Superman Returns SR links up with Flaming Lips

[Axl Van Sixx]

From rollingstone.com:

We’ve all puffed doobs and watched The Wizard of Oz synched up with Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon. And as rad as it was the first dozen times we did it, we’d have to say the novelty has worn off. Like, seven hundred years ago. Which is why we were excited to learn that some stoner genius discovered a new way to while away the hours using a DVD player and some sweet-ass tunes. It seems that the last chapter of Superman Returns links up astoundingly well with the Flaming Lips’ 1999 album The Soft Bulletin. We’ve yet to try this out, but we have a nice fat spliff waiting for us at home and a couple of brain cells to spare. In other words, it’s imminent. That said, we’re trying to be pragmatic. We know that in time, we’ll tire of this party trick as well. So we’re asking you, dear readers, to suggest other marvels of music-film synchronicity. Consider it a public service. -- Lauren Gitlin




Take it from me guys....smoke enough weed and ANYTHING will synch up. t:

Just for convenience, I'll post what it says at the link here:

Start Point -
Mute the film and go to Chapter 30 about 30 minutes before the end of the film.

Superman has just rescued Lois and her family from the sinking boat and they are flying home when Lois wakes up. She convinces her husband to turn the plane round to go help Superman. The music should start when it cuts to an exterior shot of the plane as it turns, just before it cuts to Superman's face as Lex taunts and beats him.

Album Order -
There are two different versions of this album; US and UK, both have the same songs but in different orders so i will list the songs by title rather than Track number;

1.The Gash
2.The Observer
3.What Is The Light?
4.Waitin' For A Superman (original version NOT Mokran mix)
5.Race for the Prize (original version NOT Mokran mix)
6.Feeling Yourself Disintegrate
7.Sleeping on the Roof
8.Buggin'

Check Point -
The exact time for the music to start is 1:49:39 into the film as it cuts to an exterior shot of the plane as it turns around.
