I just don't know, man.

I think their songs would make for interesting comics, though!

Dream Theater - Metropolis.
Alternatively, Metropolis pt II - Scenes from a Memory, if you find an ambitious producer.

[-] Nibodhika@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Honestly Scenes from a Memory would make a great movie, and now I have to go listen to it again

[-] Nibodhika@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Rhapsody, the band all of their songs progressively tell an epic story that I would love to see in movie form.

Alternatively Nightfall in Middle-Earth from Blind Guardian, love the Silmarillion would love to see a movie about it.

Tarkus. Giant monsters battling is always fun.

[-] Widdershins@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Boy have I got news for you!

[-] klemptor@startrek.website 1 points 2 weeks ago

Bob Dylan - Hurricane (which actually became a movie starring Denzel Washington in 1999).

[-] AstralPath@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

That song is amazing!

100%. I always thought I was alone in thinking it.

[-] spizzat2@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago

I wouldn't mind seeing what they could do with "East River Revolution" by District 7

[-] 667@lemmy.radio 1 points 2 weeks ago

Space Oddity Wellerman

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 1 points 2 weeks ago
  • Seether - Love Her
  • Slipknot - Killpop
[-] Bruncvik@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I always imagine All Along the Watchtower as a 1980's fantasy movie along the lines of Red Sonya or The Beastmaster.

The Mariner's Revenge by The Decemberists

[-] Tau@lemy.lol 1 points 2 weeks ago

King for a 1000 years, Helloween

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Several rush songs. 2112, Hemispheres, cygnus x-1

[-] Inucune@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Tool-Lost keys/Rosetta stoned. Maybe the stoner really did see something out in the desert.

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago

Alrighty then... picture this if you will

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago

Cologne by incubus would make a pretty wild b-movie

[-] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

"Heart of a dancer" by the happy fits could make a fun tenacious d sort of movie

"Hell's comin' with me" by poor man's poison would be a classic revenge western

"Big town banky blaine's rockabilly barbeque" by bear ghost could be an interesting look at class war if you could pull it off

Oh and "A tale they won't believe" by captain tractor for man turning to cannibalism to survive

[-] Adderbox76@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

Oh and “A tale they won’t believe” by captain tractor for man turning to cannibalism to survive

Holy shit. Never expected to find another person who has heard of Captain Tractor on Lemmy of all places. They have a long history with me and my college years (late nineties, early 2000s)

[-] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

I prefer the captain tractor version of the last saskatchewan pirate that's how I found the band but the other song came up on it's own through spotify recommendations

[-] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 weeks ago

Watsky, et al - Exquisite Corpse

For best results this should be cheesy B-movie as hell, the song really leans into it I think

[-] justsquigglez@leminal.space 0 points 2 weeks ago

Dude I don't think I've ever seen Watsky mentioned outside of his own comment sections. You a real one for that.

Love my guy, George.

[-] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Love my guy George. Listening to Cardboard Castles got me through a really rough time in my life and I don't expect to ever be able to repay it. Least I can do is to spread the word.
