Nostalgia Critic - Top 11 Most Awesome Movie Themes

[@j-skullz]

Despite their flaws, the Star Wars prequels had a lot of 'FUCK YEAH' music. The theme that plays in (I think) the Darth Maul fight was pretty damn awesome if I remember

[@Batman1989King]

The theme in the Darth Maul Fight is called Duel of the Fates

[@legodeathstarproductions5513]

Don't forget the battle of all heroes

[@NeoConnor1]

Both duel of the fates and battle of the heroes are two of the best pieces of music John Williams ever composed. Not just in Star Wars, but in his entire career. Period.

[@frozarburst6350]

I almost punched through my laptop after hearing Mortal Kombat.

[@Jashtvorak]

I think that this is the most FUCK YEAH movie theme song ever

[@genesismultiverse4896]

​@@Jashtvorak I actually accidentally punched through a wall

[@kirara2516]

Back The The Future. I will never argue with that top spot choice. That theme spells out everything that is awesome in the world. It's the perfect victory music.

[@JuanG2020]

When you said Back to the Future was number one I literally jumped up and said "Fuck Yeah!" while raising my arms.

[@ISuperGenXI]

The entire time I was watching this list, I was saying to myself: "Where is it... where the fuck is it?" and then number 1 popped up and I literally pumped my fist in the air and shouted "FUCK YEAH!" As it should be. That theme is fucking AMAZING.

[@stanley1698]

+Genex (SGX) Good, you didn't spoil it. You are merciful.

[@tricky1506]

+Stanley Han dies

[@Johnston3384]

Genex SGX Voice Talent Great Scott, that was awesome!

[@operation1968]

I was surprised when he put that on number one. I didn't expect him to do that. But whatever works

[@SupermarketSweep777]

What about the theme from Jurassic Park?

[@HelstonFilms]

No Imperial March? I found your lack of John Williams disturbing?

[@CaliberStone]

Oh, c'mon. He put Superman's theme and Indiana Jones's theme up there.

[@zirrian]

And it wasn't the main theme of the movie.

[@chaoticplumber]

I find your lack of knowledge disturbing

[@annalilymae]

zirrian It didnt have to be the main theme. Were you even paying attention for half the video?

[@tbone9474]

I don't get a fuck yeah feeling from star wars personally

[@ΆρτεμιςΠατερνά]

I also liked the Hunchback of Notre Dame theme.

[@Johnno9989]

The Disney version?

[@SavvyScribblin]

Howard Shore (The Lord of the Rings) is my favorite film composer. There's so much more depth to the movie scores than was shown here. Every culture and place has its own theme and they all blend together so beautifully. The music is perfect and is one of the main reasons I love the films so much.

[@garrisonguzzeau5452]

can't agree more

[@tarrker]

I honestly couldn't believe that Lord of the Rings was the lowest on his list when he pulled out crap like Mortal Combat.

[@garrisonguzzeau5452]

tarrker better than no lotr though

[@gandalfthegray1463]

GiRayne "Lotr is as shallow as a puddle" I know it's an opinion, but I can't help but think you are misinformed if you think as such.

[@gandalfthegray1463]

GiRayne I'm afraid I'll have to respectfully disagree. I have never felt so moved by any other cinematic experience as Lord of the Rings, and I'm at a loss to explain how someone couldn't be. To each his own.

[@DainRiffgin89]

One amazing theme, while not ramping you up, is the Jurassic Park Theme. Especially with when it is formally introduced (with the Brachiosaurs) is perfect. They do play it on the way to the island, but that moment when you first see Dinosaurs is priceless. Chills aplenty!

[@tommycarr8111]

My favourites: 1. Batman 1989/ Batman Returns 2. Back to the Future 3. Mad Max Fury Road 4. James Bond Licence to Kill version 5. Terminator 2

[@omerozel4716]

What about John Barry?

[@jp3813]

Deadly Vanitas There are simply too many great composers, I could list them all day. But I don't find myself listening much to Barry's scores. One James Bond soundtrack is enough for me.

[@kaiserhuangful]

For me it's 1. John Williams (ET, Star Wars) 2. James Horner (Legends of the Fall, Titanic) 3. John Barry (Out of Africa, Dances With Wolves) 4. Ennio Morricone (Cinema Paradiso, The Untouchables) 5. Max Steiner (Gone With the Wind, Casablanca) 6. Hans Zimmer (Gladiator, Inception) 7. Alan Silvestri (Forrest Gump, The Avengers) 8. Maurice Jarre (Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhivago) 9. Howard Shore (LoTR, Twilight) 10. Alexandre Desplat (Harry Potter, The Grand Budapest Hotel)

[@ΆρτεμιςΠατερνά]

Favorite film composer: Joe Hishaishi (every studio ghibli movie ever made)

[@KeybladeMasterAndy]

jp3813 For me, it's 1. John Williams 2. Alan Menken 3. Joe Hisaishi 4. Alan Silvestri 5. James Horner 6. Han Zimmer 7. Howard Shore 8. James Newton Howard 9. Patrick Doyle 10. Alexander Desplat

[@nooneofimportance2110]

Can't complain about the choices, they're all great.

[@yulyoola2528]

Holy crap. Riders of Steel fits perfectly with Braveheart. WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THIS

[@goran77ish]

[@yulyoola2528]

goran77ish Yeah whatever.

[@39Lords]

Before I watch this fully: 11-1: Things by Hans Zimmer, Howard Shore, John Williams, James Horner

[@39Lords]

Oh how wrong I was...

[@TheOdMan]

hehe... teared up a bit at Back to the Future. It's still my favourite movie of all time. It's the only movie I can think of where I would not want to change a thing. The sequels where good as well, but nothing compares to the magic of the first one. I saw it in theatres when I was only 6 years old, with my dad and 4 brothers, I don't remember much from that viewing, only that I loved it. Then dad bought it on VHS and I watched it so many times I lost count. Still watch it at least once a year. And you are right about the music, it's just the most epic theme you can imagine. Love it. Good list btw, I enjoyed all of these, especially the Conan one was surprising to me, I have watched that movie many times, but never really though about the music, good catch.

[@distilledink7135]

That song that plays when Lucy Liu and her posse are walking down the hall in Kill Bill Vol. 1.

[@Valiordruid]

Battle Without Honor or Humanity is the name. I think.

[@MadridHou]

Honestly Orlando Bloom is an underrated actor, he was a major part of the Pirateds trilogy just as Johnny Depp

[@VenomtheOne]

he was the lamest shit on the trilogy, alongside his bitchy lover, keira knightley..

[@MadridHou]

VenomtheOne bullshit he was great and Kiera Knightley its the only good movies she's been in.....

[@JPKloess]

I've never even heard of anybody who disliked his performance. Nostalgia Critic seems relatively alone on this one.

[@hunterzillas9966]

JP Kloess I've got to agree with you and JRUG, he was good in that movie.

[@malcolmhernandez1590]

JRUG she would be super hot but shes skinny as hell

[@christian91titan]

Does anyone else think that ''The good, the bad and the ugly'' should be on this list?

I saw the Pirates of the Caribbean movies when I was a kid that even to this day (I'm now 20) the theme always made me want to get into a duel with the nearest person that's near me.

I think the big thing, too, about the Terminator 2 song is the notes sound metal-y. Like a production line stamping out armour plating for the T-800s.

[@Tarkus_H]

He forgot to point out that the Superman theme and the Indiana Jones theme sound similar because they were both written by the same guy, John Williams, who also wrote the music of Star Wars, Jaws, E.T., Jurassic Park, and Harry Potter. Quite the successful dude.

[@killer-moth2664]

What about the godfather theme? It's so tragic and slow. It's awesome!

[@felixp-marsan3291]

[@immort4730]

No Jurassic Park? The MOFO T-Rex will eat you in your sleep. Also, since this video, Man of steel, Kingsman, interstellar.

[@Metrion77]

+Jason Zhao Listen to the Jurassic Park theme again. It's a slow start to build a sense of wonder. It's a well known theme, but is it the kind of thing that makes you "stand up with your teeth clenched and shout fuck yeah"?

[@immort4730]

Metrion77 Listen to the opening of the gates scene in the first movie

[@Metrion77]

Jason Zhao Just did. (kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHnIZ4qamMpmrNk). Max Volume too. Slow, subdued french horns and violins. Granted, it's a bit more "up" than the full song's intro, but compare it to the songs on the list. They start out with bangs that get you out of your seat. MORTAL KOMBAT! or the hammering beat of the terminator. These songs start loud and fast, they're all about throwing you into the action. Slow epic music like Jurassic Park or Inception lets you take in the atmosphere. Which makes sense, since the imagination that went into the worlds in JP or Inception is worth being awed over.

[@immort4730]

Metrion77 Do you not feel a tingle of satisfication or awe? Granted this may look a bit dull compared to World, but take a look at the big reveal scene in World and you can just feel the goosebumps on your skin. Songs dont have to have a fast tempo to make you excited, take man of steel the first variation and you can still feel power radiating from the peice. Kingsman's use of Pomp and Circumstance wasnt that fast yet it still felt very fitting and sounded glourious.

[@Metrion77]

Jason Zhao Awe and satisfaction? absolutely. But people fall into your seat with your jaw on the floor is not "stand up with your teeth clenched and shout fuck yeah". Mortal Kombat is not an impressive or epic song, just 80s synth and people's names.

[@OstianOwl]

I would have also included the Godzilla theme in this. That theme pretty much comes in two parts: the first part sounds like what you would hear accompanying a massive monster stomping through a city and the other part sounds like the anthem of a fearsome warrior. I'd say that makes it a pretty fitting theme for the King of the Monsters and the perfect theme to get you excited to see Godzilla beat the hell out of whatever kaiju is dumb enough to stand before him.

[@jaydenfredrickson8509]

This video Is from 2012

[@OstianOwl]

The Godzilla theme I was referring to was the version from the Heisei era movies (1980-1998) which was a rearrangement of the original 1954 theme; not the theme of the 2014 Legendary Pictures film.

[@lmcd301]

Cam TriforceMan The Godzilla theme can make anything epic.

[@TheGrimoiresVoice]

I love that theme!

[@Fragacide]

Is there a Notalgia Critic review on BTTF trilogy? If not, there should be! I'd love to see that!

[@MrDrawingboard1]

BACK TO THE FUTURE!!!!! Can't wait to hear the score in the upcoming musical adaptation! :D :D :D

[@MrDrawingboard1]

***** yep, I believe it's planned to be released this year to celebrate the 30th anniversary. Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale wrote the book to the musical and the guy whose writing the music and lyrics are Alan Silvertri and Glen Ballard, the guys who wrote the Back to the Future theme song. :D :D

[@MariktheGunslinger]

I think we can also add the Avengers theme to this. Hulk punches the leviathan, Iron Man blows it the fuck up, all the Chitauri scream in rage, and over all of that, you hear *duuuuun, dun-dun-du-DAAAAAAAAAAA, DUN, DUN, DUN!*

[@divyaanshsinha7310]

+MariktheGunslinger It's generic crap. I'm glad it wasn't on the list. Alan has made much better scores...

[@MariktheGunslinger]

FranticAnimations I like it. I feel it encompasses heroism and bravery in the face of danger.

[@Optimusprime240]

You know... Star Wars had a couple F*** YEA moments in its music. Like, right after Akbar says "Its a Trap!" And the music blasts out with violence as the Imperial fleet is revealed and the battle begins. I DARE you to watch that scene without feeling the epicenes of it! But I also agree that Lord of the Rings had more goose bump-inducing F*** YEA moments.

[@anthonyfins7519]

To be honest I think Star Wars has more.

[@Kohay114]

[@letsbedragonflies]

My favorite movie themes are for the most part from Ghibli movies. My favorites among those are the Castle in the Sky theme and the Princess Mononoke theme. They just give me chills! Castle in the Sky is so calming, but then fades over to something absolutely epic! You can't help but feel like it's dragging you into a world of beauty and adventure. Princess Mononoke makes you feel calm, wonder and beauty, and I can't help but be quiet whenever I listen to it because I don't want to ruin anything about it.

[@wcw2793]

I'm actually really surprised the theme from Predator didn't make it on the list. Every time I hear that kickass theme when seeing that scene of Dutch stepping off the chopper and lighting a cigar like a total badass makes me go, "oh yeah, Arnold's here and he's ready to kick some ass!" There's also other great themes in it (and Predator 2) like Billy's last stand and when Dutch is prepping for the final fight against the Predator. Also, I love both Elfman and Zimmer's work on Batman. I always think of the 89 film and Animated Series when I hear Elfman's theme, but I give Zimmer credit for delivering a great score because he made it his own and didn't try to copy Elfman's work (he would also do the same with Man of Steel).

[@wingedangel81]

Couldn't agree more with number 1! Hands down a timeless theme that you get a whole adventure from just listening to it!

I bet if you shot this correctly, you could make a video of a man eating a sandwich seem epic if you played it to the Back to the Future theme.

[@Adamguy2003]

Here are my picks that didn't make the Critic's list: 1. 'Flight to Neverland', from the movie 'Hook.' Basically, the music played during the scene when Peter re- learns how to fly, and joyously flies over Neverland while the Lost Boys dance and celebrate. I'll never forget that gorgeous composition which practically screams both 'Flight' and 'Adventure.' 2. The theme from the movie 'The Rocketeer.' Often- overlooked film, but this beautiful music, much like 'Flight to Neverland,' wonderfully captures the sensation of flying, and is just great hero- music in general. 3. The theme from the Sam Raimi 'Spider- Man' films. This music fits Spider- Man so perfectly, from the opening that resembles the sound of rapidly- running legs, to the incredible main part of it, which perfectly makes you envision swinging through the city skies alongside him, and also captures the sadness and emotional depth that he carries. Honorable mention goes to the Doc Ock Suite from 'Spider Man 2,' as that music has such an awesome "Supervillain" feel to it. 4. The running music from 'Forrest Gump.' It has such a great "Beat the Odds" feel to it, especially when it's first used as young Forrest runs from the bullies and his leg- braces fall apart.

Yes! Number 1 deserves its spot!

[@bookwormdalek1007]

If this list were to be updated it, the Pacific Rim theme would HAVE to be on it.

WHERE THE FUCK IS STAR WARS WHERE THE FUCK IS SHINLERS LIST WHERE THE FUCK IS JURASSIC PARK WHERE THE FUCK IS JAWS

[@guysimchony309]

I don't think Jurassic park OR schindlers list qualify as 'fuck yeah' themes. ESPECIALLY not schindlers list.

[@michaelford5563]

Guy Simchony but they're still awesome

[@guysimchony309]

I agree, they're both great, emotional tracks. But neither ever made go 'FUCK-YEAH!!'

[@michaelford5563]

Guy Simchony I suppose you're right

[@cunningwolf4516]

Michael Fordude thank you

[@BatmanFan76]

5:30 Anyone else feels like banging their head to the beat? 😆🤘🏻

[@Joseph-sg3jz]

13:13 amazing

[@wuvpuppy2980]

I think the Jaws theme should've been included on this list...oh well I agree with number one.

[@casesoutherland4175]

I love the score from the second barrel chase scene! It gets my hair standing up!!

[@thegameroftime2461]

How could you forget Spiderman 2002 - 2007

[@tonyb0904]

I don't remember M : I 2, very well, but I like the part after Ethan gets the current mission, throws the message glasses at the screen in slow motion and they explode was pretty cool. Every pick with Lord of the Rings sounded exactly the same despite how tense the scenes were. While the Terminator theme was pretty good, moreso with T 2, as the robot skeleton approached the screen, and the theme intesified, and ended with those glowing red eyes, epic sequence intro to an epic movie, sequel or not!

[@LeeLee-pk4ss]

I really don't like any of the Rocky movies BUT I do love the theme to it. That is a testament to how good the music is. Surprised that Jaws didn't make the list but maybe it wasn't F@&k YA enough, instead it's creepy and makes you never want to swim in the ocean ever. And I am miffed that not even one theme from Star Wars made the list, I kept waiting for Duel of The Fates from episode 1 to be mentioned.

[@BigPuddin]

***** YEAH!! FUCK YOU GUYS WITH DIFFERENT TASTES!!

[@Dagarar]

No Sam Raimi's Spiderman?

[@kylemoore2446]

When I think Batman, I either think of the Arkham City theme, or the Tim Burton theme, fucking awesome!

[@WeRtheScarletMystery]

I knew the number 1 wouldn't let me down! No matter what, whenever there's a top 11 list from this guy, no matter how much I disagree with whatever else there is, if I've even heard of the number 1, it's exactly the one I would've picked.

[@sekaijin7299]

Noticing a serious lack of Shiver My Timbers from Muppet Treasure Island.

[@11kreider]

actually that's a song not a theme but he does mention that song in his top 11 villians songs.

[@davidralphsky]

WHAT? Lord of the Rings is LAST on the list?

[@BohrokKiller]

I hoped the Jurassic Park theme was in the list :( Other then that it was a good list

[@nordicfatcheese]

I know this track isn't the theme, nor is it from a movie, but it is the song that gets me the most pumped: the track "Rage of the Shadow Warriors" from Star Wars: Republic Commando. I just want to get up, shoot something, stab something, and yell 'DHA WERDA VERDA A'DEN" when I hear it.

[@tombantle]

There were movie themes before 1970, some of them were even awesome, not just loud.

[@KiviBraendle]

Sorry but Lord Of The Rings is much higher imo xD It's so much badassery.

[@Blade-hf9po]

I got bored after T2. was just about to declare list as fail when.. BOOM. Back to the future shows up at #1.

[@rammajack]

Man this got me pumped to watch the mission impossible movies again.
