Name That Movie Trailer Tune

Here's a fun site to help ease your coming-attraction anxiety on the fam's next trip to the movies. PopCandy points us to Sountrack.net, a database of motion picture trailers and the songs used therein. Fun way to kill some time, and an even better way to impress a date with your music-trivia acumen (a day after the fact). Or a great means to random trivia games. Like ... what song was used in the theatrical trailer to The People Vs. Larry Flint? Answer after the jump.

"Dream Weaver" by Gary Wright. If you got that right, congrats! You're close to being the losers we are.

All right. I've been reading the comments that people leave about how Stereogum used to be this and used to be that, and I've always been like, "Ah, whatever. News is news." But soundtrack.net? Seriously? Welcome to like, 1998, otards. I realize it's something of a slow news day, but get out of your Wayback Machine. Dammit.

I think the problem was that I was doing that while typing. I'm an angry fornicator.

I believe the only song used for soundtracks from 1999 - 2003 was Hero by Chad Kroeger, a song that sounds slightly more grating than a chimpanzee with Tourette's.
