Audiotuts Preferred Soundtracks

25 Greatest Movie Soundtracks - Audiotuts

For my part, I think movie scores and soundtracks should be separated. Just thinking about what leaps to mind...

Some of my favorite scores are Lawrence of Arabia, Star Wars, Psycho, Brick, The Lord of the Rings

Some of my favorite soundtracks are Garden State, Boogie Nights, Wayne's World, 2001: A Space Odyssey, O Brother Where Art Thou?

There are many others. The ones I like I guess are pretty showy. There's another school of thought that says a score fails if it draws attention to itself. I don't think that's true, but there is something to be said for scores that support rather than lead.
