Breathtaking secondary themes from major motion pictures (with a link):

  1. Forbidden Friendship from How to Train Your Dragon
  2. Yoda and the Force from The Empire Strikes Back
  3. Ilia’s Theme from Star Trek: The Motion Picture
  4. Building the Barn from Witness
  5. The Plugz Reel Ten from Repo Man
  6. Across the Stars (Anakin and Padme’s Love Theme) from Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones
  7. Flynn Lives from Tron: Legacy
  8. Going The Distance from Rocky
  9. Hal from Only Lovers Left Alive
  10. Hospital Chase from Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home

Really, that entire soundtrack was sparkling for someone they got because they couldn’t afford their first two choices. Put some respect on Leonard Rosenman’s name.

  11. Can You Dig It - Iron Man 3

Why is this in the movie? I don’t know, it sounds like it should be the theme to an 80s action show. It’s kicky though featuring elements from the Iron Man theme.

Okay, I’ll start one.

American cities with populations of more than 50,000 that are not connected to the Interstate Highway System. (Include the city’s population.)

  1. Fresno, CA (population 542,107 in 2020 census)

Soon US 59 will become IH 69, and Victoria will no longer make the list.

I was going to post Hempstead, probably one of the biggest towns that many people have never heard of, since I was there a few days ago, but @Intergalactic_Gladiator beat me to it. Babylon isn’t too far from it. Both towns are on Long Island, where the only interstate is I-495.

33

I’m sorry to be a nitpicker about rules but neither Hempstead, NY nor Babylon, NY qualify. Hempstead is only a town and not an incorporated city. However, the Village of Hempstead does have a population of 55,113 and would count. Babylon is likewise only a town and not an incorporated city and the Village of Babylon only has a population of 12,188.
