Movie Themes that Stick With You
« on: September 25, 2010, 07:48:51 PM »
Movie music: Sometimes even in great movies it makes you go :huh (I'm looking at you, Ladyhawke). But there's some soundtracks out there that are just so PERFECT that all you need to hear is the first few notes to bring everything that movie meant to you right to mind.

One of my favorites

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

When the game is over, the Kings and Pawns all go into the same box.

Anything that has the sound of James Horner, Danny Elfman, Alan Silvestri, John William, Hans Zimmer, Harald Kloser, Marco Beltrami... etc   :aok
There are so many I don't have a favorite yet.

But if I have to find something that gets stuck is this one: Pretty close to the OP

Edit: I forgot James Newton Howard...

My Favorite from Excalibur

Actually, that predates the movie by a good 45 years.

800 if you want to include the date the poems themselves were written...

Our school's band played that in eighth grade, and man was it awesome to be playing the bass drum!  I could feel the sound go through my chest each time I hit it.  BOOM... KA-BOOM!  BOOM... KA-BOOM!
