Pretty self-explanatory...pick a theme, or list your own. And I've tried to cover all the bases here, so please, no "Hey! Why isn't this on the list!?" posts.

As for me, I love all these pieces of music, so I couldn't even begin to pick a favorite.

It is, and could only be Jaws

May John Williams live to be a thousand years old!

My pick is Superman. Whenever I see those credits and the big S fly through space with the big heroic music I get all warm inside.

Rated R

There's something about the theme to The Godfather, it's just so magnificent, and it always makes me want to watch it. I love it more than any other theme...the only one that comes close to touching it is Jaws or Indiana Jones.

I prefer the Terminator theme. It sounds so brilliant and the music also gives a message of what the Terminator is like. The da-da da-da-da kinda makes you feel the machine-like relentlessness of the Terminator's chasing of whoever he (and soon to be she) is trying to terminate.

I personally dont see whats so great about Star Wars, the movies are absolutly flawed, as pointed out in Clerks. To me, a good movie has to have a moral, and Star Wars doesnt have one.

Batman. The theme for The Dark Knight is just brilliant!!! Every time I watch "Batman" or "Batman Returns" on DVD, I just crank up my surround sound up to the max when I here that music.

most, if not all of Ennio Moricone's score's- the best movie theme composer ever. Untouchables, Good, bad ugly, once upon a time in the west are just a few examples.

Requim for a Dream regaurdless of theme as in theme topic or theme song, it's the best alright. The topic is drugs but not in the supportive way plus it's very dark, and the theme song for it is excellent. Did anyone notice they used the this tune for one of the trailers for Two Towers.

ps. what DO you mean by THEME???
:cool:

Well, I gathered by the other schmoes responses beforehand what kinda theme it was but I was kinda smarting your ass because your title makes a shits worth of sense. Honestly, make it clearer to less abled thinker (not me but someone else on this board).
