What if I told you there was a movie written by Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale — the duo who would go on to create Back to the Future… directed by Steven Spielberg, fresh off the massive success of Jaws and Close Encounters… starring comedy legends John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd, and John Candy… and scored by the music genius behind Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Jaws, E.T., Jurassic Park — himself, John Williams? You’d expect a guaranteed blockbuster. Instead, what audiences got in 1979 was 1941 — Spielberg’s first spectacular misfire.

When the Music Made the Movie
Sometimes it’s not the acting, the dialogue, or even the cinematography that cements a movie in our memories — it’s the music. I’m talking about those perfect needle drops, the songs that existed long before the film but, once paired with that scene, became forever tied to it. You hear the song, you see the scene. Today, we’re counting down the moments where music and movies fused into pop culture perfection — starting with some all-time classics before we dive into the deep cuts only the real film nerds will remember.
Mo and Max are 80s and 90s cinema nerds. They are on a quest to rank, debate, and offer fresh takes on the best of the best from the only decades that matters. From Arnold to Zoltar, they cover it all. That answer your question?
Sincerely,
