So many good questions to ask, so little time.
What's your favourite movie soundtrack?
At the moment I'm in love with the The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring soundtrack and the Raiders of the Lost Ark soundtrack
but my favourite is the ever immortal Harry Potter Soundtrack.
The Commitments. Bringing Soul to Dublin~~
Or perhaps The Lion King, or Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy.
The Hunger Games track
Two favorites I have are Top Gun and Flashdance. They contain some of my favorite songs! The original Fame, Grease, and Saturday Night Fever soundtracks are great too but I only own Fame.
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind springs to mind. Jon Brion is a genius.
this is a GREAT thread! a little off topic, but my favourite TV soundtrack is definitely the OC. it turned me on to a lot of alternative music which i now listen to and cherish.
in terms of movies... well, i really like the friday night lights s/t, which was curated and put together by explosions in the sky. even own it on vinyl!
Not an original soundtrack but 500 Days (of Summer) was great for the film =]
