Ted K (2021) uses Man-Erg by Van der Graaf Generator in one scene And not a film, but there's also a Rush episode of Trailer Park Boys where Alex Lifeson appears as himself, and Jesse from Breaking Bad mentions being a Jethro Tull fan at one point early on
No music but I love this: Armageddon - Oscar (Owen Wilson) says to the psychologist, "l'll tell you one thing that really drives me nuts is people who think that Jethro Tull is just a person in the band." Psychologist: "Who is Jethro Tull?"
The one that made me do the Leonardo DiCaprio was the opening titles of Eternals had Pink Floyd's Time. Also one of the trailers for the first Dune movie had a different version Eclipse by the Floyd as well. Great video Notes!
Yay, some Quebec love ❤ I haven't watched Crazy, but now I want to see it (along with many of the other movies you mentioned!). The movie prog that popped in my head first is the use of "Hocus Pocus" by Focus in "Baby Driver" in a very tense chase scene.

Also not a film but Venture Bros has an episode where Dr Venture introduces Dean to his prog records. The line "when it comes to progressive rock, just say...YES."
In the TV show Fringe, there's two that I know off the top of my head. I've Seen All Good People by Yes and From The Beginning by ELP. I've Seen All Good People is more in your face as From The Beginning is basically radio background. Also, in one of the recent Marvel movies (Eternals I think) has Time by Pink Floyd at some point
You mentioned Buffalo 66 but then didn't mention (even in passing) that it included 2 Yes songs: Sweetness and Heart of the Sunrise. This film was where I first heard the KC original version of Moonchild, having only heard a cover of it by the band Doves.
Interstellar Overdrive was used in the first Doctor Strange movie. It should have been Saucerful of Secrets imo given that the master of the mystic arts is featured on the album of that same name. (Okay, I get it. I'm a dork). Time was also used in the Eternals movie. But then again not a lot of people saw it. I did pop hearing it at my half empty screaning though.
on TV you got George Jefferson dancing to Nektar. and the credits on the video game Control they use Porcupine Tree Fear of a Blank Planet. oh and of course Homeworld (The Ladder) by Yes used in the video game Homeworld.
I only saw the trailer when I went to see wolf of wall street, but some weird 70s-style gangster movie was playing ELO's 10538 Overture. Don't know the movie, chick from hunger games was in it tho

Not exactly prog, but I loved how they used "Screen Shot" by Swans in an episode of DC's Titans
Who can forget that version of Larks Tongues in Aspic playing during the steamy scenes of "Emmanuelle"?
Yes, it was only _very_ highly inspired by that song and was not the actual KC track. I have that soundtrack on cassette.
Ted K (2021) uses Man-Erg by Van der Graaf Generator in one scene
And not a film, but there's also a Rush episode of Trailer Park Boys where Alex Lifeson appears as himself, and Jesse from Breaking Bad mentions being a Jethro Tull fan at one point early on
Hocus Pocus (Focus) in Baby Driver! Incredible editing in that scene. Also, as someone mentioned, Fear of a Blank Planet in Control.
@@SubhadipSen you know, I even had Hocus Pocus by Focus in my notes!! I don't know why I missed it. It also appears in the reboot of RoboCop
No music but I love this:
Armageddon - Oscar (Owen Wilson) says to the psychologist, "l'll tell you one thing that really drives me nuts is people who think that Jethro Tull is just a person in the band."
Psychologist: "Who is Jethro Tull?"
The one that made me do the Leonardo DiCaprio was the opening titles of Eternals had Pink Floyd's Time. Also one of the trailers for the first Dune movie had a different version Eclipse by the Floyd as well. Great video Notes!
You missed Jack Black recommending Yes' "Roundabout" (as the "greatest keyboard solo EVER!") in School of Rock! :D
After I published this, I realized I didn't include it! part two coming soon!
Yay, some Quebec love ❤ I haven't watched Crazy, but now I want to see it (along with many of the other movies you mentioned!).
The movie prog that popped in my head first is the use of "Hocus Pocus" by Focus in "Baby Driver" in a very tense chase scene.
Being from Quebec, I had to do a double take when you gave us a shout out 😱
I gotchu!
In term of prog music used in movies, the first exemple that come to my mind is Aaaaaaaah!, a british "experimental" horror-comedy. Since all the dialogue consist of screams, the music has a rather important role to play in this, even if it's used rather sparingly. All the songs come from the King Crimson ProjeKcts. I suppose it has something to do with the fact that Toyah Wilcox plays one of the main parts.
I think i like the movie. It certainly has many of my favorite actors and actresses, and it's an intriguing piece in this whole horrory comedic scene from the UK i absolutely love (people like Alice Lowe, Steve Oram, Julian Barratt, Sean Reynard/Quentin Smirhes...). But it's one of the weirder ones and certainly not an easy watch. Interesting, though (for me, at least).
Also, quite shocking at times. Violence, creepy family relations, mutilation, agression of all types, all that. Approach with caution.
Mandy rocks. The Nickolas Cage movie Color Out Of Space should have prog.
Mandy was the first one that came to mind for me, great tone setter for the whole film.
As a bass player I HATE when people ask me if I "slappa da bass." They set us back 25 years with that one.
Also not a film but Venture Bros has an episode where Dr Venture introduces Dean to his prog records. The line "when it comes to progressive rock, just say...YES."
In the TV show Fringe, there's two that I know off the top of my head. I've Seen All Good People by Yes and From The Beginning by ELP. I've Seen All Good People is more in your face as From The Beginning is basically radio background.
Also, in one of the recent Marvel movies (Eternals I think) has Time by Pink Floyd at some point
You mentioned Buffalo 66 but then didn't mention (even in passing) that it included 2 Yes songs: Sweetness and Heart of the Sunrise. This film was where I first heard the KC original version of Moonchild, having only heard a cover of it by the band Doves.
Interstellar Overdrive was used in the first Doctor Strange movie. It should have been Saucerful of Secrets imo given that the master of the mystic arts is featured on the album of that same name. (Okay, I get it. I'm a dork). Time was also used in the Eternals movie. But then again not a lot of people saw it. I did pop hearing it at my half empty screaning though.
MANDY: It stars with Starless, it is awesome!!!
on TV you got George Jefferson dancing to Nektar. and the credits on the video game Control they use Porcupine Tree Fear of a Blank Planet. oh and of course Homeworld (The Ladder) by Yes used in the video game Homeworld.
Not a movie, but Fargo Season 5, the very opening of the season is quite proggy... I was very satisfied 😊
Season 2 episode 7 uses Locomotive Breath as well
Lovin' the Bluey shirt!
I only saw the trailer when I went to see wolf of wall street, but some weird 70s-style gangster movie was playing ELO's 10538 Overture. Don't know the movie, chick from hunger games was in it tho
That was American Hustle: ua-cam.com/video/NqgjPRNRDSY/v-deo.htmlsi=UFbxjDcRpSOAVhKE and sadly, another song that didn't end up in the movie :'(
