Michael Madsen doing a shuffle step while advancing toward a cop tied up and taped mouthed sitting in a chair. Madsen just so happened to be holding a straight razor and you knew thangz was going to get bad for the officer in short fashion. Tarentino has been pretty masterful at having classic rock and Motown as such an integral part of his movies.

That was gonna be mine, damnit!

Can't believe I did not think of that one.  Apacolypse Now is one of my all-time favorte movies.  

Well you're in 2nd place for fandom.  I had a friend who put a boom box in front of the TV and taped the entire movie on cassettes and we used to have to listen to it when he drove.

Lots of damn good examples here.  Kind of requires you see the rest of the movie, but this 2001 anime remake of the classic metropolis has a beautifully put together ending that incorporates Ray Charles' I Cant Stop Loving You.  Really good movie, and I am in no way into a lot of anime type stuff.  For the time it was put out, the animations are really crisp.


~45 build up before Ray gets dropped in this clip.  Just throwing it out there.

This is a damn good call 'Lil MB.  Good use of your 2nd post buddy.

I love this song in Varsity Blues. 


That's another movie with a great soundtrack!

The Chain/ Fleetwood Mac/Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2

Great, and I mean great scene! One of the best in the movie.

It could be worse...   at least he didn't stand out in front of your house with it.

Actually someone should have mentioned this scene earlier.  That is a classic.

The whole movie is really good.  Much more than just another teenage fluff piece.
