for recent stuff, Sherlock Holmes from Hans Zimmer sounds pretty sweeet...obvious rip off from Morricone/De Roubaix though.

For me I like these soundtracks; Pearl Harbor, The Rock, Broken Arrow, Requiem for a Dream, The Last of the Mohicans, Gladiator, Titanic, and Crimson Tide are ones I can think of right now.

Hi, this is excellent topic. I am also a big fan of soundtracks, so here are my recommendations 
 
Atli Orvarsson - Babylon AD
Atli Orvarsson - Vintage Point (favorite)
Hans Zimmer - Crimson Tide
Barry Lyndon - Various artists
Jasper Kyd - Hitmans (from all 3 parts of game)
 
Atli Orvarsson is a composer from Iceland, with style similar to Zimmer's, with big attention for details. These 2 works are a perfect blend of classical and electronic music (also well produced).
 
hope y'all will like it

I like the music from the following movies:
 
Havanna
 
Braveheart
 
Titanic
 
Robinhood, Prince of Thieves
 
The music from "Havanna", done by Dave Grusin is especially powerful/

 

[Nakattack]

Any of the Ghibli Studio movies, but in particular Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke. Some beautiful stuff there by Joe Hisaishi.

 

[Sanveann]

"Last of the Mohicans," "Gladiator" and "Dances With Wolves" are among my all-time favorites.

 

[Audio-Omega]

The Lord of The Rings.  The complete recordings are even better.

O Brother Where Art Thou, if you can dig some bluegrass.

^ love the music in O Brother Where Art Thou
 
I agree with the Tron: Legacy soundtrack being awesome!!
 
Just watched The Social Network again and really liked that soundtrack..

 

[yliu]

x2 for Tron: Legacy Soundtrack!
Avatar, and Transformers (both 1&2, but I like 1 better) are great too that's not been mention here.

 

[Confispect]

I like the Tron soundtrack...after another listen, on the Bluegrass thing I'll have to give it a listen never really was into it....but then I said that about MD.
 
 
Edit: Dum keyboard.

The O! Brother soundtrack is wonderful - pick up the SACD version if you can find it.

In the same vein, see if you can find the soundtrack to an obscure little movie released in '97 called "Traveler." It's a terrific movie and well worth putting in your Netflix queue, as well. Bill Paxton put the soundtrack together. It's a collection of contemporary country singers covering classic country songs. Jimmie Dale Gilmore knocks off some Lefty Frizzell and the standout is Randy Travis' cover of "King of the Road."

I might take some heat for this, but I think I like Travis' version better than Miller's original. The rest of the disc is well worth listening to, as well. I've had this soundtrack in my rotation for 13 years. It's that good.

Anyone think the noise floor on the TRON: Legacy Soundtrack is too high?
