Tron 2. Daft Punk without lyrics is perfect for me.

Oh Brother Where Art Thou is a good one.

A few of my favs, in no particular order:

• The Lord of the Rings trilogy
• Tron: Legacy
• Oblivion
• Gladiator
• Star Wars (especially Episode I)
• Interestellar

• Cosmos
• Blade Runner

Vangelis, enough said.

• The Good The Bad And The Ugly by Ennio Morricone

Trainspotting
Hackers
Atomic Blonde
Go
Grease
The Big Lebowski
The Crow

2001: A Space Odyssey. Ligeti scared the shit out of me as a kid, and I love it.

Dune (1984)

The Fifth Element

A few that spring to mind...

Vertigo
Psycho
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me
Mulholland Drive
All 3 LOTR films
Star Wars OT
Indiana Jones (especially Raiders)
The Sweet Smell of Success

Either Pulp Fiction or Judgment Night.

• Lock stock and two smoking barrels
• o’ brother where art thou
• tron (daft punk)

• Tron by Draft Punk
• Lord of the Ring
• Interstellar
• The Graduate

Guardians of the Galaxy 1 and Footloose are probably my favorites of all time. It's really hard to find soundtracks with a better collection of absolutely amazing songs imo.

My favorite is the soundtrack to Princess Mononoke, composed by Joe Hisaishi.

Koyaanisqatsi
Solaris (the remake)
Whiplash
Broken Flowers
The Fountain
Pirates ot Caribbean

Pump Up The Volume

Escape from New York.

Oldboy.

Already lots of LOTR & Tron: Legacy here. Not seeing much love for animated film scores, so on that note & in no particular order:

• How to Train Your Dragon trilogy, 1 is personal favorite
• Kung Fu Panda trilogy, 2 is so fucking good oh my god personal favorite
• The Lion King (1994)
• Spirited Away
• My Neighbor Totoro
• Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron
• The Super Mario Movie
• Finding Nemo
• Up

A couple of these have great soundtracks, too, but I do love a good score.

The score for Star Trek II: the wrath of khan is absolutely amazing

Highlander

Animatrix. It's been in my regular listening rotation for probably over 15 years now.

Haven’t seen anyone mention Cinema Paradiso or The Good the Bad and the Ugly. Both are wildly different. Ennio Morricone is a genius.

There’s also The Incredibles - Michael Giacchino The Greatest Showman - Various Artists
Saving Private Ryan - John Williams
The Prince of Egypt - Hans Zimmer
The Gospel of John - Jeff Dann (great middle eastern vibe)

To Live and Die in LA by Wang Chung is another great one that hasn't been mentioned yet

Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse

Not a movie but all 3 Beastars openings sound so good

Into the wild

Spawn The Album. Such great collabs! https://tidal.com/album/33972202?u

Hotline Miami, Doom and Sim City are game OSTs that also get a lot of play time. Honourable mentions for Dark Reign, Spirit Farer and This War of Mine

Velvet Goldmine

Lately, I've been listening to The Martian. I'm kind of a sucker for synthy orchestral compositions and that soundtrack is just so hauntingly beautiful.

Scream 3

Django unchained

American pie

Spiderman into the spider verse

Kill Bill Volume 2! And I like the Carol (2015) soundtrack (totally not a lesbian).

Lost Highway with lots of tracks from Angelo Badalamenti.

Hereditary solely for that ending banger. Or anything by Atticus Ross and/or Trent Reznor. I recently rewatched the Book of Eli and it feels dated, but THOSE SOUNDS.

Monsoon Wedding

Memories of Matsuko and Sakuran.

Buckaroo Banzai

Beauty and the Beast

But also I recently saw the comedy Bottoms, and thought Charlie XCX did a great job with that soundtrack

I just watched Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure yesterday and though the soundtrack is not original, the soundtrack made the movie.

The Mission 1986.

The Natural

Guardians of the Galaxy and Pulp Fiction 😍

Mine is from the 1996 anime film X. It is based on a CLAMP manga and goes much harder than the poster would lead you to believe.

X Movie Wikipedia

The soundtrack complements the tone perfectly with its experimental and unsettling atmosphere.

X Original Soundtrack

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy

Some of my favorites

Disney's animated Robin Hood - some amazing folk songs, o brother where art thou has a lot of great old timey/folksy songs too

The Third Man - the zither to end all zithers

anything by John Williams or Hans Zimmer for that big epic sound with recurring motifs- star wars, Indiana Jones, interstellar, etc

Baby Driver - lots of variety, the chase sequence with Hocus Pocus by Focus is amazing

The Blues Brothers - not just great blues, tons of soul, motown, etc with a lot of energy

The Guest - parody of '80s action/thriller style movies, soundtrack is lots of electronic & synth, feels a little like a darker version of the Drive soundtrack which is also great

A couple directors that have a very specific sound direction/profiles to them too are Wes Anderson, Quentin Tarantino, and John Carpenter.

Who is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe

X-files.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is my absolute fav.

Nightcrawler

Prince of Egypt

terminator 2

Rockers

Ghost Dog

Wildstyle

Soundtrack or score?

Soundtrack: Judgement Night. Paired hip hop artists with rock and metal bands. Biohazard and Onyx fucking tear it up. And Faith No More and Boo Yaa Tribe sounds incredible.

Score: Terminator 2. James Cameron is incredible about quality sound in his films. One of the best directors for sound in the biz.

Queen of The Damned' soundtrack is the GOAT. That cd was far better than the movie.
