a movie script ending

there are some songs that can make a moment in a movie that much more amazing. like, the scene in Royal Tenenbaums when Margot steps off the bus and Velvet Underground starts playing? or the last scene in Good Will Hunting when Elliot Smith takes you in to the sunrise?

ive always thought that "talking shit about a pretty sunset" would be a good song to put in a movie... when someone is driving in the rain or something.

i think the new WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE is one of the best uses of a song to go with a movie ive ever seen. the Arcade Fire song "wake up" fits perfectly... evokes emotion, compliments the imagery... makes me that much more excited to see the movie and actually made me like the band more.

i remember seeing the test footage of the movie and being stoked out of my mind, but this trailer made me more excited.

now i just need to download this version of the song...

comabox




i havent had cable in close to 3 years. i dont watch regular television, unless for some reason im at Erakuh's house.

everything i watch is on DVD, which means what me and my family takes in is totally under my control.

i do enjoy watching tv programs on dvd though. watching Big Love season 1 right now.

i miss food network, discovery channel and travel channel, the more "educational" crap. maybe someday. but right now, its an unnecessary cost.

reminds me sometimes of the Econochrist song, "comabox"~
