Last night I saw that Watchmen movie with rushin_doll and chlorrel. Overall I thought it was pretty awesome, but I'm fairly sure the best part was how it was accompanied by the least subtle soundtrack in the history of cinema. It was like being hit multiple times with a sledgehammer! Sometimes it was a totally awesome sledgehammer, and sometimes it was just a completely hilarious sledgehammer (and you all know which scene I mean.)

So, now I totally want to know: what would you guys add to the ~*~least subtle soundtrack ever?~*~

For example, I am kind of shocked that they never used American Pie - possibly for the scene when Dr. Manhattan dumps Janey Slater? Or maybe when Janey Slater pulls off her cancer-wig. BYE BYE, MISS AMERICAN PIE. And chlorrel suggests Last Midnight for the scene with the Doomsday Clock!

Just take anything off the Forrest Gump soundtrack, really. And add to it 'Born in the USA', Sting's 'Russians' (In Europe and America / There's a growing feeling of hysteria...), and maybe Europe's 'The Final Countdown'. Blend, stir, serve over Antarctic ice?

I would drink that cocktail with hilarity pleasure, madam!

Someday, someone with a lot of time on their hands should switch out the Forrest Gump and the Watchmen soundtracks and see whether it actually does work just as well.
