What are some of your favorite movie soundtracks (not talking film scores or anything)?
I just recently watched Adventureland thought it had a great soundtrack and kinda of sparked my interest to hear some other opinions of great movie soundtracks.
A few of mine are :
Reservoir Dogs
Singles

    I was browsing the CD section at a used bookstore last week and came across The Crow soundtrack in the bargain bin for 79 cents. I felt like buying it out of principle.

    And to answer the topic.
    The Forrest Gump Soundtrack should be required textbook listening before anyone graduates High School.

    I'm pretty fond of the two Tron Scores too (Tron/Tron Legacy)
    "You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.

    This. Singles is my all time favorite. I was and am a big fan of the Born on the Fourth of July soundtrack. More recently, the soundtracks to two of Zach Braff's movies, The Last Kiss and Garden State are both really good. Oh and I can't forget Into the Wild. Those songs have gotten more plays on my iPod than anything else.
