Good movies with good scores

[Clutch]

I saw the bad movies with good scores thread and was gonna post there, but I happen to think this is a good movie.

I just bought the soundtrack to The Ninth Gate and love it as much as the movie. Of course the whole thing is on youtube, so get out your good headphones and give it a listen.

The first track gives me the chills.

The Omega Man soundtrack, the POTA soundtrack.

Kick-Ass! Probably my favorite score from recent movies.

I thought Sunshine had an awesome soundtrack. Especially the one song that happens with Kappa in the airlock.

"Ink" has an awesome score for it. Loved it so much I bought the soundtrack on iTunes.
Here's a pretty cool scene from the movie.

Superman, Batman, BTTF

How to Train Your Dragon.


Not a movie, but I dig the Firefly soundtrack too...

Wow... This is a hard one to do, especially since some of the ones I would have chosen has already been posted (such as the soundtracks for Unbreakable and Sunshine).

One that I have to say John Murphy is pretty good. One of the most haunting pieces to me is In The House, In a Heartbeat from the 28 Days Later soundtrack.

The soundtrack to Run Lola Run (Lola Rennt) is another one. From the Introduction track to the Casino track are just awesome. Heck, even tracks that were composed as full on songs are just awesome. My favorite track is Running 3.

David Julyan's work on The Descent and Memento are another two sets that are amazing.

Can't believe I forgot 5th Element. Serra's scores were awesome how almost each song is a alternate take on different cultures like reggae and arabian etc. Clever. Protect Life has to be one of the most emotional instrumental scores in movies, to me anyways.

2001,blade runner, and 2010

Patton

"Lawrence of Arabia"
Surprisingly, the original "Conan"

 

[terryr]

The original Conan theme is one of the most re-used songs ever.

I'm listening to Kung Fu Panda. They took some effort to sound classically Chinese.

I'm a big fan of Basil Poledouris and Clint Mansell!

 

[Jodo Kast 3]

Flash Gordon.




Lots O Queen!!!!!!

The war rocket ajax jam is probably the finest in movie history.

I forgot one... A really awesome one... Philip Glass' score for Koyaanisqatsi.

The moment you heard the opening track for the opening scene, it hooks into you and doesn't let go.
