Feel free to list your favorite movie soundtrack, but please explain why you feel it is the best.
It is my opinion that the soundtrack for Pulp Fiction is the absolute best out there. The combination of old well know tracks and equally awesome songs that most music listeners have never heard before make this my favorite movie soundtrack.
I encourage you to try to come up with a soundtrack that you feel can compete with this.
Any Quentin Tarantino flick, namely "Kill Bill Vol. 1" and the aforementioned "Pulp Fiction" are great. I was surprised how well put together the "School of Rock" OST was. Especially because of its target audience. I love the score for "I Heart Huckabees". Oh, and the "Garden State" OST is brilliant. Definately the best soundtrack since "KIll Bill"....
I'd swear we had this thread somewhere because I posted 15 different soundtracks, but now I can't even find it. Alzheimer's isn't fun anymore. If you like the soundtrack to Pulp Fiction, I offer the one for American Grafitti, which utilizes many songs from the late '50s and early '60s, all incorporated into the film to make specific comments about specific scenes. My personal favorite musical score is Ennio Morricone's for Days of Heaven.
"Naked Woman, Naked Man Where did you get that nice sun tan?"

Spawn Soundtrack. Forget the film, the soundtrack was a brilliant collection of original musical collaborations; an album in it's own right, not just a bunch of songs from the movie.
I'd have to go with the Laurel Canyon soundtrack. I could live without a few of the songs on the disc, but most of the CD is good. 2 of the songs on the CD are actually performed by the actor who played the lead singer of the band in the movie, his voice is just stunning. I'm very attached to this CD. It's the only soundtrack that I've bought and been able to listen to over and over again all the way through. Just my humble opinion anyway.

2 best soundtracks 1. AC/DC "greatest hits" Who Made Who Soundtrack 2. Hard Core Logo - For you Americans, this is a movie That Quentin Tarrantino saw and bought the US distribution for. It is a Canadian Film about a punk rock band that revives itself in Vacouver and does a tour of western Canada. Look for a Cameo by Joey Ramone. Swwet assed flick
There are so many I love, but the one that came to mind first is Bulworth. Not so much because of great tracks, but because of how it played a part in the story. I also love The Life Aquatic. Bowie in Portugese was pure gold!
Il n'y a pas de hors-texte.

I don’t go out of my way to listen to movie soundtrack CDs. However, I do recall enjoying The Crow soundtrack roughly a decade ago. Excellent music for shallow minded people, like myself.
