Ill get torn up for saying this, but I rank Morricones ' the Good, the Bad and the Ugly' just above LOTM. Very close, but the 'Ecstacy of Gold' when Tuco finds the graveyard and is mad with avarice, bears no equal. LOTM is intense however, THe music carrying the ending is strong.

I'd put "The Mission" and "Rob Roy" above LOTM in the soundtrack department; maybe "Lonesome Dove," too. |

I think LOTM is tops on soundtracks followed by the Titanic. |

I always thought the Braveheart soundtrack was very moving. |

Well, right up there with the LOTM soundtrack for me is the one from The Patriot. Also like the Star Wars music. John Williams is amazing.
Another favorite of mine is the soundtrack from The Mask of Zorro (the Banderas one). |

I loved the Titanic soundtrack and what a movie. The others mentioned are all good as well and definitely not "forgetable" any time soon.
Then there is always the wonderful Harry Potter soundtrack. You all probably could guess I would love that one and mention it. |

Let's not forget the soundtrack of "2001 Space Odessy." (however it's spelled) |

I just watched the UFC hostile territory and one of the fighters had the (lotm) music as his walking into the cage music. It kicked ass. And the guy won! |

My husband loves watching UFC fighting and I noticed the LOTM music too. Was very exciting when I heard it! |

Odyssey.
Absolutely! Relying on good, known classical music is always a good movie ploy and one that has been done many times. |

I'd rank the Gettysburg soundtrack above LOTM's. I loved the movie from the first notes of the soundtrack and the first sight of the old-time (though possibly farb) photographs. Also above LOTM: Ry Cooder's gorgeous, country/Celtic/folk score for The Long Riders.
Other great scores: Out of Africa, King Arthur, Crimson Tide, Master and Commander, The Hunt for Red October, The Mission, Black Robe. |

I just remembered another one from a recent movie that I really, really like. "Pride and Prejudice" (the Keira Knightley movie) is just beautiful.
I think I will have to purchase the "Master and Commander" soundtrack. I'm surprised that I haven't done that yet! |

Please don't be shocked, but one of my favorites soundtracks is from the movie BLOW. The movie takes place "back in the day" of my teen years, so every song initiates a memory (some good, some bad).
Whoa-o Black Betty, Bam-a-lam!
Another favorite is music from Chocolat! |
