    Default Favorite movie score?

    Recently, my favorite were the Spider-Man movie scores that played in the opening credits, heck I cried during the Spider-Man 3 opening credits, just looked awesome. But that changed when I saw the Avengers. The score played in the beginning of the credits, this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhvuU8r0EHk

    Makes me feel motivated to do anything. It fit so well in the movie too. What's your favorite movie score? Or am I the only one who pays attention to those things?

    I wish The Amazing Spider-Man had a good score, but it looks like it doesn't. :(

    1989 Batman. It was so good, it was used as the theme song for TAS.

    Oh that one. Oh my god. Yeah, I love that one. Once you hear it, you know "Batman". Which is why I loved Spider-Man's score because once you heard it, you knew it was Spider-Man.

    Price your book at $3.99 and I'll trade wait. Make me wait too long for the trade PAPERback and I'll say screw it. I'm looking at you Marvel and Spider Island.

    Once I heard Spider-Man's score I thought "it sounds too much like Batman."

    Best score is Conan the Barbarian. Followed by The Empire Strikes Back.

    It's very "Danny Elfmanish", for lack of a better descriptor. But whereas he came up with something that really sounds epic and dark and fitting for Batman, the Spidey-theme just never clicked for me. An orchestral version of the old cartoon theme would have been better.

    Pretty much anything Joe Hisashi has done. And I really liked Daft Punk's Tron Legacy score.

    Too many to name -- Mostly John Williams.

    Indiana Jones, Superman, Star Wars, Jaws, Heck, I don't like the Close Encounters of the Third Kind movie but the main theme kicks butt! Harry Potter...

    Forthe non-Williams -- Yeah, Elfman's Batman. Also, the criminally underrated Elfman score for the short-lived Flash TV show...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkC5xWOBBj4

    Let's see what else...

    Oh, "Last of the Mohicans" as well as the soundtrack to "Gettysburg" -- done by the same team BTW.

    And of course......


    THE ROCKETEER!

    I love the way the music builds and builds and builds to Cliff's takeoff in his racing plane.
