Conan: The Barbarian
Platoon
Predator
Aliens
Star Wars
Indiana Jones

As someone previousily mentioned. Conan had a great soundtrack that is hard to top. I also really enjoyed the Platoon soundtrack alot. "Adagio for Strings" has to be one of the BEST songs from a movie I can think of and overall the songs fit the era rather well. I can almost garuntee you that if you're talking to a Vietnam vet, they'll cry or murder someone if they hear "Sittin on the dock of a bay" by Otis Redding. Predator and Aliens also had good memorable soundtracks. My fifth and sixth choices may seem obvious, but I'm gonna go with Star Wars or Indiana Jones. Say what you will about George Lucas' crazy ass now, but back in the 70's and 80's he made great movies.

He didn't actually direct a single one of the Indy movies and only A New Hope in the Star Wars Original Trilogy. The soundtracks are the work of the legendary John Williams anyhow.

I stand corrected (well kinda). Thanks Spazmo. I was actually refering to Lucas art studio and such. Spielberg directed Indiana Jones ofcourse. Lucas was a screen writer/producer/executive producer/Story writer/Etc is what I ment to say instead of "Made good movies". One of those instances of "Say what you mean, not mean what you say" I suppose.

Speaking of which, any new news on the Indiana Jones movie front? Last I remember we were still in "George Lucas being an asshole" stage.

Fight Club has a pretty cool score.

Platoon eh? I was just puttin in my favorite original soundtracks. Berstein's Adagio for Strings is a very beautiful piece though.

I enjoyed the Lost Highway soundtrack
The Twin Peaks soundtracks were good too (TV show and Fire Walk With Me)
Also The Return Of The Living Dead soundtrack was for all of its charm

Those are my favs soundtrack wise.

Indiana Jones
Gladiator
Full Metal Jacket
Conan
Terminator
Pitch Black

Great soundtracks, I think Pitch Black takes 'em all on though.

The ravenous soundtrack is one of my favourites. Also the donnie Darko one is rather good.
Of the ones mentioned above I like: Full Metal Jacket, Lord of the rings.

Conan.

Escape from New York. John Carpenter wrote pretty darn good music for his movies before he lost touch. Who can forget the Halloween theme?

Dune. I'm no fan of Toto but that music combined with a great novel and David Lynch's directing is pretty eclectic mix that's potent nontheless.

Damn, I missed that one, cood call.

If anyone here has seen "Once Upon a Time in Mexico" they'd see how great that soundtrack is. Even "Master and Commander" had a good track.

Interview With The Vampire: Best soundtrack/score ever.

Janus Matchell · Post by **Janus Matchell** » Sat Aug 21, 2004 7:35 pm

Another soundtrack that was pretty good was Requiem For A Dream with music from Clint Mansell formerly from Pop Will Eat Itself. Another soundtrack that is great for atmosphere is Blade Runner.
