    Yes, it is a bit odd. But when those sounds come out of it, I don't care if it looks like a teletubby.

            Probably not what you're looking for, but the intro to the Original Blade movie launched the entire MCU. :-D The Opening Scene in Blade (1998) - YouTube[^]

              Duelling Banjos. Just the first bar brings to mind all the horrors the movie brought us and all the [albeit incorrect and damaging] cultural images of Appalachia.

                    The opening sequence music for Star Trek was pulled over from the TV series to the movies.

                    I'm trying to think which one it is you're talking about. The music from The Motion Picture (the first Trek movie) became the theme for TNG, so it's the other way around. Which movie got the Star Trek TV series theme? I'm assuming by Star Trek TV series, you mean the original one.

                      This one, obviously[^] ;) Composed in 1933 by some Alfred Newman, yet everyone today knows it.

                        Other than Enterprise, all the Star Trek series and movie themes are based on the theme from TOS.

                          At the risk of adding yet ANOTHER western movie: The Magnificent Seven • Main Theme • Elmer Bernstein - YouTube[^] Sadly it's also the "Marlboro Man" theme song.

                            As I was reading down this thread, I was, "Yeah, that's it", "No, that one's better", "Oh no, I didn't think of that one" ... I can't believe how much clutter I have in my brain. Anyhow, I have to go with The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. Haunting. I just hope I forget it before I go to bed tonight or it will be ringing in my mind all night.
