    A Rose in the Twilight. Pretty unexciting and quiet puzzle platformer with a main character that’s slow and hard to control and dies easily.

    Then past the main credits, it pulls out a secret final boss fight with this banger.

    Turok 2 for GBC. Mediocre game, but man, the OST is a banger.

    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.

    The TV show Suits has a great soundtrack, but I’d argue that it’s not mediocre though.

      I’ve been trying to get into that because I crave juicy legal stuff. Bit tired of the supergenius-assholes trope we see in Sherlock, though, and it seems like Mike is a super genius and his boss Harvey is a genius asshole. Yes I let YouTube shorts dictate what new shows I delve into ✋😔

        It’s not a super-genius thing, it’s a perfect memory of thing’s he has read and the super memory trope is rarely used in the show. So you’re safe. Even when it is used, it’s somewhat explained well.

    Oasis of fear, sexploitation movie, not very good, but cool scenery, the song weirdly slaps and is sung multiple times in the movie in different genres, I was shazaming the song couldn’t find it and found out it was sung by the actor for the movie. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9g08tc

    Scott Pilgrim vs. the World has an awesome soundtrack.

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

    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.

      The movie was OK, but I vastly prefer the original. It has a certain 80s “Gee whiz aren’t these newfangled computers the greatest” feeling that you just can’t recapture.

      True, the soundtrack single handedly elevates it - there’s not much without that.

    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!

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

        I think without the score it would be mediocre. The music is why I love the movie so much.

      Love the movie and love Clint Mansell scores. Didn’t know about Mogwai and that’s dope! Only just recently discovered them.
