Stop me if we've done this before, but by far the "Almost Famous" Soundtrack has to be the best one, followed by "Forest Gump" anyone else???

I always loved the taxi driver soundtrack, i think its aboslutely beautiful..

the Garden State OST is magic as well, some terrific stuff on it from the Shins and Zero 7 and Nick Drake on it..

I don't like Pulp Fiction. Alot of the songs on it really annoy me and yet everyone tells me it's great.

I think Lock, Stock is a really good one.

"The Mission" by Morricone.
"Midnight Express" by Moroder are 2 that spring to mind

Vanilla Sky - lots missing off the OST release though.

As for scores, I loved the Village soundtrack from last year.

The sound of assault rifle shots and shell casings tinkling to the ground in Heat is all I need. Never got to see it on the big screen though, it must've been incredible with a cinema sound system.

Ive been listening to the Garden State soundtrack for the last few weeks and have to agree its class. Hadnt heard of most of the bands until I saw the film but had to get the soundtrack as soon as Id seen the movie.

Most soundtracks from Tarantino's movies are up there too.

Ennio Morricone was a genius, and Giorgio Moroder was when he did Midnight Express. :D

Damn fine soundtrack, damn fine movie.

House Of 1000 Corpses has a fantastic soundtrack. All composed by Rob Zombie, very atmospheric, if eventually somewhat repetitive.

I would have to disagree with you on that one.
Pulp Fiction is my favourite film and the soundtrack is brilliant aswell.
Almost Famous soundtrack is good(tiny dancer-what a song),Braveheart,Trainspotting,Blow,Gladiator,Rome o and Juliet,Michael Collins,Lock Stock,Layer Cake all good aswell.

Trainspotting but 24 Hour Party People soundtrack looks class. Also liking the sound of 'Unleashed' soundtrack by Massive Attack, not a bad film but the soundtrack sounds great.

Best movie sound track: undoubtedly JAWS. The film celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. Must have watched it 30+ times. A classic.
