dAVe80 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Ghost Dog always sticks in my mind. RZA is a genius though, in my opinion. Dollars Trilogy obviously. I know it's a musical, but The Blues Brothers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milfner Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Drive Beat me to it. Reckon it's my favourite film I've seen so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted December 6, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 6, 2012 Dirty Harry (Most of Schifrin's stuff is superb, but Scorpios Theme beats all) Once Upon a Time in the West / America (Morricone has to be in there, the pure brilliance and sense of humour in his scores is incredible) Assault on Precinct 13 (in fact most early Carpenter) Haywire and Out of Site (David Holmes continues to morph himself into a new age Schifrin) Psycho, Cape Fear, Taxi Driver (Bernard Herrmann) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunRickyRun Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Mean Streets has a great soundtrack - especially the drunk scene and The Ronettes at the start of the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted December 6, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 6, 2012 A whole soundtrack is tough. Drive would defintiely be on the list. Pulp Fiction is probably a bit cliché, but it's bloody good! I'm of the opinion that the Jurassic Park theme is the best piece of movie music ever. it does something to me. But I wouldn't vouch for it's whole soundtrack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelle Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Well, I won't surprise anyone when I say Highlander. But also Young guns 2. That album was very good, although only two, and far from the best two, made it to the film. The good, the bad, the ugly. Braveheart. Star Wars. LOTR. And I too really liked the theme of Jurassic Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted December 6, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 6, 2012 Also: Game, Set and Match (80s TV spy series, music by Richard Harvey) The Harder They Come (Jimmy Cliff, Toots, etc. - the only sort of reggae I like much) For a Few Dollars More (Morricone) Shaft (Isaac Hayes) The Beyondness of Things (John Barry - cheating a bit - it was his music for "The Horse Whisperer", but they didn't use it!) American Graffiti (although this is really just a 50s rock'n'roll compilation) Ascenseur pour l'echafaud (Miles Davis) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
