re: greatest movie scores

this market is cornered

Raiders of the Lost Ark

Star Wars (the version of the original score they play during the trench run...epic)

Empire Strikes Back (hands down the best, built upon the original score but added the iconic "imperial march", and my personal favorite was boba fett's music in cloud city.)

Jurassic Park

E.T.

Gladiator

Jaws

Temple of Doom

Halloween (and to think john carpenter came up with this himself on a piano with a couple of keys)

The Phantom Menace (it's too bad the movie sucked because the score was crazy good, better than jedi)

The Dark Knight

there are so many, but really John Williams owns this category and Hans Zimmer is his robin


now if we're including musicals, then the Wizard of Oz gets on here easily. Other scores I love

To Kill a Mockingbird
Ghostbusters
Batman
Gone with the Wind
Psycho
Lawrence of Arabia
