Depending on who you ask, Tron: Legacy.

(I personally love the movie and rewatch it every couple years but it didn't do well, IIRC.)

I murdered a lot of reapas in Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer to some of those songs.

Spawn movie.

Tron: legacy

Imagine slotting

into your SNES in 1993 and hearing THIS. The game kinda sucks but the music keeps you going.

Movies

• Sucker Punch
• Transformer 2 and beyond. The movies were shit but the score was top notch
• Blue Hawaii

Tv Shows

• The Book Of Bobba Fett
• Star Trek Enterprise

I want to mention like three different games, but for each one someone would rightfully come after me for saying the game itself is mediocre. So I'll just say I personally love these games, but I see with pretty clear eyes that aspects of them haven't stood the test of time.

Mirror's Edge, The Neverhood, and Yuri's Revenge all have amazing soundtracks.

And after that disclaimer if you still try to pick a fight about how they're not mediocre games, I'm going to also pretend I'm fighting the person who called them mediocre and then crawl out of our cartoon fight cloud.

The fountain (2006). The soundtrack was partially produced by the band Mogwai.

Huniepop is a porn game with the barest of stories between the titties, juvenile humor, and honestly the porn itself is just so-so. This is all wrapped around what is admittedly a pretty good match 3 puzzle game, but the soundtrack! For chill atmospheric music, that shit is fucking incredible.

Jeez. I must be getting old. Mortal Kombat from 1995.

The ‘80s Conan the Barbarian film with Arnie.

Utterly awesome soundtrack by Basil Poledouris.

Lazarus, it was an anime written by the same guy that made Cowboy Bepop. It was alright, but they hired Bonobo to do the soundtrack for it and it's just amazing...

I wouldn't say mediocre, it was a pretty fun game for its time, but the Sanctum soundtrack by Coffee Stain Studios was fantastic

Batman & Robin

A mediocre movie, but the soundtrack featured Smashing Pumpkins, Bone Thugs n' Harmony, Jewel, Goo Goo Dolls, Underworld, and Moloko among others. Incredible collection.

Also, R. Kelly with a great song, but, well...

Pictionary

Just thought of another answer.

Queen of the Damned movie.

Wore out the CD back in the early 00s. Had some pretty damn big names doing songs for the OST, Kidney Thieves: Before I'm Dead is still something I listen to on occasion to this day.

Might be a bit of nostalgia and bias in this answer though.

Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World has an awesome soundtrack.

The movie itself, has aged towards somewhere between mediocre and good.

Not exactly the soundtrack, it was fine, but nothing special and overall forgettable

But I want to give a small shout-out to Morbius for having really good sound mixing. I definitely expected it to be a "whispers and explosions" kind of movie where you couldn't hear the conversations, and action scenes blew your eardrums out, and the background music was all over the place

But no, everything was at a reasonable volume, I could hear everything crystal clear.

There was just nothing worth hearing unfortunately.

Crysis 2. I don’t think the game would’ve been much without the bombastic Hans Zimmer theme.

Remember Me. See for yourself:

If I remember correctly, they blew too much budget on the orchestra and it affected the game quality.

There's a game for the SNES called Act Raiser, I think it was by Quintet or Taito or Square, one of those. You play Actual God taking back the world from Probably Satan, you do this partly in a side scrolling platforming combat style, and partially in an overhead city building style. Surprisingly good soundtrack for a game as weird as it is.

I mean I'm seeing a lot of Tron legacy, but Tron Ares has a fantastic soundtrack and I'm in no rush to actually watch the film

Lord of the Rings: Vol I for SNES. The game is worse than mediocre. It’s utter trash. I remain convinced they blew the budget on the soundtrack! It does a lot of things you really don’t hear that often on the SNES! Amazing!

I liked Stealth's soundtrack when it came out. Radio had gotten quite corporate-stale at the time, and the tracks had a upbeat rock personality I did not know I wanted to explore. I'm no audiophile, and it is not something I actually pursued. It was just something I noticed at the time. I rarely take notice of stuff like that.

In terms of movie music in general, anything from John Williams is amazing to me. I think it is because John has a knack for communicating logical empathy and emotions in music that tells a parallel story within the scenes of the movie. He is not creating a simple background soundscape or echoing the emotions the visual storytelling. Instead, he is sneaking in behind you from the shadows and taking on a staring role in your experience without ever announcing himself or allowing you to see how he expands the performing stage. After that initial experience of the film, when you hear any small part of John's score, that entity he conjured comes to life again, reminding you of his unspoken staring role in ways no one else I know of is capable. Some others certainly create beautiful backgrounds and soundscapes, but I have never experienced anyone else that conjures a presence in the same way as John Williams.

Willow for the NES has some songs that will still randomly take over the ol' jukebox of the brain to this day.
