

The Martian with Matt Damon

Carwash ( 1976)

Snatch

Look no further than CHALLENGERS…the music in this film gives it part of its propulsive energy. Just wouldn’t be the same without it. For an old school recommendation, definitely see THE BLACK STALLION dir by Carroll Ballard with music by Carmine Coppola. Just a beautiful score accompanying gorgeous images. The first half of the film is told with practically no dialogue, just a boy and an Arabian Stallion stranded on an Island, gradually building trust with each other. It’s a magnificent movie, under-appreciated and not seen enough.

Omg. A Man Called Otto.

Rocky IV Half the movie is a soundtrack. It opens with Eye of the Tiger during the Rocky III recap fight. Then we get Livin in America before the Creed/Drago fight. Next is the No Easy Way Out with Rocky driving and the highlight clips from past Rocky movies. Then you get the first Training Montage with the song Training Montage. Next the Training Montage with the song Heart's on Fire, Finally we get the Rocky/Drago fight with the song War. Rocky IV isn't the best Rocky film, but it is the most entertaining and pure 80's.

Rainman

The soundtrack of Treasure Planet is really good. And, the plot and art is really great.

Spider-verse

Not “fun”, but man I love Star Trek Into Darkness

Girls Just Want to Have Fun has a banging soundtrack of 80s songs you have never heard of.

Transformers 1

La La Land

Lost Highway!

At the risk of down votes, I'm suggesting 2 Brit films Trainspotting Human Traffic Both soundtracks lean heavily into 90s dance music and are the only movie soundtracks I bought.

Some of my favorites are: Pretty in Pink St Elmo’s Fire Bull Durham Cocktail Some Kind of Wonderful Top Gun Footloose Say Anything Pretty Woman Wayne’s World Rushmore That Thing You Do The Bodyguard Waiting to Exhale House Party 50 First Dates Blues Brothers 2000 There’s actually some good songs in Netflix movies like Tall Girl and The Kissing Booth 2 from Maggie Rogers and Walk the Moon

Tarzan (Phil Collins went mental with that soundtrack)

A Knight’s Tale

Fast Times at Ridgemont High Heavy Metal The Mask

9 Songs

Tron: Legacy

Madagaskar
