Great Film Soundtracks/OST Cd's

[real4star]

Are there any recommended movie soundtracks worth buying on CD?

Not sure if you can get it on cd but The Intouchables has a great soundtrack

Hi, would recommend :

Natural Born Killers
Get Carter
Ill Manors.

[Z06George]

Off the top of my head...
The Dark Knight
Batman (Danny Elfman score)
Gladiator
Blackhawk Down
Battle: Los Angeles
The Lion King
Days of Thunder
Tears of the Sun
Top Gun
Rocky
Halo (Granted it's a game but still great)
Crimson Tide
Star Wars
The Rock

I could go on for pages as there are a lot more but to keep it simple you can't really go wrong with people like Hans Zimmer, Danny Elfman or John Barry.

Good call. Also tron legacy ost.

[Zad]

Trainspotting

[Halmyre]

Blade Runner. It was unavailable for years, except in an 'orchestral' version.
2001: A Space Odyssey. Includes snippets of dialogue (Dave, Dave...) and alternative versions of the Ligeti pieces.

Local Hero

The soundtrack did better than the film, although as a film it's one of my favourites.

Tangerine Dream made 2 excellent soundtracks

Most of Hans Zimmer works are brilliant.

Inception has been played to death on my iPod.

Always need a few Soundtracks...even though granted not all the tracks on these albums are great, but there are some gems. Still...a bit of time to kill on itunes/youtube

Inception
Dark Night Rises
Crash
Airheads
Empire Records
Black Hawk Down
V for Vendetta
Bugsy Malone

X-Men First Class
Sunshine
Kick Ass
28 Days Later

The John Murphy stuff is instantly recognisable
