    Ok, Flash Gordon is great if you take it as it is Campy turned up to 11! Dino De Laurentiis classic!
    Sgt. Peppers could be swept into the dustbin of history and the two people who liked it would be sad. But some of the best Beatles covers ever!
    I'd like to add, Red Planet soundtrack. Its a great soundtrack. I actually play it for background when we play Catan

      I will have a listen to that red planet soundtrack- I hate to admit that when I was a younger fella I kind of liked the Sgt Peppers movie- years past and I decided to watch it again - now I remember why I quit taking hard drugs 🤔😉😁😳

      @@graybeardsnation I remembered after I was driving around today that on the 20th anniversary of Sgt. Pepper's on WGN they played the movie, at 9pm new they began the newscast "It was 20 years ago today Sgt. Pepper's was released" ( I was 12) The next day I was shopping with my mom and I found, what I thought, was the soundtrack. It was the Beatles! And as Ole' Ben Kenobi said "you've taken your first step into a larger world". Been a fan of the Beatles ever since 👍😁

    Spawn: The Album - some collaborations are better than others, but definitely concept of the album stands out.

    How about The Keep? Not a terrible movie but definitely not one of Michael Manns best, although the soundtrack is killer. The synth juxtaposed with the historical setting sets a great mood.

    You missed a big one by not mentioning Xanadu. ELO, Cliff Richard and Olivia Newton John with The Tubes singing songs such as Suddenly, Magic, Don't walk away, I'm alive and Suspended in time.

      Ian Macdonald is one of my favorite musicians. Any relation? Founding member of Foreigner, King Crimson, Mcdonald / Giles, etc.....And yes, that soundtrack definitely far outshined the movie!!!!!

    Batman Forever (95) - PJ Harvey, The Flaming Lips, U2! Jim Carey and Tommy Lee Jones made it watchable, but still a tough movie to sit through

    • @graybeardsnation
      @graybeardsnation  6 місяців тому +1

      good point out! - that movie drags tail - the soundtrack is decent - nice thing about soundtracks in general is you can pick the CD or LP pretty cheap and get a nice compilation of tunes - thanks for watching 😁😉🤟🏻

    I know some like it, but I think it was just Sean Penn Oscar bait, The "I Am Sam" soundtrack had some really great Beatles covers by 90's grunge artists.
