    Default Top 10 Movie Soundtracks

    What's yours? These are not really in any order, but I'd have to say LOTR wins it.

    1) Lord of the Rings Trilogy
    2) Gladiator
    3) Braveheart
    4) 13th Warrior
    5) Star Wars Trilogy
    6) Pulp Fiction
    7) Last of the Mohicans
    8) Spawn/Judgment Night
    9) Gangs of New York
    10) Jaws

    Cool Re: Top 10 Movie Soundtracks

    I really like good soundtracks and have a decent collection. Here is my shot at a top 10 (in order):

    1) The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
    2) Star Wars (the first one, later entitled "A New Hope")
    3) Gettysburg
    4) Raiders of the Lost Ark
    5) The Empire Strikes Back
    6) Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan
    7) Glory
    8) Patton
    9) Jaws
    10) Rocky

    I'd have to say that the first two (LotR & Star Wars) are perhaps as near perfect soundtracks that you can get. As soundtracks they excel, but also as simply music, there is hardly a track I'd even consider skipping. Many soundtracks have a great theme or two and the rest of the "music" seems to be almost random notes to match the movie, but not the first two soundtracks on my list.
    I've a sneaking suspicion I'm missing a few soundtracks, but there you have my list as it stands right now.

    Hoooh, this is a challenge! OK, let me see if I get them all together…

    1) Blade Runner, Vangelis
    2) Cowboy Bebop (Anime, but still a marvelous soundtrack!)
    3) Star Wars Trilogy (And most of the John Williams stuff)
    4) Gladiator
    5) Odyssey 2001
    6) 1492 Conquest of Paradise, Vangelis
    7) Tiger and Dragon
    8) Last Samurai
    9) Pulp Fiction
    10) Blade

    Also a worthy soundtrack, yet it does not fit here; Fallout CRPG soundtrack, one of the greatest in-game soundtracks I’ve ever heard!

    Am I missing anything!?! 100 %!

    Good ones boys, Conquest of Paradise and Raiders of the lost ark have awesome soundtracks also dead presidents (due to the great soul music) and Menace to Society(great rap and hip hop on there)

    1. The blues brothers
    2. The commitments
    3. The buddy holly story

    Though I guess these have an unfair advantage over others in that the music is performed as part of the movie...

    Well as far as traditional movie soundtracks go, LOTR trilogy wins hands down, and after that the original Star Wars trilogy. And while I'm not sure if it's a Sound track per se, Almost Famous would come in first, because it has pretty much all of my favorite bands in there somewhere. (Zeppelin, Skynyrd, Allman Bros., Who), etc. Not to mention the sweet original music.

    In no particular order...

    The Last of the Mohicans
    Lord of the Rings
    Star Wars (the original trilogy)
    Gladiator
    We Were Soldiers
    Pink Floyd - The Wall
    1492: Conquest of Paradise
    Raiders of the Lost Ark
    Gangs of New York
    Glory

    I also agree about Fallout having the bast in game music of any CPRG! Fallout 2's soundtrack was excellent as well.
