I'm not his biggest admirer, but damn does he rock.
My two favorites, still, are Jerry Goldsmith and Thomas Newman. He's in my top 5 though, with John Debney (and someone else, like Philip Glass, Danny Elfman, or Mark Isham).

He single handedly improves the quality of movies with his scores. I seriously hopes he lives to be 100 and is still working up until then.

He actually doesn't think his work is all that great. In fact there was a lot of his compositions that he used to throw out all the time from what I heard.

BTW nice avatar. :D ;)
