The Academy Awards are this Sunday so it only seems appropriate that this weekend’s theme is music from the movies.
Share your favorite songs and soundtracks from movies past and present or even clips of your favorite movie scenes.
Here are some that may hopefully be less familiar to some folk:
Brotherhood of Man – How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying
Mean Green Mother From Outer Space – Little Shop of Horrors
The Bug – Hairspray
O Fortuna – Excalibur
Main Title Music – Vertigo
Waiting For the Worms – The Wall
The Artist–Main Theme;
WARNING FOR THE EASILY OFFENDED; EXPLICIT LANGUAGE.
Proof no one can swear like a Scot. Then again I knew a couple Welsh dudes that called me names I never heard of before.
In The Loop (The Best of Malcolm and Jamie)
Tombstone–I’m Your Huckleberry;
I usually don’t like Val Kilmer but he did a great job as Doc Holiday in that movie.
Absolutely. A number of actors have played Holiday, through the years, but Kilmer’s performance just seemed to really nail the character.
Blazing Saddles–Lily Von Shtupp;
Spaceballs–Hello My Baby;
Goodfellas–Now go get your shinebox!
Mean Streets–Be My Baby (The Ronettes);
Theme Song for Taxi Driver;
Theme Song From The Sting;
Forrest Gump–Sweet Home Alabama;
Deconstructing Harry;

One of the funniest scenes ever. “…if I’m lying, may god strike me dead.” “Harry, you’re an atheist!”
The Gael – Last of the Mohicans Theme (Dougie Maclean)

Lisa Gerrard & Hans Zimmer – Gladiator theme
I’ve heard this is an ad libbed line.
That’s what I heard as well. Also, Ford shooting the swordsman was Ford’s idea, “Why doesn’t Indy just shoot him?”
That’s a very funny scene. I remember thinking the same thing, “just shoot the guy!”
Naughty language warning
Who’s the guy that won’t cop out, when there’s danger all about?
“Shaft’s a bad mutha…shut your mouth.
