Best movie soundtracks

[Lee]

Geez just when I think of a few more, they get mentioned.
The opening theme to Johnny English is damn catchy.

yeah i know what you mean. After this topic got mentioned I checked My CD collection for Movie Soundtracks,  and discovered 3 that I hadn't mentioned-
Gross Point Blank, Mallrats- The weezer song in it is awesome, plus the sound bites make it enjoyable. and last of all Run Lola Run.

I thought the soundtrack of "Crocodile Dundee" was cool. The aussie style of the music as original, compared to a lot of the stuff current at the time.

Quadrophenia..I hope I spelled that right. I loved this movie. It had a young Sting in it. Music by The Who.

I mostly like song-related soundtracks:

Bullets Over Broadway  (great mix of 1920s originals and excellent remakes of songs of that era)

Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas  (links between cuts are Johnny Depp reciting various Hunter Thompson-inspired reveries from the book/film)

O Brother Where Art Thou?  (just great folk stuff)

Cold Mountain (haven't even seen the film -- and don't plan on it -- but the music is fantastic -- Jack White of the White Stripes does 5 songs on it, all acoustic, some of'em traditional)

Just looked over my collection and realised I have upwards of 40 soundtracks in my collection.  That's more than I have DVD's!

I've found that The Coen Brothers and Tarantino soundtracks are consistantly good.  Out of them my favourites are: Oh Brother Where art thou and Jackie Brown.

I like David Arnolds stuff [does the recent Bond films]  Harry Gregson-Williams [The Rock] and have found Eric Serra's stuff to be interesting as well [Fifth Element, Goldeneye]

Personally, my favourite soundtracks out of the lot are: The Jackal, Ocean's 11 [New Version] Run Lola Run, Swordfish, The Animatrix, Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within Casino and Donnie Darko.

Long list, I know, but I love my movies, and my soundtracks!

How the hell did I forget to mention O, Brother Where Art Thou?  Great movie, great soundtrack.
