Favorite Movie Soundtrack?

[Yara]

Well, I think you have done right, form your own opinion about it, perhaps you like it.

Taxi Driver. Just the drumming on that album is just like the building up of Travis' boiling point. The music goes along very well with the movie, and I think that's the biggest plus for any soundtrack.

 

[Thornmoon]

Pretty much anything by Danny Elfman... Also like Christopher Young. John Williams is da man!!!

 

[ouagadougou]

The Matrix Soundtrack has some good songs in it.. i wouldnt buy it, though, cause i have the best songs already..

 

[livingdead_girl]

I loved the Fellowship of the Rings, Attack of the Clones, and Star Trek Wrath of Kahn for instrumental soundtracks.

Others in general, I loved the Velvet Goldmine and Hedwig and the angry inch.

I just saw "Requiem for a dream" the other day and it had some good strings (I love strings!), but the thing that made me reconsider buying the soundtrack was the gross drums they smacked on top of the strings! Although I have previously been into hip hop, trip hop & house I've grown tired of that electronic synthetic sound and the drums on the "Requiem for a dream" soundtrack drags it down A LOT imo! Why can't they just have strings and no drums or if they have to have drums do like John Barry does when he very rarely has drums on his music nowadays, use a REAL drummer!!!! I think he orchestrated the drums very well on songs like "Fred & Cyd" & "Dance with reality". I have mp3'ed these songs, so they can be found at Kazaa if you wish. As you probably can hear I've grown tired of that sythetic sound! I just think it sounds stupid if I can clearly hear that it's a computer and not a person that plays what's on the record!

Natural Born Killers

[Goatfire]

The Thing and In The Mouth Of Madness by John Carpenter.

Soundtracks are a major part of my cd collection. Recently I had to get Attack of the Clones and Two Towers....

Favorites I have are: Lost Highway, Fellowship of the Ring and Velvet Goldmine. They are just perfect...no track that I don't skip.

 

[Celtic_Fox]

Most definetly the "Gladiator" soundtrack. Hans Zimmer is a genius and Lisa Gerrard has one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard. The final song on the soundtrack is magnificent.

Also, the first two soundtracks to the Lord Of The Rings are superbly done and very befitting the story I think. My favorite of the two is the Two Towers soundtrack. The Norwegian fiddle (violin, which seems to be the "theme" of this movie) in the Two Towers is gorgeous.

 

[Nachzehrer]

A Clockwork Orange. And I have already its soundtrack.

 

[diabolical vengeance]

The Omen, Braveheart, and The Godfather, i'm starting to get annoyed with certain aspects of the LOTR soundtrack (especially the main 'heroric' theme which keeps repeating, i'm so sick of hearing it.....)
