Best Soundtrack albums....

Tarantino stuff is given. Soundtracks to Mean Streets, Goodfellas, Casino, and The Departed are aces. Scorsese sure loves the Rolling Stones, especially Gimme Shelter. Repo Man has a class soundtrack as well. I thought the soundtrack to Smokin Aces was pretty good...
 
I like the soundtrack for morvern callar but can't get hold of it... bloody £18 on amazon they can get lost.

My favourite is 101 Reykjavik

Good soundtrack - shit film.

Another example of which is American Gangster. Jay-Z at his sleaziest finest - shame the movie couldn't be a bit better.

Another one for Natural Born Killers. That's top of the pile for me with From Dusk 'Til Dawn a close second. After Dark, Hayek and that snake :eek::cool:

Singles is a good one too.
 
Another one for the Trainspotting, Blade Runner and Sofia Coppola (forgot about Air doing Virgin Suicides) bandwagon.

Also, A Clockwork Orange is awesome. I'd say Tron too, but it has Journey. Futuristic flick. Journey. *Does not compute*

And of course:

Even if he's of the loony cult :(
 
I'll always have a soft spot for 'Midnight Cowboy' soundtrack but i'm currently loving 'The Big Lebowski'....The Gipsy Kings version of 'Hotel California' makes me giggle :D
 
Another vote for Natural Born Killers.
My favourite film and soundtrack, has been since the first time I saw it.

Liked many of those listed above like Juno, O Brother Where Art Thou?, The Big Lebowski and Blade Runner....

My favourite score has to be The Good The Bad & Ugly ...the remastered version is amazing

Ennio Morricone-L'Estasi Dell'oro The ecstacy of gold - stunning piece .... love the way it builds up - starts at 50 seconds in

http://kr.youtube.com/watch?v=an1hkYf1KDY


My movie music likes are very very different to my usual listening material although I do enjoy Ennio Morricone if Im stressed in the traffic for some reason....
 
Performance (Cooder/Newman/Jagger et al)
Once upon a time in the West (Morricone)
Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (Dylan)

This is my favourite soundtrack ever.
 
The Withnail & I s/t is great, if only for the sax version of A whiter Shade of Pale at the beginning. also Hang Out the Stars in Indiana, which is a lovely song.

some of the incidental music is pretty good, too. and Withnail's Theme is a cracker.
