Ok, really just anything thats on a movie/game/whatever-else-you-can-think-of sound track. (Would be nice if you could give what its from and who made it)

I like E1M1 by Sonic Clang , from the Doom 3 mod Classic Doom 3
The Doom 3 Themesong from Doom 3
Feuer Frei by Rammstein, from xXx (Triple X)
and most of the SW stuff.

What do you like?

Do you mean theme songs? A song written specifically for the movie? Or a song that has become synonomus with that movie? Could a Tv show theme song count? Cause I have different answers for that.

I like the last two Spiderman songs, Vindicated by Dashboard Confessional and the Snow Patrol song. (its a shame that those two don't come up on my shuffle more often.)

My favorite Tv themes would have to be: Hiwaii Five-O, The Simpsons, Saved By The Bell (but hey that's an inside joke in my parts) and last but certainly not least, Gilligan's Island. Love it....

EVERYTHING from the 300! Tyler Bates
Troy by James Horner
Hellboy and Underworld-Evolution, both by Marco Beltrami
and Pirates of the Caribbean by Hans Zimmer

Star Wars
Pirates of The Carribean
The Spider-man Films
Talladega Nights
Hot Rod
The Tick's opening theme
Mustache Song from The Tick episode "That Mustache Feeling"

All of which are good songs or movies with good soundtracks.

Inspector Gadget
The Simpsons
Toxic Avengers (their gross but they still get girls!)
and I love:
The Young Ones
Monkey Magic
You cant do that on Television
Degrassi Jr. High

To many more to mention!

" Hi!"
February 21, 2008 3:38 pm #

Star Wars Theme
Doom Theme

But my favorite song or theme from a movie would be Samuel Barbers - Adagio For Strings from the movie Platoon. It fits the mood of the movie better than any song or theme I have ever heard.

"Trample The Weak, Hurdle The Dead"

What a list! Seems that in my excitement I forgot a few. I see I have someone from the same generation I am... with those last two. I can't believe that you know about Degrassi! I think its cheesetastic.

The Imperial March is my personal theme song! (It's so my ring tone.)

And how could i forget Futurama. Love the show.. and its was my old ringtone. (I switched phones and couldn't get it again.)

A Whale of a Tale?!?  You mean the song as sung by Kirk Douglas in the old movie??  If that's the one you mean..............wow, I'm shocked, a fellow watcher of the classics.  I liked that one to.

Oh indeed I love the classics. They are, after all, what started it all. And the song that Kirk Douglas does, A Whale of a Tale, AWSOME song. I know it by memory and sing it everytime i get my hands on a guitar or anything with strings. Its a funny, really cool song.

Wow, I thought I was the ONLY one who watched the old greats   :D

Yeah, I remember that song, was funny, especially the way he did it.  I was brought up watching old movies like that; that and even older, a LOT older.  Never got into silent movies, but most everything short of that I've seen

WOW.

Those are all good...

MOVIES/TV

Metalocolypse! Dethklock RULES!

I like that one song from Family Guy where Peter sings about the house the Griffins get from Lois's Aunt:
"My God this House is Freakin' Sweet."

I also like the song from Slackers when the three guys are doing that whole best friends montage (including a StarWars-ish, armor and shooting blasters clip) I think its called, "3 is The Magic Number." Also most of the songs written by Jason Shwartzman in the movie.

The Boondocks theme song.

Cowboy Beebop soundtrack, including the episode "Mushroom Hunting."

The Venture Bros.

Harvey Birdman


MUSIC

Rock, punk, Emo, Metal...lately Ive been listening to a lot of Tool.

Good stuff. I'm always looking for new, or different stuff to listen to. Other than Tool who's floating your boat now? Right now for me its Anberlin and Evans Blue.

What comes to my mind is the theme to the Rocky movie that came out in 1979. I am not sure if was Rocky II or
Rocky III. Next to that would be "O' Brother Where Art Thou"'s Big Rock Candy Mountain.

Oooooooooooooo, The Rock; that's a great movie.  Not a Cage fan, but he's been making some pretty good movies lately, and that was one of his best.
