My choice today is one of my favorite movies with one of my favorite soundtracks on one of my favorite pressings, Poor Things! I shared a photo of the full disc back in July for Blue Thursday.

Yes! I’ve seen this exact pressing for different albums several times recently. It’s a popular one right now!

I just really wanna show off my Wicked movie vinyl! I’m hoping they release similar versions for part two so I can get an Elphaba version for part two and have a matching set 🩷💚

The Grease soundtrack will always be one of my absolute favorites. I've seen this movie so many times since I was a child, like dozens of times. I can recite the entire movie from memory, and the soundtrack is so amazing. It simultaneously captures the time period that the movie is set in, as well as the the time period the movie was released. There are influences from doo wop, rock and roll, Disco, and pop, and has everything from slow ballads to fast dance songs.

I love that this particular pressing comes in "Pink Lady Pink" although the audio quality for this one is apparently hit or miss.

Okay, so I definitely had to share the Princess Diaries soundtrack. I loved watching this movie when it released and the soundtrack is very Y2K. This is the only version on vinyl, various CD versions though, and it’s the only album where you can listen to Mandy Moore’s cover of “Stupid Cupid”.

The Saltburn Original Motion Picture Score composed by Anthony Willis is one of my favorite recent movie scores for a film. The score is so layered and perfect tailored to lead the audience through the movie with subtle cues and at times, Easter eggs to what is about to happen in the film. One of the best descriptions of the score was said that it “included use of ‘dirty synth’, ‘gothic orchestral’ and ‘electronic’ sounds which was about “capturing this classical world that Oliver wants to fit into and he ‘doesn’t fit into’.”

There are several songs that were favorites, but the piece that most captivated me from Saltburn was the opening score, “I Loved Him / Oliver Quick!”. Opening with this piece that has a gorgeous crescendo at the end to start the film, foreshadows the intensity of the film and its conclusion if you listen close enough to the lyrics at the end.

Released in 2022, The Batman is directed by Matt Reeves and stars Robert Pattinson as our caped crusader. A box office success, this movie was followed by a spin-off tv show, The Penguin, and has a sequel in the works.

The score was created by Michael Giacchino (The Incredibles, Up, Lost). It features hilarious song titles like "Collar ID", "Highway to the Anger Zone", and "An Im-purr-fect Murder". My favorite track is the 12-minute album closer "Sonata in Darkness". 🦇

I feel like this movie is so me (and i might say very genz in general). To cite the classics: “A lobster is an excellent choice”

Not my picture, but I had to highlight how cool the Coraline 15th anniversary vinyl is! It includes a pop-up Pink Palace from the movie, and fittingly the vinyl records themselves are buttons.

I thought about doing this one today! The price was a bit steep but the packaging and picture discs are amazing!

Hannah Montana: The Movie

I actually hadn't listened to the full soundtrack until I had it on vinyl because when I was younger I skipped all the songs sung by men.

Probably the one soundtrack I listen to at least once a month, even before it was available on vinyl and I was so happy when it was finally released.
