Bladerunner?

Great soundtrack.

For me it's either Almost Famous or Singles... Or any other film by Cameron Crowe for that matter.

Pump Up The Volume also had a good soundtrack

Yes, Pump Up The Volume is another good call, there's loads of great music in the film that isn't even on the soundtrack album like The Descendants and The Beastie Boys.

[HUW JONES]

Natural born killers.
Thankyou Trent Reznor....
....and Get Carter as mentioned above..
....and American Beauty.

How could i forget Forrest Gump! Some classic 60s tunes on there

Great Shout!

Human Traffic for the danceheads amongst us. Its a great selection.

Of course anything by Tarantino & Ritchie is pretty good, the dialogue excerpts are great.

And Primal Screams' album, Vanishing Point, inspired by the film of the same name. Great Sound, Great Film.

From Dusk Till Dawn soundtrack is a hoot!

Road To Perdition is very good, and the film is an excellent example of Tom Hanks playing a darker character than his usual fare.

[captainzep]

The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Not a perfect film by any means but typical Wes Anderson weird fun.

One of the highlights being Seu Jorge singing a Portuguese acoustic version of Life on Mars.
