Okies.... what are your favourite Top 5 film soundtracks?

Still pondering on mine.... but they may include 'Saturday Night Fever', '2001', 'Electric Dreams', 'Star Wars IV'..... The Wedding Singer (great 80s soundtrack).

Top Gun (nothing quite says '**** you' to the guy in the car next to you at the light as well as Kenny Loggins ripping away about some sort of danger zone thing.)

Lord Of The Rings
Lord of the rings soundtrack (http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/25/)

I'm really surprised Preon hasn't made his way to this thread yet......
Anyway, some favorite composers:
Hans Zimmer (Gladiator, Crimson Tide, The Rock)
Basil Poledouris (Conan the Barbarian, Hunt for Red October)
Jerry Goldsmith (Star Trek, The Thirteenth Warrior, Rudy)
Danny Elfman (Beetlejuice, Sleepy Hollow, Edward Scissorhands, The Simpsons Theme Song)
John Williams (Schindler's List)
Howard Shore gets an honorable mention for the LOTR films, I'll be interested to see what he comes up with in future films.
-
Dude, for composers you're missing James Horner! Aliens, Wrath of Khan, etc.

Wrath of Khan has the best soundtrack out of all the ST films IMO.

Trainspotting. Gotta give it up for a soundtrack that gets everyone to like Iggy Pop (Lust For Life).

-
The Beach had a great track by Orbital in it.
Gladiator had a great theme tune that has been mixed into a funky dance track.
The Matrix used that superb Massive Attack tune.
I hate overly-sentimental music so Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan are particularly annoying.
-
Saur
You said
"Top Gun (nothing quite says '**** you' to the guy in the car next to you at the light as well as Kenny Loggins ripping away about some sort of danger zone thing.) "
LOL LOL if some joker pulled up beside me when I had my Goat, and that song was playing, I would be to busy laughing my bellybutton off, to race him.
I can just see me and my buddy in my Goat when some joker in a Porshe pulls up that song blaring, he revs it I look at my budy we both start cracking up.....
Great thread though!
