Original Film Scores....

[Voorhees27]

Terminator / Terminator 2 (Brad Fiedel) [Didn't like T3's score at all]
Batman Begins / The Dark Knight (Hans Zimmer & James Newton Howard)
Lord of the Rings Trilogy (Howard Shore)
Superman the Movie : John Williams
Batman / Batman Returns (Danny Elfman)
Edward Scissorhands (Danny Elfman)
300 (Tyler Bates) [I do need to get round to listening to the score it was allegedly plagiarized from though)
Pans Labyrinth (Javier Navarrete)
The Shawshank Redemption / The Green Mile (Thomas Newman)
Transformers the Movie (Vince DiCola)
Robocop (Basil Poledouris)
The Rock (Hans Zimmer) [ Love the track "Hummel Gets the Rockets"]

There's loads more, I generally listen to scores more than anything else now.

[My Lord]

I recently picked up Black Hawk Down, and can't stop listening to it straight through.

 

[Nocturne]

Blade Runner (Vangelis)

I feel really ashamed that I didn't put this in my original list, especially as Vangellis is the second highest artist on my Last.FM chart and it's all from the Blade Runner OST
My Last.FM Profile

 

[DinoLast]

I can't leave this one out.
I really love the soundtrack from Unbreakable

I'd add the soundtrack to Ravenous by Damon Albarn and Michael Nyman.

I came across this by accident on collector's site. Those of you who like LotR scores and live close to Radio City Music Hall might be interested......

[CelticPredator]

Not a film score...but the Gears of War 2 score is absolutely astounding!

[Nocturne]

Always thought the same about the original Metal Gear Solid Score

I can't remember much about the rest of the score, but love the track "To the Stars" by Randy Edelman from Dragonheart

[jimjimmyjones85]

Some time has passed... was wondering if there have been any new additions to the list... or new members input...

Would love to see.

 

[CelticPredator]

Best score of last year IMO was Star Trek. This year? Inception. Followed by the Predators score, and Iron Man 2.

 

[Mad Old Lu]

There Will Be Blood - Johnny Greenwood
Atonement - Dario Marianelli

 

[a-dev]

Didn't like the Star Trek score myself. I think it sounded more like a superhero theme than a space opera.

 

[wofford29]

The best score this year will be Black Swan.

 

[CelticPredator]

^ Clint Marshall does great stuff.

 

[meth head]

The best score this year will be Black Swan.

You think it will really beat Zimmer's Inception, i think thats untouchable this year for me
