But uh. Hm. I know a lot of people are gonna say Disney, so let's just get that out of the way haha.

Mad Max Fury Road had an amazing soundtrack. Like, freaking amazing.

The Young Indiana Jones series has a very expansive and lovely set of music to it. :)

This is a terrific soundtrack.  I like to listen to it when drawing sometimes.  Hans Zimmer did an awesome job on it.  It is from the movie, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron.  I've never seen it.

Which has now got a sequel series for some reason.

It has a sequel series?  I will watch it someday!  I want too.  It was one of the last traditionally animated films, so I really wanna see it.

And yeah. It's shit.  The sequel series on Netflix. God awful.

That's too bad that people who have no interest in the shows integrity take over and make awful spinoffs and sequels of good shows and films.

It's like. So weird. So many things wrong with it. Don't even think Dreamworks is in charge of it. But yep. Off topic though, back on topic.

Um. Steven Universe has a nice soundtrack.

I second this tenfold.

Hey Arnold has a good soundtrack.  Jim Lang did their music, and did a terrific job with deep moody tuns.

I fully agree.

I would agree to that 100%.

I've been listening to this often lately. I dunno why, it's just..... GREAT.

^ I'm going to start listening to that and see what happens.

Agreed, I listened to it.  One of the most fabulous soundtracks ever.  Bryan Adams does a good job in his songs, but the key is the instrumentals and the theme every song follows!  Very emotional!

(I listened to the entire score you posted of Spirit, and that is a lovely soundtrack.  Really deserves some attention for it's quality and feelings.  Lot of effort was put into that score, and you can tell.  Hans Zimmer obviously really got into that one, as did Bryan Adams.  His song, "Sound the Bugle" at about the 47 min mark in that video was stunning, deep, and even chilling.  Makes you want to break down.  Mr. Zimmer made free the open range and gave me the exhilarating feel of the open and wild west!  He also brought in action scores and truly deep saddening moments!  Beautiful score you guys.)

One of my favorite soundtracks of all time is the Forrest Gump scores.  Scored by the brilliant Alan Silvestri.  This was his breakout scores that will probably never be reproduced.  It was truly amazing.

Alan Silvestri? That’s the same guy who did the Delta Force theme I posted.

Forrest Gump had a great soundtrack, that’s undebatable. :)

Amazing how you can go from Delta Force, to Forrest Gump.  Some of these people are amazingly talented in the range of music they can write.

This part of this song from Monster's Inc, performed by Randy Newman comes close to the emotional factor for me as Forrest Gump's.  Would be curious if others agree.  I am not sure how well people know this song, but it always makes me think I should shed a tear.  It is impactful, though simple.  I love it, and it is one of my favorite bits in music.  Pixar has consistently had excellent composures.  Jump to about 1:10 and listen.  It's... awesome.  And it ends on a cliffhanger which always kills me.

That is an impactful song.  Good choice, Silver.

Not really. Some are surprisingly good. Some are despicable. But I've no favorites. Just ones that I think are good. :P

Alright.  If you got some "surprisingly good" ones you want to share, I will gladly listen to them while working in my workshop. ;D

One of the most stirring theme songs for anything out there is this composed by Ray Parker Jr., Jim Morgan, some other fine chap.


The Adventures of Tintin.  This theme music is absolute perfection. It has it all. Suspence, drama, a good taste of adventure, companionship and victory... It's a pure little gem and the very embodiment of everything that the comics were about.

My favorite soundtrack... hard one I have a few.
Like any soundtrack composed by John Williams, Hans Zimmer, James Horner, Harry Gregson-Williams and Danny Elfman.

Best Disney soundtrack song wise is Oliver & Company but music wise is Fantasia.

Best anime soundtrack is Ginga Nagareboshi Gin.

One of my favorite soundtracks by James Horner was the soundtrack for the Perfect Storm.  It makes me think of nautical maritime goodness!

James Horner did a lot of good music for movies, big ones too like Titanic and Braveheart and Avatar :3

I mean, just look at his resume on wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Horner (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Horner)

John Williams today announced he will only score one more Stars Wars film and then he is done doing them.  He has still never watched (http://www.businessinsider.com/star-wars-composer-john-williams-says-hes-never-seen-any-of-the-movies-2016-12) a Star Wars movie.
