If you scroll down, you can hear songs from the new soundtrack. Sally's Song (by Fiona Apple) is awesome, and What's This? (I don't know who does it) is really nice too.

I went to see it today too. The What's This? song is my favorite. 8 ) Though I was really sad, I couldn't watch the whole movie because they were having trouble with the electricity in the theatre I was in and had to stop playing the movie. *tear* /_\ Steph says booooooo... 8 ( I wanted to see the whole thing. The 3D-ness was so sweet as well as the music!

I've loved this movie since I saw it in the theater as a kid! The Fiona Apple cover song is just awesome. :D

Any idea if they're releasing the soundtrack to this?

[edit] NM, just saw the buy soundtrack link on myspace. [/edit]

Oh wow, that fallout boy remake is pretty damn good. I wish they'd try to emulate the attitude in their own "music."

Edit: All of those, especially manson's are fantastic. I will likely be purchasing this sound track. You have no idea how big of a deal that is for me: I've purchased 4 sound tracks in my life: LotRs and Armageddons.

Pffft! You should have invited me! Even if in hindsight I wouldn't have seen it all just like you. :P

Your math kills god.
I have the original soundtrack already (Elfman f'thagn!) and I'd love to have this. Sounds awesome.
Manson... kooky.

-[edit]It just occured to me that there's three LotR movies, thus being 3+1 equaling... uh, four.

There are some good soundtracks out there besides this one.

Here are some of my favorites:

Metoroporisu
Anime version of Metropolis, very jazzy, though it was sadly lacking one song from the movie, Ray Charles doing "I Can't Stop Loving You."

Natural Born Killers
Produced by Trent Reznor, it ranges from Bob Dylan and Patsy Cline, to L7, NIN and Leonard Cohen. Also has an early soundtrack appearance of Juliette Lewis before she formed her band.

Trainspotting
Great sampling of dance and trance music, the first CD is better than the second. This is the first place I heard Elastica, and I still like them and lots of others from this cd.

Fight Club
Dust Brothers' very atmospheric and interesting to listen to soundtrack. Includes a track of Brad Pitt's rant about unique snowflakes from the film.

Being John Malkovich
If you're into classical-esque soundtracks, this one is superb. It was composed by Carter Burwell, who worked on tons of other soundtracks, such as Fargo, A Knight's Tale, The Hudsucker Proxy, etc. It also includes two tracks from Bjork I haven't heard elsewhere and an odd mix of John Malkovich saying his own name.

Romeo + Juliet
The first CD of this is a good cross section of the 90s music scene at the time, and includes the Cardigans' big hit "Love Fool," and a great song by Radiohead. The second CD is the score, with some of the dialogue, and is, in my opinion, really representative of the over-the-top melodramatic style of the movie.

Basquiat
An artist pseudo-biography film, this supposedly really catches his feeling well - though I'm not sure about that, since his work seemed to be heavily influenced by jazz and there isn't a single jazz track. At any rate, it's a great selection of music that includes PJ Harvey, Tom Waits, Joy Division, David Bowie, and others and is definitely worth a listen even if you haven't seen the movie.

Tsotsi
Interesting selection of South African hip-hop, a style called kwaito (yeah I had to look it up). A good introduction to the genre, and worth checking out if just for "Matofotofo" by Pitch Black Afro, which has a great beat and transition from the sampled "I Put a Spell on You."

And of course, I love pretty much anything by Cirque du Soleil. I'd say in most cases you don't even have to see, much less enjoy, the related movie to enjoy the above soundtracks.

ah man, Oogie Boogie was one scary mutha, I wouldn't want to see him in 3D.

Metropolis had an excellent soundtrack.

I have soundtracks of:

Ergo Proxy (Both imported)
.hack//SIGN (And the games, it's part of the box set)
Titan A.E. (great music)
Noir (The anime soundtrack)
Star Wars Ep1 soundtrack
Myst III: Exile soundtrack (GREAT music)
Riven soundtrack (Even better than Myst III)

And probably a couple more I am forgetting.

I remember seeing this in the theatre as a small child. Scared the **** outta me, but I loved it. One of the better Disney Movies IMO

I'm glad someone finally decided to go over the ****ty low budget animation of the original.

But I wonder how many things they have changed.

Watch the interview with Marilyn Manson and Danny Elfman (linked from that page). The ending's pretty funny, I thought. Heh. Some explicit language warning, of course.

I thought that was a pretty OKAY cover song. I don't know what you mean by attitude in their own music, but I know most of their other songs are a lot more catchy and have a lot more energy. I don't like their genre of music, but I will admit when I know something is good. These guys get tossed into the emo genre because they are trendy, but it isn't the case. They have some talent. They aren't bad at all. Same goes for Panic! At the Disco.

Oh god yes. Myst IV is just as good. I haven't heard the tracks to Myst V though.
Think while it's still legal.
