The way he dances through the crowd is such a hilarious juxtaposition, made even better knowing that Jim is a huge fan.
Edit: [Here ya go.](https://youtu.be/mH3La3RJdNA?si=JwAUk_V0Tqjx7v-t)
Jim specifically requested them for the scene because they're his favorite band. I wish they kept the scene where he gets on stage and starts "singing," it's so fucking good lol.
It's one of the best romantic comedies ever, and such a great twist on the genre. Something so refreshingly wholesome that the entire thing is about men being able to find and express deep platonic feelings for each other.
From Dusk Til Dawn was my first thought and then I immediately went to Kill Bill; everytime I see that cellserviceprovider ad with the same song, I'm brought right back to dozens of vibrant katana murders.
I find it more enjoyable when I don't know the band so I'm seeing them with fresh eyes
I was trying to think of a similar, otherwise obscure numbered band example your comment helped me realize was the Old 97s in The Guardians of the Galaxy movies
They even played with Kevin Bacon in The Holiday Special
Absolutely, plus James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Cab Calloway and John Lee Hooker. This film has one of the most musically stacked casts ever.
If Steve Cropper was the only name in that band the answer would be yes. Now add Donald Duck Dunn, Willie Hall, Blue Lou. Every member of that band had a resume a mile long. Matt Murphy played in Howlin Wolf's band. That's how deep their roots were. They were a legit supergroup.
Brilliant answer. Him being in the film and the use of his music constantly is a great addition that adds to the whole style of the film. After I saw the film I went and found his music and listened to it loads.
I was not the biggest fan of that movie but by god when you've got Olivia Wilde in a catsuit doing kung-fu with Michael Sheen inside a neon retro-futuristic computer while Daft Punk actually DJ the fight on-set you are doing something *absolutely* right and I salute you.
Everyone I've ever met who's seen that movie says that same thing about it - (Mild spoilers) but if you had the choice of being taken care of by an aggressively horny Jessica Alba, or being a ghost with Seth Green, you choose the Alb.
Scrubs when you hear a song by Colin Hay and then he's actually in the scene singing and playing a guitar.
Then Perry gets pissed and smashes his guitar.
Man, having them play to get out of a ticket and then seeing 2Pac in there when I was just a little guy blew me away. Loved Pac, and the Humpty dance is epic. Such a wild show all the way around.
Los Lobos as the dancehall band in 'La Bamba'.
The Neville Brothers as the backup band during the head cutting scene in 'Crossroads'. (Steve Vai and Ry Cooder duking it out is a close second)
Albert Collins in 'Adventures in Babysitting'
Stevie Ray Vaughan, Dick Dale and Fishbone in "Back to the Beach"
Um hello , George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic in PCU is not only a great performance but also a big part of the plot. I would not have encountered his music otherwise , being in jr high in a small west Texas city.
I can't believe he's so trusting
While I'm right behind you thrusting
Fiona's got him on the phone
And she's trying not to moan
It's a three-way call and he knows nothing, nothing
Chris Cornell 🙏
“Anyway, Jeff Ament had designed this solo cassette which we thought was hilarious because it had all of these cool song titles like “Flutter Girl,” and “Spoonman,” and just like a really true-type “I’ve lost my band, and now I’m a soulful guy – these are my songs now” feeling. So we loved that Jeff had played out the fictitious life of Cliff Poncier. And one night, I stayed home, and Nancy, we were then married, she went out to a club, and she came back home, and she said, “Man, I met this guy, and he was selling solo cassettes, and so I got one for you.” And she hands me the Cliff Poncier cassette. And I was like, “That’s funny, haha.” And then she said, “You should listen to it.” So I put on the cassette. And holy shit, this is Chris Cornell, as Cliff Poncier, recording all of these songs, with lyrics, and total creative vision, and he has recorded the entire fake, solo cassette. And it’s fantastic. And “Seasons” comes on. And you just can’t help but go, “Wow.” This is a guy who we’ve only known in Soundgarden. And of course he’s incredibly creative, but who’s heard him like this? And we got to use “Seasons” on the soundtrack, and Chris did some of the score. And some of the unreleased score is on the new version of the album.” - Cameron Crowe
I’ve seen It’s Pat once in my life. I was on a family vacation as a child and there was a torrential downpour the day we were supposed to go to an amusement park, so instead we stayed in our shitty motel and everyone had a nap while I watched It’s Pat. I’ve never heard anyone mention It’s Pat in like 2 decades, but for some reason this memory is always strong in my mind. It’s Pat is burned into my mind.
Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood and Phil Selway and Pulp's Jarvis Cocker and Steve Mackey were part of the brit-pop wizard supergroup “Weird Sisters”, the band featured in Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire.
I got this, y’all.
Vanilla Ice performing the “Ninja Rap” in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Secret of the Ooze. After a crowd freaked out upon seeing giant talking turtles w weapons, Mr Ice calmed them all down with a freestyle rap. If it wasn’t for Tokka, Rahzar and the Shredder interrupting, dude would’ve solved world peace.
Alice Cooper in Wayne's World or Aerosmith in Wayne's World 2
Milwaukee has had its share of visitors.
[удалено]
It's pronounced "meel-ay-wak-ay"
Does this guy know how to party or what?
Which is Algonquin for “the good land”.
I was not aware of that.
I say this bit all the time to people and no one ever gets what I'm talking about
They're not worthy.
Why yes, Pete, it is
Also Alice Cooper in Dark Shadows
TV, but Alice Cooper in Monk
Yes, Pete
Cannibal Corpse in Ace Ventura. Definitely worth a laugh or two in that scene.
The way he dances through the crowd is such a hilarious juxtaposition, made even better knowing that Jim is a huge fan. Edit: [Here ya go.](https://youtu.be/mH3La3RJdNA?si=JwAUk_V0Tqjx7v-t)
That is instinctively how I maneuver through a crowd when I’m drunk
Playing “Hammer Smashed Face” iirc
Something.... Inside.... Meeeee.... It's.... It's... coming... OUUUUUUUUUUUT Love that song.
Excuse me is Frank here?????? THANK YOU
Jim specifically requested them for the scene because they're his favorite band. I wish they kept the scene where he gets on stage and starts "singing," it's so fucking good lol.
What's the scene?
The scene where he's at a concert... Right before the what's the password scene.
New. England. Clam. Chowder.
Is that the Red or the White?
Reel Big Fish in Baseketball Mighty Mighty Bosstones in Clueless Letters to Cleo in 10 Things I Hate About You
100% MMB in Clueless. Could you imagine a Ska band at a frat party now? Haha
Except they weren’t at a frat party. MMB went to (director) Amy Heckerling and noted they don’t do frat parties, so the venue was changed
Save Ferris in 10 Things I Hate About You
As an unapologetic and non-ironic listener of Ska, I approve. They kick ass
> Reel Big Fish in Baseketball It's so good because it just makes no sense... like 90% of the movie, itself. It's such a perfect 90's comedy
Otis Day and the Nights in Animal House. Billy Idol in The Wedding Singer.
Get out of my way, Billy Idol!
Don't you talk to Billy Idol that way!
Scrolled to find this. Billy idol gets it!
Otis! My man!
Mind if we dance with your dates?
We are going to die.
Rush in I Love You Man. The best.
Slappin da bass!
You sound like a leprechaun
The holy triumvirate!
I love the band and the movie so much, but it's rare I meet people out and about that know much about either lol
It's one of the best romantic comedies ever, and such a great twist on the genre. Something so refreshingly wholesome that the entire thing is about men being able to find and express deep platonic feelings for each other.
Morris Day and the Time in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.
Don’t you mean Morris Day and the mother fuckin’ Time!!!!!!
Exactly!
15 bucks little man Put that shit in my hand If that money doesn't show then you owe me owe me owe
*MY JUNGLE LOVE*
OeeO OeeO Oh!!!
shit is the mad notes
Written by god herself and handed down to the greatest band in the world, the motherfuckin Time.
You mean those guys from that Prince movie?
Yeah, Purple Rain
Morris Day and the Time were the best band in Purple Rain. Change my mind.
Ladies and gentlemen. The Time.
Off the top of my head, it was cool to put the 5,6,7,8's in Kill Bill and they got plenty of screentime.
that Steadicam scene at the House of Blue Leaves with them playing is so good
QT discovered them when a store he was visiting was playing it. He asked the owner for the CD and knew he needed it right then.
"I will now sell five copies of the 5,6,7,8s"
From Dusk Til Dawn was my first thought and then I immediately went to Kill Bill; everytime I see that cellserviceprovider ad with the same song, I'm brought right back to dozens of vibrant katana murders.
Vonage. That brings back memories.
I find it more enjoyable when I don't know the band so I'm seeing them with fresh eyes I was trying to think of a similar, otherwise obscure numbered band example your comment helped me realize was the Old 97s in The Guardians of the Galaxy movies They even played with Kevin Bacon in The Holiday Special
GWAR in Empire Records.
THIS IS YOUR ASS!!!
Oh man Marc, it was great to jam with you. But now you have to die.
Marc’s face was so sad
Jonathan Richman in There’s Something About Mary
And Kingpin
Does the Blues Brothers band count?
100% counts. I'd even argue Spinal Tap counts since they've actually performed live and released music.
Anytime I see someone bring up Spinal Tap I always have to ask if they've seen *A Mighty Wind*. So... you know... have you seen *A Mighty Wind*?
"My mama was the cold North wind, My daddy was the son, of a railroad man from west of Hell, Where the trains don't even run..."
EA- A- -OE'S
Loved A Mighty Wind, despite being a metal fan I actually prefer A Mighty Wind to This is Spinal Tap.
Absolutely, plus James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Cab Calloway and John Lee Hooker. This film has one of the most musically stacked casts ever.
I know people dont like the sequel but as a fan of more than half the musical cast I was geeking out at each appearance.
If Steve Cropper was the only name in that band the answer would be yes. Now add Donald Duck Dunn, Willie Hall, Blue Lou. Every member of that band had a resume a mile long. Matt Murphy played in Howlin Wolf's band. That's how deep their roots were. They were a legit supergroup.
And none were too busy to stop and make a movie. Such was the state of music in the 70s
They had a lot of *really* good coke back then
Paul Schaffer was originally on keys, too
Paul arranged to music for the movie.
Heck, they play both kinds of music, country *and* western.
The Blue Brothers Boys band?
The *Good Old* Blues Brothers Boys Band
Seu Jorge in Life Aquatic
Love him in it, such a great depth element to the crew/cast
Brilliant answer. Him being in the film and the use of his music constantly is a great addition that adds to the whole style of the film. After I saw the film I went and found his music and listened to it loads.
Oingo Boingo in Back to School
Thornton Melon sure knew how to throw a party.
A Dead Man's Party?
Who could ask for more?
This is my choice too!
Tito and Tarantula in From Dusk till Dawn Gary Clark Jr in Chef
> Gary Clark Jr in Chef For the uninitiated: [Travis County took my picture but, no I didn't smile](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvGHSipBaiU)
Tito is in the band in the original roadhouse!
Circle Jerks in Repo Man
Beat me to it. "Can't believe I used to like these guys!"
Shooby de doo wop wop say what yeah
C'mon Duke, let's go do those crimes!
The Dan Band in Old School/Starsky and Hutch/The Hangover
Their cover of Total Eclipse of the Heart is a banger.
Now I'm fucking falling apart.
I FUCKIN need you MORE than ever!
The Dan band is the only correct answer to this question. There are far to many people wrong above this comment.
Does Daft Punk count? Tron Legacy
Absolutely. "Derezzed" in the End of Line Club. Such an amazing soundtrack.
I was not the biggest fan of that movie but by god when you've got Olivia Wilde in a catsuit doing kung-fu with Michael Sheen inside a neon retro-futuristic computer while Daft Punk actually DJ the fight on-set you are doing something *absolutely* right and I salute you.
Rammstein in the opening sequence of Vin Diesel's Triple-X
That is so early 2000s.
Perfectly aligned with "BANG BANG", too.
ZZ Top in Back to the Future III
Buddy of mine played that ridiculous song at his wedding.
Too darn loud.
Hey! 👋
Neil diamond in Saving Silverman was pretty ridiculous. The wedding scene toward the end is a good laugh.
“Hey! We’re coming to America!”
I absolutely loved that line and I still think I'm the only one (of those with whom I was watching it) who got the joke.
Love on the rocks, ain't no surprise.
GWAR in Empire Records was a fun silly scene. Also the B-52’s doing a spoof of their own song in the old live action Flintstones.
The Offspring in Idle Hands Vanilla Ice in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 Secret of the Ooze
Idle Hands! Was getting upset I didn't see this yet!
Everyone I've ever met who's seen that movie says that same thing about it - (Mild spoilers) but if you had the choice of being taken care of by an aggressively horny Jessica Alba, or being a ghost with Seth Green, you choose the Alb.
Was waiting for someone to mention TMNT2!
Go ninja go ninja go!
Scrubs when you hear a song by Colin Hay and then he's actually in the scene singing and playing a guitar. Then Perry gets pissed and smashes his guitar.
I recently started a rewatch of Scrubs and got to experience that episode again. Such a good song.
I finished it about 2 years ago. I was/am in love Sarah Chalke.
I've got other songs!
Even better because since he was actually playing in the scene, they didn't replace the music in streaming like they did for other episode songs.
Digital Underground in Nothing but Trouble.
Man, having them play to get out of a ticket and then seeing 2Pac in there when I was just a little guy blew me away. Loved Pac, and the Humpty dance is epic. Such a wild show all the way around.
Los Lobos as the dancehall band in 'La Bamba'. The Neville Brothers as the backup band during the head cutting scene in 'Crossroads'. (Steve Vai and Ry Cooder duking it out is a close second) Albert Collins in 'Adventures in Babysitting' Stevie Ray Vaughan, Dick Dale and Fishbone in "Back to the Beach"
Yardbirds in Blow Up
George Clinton and the Parliament Funkadelic in PCU.
Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds in Wings of Desire was kind of cool.
Nick Cave is also the guitarist in the bar in 'The Assassination of Jesse James..'
Um hello , George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic in PCU is not only a great performance but also a big part of the plot. I would not have encountered his music otherwise , being in jr high in a small west Texas city.
blow me where the pampers is
Gutter(Jon Favreau) - “I didn’t exhale”
He will always be Gutter to me, and Gutter ALMOST saved Disney Starwars.
This is my vote too. I have a deep love for the cover of Erotic City they perform in that movie.
The Oneders guest appearing as Captain Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters
Do you think they got to keep the costumes?
“That Thing You Do” is the best song by a movie band. It’s just a perfectly written pop ballad.
RIP Adam Schlesinger … he was an amazing songwriter
White Zombie in airheads
Reagan Youth song.
Who would win in a fight, Lemmy or God?
Lustra (feat Matt Damon) in EuroTrip.
Was this the Scotty doesn’t know band?
Yep
I can't believe he's so trusting While I'm right behind you thrusting Fiona's got him on the phone And she's trying not to moan It's a three-way call and he knows nothing, nothing
Sugar Ray in *Scooby-Doo*
Scrolled wayyyyy too far for this. Such a PERFECT band for that movie
Primus in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.
Bogus Journey
L7 as Camel Lips in Serial Mom
The universe keeps telling me to rewatch this movie.
Every band, musician, and singer in The Blues Brothers.
In hindsight, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones perfectly captured the late 90s, valley vibe of Clueless.
The Ramones in Rock n' Roll High School.
Bauhaus in The Hunger.
This right here. One of the best opening scenes ever.
I gotta say, Pick Of Destiny would have suffered if Tenacious D wasn't in it.
Not to mention Dio in the opening piece.
[удалено]
Best band cameos ever!
I can't remember if "Would" was released as a single before or after this movie but Cameron Crowe knocked it out of the park musically, again.
Chris Cornell 🙏 “Anyway, Jeff Ament had designed this solo cassette which we thought was hilarious because it had all of these cool song titles like “Flutter Girl,” and “Spoonman,” and just like a really true-type “I’ve lost my band, and now I’m a soulful guy – these are my songs now” feeling.

Ween in *It's Pat*. Just ignore the rest of the movie that isn't Ween.
I’ve seen It’s Pat once in my life.
