Really liked
Matrix reloaded soundtrack. Scenes where Neo fights the Smiths, and when he fights the three agents at the beginning are just sick.

Karate Kid part II also sticks with me for that. Shout out to Karate Kid part I for "Your the best"



How many of you have head banged to this song?



A loving heart is the truest wisdom.


Here are some of my favorites (yeah, I’m a huge Disney fan) :















I think most of the movie is kind of boring but I am rather fond of this song from Joel Schumacher’s Phantom of the Opera:

Saraghina's rumba in 8 1/2. Only movie soundtrack I've thought stood on it's own without the movie.

I'm still new so I can't post links yet, but I promise the clip you find on youtube is totally worth it.

Damn theres a lot of good stuff here, not sure if I'm repeating stuff people have already said or if I'm even adding anything to the thread but anything Tarantino does has a great sound track, Sorsese, Coppola (some of the musical work on The Godfather and AN was chilling).

Add to that the orchestral scores of Star Wars, LOTR, I could literally keep writing em down. Cinema has some great examples. I just wana move over to Japan for a bit with Studio Ghibli, in particular Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke having a great score.

Bright light. Bright light. Uh oh.
Glass composed a score for it all right, but that clip you have is obviously his version of Tchaikovsy's "Swan Lake", which was originally played (in a shorter version) over the opening credits.

Finished here. It's been fun.
Ennio Morricone creates amazing soundtracks for films, most notably Cinema Paradiso, Once Upon A Time in American and Once Upon A Time In The West.Truly beautiful,nostalgic music.
