Some well-known, good movie themes and good movies, too:


Schindler's List Soundtrack - YouTube



John Dunbar - Dances With Wolves Theme - YouTube



Video Power Hour - Movie Theme Songs - The Big Chill - YouTube



It Had To Be You [HD] - Harry Connick, Jr. ◆ When Harry Met Sally ◆ - YouTube

 

[Faithful Skeptic]

I absolutely love the them from the Last of the Mohicans. It's the only theme that has ever struck me enough to remember it and actually seek it out at times, even though there are a bunch that I know I enjoy. Actually, the ending song of Jurassic Park was pretty cool. I also remember liking a lot of the Lord of the Rings scores. Anyway, I had forgotten about it until this thread. Thanks for reminding me.

James Bond Intro - YouTube

makes you wonder why the guy on the receiving end is looking through the barrel of his gun (and how that is even possible)...

I love this song. I bought it on cassette when it came out and still have it

Sorry!

had to remove the link to the video, but I love the Maurice Jarre music from the barn raising scene from Witness.

Pan's Labyrinth Lullaby

He's not looking through the barrel. The barrel is aimed at Bond and we're seeing him from the perspective of the assassin's barrel. Bond nails the assassin before he can nail Bond.

If I could only keep one DVD for the rest of my life, it would be Big Trouble in Little China. What a little-known gem...

ok so he's got a camera down the barrel then...no wonder he couldn't get a shot off!

edit: but wait, if he isn't looking through the barrel, then why does the screen go red, eh?

Haven't really seen the movie, but know the song.

Another good song from a movie that was ok (but we're going by good theme songs, sooooo...lol):

St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion) - YouTube

Yes, I hear you. Lots of great movies but the themes songs may not have as much zing. I dis like St. Elmo's Fire. It was an okay movie. There were a few good movies like that during that time. ...reminds me of another I'll post and you can tell me what you think.

Oh, I thought of James Bond movies but truthfully I like the theme song for Bourne Identity better. ...and I like the movies a whole lot better too.

I saw a portion of St. Elmo's Fire on tv years ago. It was all right. I like the theme song, though.

As a lifelong Bond fan who read all the original Fleming books voraciously as a teenager and who started watching the films from the time I was a kid, who had original 007 posters in his bedroom as a young man, I'm going to pretend I didn't hear any of this!
