I love the music in the Mortal Kombat movies n.n The music in the games is SO DULL I WANT TO RIP MY EARS OFF.


I'm listening to Reptile's theme and the Hypnotic House remix of the theme song right now. I love them :love:


I rented the movie so I could watch it with my cousins. We used to watch it when we were little and wrestle on the furniture and karate chop the walls and stuff 'cuz the theme song wound us up like eight pillow cases full of candy!


What's your favorite movie soundtrack :D?

Versus by Nobuhico Morino and The Hithcer(1986) by Mark Isham are some of my favourites.
I'm still trying to find the later at a reasonable price though...:cry:

The Land Before Time. It has great and memorable themes, wonderful use of orchestra and choir, and the title song is quite bittersweet in a good way. It sounds more like a symphony than a movie score, and the good mixing is definitely a plus. :)

Can't name one alone, but O Brother Where Art Thou, The Lord of the Rings (Fellowship), I'm Not There and

Garden State
comes to mind. I'm sure there are a lot more, but I can't remember any more at the moment.

And the Mortal Kombat theme is often played at my flat by Danielle and I. 8-)

Hmm. I've listened to Advent Children's soundtrack the most actually. I guess that must make it my favorite. God help me!

Last of the Mohicans was good.

Gattaca. My other two favorites have been mentioned: Requiem for a Dream and Mononoke.

Also, I really like this one song from The Lion King, I think it's called "This Land", but as for the music with actual singing from that film, no good.

I fell in love with Equilibrium's soundtrack for a long while

And love or hate The Matrix. I think the music was really good

I would also like to add Cowboy Bebop: Knockin on Heaven's Door, Gun Shy, Labyrinth, and Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie.

I'm going to cheat a bit... Macross Plus :cool:

All the Star Wars scores are pretty excellent as are the Indiana Jones ones. Both of those by John Williams who has produced a lot of the 'classic' film themes. I've also got a soft spot for the soundtrack to Goodbye, Lenin by Yann Tiersen (who I believe, also did Amelie). Worth mentioning is The Producers, simply for the song Springtime for Hitler.

Garden State. :P

I second that. The shins are brilliant.

Bastian
08-30-2008, 10:59 PM
The Shins are nice, yes, but Frou Frou on that is WAY better.

ANYWAY, I really like movies scores (the orchestral or whatever) music as a genre a LOT. My favorite composer is Tomas Newman (Angels in America, Erin Brachovich, Finding Nemo, etc). He has his own amazingly unique style. I also really love Harry Gregson-Williams (Narnia movies) and Hishashi Joe (the Miyazaki Ghibli movies). And the soundtracks to the first two NeverEnding Story movies and Labyrinth and Legend (both versions) and . . . on and on. :P

You have excellent taste. :)


There's something inherently disappointing about success.

Every time I hear that line I'm laughing so hard I can never hear Kitty's reply. That and him playing around with the katana.

So you seen any G&S live? Acorn media has a great DVD boxed set. Expensive though.

Topsy Turvey

:eek:OMG someone else who knows this awesome move!!!

It is a great movie, very different to what Mike Leigh usually does as well. Though his other stuff is still very good. But I watched Topsy Turvy one Christmas on TV and it is terrific.

Are you seriously suggesting the more recent version of The Producers is better than the original? Because if you are, I have to strongly disagree.

I liked the original movie and the Broadway show, but the movie of the Broadway show wasn't so great.

If it hasn't been mentioned yet then the soundtrack to O Brother, Where Art Thou? deserves to be in here. I watched it the other night and every song was fantastic.
