Rogue One. First time I saw it I was sure no one could hold a candle to John Williams. Then I watched it again and the way Michael Giacchino uses a half-step to underline the theme of hope gives me chills just remembering it.

-
Reservoir Dogs / Pulp Fiction / Kill Bill
-
Stand By Me
-
Dirty Dancing
-
The Lost Boys
Conan the Barbarian
Resident evil
Dred 2012
Redline
The blade runner soundtrack is my go to relax soundtrack. Have listened to it thousands of times by now.
I was just watching Tenet last night and the music kind of took me out of it sometimes because I was like, “Fuck, that music sounds awesome”, though not sure how well it will stand on its own, I’ve not tried that yet.
Godzilla 1998
Varsity Blues
Into The Wild
Lots of good ones here, I'll add some that haven't been mentioned: Sahara, Rango, both Sherlock Holmes movies, Scott Pilgrim vs The World, the JJ Abrams Star Trek's, The Incredibles, Godzilla 2014, The Road to El Dorado
- Yellow Submarine (I think a lot of people either forget this movie exists, or write it off as a kids movie. You're missing out on a movie that could be considered as revolutionary to animation as the Beatles were to music.)
- Back to the Future
- The Muppet Movie
- School of Rock
- Bladerunner
- The Matrix
There's probably other's, but that's what immediately comes to mind.
Tombstone and Almost Famous for me
The Third Man has that fantastic zither theme.
I don't know that I could pick one, but Joe Hisashi's Studio Ghibli sound tracks are done of my favourites
This is an old one, but:
The Mission, scored by Ennio Morricone.
The Scream 3 soundtrack is one of my favorites and was my introduction to System of a Down.
yup! and finger eleven
Monsoon Wedding
Lord of the Rings
Pretty in Pink - Pure 80s.
Atomic Blonde
I'm not seeing Oppenheimer mentioned , perhaps I'm in the minority here.
Judgement Night - some of the greatest hip-hop & metal crossover songs ever made.
interstellar, interstella5555, gladiator
Batman Forever
The Decline of Western Civilization
Easy rider
- Schindler's List
- Requiem for a Dream
- Independence Day
Swingers has a great oldies/crooner soundtrack.
Yeah American Psycho does have a good soundtrack. Eyes Without a Face is great.
My vote is for Interstellar or some of the other Hans Zimmer ones
Shrek 2, unironically
Also Sucker Punch and Tron Legacy
Bohemian Rhapsody
The wackness - iconic 90s hip hop songs
28 days later - introduced me to post rock vibes
Oh just my thing.
- Summer Wars
- Kikojiros Summer
- Dunkirk
- Inception
- Desert Rose
I have a lot of these on my shortlist. More series and even way more videogames
The Abyss really does something for me, can’t quite put my finger on it
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen has a fantastic soundtrack. Can really push a system to its limits.
The Last of the Mohicans Once heard, you cannot escape its beauty.
