Beowulf. Just sayin',
- The introduction of the title character is accompanied by an incredibly awesome piece of music by Alan Silvestri. Only the best for Ray Winstone! What We Need Is A Hero!
- Idina Menzel's "A Hero Comes Home" in the credits.
The iconic themes from Predator, Forrest Gump, Back to The Future and The Abyss all suit the mood of each film very very well. The "Feather Theme" from Forrest Gump is whimsical and emotional, the Predator theme ominous then moves into stirring, the Back to the Future theme a riff on the epic super hero theme given a humourous edge, and "Bud On the Ledge" from The Abyss ethereal and soaring.
Predator:
- Main Title.
- End Title.
Forrest Gump:
- I'm Forrest... Forrest Gump.
- Suite from Forrest Gump.
Back to The Future:
- Suite.
The Abyss
- Main Title.
- Finale.
Mousehunt
- Main Title.
- End Credits.
"My First Bus Ride" from The Mummy Returns. The most awesome track in a score filled with awesome.
He did a wonderful score to Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, combining smooth film-noir jazz with wacky cartoon themes. The end credits shows it off in all in it's glory.
Why was "End Credits" from G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra dropped from the film to make room for the Black Eyed Peas's "Boom Boom Pow" (the track times perfectly with the Peas)? Fergie may have the humps but Silvestri has the chops.
As terrible as Van Helsing may have been, Alan Silvestri's score was awesome. Witness:
- Transylvania 1887.
- Transylvanian Horses
- Final Battle.
- Reunited.
Captain America the First Avenger:
- Main Titles.
- Captain America "We Did It"
- Triumphant Return.
- Motorcycle Mayhem.
- Captain America.
- Captain America March.
From The a Team. "No. They're trying to fly a tank."
The Avengers:
- Specifically the "Main Theme". More specifically the repeating motif that starts at 1:06.
- Helicarrier.
- Tunnel Chase.
- One Way Trip
- A Promise.
- Heck, just buy the album already!
