Ha I do think of that one, too.

Back in 2000, I think you were practically brainwashed into linking Metallica with Mission: Impossible II.

It's a decent song but I seem to remember that summer its all I heard. πŸ˜„

[–] goldenbug@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

This is the song that got me into rock and eventually metal

[–] misk@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I remember that summer, stuck in the countryside, satellite TV being the only entertainment other than fucking around on my bike. I disappear and Take a look around are similarily linked in my mind.

[–] UKFilmNerd@feddit.uk 7 points 1 year ago

I was always annoyed a little bit because I was a bigger Limp Bizkit fan and at least their song used the M:I theme music!

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 6 points 1 year ago

Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls to City of Angels, but looks like it was written for the movie so not sure if it counts..

Hero wasn't by them, it was only by Chad.

[–] JoeKrogan@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I stand corrected. πŸ†

[–] BoisZoi@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

No worries, it's a common misconception. It doesn't help that Nickelback was founded in 1995 and the song came out in 2002 iirc.

[–] meathorse@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Short Circuit 2 - Holding on for a hero.

Much more impactful than how it was used in Shrek 2.

Real stakes, life and death. Spoiler warning - clip spoils the climax of the movie...

[–] gotrandom@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Omg yes! I didn’t even think of this one until you mentioned it. I was so in love with those movies as a kid.

Freebird will always bring back the Kingsman church scene.

Tuesday's Gone will always remind me of Happy Gilmore.

[–] disheveledWallaby@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Not really a song, but Carmina Burana and Boorman's Exalibur (also bits of the GΓΆtterdΓ€mmerung I guess).

[–] MadBob@feddit.nl 2 points 1 year ago

Hero by Chad Kroeger makes me think of Spider-Man

When Worlds Collide by Powerman 5000 is linked with Little Nicky (and that P.O.D. song in the opening that I can't remember the name of, too... Shit, and Everlong. Anything by Chicago... dammit, I've watched that movie too many times.) and always makes me picture Adrian taking the throne.

Foxy Lady will forever make me think of that scene in the first Wayne's World movie.

Night Ranger - Sister Christian / Boogie Nights

Die another day - obviously made for the movie of with that title, but could stand on its own imo
