Does anyone know any good scores - orchestra or soft is possible from some good movies?
my favourites are the gladiator and braveheart score follwed closely by apollo 13 and troy....
any thing like these would be awesome...any suggestions?

Chariots of Fire

The bladerunner score is pretty cool, plenty of cheesy synth.

LOTR

Black Hawk Down!

One of the best I've heard. It's best played while in a game of Diablo 2 or cs (inferno). Ah the memories ....

The 5th Element and Goldeneye by Eric Serra
Solaris by Cliff Martinez

Anything by Hans Zimmer, John Williams or Bernard Herrmann is pretty good.


Nice List

I listen to LOTR and Gladiator soundtracks at work, oh also Topgun!

I have the Spawn soundtrack at home as well, it rocks.

Anything Danny Elfman's done :D

The score from "Dead Man". I think Neil Young did it.

Oh, and Can't Stop the Music

Yeah elfman rocks

But my "short list" consists of

Batman
Batman Returns
Band of Brothers
Star Wars
Lord of the Rings
Gladiator
Back to the Future
2001 - A Space Odyssey
Bram Stoker's Dracula
Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Hero
Donnie Darko
Edward Scissorhands
Indiana Jones
Jaws
Jurassic Park
Master and Commander
Schindlers List
Signs
The Hulk
Superman
Terminator 2
The Last Starfighter
The Matrix

etc etc

Basically anything by Danny Elfman, John Williams or Hans Zimmer

though in Elfmans and Williams case I prefer all their earlier stuff, especially John Williams

The Bourne Supremacy by John Powell. Awesome soundtrack, and as said above, highly rate all John Williams, and the 3 LOTR soundtracks.

The special orchestra dvd that came with ROTK EE gift set is really awesome.

I agree any of the above composers mentioned are brilliant.

to name a few others scores..

Air Force One (jerry goldsmith)
Band of Brothers (michael kamen)
Crimson Tide (zimmer)
Jurassic park/lost world (williams)
Pearl Harbour (zimmer)
Remember the Titans (trevor rabin) - the promo cd which isnt available for retail. the OST only contained the 'Titan's Spirit' track which was the only instrumental track on the OST. the promo cd is the score.
Saving private ryan (williams)
Schindlers list (williams)
Sleepy Hollow (elfman)
Stargate (david arnold)
The Dish (composed by melb symphony orchestra)
LOTR 1,2,3 (howard shore)
The mission (ennio morricone)
Willow (horner)

I like:

Raiders of the Lost Ark
Aliens
Jurassic Park
Star Wars

Anything Danny Elfman's done

its like we are brothers

Vangelis is great in the 1492 soundtrack.

Spawn
The Crow
Underworld (the soundtrack is infinitely better than the movie)
American Psycho

On the flipside:
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. Yoyo Ma is brilliant.

All of Howard Shore's scores for LOTR

Anything by Hans Zimmer, John Williams or Bernard Herrmann is pretty good.
Anything Danny Elfman's done

And James Howard Newton. Peter Pan has some good music.

Resident Evil OST and Resident Evil: Apocolypse OST's are awesome!!

Spiderman_2_OST-2004

Danny Elfman, pretty good.

The UQ orchestra were performing the entire Star Wars soundtrack at Mayne Hall before it got gutted. I feel like an idiot for not going:/ I think it was the last time they used the pipe organ too.

i know several girls who play the pipe organ

Didn't they tear up the one at UQ?
