soundtracks - Page 3

I'm a little embarassed I didn't list these earlier:

Phillip Glass:

Koyaanisqatsi
Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters
Kundun
Powaqqatsi
Naqoyqatsi
The Truman Show (1998) (which uses music from Powaqqatsi and Mishima)
The Hours
Secret Window
Candyman
The Illusionist


All are real stunners.

Other notables:

Conan the Barbarian
Conan the Destroyer
West Side Story
Purple Rain
American Graffiti
Trainspotting
Fantasia
Robin Hood
O Brother, Where Art Thou?
Singles
Magnolia
Tommy
Out of Africa
The Virgin Suicides
Good Will Hunting

Romeo & Juliet (the Baz Luhrmann one) introduced me to Radiohead and for that I'll always be thankful

I would love to get my hands on a copy of that soundtrack but I can't seem to find it for sale anywhere less that £40! Would anyone like to lend me a copy??

My favourite soundtrack is Koyaanisqatsi. In fact the film is basically a soundtrack in itself...

Yeah, I was just about to ask "where's the Philip Glass love?"
But since he's now been mentioned: Where the hell is the love for Danny Elfman?! C'mon people!

My fave's:

Philip Glass - The Music Of Candyman, The Illusionist

Clint Mansell - Requiem For A Dream, The Fountain

Danny Elfman - The Nightmare Before Christmas (of course), Edward Scissorhands (of course, again).
And though it's not a soundtrack, Danny's new album "Serenada Schizophrana" is easily the best thing he has ever put out. It's simply AMAZING! As you may guess, it's still pretty soundtrack-esque.

Hans Zimmer - Gladiator (I'm not really a fan of Zimmer, and not a huge fan of this OST either, BUT, the track "The Battle" alone makes this OST a favorite. That track is so excellent it's not even funny).

John Carpenter - Halloween (the original), The Fog
Giorgio Moroder - Midnight Express


Anybody got the soundtrack for Videodrome btw? I've been looking for that one for ages.

Trevor Jones - From Hell
Danny Elfman - Sleepy Hollow
John Williams - Memoirs of a Geisha
Tan Dun - Hero

are my favourites

Ditto this one. I was waiting for the price to drop, 'cause $40 is just too much. It drifted out of mind - and now you can't buy it anywhere! I still remember hearing it in the cinema, those chiming sounds and ultra-low bass-lines...

Garden State
The Last Kiss
Snatch
Pirates of the Caribbean : Curse of the Black Pearl
Star Wars (all 6 film soundtracks)
Master and Commander
Reservoir Dogs ("Little Green Bag" and "Stuck in the Middle with You" FTW!)

Firstly, complete albums that I love

Snatch (Best soundtrack ever)
Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Kill bill 1 & 2
MI-2
Oh Brother Where Art Thou (Best soundtrack ever...oh I said that already)
Road To Perdition
American Beauty
Garden State
School of Rock, Almost Famous
The Matrix
Any classic Tom and Jerry cartoon by Fred Quimby, Chuck Jones

Now, Best main themes

Signs (One of the best Intro themes ever)
Star Wars
LOTR
Superman (The older ones)
Batman (TV series)
Swat cats, Duck Tales,

Hmm.. those are what come to my mind immediately...

Hans Zimmer is a great composer for soundtracks. He also did Black Hawk Down and Rain Man, which is a great movie with Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman. Dustin Hoffman was the autistic brother of Tom. Great acting in it. I like Gladiator the best out of the movies though.

Other soundtracks I like:

Meet Joe Black
LOTR
Moulin Rouge
Harry Potter-orchestral version
Star Wars
