I have posted the songs and videos from hundreds of movies this year. Most receive a modicum of attention – maybe a few hundred or even a few thousand tune in. But then there are the few that seem that capture the imagination of tens of thousands of movie and music lovers alike.

So here are two lists of movies: my favorite soundtracks in a range of random categories, and the most popular soundtracks of 2008, based on close to a million people who visited Reelsoundtrack.com. There’s some overlap, but then there are also divergences.

  • Most requested soundtrack – What Happens in Vegas
    They did not release a soundtrack album to What Happens in Vegas, but they certainly should have. The movie has 35 songs, including music from Mika, Junior Senior, Jet, Eels, Shout Out Louds, Buzz Junkies and many more.

  • Most pleasantly surprising soundtrack – Ghost Town
    This was a really good movie – a pleasant surprise. And the music was too. It kicked off with the The Beatles singing “I’m Looking Through You” and carried right through with Wilco’s “Please Be Patient With Me,” “Sideways” by Citizen Cop and many more.

  • Best debut of a band in a movie – Babylon A.D.
    System of a Down bassist Shavo Odadijan joined forces with RZA to create Achozen. Achozen dominated the movie Babylon A.D. with seven songs, most of which could not be found elsewhere anywhere. From the addictive beats of Deuces to Rollindissgeyes, Forshadow, Digital Slaps and Build Your Enemies, this was a great collection of music from a heretofore nonexistent band.

  • Biggest tease – Max Payne
    I wanted to see this movie because of the incredible use of the song “If I Was Your Vampire” by Marilyn Manson. The trailer was brilliant; the song was raw. But the movie…not so much.

    Runner up:Paper Planes by M.I.A. used in the trailer for Pineapple Express. The song was one of the best of the year but did not make it on to the soundtrack. It would have been number one, but the movie itself was far better than Max Payne, so there was not so much disappointment.

  • Best use of an Oasis song – Made of Honor
    I love Oasis and have so for more than a decade. The brothers Gallagher have come and gone and returned again, but I cannot think of a better use of one of their songs in a movie than when they play Stop Crying Your Heart Out in Made of Honor. The movie also features Dashboard Confessional, Oasis, Kanye West, Smash Mouth, Frankie Goes to Hollywood and the Fratellis.

  • Best bubblegum pop soundtrack – House Bunny
    I will go out on a major limb here. Anna Faris is a comic genius. Yes I said it, genius. She is the best part of every movie she is in. She could even turn a too-old-for-the-mansion return-to-college to find herself and her true love playboy bunny story (a stretch) into something that was actually really entertaining. The music was pure fun bubblegum pop at its finest, including: The Pussycat Dolls, Vitamin C, Avril Lavigne, Rihanna, Boys Like Girls, Metro Station, Ashlee Simpson and The All-American Rejects.

  • Best Sequel Soundtrack – Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2
    There are 29 songs in the movie, including the expected – Regina Spektor, Michelle Branch and Cyndi Lauper – but also the unexpected – Hot Hot Heat, Noisettes and Dollyrots – and the brilliantly unexpected – Talib Kweli, Mutemath and Aqualung.

  • Best song used in the most divergent movie scenes – Por Ti Volare / Con Te Partiro
    Will Ferrell sings Por Ti Volare in the climactic wine mixer scene of     Stepbrothers. The original version, Con Te Partiro, as sung by Andrea Bocelli, is playing on the car radio in the movie Wanted as they flip the car in a corkscrew to kill the guy in back.

  • Best soundtrack to the worst movie – College
    This movie was bad, really bad. I didn’t laugh once: fully a waste of two hours and 10 bucks. But if it had one redeeming feature, it was the music, including an original score was by The Transcenders, a couple by Ben Kweller and Supagroup, as well as Sizzle C and King Juju.

  • Best old school rap – The Wackness
    A trip down memory lane for early 90’s rap, including Notorious B.I.G., Will Smith as the Fresh Prince, bringing us Summertime tunes, and R. Kelly with a little bump and grind and kickin’ it with A Tribe Called Quest.

  • Best flashback to the 80s – You Don’t Mess with the Zohan
    From Rob Base to Ace of Base, Stereo MCs to Armand Van Helden, Rockwell, Color Me Badd and Mariah Carey, plus Techtronic, Nu Shooz, Eek-a-Mouse and Adam Ant.

    Do mesmo diretor de Identidade Bourne e Sr. e Sra. Smith, Jumper conta a historia de David Rice (Hayden Christensen), um jovem que nasceu com o poder de se teletransportar para qualquer lugar do mundo, em um piscar de olhos.

     

    David nunca foi um garoto popular na escola. Após uma tentativa para conquistar Millie Harris (Rachel Bilson), David acaba sofrendo um acidente em um lago congelado, e é teletransportado para uma biblioteca pública.

     

    Após essa descoberta, David não para mais de se teletransportar e usa esse poder para fugir de problemas do passado.  Mas a vida solitária de David faz com que ele volte a sua cidade natal para reencontrar o velho amor de sua vida.

     

    Porém, David conhece Griffin, outro jovem que pode se teletransportar, descobrindo que não é o único de sua espécie e faz parte de uma raça nomeada Jumpers.

     

    David também descobre a existência de uma sociedade secreta que tem como missão exterminá-los. Seu líder Roland (Samuel L. Jackson), não desiste de capturá-lo por nada.

     

    Com um elenco bem conhecido pelo público, a aventura Jumper conta com muitos efeitos especiais e vale a pena ser conferido nos cinemas.
