Mindblowing OSTs

[Nick Ryder]

So far my favorite is Ramin Djawadi's Iron Man soundtrack. Its orchestral, its rock, its badass. I can't wait to see what they'll do for the sequal, since this one was so awesome.

I can't believe believe no one's mentioned Blood Diamond by James Newton Howard yet. Phenomenal score to go along with a powerful film.

I probably listen to Aliens and Star Trek II more than anything else soundtrack/score-wise.

I'm with ya on that one. I love the Iron Man OST. It'll definitely be interesting to see how IM2's OST turns out, with having a new composer and all.

I personally thought Harry Potter HBP's OST was superb. "In Noctem", especially, was the highlight of the soundtrack.

I'm a big fan of James Newton Howard's Peter Pan OST. Love, love, love it.

"Iron Man" is lambasted in the score community, in fact -- it's the only score on a popular score reviewing site to get ZERO stars. No other score holds that honor.

This is the only non-Bjork produced OST I have on my iPod. I have a problem with OSTs due to the fact that many of them to me just sound like underdeveloped classic music. In which case why not go and listen to the real thing? Iron Man stands out to me as it was something different.

John Williams Jurassic Park theme deserves a mention here as well.
