Adventureland (2009)

Kristen Stewart fans: you will love her in this. Classic Stewart with all of her adorable quirks and mannerisms. Jesse Eisenberg is great, as well: nothing at all false about his character, or any in the characters, for that manner! The soundtrack is remarkable: Lou Reed, Velvet Underground, The Cure... Terrific! Extremely advocate. My husband and I have watched it most likely 100 occasions!!

[500] Days Of Summer - Music From The Motion Picture

Good sound track for an incredible movie. The scene inside the movie when Tom has his initially romantic time is priceless. It's a song by Hall & Oats. See it on youtube under 500days of summer. So I play that song over and over....it's an awesome CD.Buy it!
If you haven't seen this film it's a MUST! Joseph Gordon Levitt from 3rd Rock
and Zoey (Elf's(Will Ferrill's) girlfriend!

Adventureland

I just came dwelling from watching this movie and I immediately went to Amazon to get the album. Whoever picked the music should have been a child from the 80's like me. All the songs in the movie fit perfectly. In just about every situation, there was a mix of amazing classic 80's dance, pop and rock songs. If you loved Adventureland, ensure to choose up this album.

Adventureland Soundtrack:Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist

The movie "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist" is a decent (if not necessarily good) film following the romantic travails of two meant-to-be-would-be lovers in Manhattan over the course of one night looking for an elusive band. It's okay, but a run-of-the-mill rom-com with barely anything beyond the leads to recommend it. What makes the movie worth watching (and what makes this CD worth owning) is the music.

Adventureland Soundtrack:Whip It!

Whip It is the kind of movie that you wish would not end. The excitement it generates is electric, whether its set in the lead character Bliss's everyday life or her secret life as a roller derby queen. These punk songs by groups I never heard before are amazing! Garage rock is back! I am so grateful to director Drew Barrymore for putting these all in one package! When I hear the songs, every time I am transported back to that roller derby in the warehouse and this scene is a far cry from anything I have ever seen before. My personal experience with roller skates is much more innocent, early eighties roller rinks moving to disco tunes like "Freak Out" or "Funkytown." These songs for the most part are current and bring a fresh outlook for rock with a hope that punk can still survive in the world of hip-hop and teen pop.

Adventureland Soundtrack:Don't You Know Who I Think I Was?

Few bands can lay claim to being at the forefront of America's punk rock movement. Even fewer can say that they mattered. The Replacements - along with a short list that would include Ramones, Black Flag, Husker Du and The New York Dolls - are one such band. This 2006 best of starts in 1979, when Paul Westerberg joined brothers Bob (guitar) and Tommy Stinson (bass) and drummer Chris Mars and became one of Minneapolis earliest hard core bands.

Adventureland Soundtrack:Days Of Summer-Music From The Motion Picture

I remember seeing 500 Days Of Summer on opening weekend back in 2009 and I still consider it one of the best films of that year. I'm a huge fan of the 80s alternative rock group The Smiths and when I herd them in the movie, I was excited. I was happy to hear two songs of theirs make it on the soundtrack. "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out" is a beautiful song that I still love and get pleasure out of listening to. "Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want" also appears on the soundtrack along with a cover version from She & Him. The other artists on this soundtrack I didn't know of at the time but I have to thank this soundtrack for introducing me to them. I own all of Regina Spektor's albums now after falling in love with the songs "Us" and "Hero". The Temper Trap was an up and coming act at the time and I bought their album Conditions which I higly recommend. Feist is another brilliant artist, if you enjoy Regina Spektor that you will like her music as well. Doves is another great band and I highly recommend their album, The Last Broadcast. I have yet to hear Zooey Deschanel's duo act group She & Him but after being impressed with their cover of The Smiths classic, I know I will love them.

Adventureland Soundtrack:Adventureland

I decided to start watching other films that Kristen Stewart starred in. I'd already done the same thing with Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson so I wanted to give her a shot. The Runaways was too boring for me to finish and when I started this film I was thinking the same thing: "Does she ever play a character that doesn't look like her during interviews? Is she even acting or is she always this nervous and squirrel-ish? This seems like the exact same person, just with new actors surrounding her." While the verdict is still out on whether she can play roles unlike herself (this character may as well have been Bella), I really liked her in this film. She was a little more complex--in a weird relationship with the guy who played Mark Zuckerberg from The Social Network--Jesse Eisenberg, another actor who always seems like he wants to run screaming from the camera; and she was boning a married man who lied about his background with a famous band.
