Hans Zimmer always delivers solid work.
His soundtrack of The Dark Knight and The Lion King were also great.

Interstellar!
Years ago I imported the Oldboy and A Bittersweet Life soundtracks, probably the best ones I know of still. Really, really great tracks.
Bladerunner is pretty damn good, as well as the Under the Skin soundtrack.. real creepy.
Most by Bruno Nicolai, Ennio Morricone and Stelvio Cipriani.

Too bad it sounded like shit during the actual film due to horrible sound mixing. Seriously, they bastardized it; what were they thinking?

I second this. Main theme is one of my all time favorites.
Nope, the movie sounds awesome with a good sound system. Sounds literally the exact same as any other movie really, maybe with slightly louder music
Disagree.

I'm a big fan of Clint Mansell. My favorite of his are either Noah or Stoker.
Intersteller is incredible.
Anything by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.
Johnny Greenwood did great work on There Will Be Blood and The Master.
I'm currently listening to the It Follows soundtrack. I haven't seen the movie yet but I'm really digging the soundtrack.
Honestly I can't really choose a favorite

I can't think of a more forceful soundtrack than The Dark Knight's "Aggressive Expansion". Goes right through your spine.

Thomas Newman is also great. Enjoyed his work on The Road to Perdition and Finding Nemo.

Hans Zimmer: The everything.
Harry Gregson-Williams: We all love him from his work on Metal Gear Solid, but Kingdom of Heaven, and Man on Fire are his best. Seriously. Watch the ending sequence to Man on Fire. That music...
Joe Hisashi with Princess Mononoke, Geinō Yamashirogumi with Akira (Kaneda is an amazing powerful song; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Af5r8ONtacw ) and Kenji Kawai for Ghost in the Shell, probably tops it for anime soundtracks for me. They sound like nothing else, and if I had to give some anime movie soundtracks to people who had no seen the film, it would be these because the music is so interesting musically that they stand on their own.
A lot of movies have great scores, but fit the film the best, not as a stand alone.
Lord of the Rings has some great tracks. Bridge over Kazadum is one for the ages. It's why it's used in anything. Masterfully used in that Superman trailer.

I'll probably get a lot of flak for this but I really enjoyed the soundtracks for all four Transformers movies. They are really cool and epic in my opinion.
Seriously, this is Giacchino's magnum opus.
he murdered that shit
absolutely amazing soundtrack

Interstellar's soundtrack really makes me feel like I am going to save the world (wish the movie was as good as soundtrack). If you are into techno music, Tron: Legacy is pretty rad.
If you have an obsession of Phil Collins, Tarzan's soundtrack can do no wrong.

just watched that last night. Was the first time I rewatched since seeing the theaters. The soundtrack is really one of the main highlights of that film
