    Note: Should probably be categorized by original soundtracks and compilations.

    Easy Rider
    Last of the Mohicans (Wes Studi was a real bad ass in this one)
    Oh Brother
    Mulholland Drive
    Good Morning VN and Forrest Gump (just because they squeezed in so many tunes and they reminded me of my early AM/FM Transistor Radio days)
    An American Werewolf in London (Mainly the timing of the tunes)
    Hi Fidelity (Cusack was great and neurotic, as usual and Catherine Zeta was hot, as usual).
    Any Michael Mann film
    Any Clint Eastwood film

    You may have but I didn't catch it. He's (Wes Studi) a really good actor- liked him in his many roles as a detective too. :thumbs_up:

    Clint wrote many of the soundtracks to his late 90's-2000's movies. Liked all of them.

    Maybe I am just too old for my time, but the greatest soundtracks of my youth were Rocky 4 and Top Gun.

    Have you seen Spinal Tap II?? I enjoyed it and was happy to see most lived a long life. Rob Reiner and his wife's last work. There are some funny guest appearances.

    I need to add the Footloose soundtrack. Maybe The Lost Boys.


    This is not a quick answer question. Takes some time to think of all the movies and what were some of the better soundtracks.

    And the old grappler in me needs to add to my Favorite's of all time Vision Quest. Still a favorite of mine in the gym; and also, a movie I need to rewatch every 4 or 5 years.
