my character/movie-based playlists:

arisu ryohei (alice in borderland, 2020): sad japanese playlist for one of my fav characters from one of my favorite tv shows ever

arthur fleck (joker, 2019): 60's music that i felt really encapsulated arthur and his mental state in the first film.

joker: folie à deux (2024): i actually really like this movie and idk why people hate it so much, so i made a playlist that i think harley and arthur would've listened to together if they had ended up living together

beautiful boy (2018): songs that i feel represent both Nic and his father. rlly tragic, sorry.

chandler bing (friends, 1994): playlist i made right after matthew perry died (r.i.p. to a legend). i think chandler would love these songs and some of these songs are canon.

the substance (2024): not the kind of playlist you're thinking about. It's basically just 80's music that i think would be played during an old episode of 'Sparkle Your Life!'. It's basically just a glorfied jazzercise playlist.

charlie kelmeckis(the perks of being a wallflower, 2012): my idea of what charlie would have on his mixtape. Some songs are canon from the movie and book.

challengers (2024): i loved the soundtrack of this movie just as much as i loved the film itself. because of my almost overwhelming love for it, i decided to make a high energy playlist that i think could have just as easily been played in the movie alongside actual songs from the soundtrack.

dead poets society (1989): a collection of songs that i think really reflect the vibe of the film for me, not necessarily songs that would fit the time period.

donnie darko (2001): playlist that shows donnies declining mental state in the film.

mr.robot (2015): songs that i think elliot would enjoy but also describe his descent.

fight club (1999): songs for the narrator and how he feels during his 6 month bout of insomnia. this playlist is my personal favorite bcs i'm also an insomniac (twinning)

tony stark/iron man (marvel/MCU 2008-2019): literally my favorite character from the MCU ever. bcs of this i decided i NEEDED to make a playlist for him based on songs that i know he likes based on the movies and songs that i think he would like

glee (2009-2015): all my favorite songs from the series in release order simply bcs this is my favorite show of all time

the bear (2022): songs that i think carmy would listen to while yelling "behind!" at his chefs.

you (2018): songs that describe joe goldberg from you, not necessarily stuff he would like (he's much too pretentious to enjoy olivia rodrigo).

the batman (2022): everyone say "thank you robert pattinson" for providing us with the true version of batman: emo batman. my batman is a greasy weirdo that looks like he's about to burst out in tears all the time. in honor of this truly revolutionary movie i have created a playlist that this batman would listen to as he applies his ungodly amount of eyeshadow before terrorizing gotham city in a bat costume.

pearl (2022): a playlist that reminds me of the monologue scene in pearl where she says "i don't feel...well" because i really felt that. once again, not necessarily songs that match the time period or the characters potential interests.

lady bird (2017): lady bird is one of those movies where i'm pretty sure the director was in my house monitoring my daily movements for inspiration. naturally, i needed to make a playlist that i think completely captures the feeling of growing up with a not-so-healthy relationship with your mother.

gone girl (2014): a playlist based on the "cool girl" monologue and how it feels to feel forced to play a caricature of a woman just to for a man.

gone girl (2014): this time it's a nick dunne inspired playlist because unfortunately i relate to him (more so, book version nick). take that info how you will.

miles morales (spider-man: into the spider-verse, 2018): best spider-man, idc. ~ él es el mejor spider-man, no me importa.

jughead jones (riverdale, 2017): songs that i think jughead would have loved.

american psycho (2000): a mix of songs that patrick bateman would listen to in his headphones on his way to work and songs that i think describe him.

little women (2019): specifically this is a playlist based on how i think laurie felt during the famous scene where he confesses his feelings to jo.

fiona gallagher (shameless, 2011-2021): a playlist that i think represents how fiona feels as the older sister and neglected child that she is.

the iron claw (2023): songs that represent the tragedy of the story of the von erich family but also the beautiful bond of the brothers. Once again, these are not all time period accurate.

black swan (2010): a playlist based on nina. lots of swan references in the titles.

jake peralta (brooklyn nine nine, 2013-2021): i love andy samberg and i love jake peralta. he is my favorite character in another on of my favorite shows of all time so it's only natural that i create a playlist based on what i believe is on jake peralta's spotify. this is comprised of songs that are confirmed that jake likes on the show and also songs from taylor swift bcs that is jakes favorite artist and some songs that i think jake would like.

jay gatsby (the great gatsby, 2013): songs that i think represent gatsby's mental state while waiting for daisy to come to one of his parties

bones and all (2022): this playlist was actually made by my friend in slideshow form and then i copied her and made into a spotify playlist

the little prince (2015): i absolutely loved this movie and book when i experienced it for the first time in highschool so i decided that it was high time i make a playlist dedicated to the story.

taxi driver (1976): a mix of songs based on the time period, things that travis bickle would listen to while driving, and songs that encapsulate the movie.

nightcrawler (2014): songs that represent lou bloom, not necessarily songs he would listen to because i don't actually believe he would listen to music on his own.

peeta mellark (hunger games, 2012): ,ovies i think peeta would either enjoy, or capture his personality and plight throughout the movies.

may december (2023): i love this movie SO MUCH, so i ofc had to make a dedicated playlist. it's through the perspective of joe ofc.

eternal sunshine of the spotless mind (2004): playlist based on the rocky relationship between clementine and joel.

mother (2020): for those who don't know, this is a japanese film based on a true story about a toxic mother and her relationship to her son. so this playlist is based on the perspective of the son, shuhei.

clay jensen (13 reasons why, 2017): playlist that clay would listen to in between tapes.

girl, interrupted (1999): a playlist loosely based on the mindset of the character of daisy

peter parker/spider-man (spider-man, 2002): i never see any love for tobey maguire's spider-man and that ends today bcs he's one of my favorite versions of spider-man. so i've created a playlist that i think tobey's version of spider-man would dance to in the streets, venom/symbiote style.

prisoners (2013): unsettling and melancholy playlist inspired by this film and the perspective of detective loki, one of the main characters.

rush hour trilogy (1998-2007): if lee and carter had a shared mixtape, it would have all these songs on it.

sam evans (glee, 2009): another one of my favorite playlists bcs i'm just so proud of it. like, absolutely sam would love this playlist. i included some glee versions of songs he sang, but only ones that i liked better than the original.

sound of metal (2019): songs that i feel express ruben's reaction to his deafness and his struggle to accept change.

troy bolton (high school musical, 2006): i absolutely LOVE this franchise and so i think i'm qualified to say that troy bolten would love himself some 2000's rnb. This is why i've taken upon the burden and pleasure of making him a playlist that he would jam out to.

scott pilgrim vs. the world (2010): songs inspired by sex bob-omb and the overall playful vibes of the movie.

good will hunting (1997): these are songs that i think will would include in his rotation or songs that represent the journey that will takes during the movie.

the hunt (2012): this was a very tragic movie about a man who suffers greatly based on a false accusation. one of my worst fears is not being believed when i haven't done anything. truly there is nothing worse than injustice and with this selection of songs i tried to convey the dread, sadness, and overwhelming rage that the main character, lucas, felt when everyone he knew turned on him.

mother (2020): playlist based off the japanese drama movie i watched about the toxic relationship between mother and son. you'll probably relate to this playlist if you have mommy issues.

romeo & juliet (1996): songs that encapsulate the tragedy of their relationship. yes 'exit music (for a film)' by radiohead is involved.

the holdovers (2023): this is my actual family. lots of 60's and 70's music.

christopher moltisanti (the sopranos, 1999): one of my favorite characters from the show bcs he's unfortunately very relatable to me. mostly based on what he said in the first season, "it's like the regularness of life is too hard for me." I get that.

abigail armstrong (dance academy, 2009): based on a quote from season 1 where she said "you all want me to fail." Abigail has this need to be perfect and she feels like she's all alone, so i thought that I would turn those feelings into a playlist bcs i can relate.

tara and christian (dance academy, 2009): based off the tumultuous relationship between main characters, tara and christian. based off the quote from season 3 where tara says to christian "i just want so badly to be rid of you". even if you don't know the show, i hope you can enjoy the sad break up playlist of it all.

wanda maximoff (mcu, 2015): she be sad and crazy and stuff
