Transformers: The Movie (1986).
- Dare
- The Touch
- the awesome Lions cover of the theme
- and of course, Dare to Be Stupid
Not my favorite because I don’t really pick favorites but I remember that forgettable vampire movie, the one with Aaliyah, had a pretty good soundtrack. If you like early 2000s rock.
Not a single mention of How to Train Your Dragon? That OST is like my heroin
Moon by Clint Mansell this soundtrack guided me through hundreds of hours of log reading from support tech days through sysadmin days.
It just falls to the background after a few minutes and becomes trance like.
Natural born killers OST
That Daft Punk Tron: Legacy soundtrack.
Once (2007)
Armarcord
A Clockwork Oarnge
Snatch is a fun one.
π is also very good.
Super Fly, by Curtis Mayfield
When it comes to Blaxploitation soundtracks, Isaac Hayes’s Shaft title track get all the attention, but it’s basically just Ike reading out the elevator pitch for the film over a riff (admittedly, one of the greatest riffs of all time), and the rest of the soundtrack doesn’t hold up nearly as well.
But Super Fly is a whole album’s worth of delving into and exposing the underbelly of life in the big city. A concept album with moving lyrics, great melodies and driving rhythms throughout.
Gladiator is definitely up there. That or LOTR
It’s a close call between Highlander Batman (with Michael Keating) And the blues brothers
It follows. Disasterpeace did an amazing job on it.
Judgment Night - definitely wins in a debate about the biggest disparity between the quality of a film and it’s soundtrack.
Yes, the hip-hop & rock collaboration!
My memory of the film is not so negative, but then:
- I was a sucker for 90s action, especially with a hip-hop angle.
- It’s been three decades since I’ve seen it (but been listening to the soundtrack pretty much ever since).
My favourite mid-90s US heist movie soundtrack was Dead Presidents, a film that didn’t get a sequel but whose soundtrack album was so successful it did!
Admittedly not original compositions, more a “greatest soul hits of the 70s” compilation.
