I've run dry! I'm more for cartoon/anime/video games scores 'cause I don't watch many flicks.

Edward Scissorhands- Danny Elfman
The Empire Strikes Back- John Williams
Blade Runner- Vangelis
Akira- Shoji Yamashiro
Batman- Danny Elfman

I'll have to think about the last one.

These were done by Hans Zimmer. Guys got some versatility. He can go from this to Gladiator to Lion King.

No order
Sunshine - John Murphy
Dark Knight - Hans Zimmer
28 Days Later - John Murphy
Children of Men - John Tavener
Terminator 2:Judgement Day - Brad Fiedel
Inception - Hans Zimmer

I'm mostly into minimalistic scores but occasionally I like the big epic ones. Gotta make Danny Elfman an honorable mention. No score of his sticks out at an all time favorite though. As much as I love him all his music sounds similar. I always know when he did a movie.

Back To The Future
Batman Beyond
Batman Beyond: Return Of The Joker
Army Of Darkness
Ghostbusters
Ghostbusters II

Vince DiCola - The Transformers: The Movie
Chu Ishikawa - Tetsuo: The Iron Man

And, uh, I dunno. Haven't thought far beyond that. ;) I don't usually like orchestral scores.

But tonight I was thinking about the scores for RoboCop and The Terminator. Those could possibly be in my top five. I dunno. :o

John du Prez' score for the first Turtles movie is another standout.

Gonna hafta think on this a bit further.
