The Music From The Films Of Scarlett Johansson Post.

Since Scarlett Johansson is the oldest of the women in this series so far at the ripe old age of 27, and since many of her movies (the gorgeous, pouting Scarlett rarely does scripted television with the exception of her Robot Chicken appearances - and the pilot for the TV version of The Client) have had soundtrack releases, we've got the longest disc so far. Not included in this lineup: North, Home Alone 3 or My Brother The Pig (thus preventing the inclusion of a pre-Lost Michael Giacchino). Also not included is David Julyan's The Prestige (because it's boring), or any of her Woody Allen films (especially Match Point - I resent films where hotties I like get killed) as he hardly ever goes for original scoring. But if I can get any of her songs here, I will...

9. I'm Psyched (from In Good Company) - Stephen Trask (2:50)
17. I Got A Ride (from The Avengers) - Alan Silvestri (4:00)

Next up, another pouty sexpot however much she denies it...

The Seven Reasons To See "Julie & Julia" Post.

1. It helps redeem Nora Ephron after scripting the overrated When Harry Met Sally... (and after what she did to Bewitched).

2. Amy Adams's performance, which more than makes up for Meryl Streep's overpraised comic turn (was the real Julia Child really the spiritual ancestor of Gladys from Sesame Street?).

3. Stanley Tucci as Mr. Child.

4. Alexandre Desplat's music.

5. The food!

6. The warmth and appeal it's full of.

7. Amy Adams lying face down on her bed in denim jeans, and later lying down in a shirt and nothing else. Does she even know how sexy she is?

The New Moon Soundtrack Listing Post.

Okey-dokey, so we finally found out what's going to be on the Chop Shop/Atlantic CD for The Twilight Saga: New Moon. While I liked Twilight I didn't dash out to buy its CD (although I still want Carter Burwell's score album), and this new lineup is also about as appealing as Insert Unappealing Picture Blog Of Choice Here. The bloke from Radiohead? The band whose leader has had carnal knowledge of Edith Bowman? The Killers? (As Ryan Adams put it, "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, with the unfortunate exception of The Killers.") I can only hope Alexandre "When does the man sleep?" Desplat gets his own separate score disc.

1. Meet Me On The Equinox - Death Cab For Cutie
2. Friends - Band Of Skulls
3. Hering Damage - Thom Yorke
4. Possibility - Lykke Li
5. A White Demon Love Song - The Killers
6. Satellite Heart - Anya Marina
7. I Belong To You (New Moon) - Muse
8. Rosyln - Bon Iver and St. Vincent
9. Done All Wrong - Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
10. Monsters - Hurricane Bells
11. The Violet Hour - Sea Wolf
12. Shooting The Moon - OK Go
13. Slow Life - Grizzly Bear
14. No Sound But The Wind - Editors
15. New Moon (The Meadow) - Alexandre Desplat
