  • James Newton Howard is my favorite composer, closely followed by Hans Zimmer, Steve Jablonsky, James Horner, Thomas Newman, Trevor Rabin, John Powell, Alan Menken, Alan Silvestri, and on and on and on...

    

  • James Newton Howard did some really great scores for some truly crappy movies.

  • hunger games music better be good

  • the track from flatliners sounds a lot like the music from "the land before time"

  • NO PETER PAN!? YOU FOOL!!!!

  • King Kong has THE best soundtrack of all time, but you really didn't choose the best pieces in this video... Please take a look at those below :)

    Central Park - /watch?v=sVC1AWhLVu8&feature=c­hannel_video_title

    Beautiful - /watch?v=W2oEOUnfghQ&feature=r­elmfu

    Beauty Killed the Beast, Pt 5 - /watch?v=06odMZRZMBg&feature=r­elated

  • Treasure planet is such an amazing movie lol

  • "Grand Canyon" (beginning of the movie and during the movie) I love that sound :)

    I don't like the ending version at the end of the movie.

  • THE soundtrack from the village CHANGED MY LIFE !!!!!!

  • @Arkinko1 Me too ^_^

  • FINALLY somone has "signs" for once. Awesome movie, amazing soundtrack!

  • Woah......Grand Canyon sounds nearly identical to the Mighty Ducks Opening Credits theme. David Newman has some explaining to do.....

  • I just noticed something: James Newton Howard and M. Night Shyamalan are together alot. Are they another team?

  • @cesarjimenezanimator - Yes - Howard has done all of Shyamalan's films since The Sixth Sense...Howard's music is always great, whilst the films are always awful, so unfortunately Howard doesn't get the recognition he deserves for his music...

  • @cesarjimenezanimator Yes, every M. Night Shyamalan film (that he directed at least) since The 6th Sense has the score composed by James Newton Howard. My personal favourite is Lady in the Water excellent piece of music ^^.

  • Green Lantern score is going to be Awesome

  • The Village, Sixthe Sense, King Kong et Signs <3

  • Oh, and Peter Pan :P

  • Lady In The Water - Cereal Boxes :')

    King Kong - Central Park :')

    Dinosaur - Across the Desert AND The Egg Travels :')

    Treasure Planet - 12 Years Later :'D

    Signs - Hand Of Fate (Part 1) nearing the end :') but you cannot beat...

    ATLANTIS THE LOST EMPIRE! WHERE IS THAT?! D;

  • Signs is one of my utmost favorites.

  • GENIUS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • anyone have note sheet for these movies or other movie music sheets, for any instrument. i have like 20 000 notes in my computer, so ask if you searching some notes, and we can trade :)

  • Dinosaur made me feel sad....so many memories gone past...

  • sixth sense....horribly amazing movie... 

  • Nice !!

  • village... ;(

  • hans zimmer, james newton howard, james horner... the best!!!!!!!!!!

  • his music makes me want to do something with my life......

  • Check out my renditions of Dinosaur and Hidalgo!

  • His music for M. Night is just AMAZING! Oh, I wish the Signs Soundtrack was on iTunes... >.<

  • Very wrong song choice for King Kong. You should have picked "Beautiful" which is absolutely breathtaking!

    It's hard to grasp for me, how anybody can compose such DIVINE music as this genius! James Newton Howard - the man who changed my life.

  • @Hilallamaa or Central Park

  • @moviedude1500 Totally agreed, bro!! That's an absolutely magnificent track!

  • @Hilallamaa INDEED IT IS!

  • It's hard to grasp for me, how anybody can compose such DIVINE music as this genius! James Newton Howard - the man who changed my life.

  • vertical limit=fantastic soundtrack....one of JNH's finest

  • Flatiners :)

  • is lady in the water a good movie?

  • @HenTodolo yes but alot of people say its not. I loved it, M. Night Shamalan (spelling) is one of those people where u have to have an odd appreciation for his movies and Lady in the Water is one of them

  • @HenTodolo Lady In the Water is in my opinion one of the best movies ever made. I'll never understand why it got such negative reviews. But the characters are enchanting and magical while the story is very strong and meaningful and the music is so moving...you'll get the chills just at the very start of the movie. People say that the film was bad but don't let them stop you from seeing it in your own opinion and don't let them "critic" every "bad" movie outta your mind. I highly recommend! =-)

  • @stardusth2o I'll watch it^^ I rarely listen to people in newspapers :P

  • @stardusth2o XD

  • @HenTodolo Lady In The Water was REALLY GOOD! I think that this is M. Night Shyamalan's most underrated movie ever, along with The Village

  • @HenTodolo Yes it is. Lady in the Water was very good

  • this video kind of looks like a R.I.P video :P

  • The Village!

  • No Atlantis???

  • You should do one of these for Steve Jablonsky. He isn't exactly much of a classic as Hans Zimmer or James Newton Howard, but his tunes are often awe-inspiring.

  • OMFG lady in the water

  • I love the Lady in the water theme

  • Unbreakable! Yes! :D So inspiring....

  • Shame Alive isnt on here thats an amazing score and Promised Land.

  • the sixth sense is my absolute all time favorite movie AND sopundtrack

  • parts of the King Kong score sound like some of the stuff from Psycho...cool.

  • he did alot of costner movies :)

  • The opening credit music for 'Wyatt Earp' is right up there with Elmer's 'Magnificent Seven' and Jerome Moross' 'The Big Country' as one of the best ever for a western.

  • ennio marricone james horner, hans zimmer, james newton howard, howard shore and john williams are the best composers :D

  • The village score is breathtaking

  • James Horner and Hans Zimmer are also two great composers.

  • OMG.. Dinosaur used to be one of my favorite movies.. and i have an obsetion with soundtracks :D

  • @Z00EEE

    Dinosaur is an AMAZING movie and an absolute OUTSTANDING soundtrack.

  • Unbreakable and Water World are the best movies in the world! They are the movies you never want to end!!! :D DUDE! Great video! I'm subscribing you! :D

  • 0:32

  • Beautiful work. Unbreakable is one of the most stirring scores ever.

  • Grand Canyon? lol

  • treasure planet is so underated:(

  • @lilyrou678 Agreed. It's an amazing movie!

  • Batman Begins and The Dark Knight also belong on there.

  • defo

  • Did he do Dark Knight? I thought Zimmer just did that one.

  • Nope he and Zimmer did it togther.

  • Him and Hans Zimmer did that, guess that's why it's not here

  • Dark Knight deffo, that film has an awesome score!

  • i wanna know the name of the track you used from "lady in the water" , i cant find it!

  • ohhh i got that track. love it. its one of my favorite. its the prologue.

  • the man in the moon is my favourite.

  • James Newton Howard, Ennio Morricone & John Williams. Greatest movie composers ever ;D

  • and hans zimmer

  • I am a fan of JNH...and zimmer...and David F. Love their work!

  • I was like.."WHAT? Only one minute remains and I haven't seen Hidalgo!" But....thanks! The Hidalgo score is definitely one of my favorites!

  • James is a wonderful composer, all are great tracks!

  • his king kong ost. is the best. a fateful meeting.beautiful.

  • the postman bso,is one of the best

  • what about Peter Pan? The music for that was amazing and so epic, it's used for movie trailers now. James Newton Howard should be ranked among the best, brilliant!

  • I agree. I personally loved Peter Pan's score.

    James ♥

  • dude i fusking luv his music.

  • This man is brilliant, your imagination explodes listening to his music

  • Thanks for the medley tribute for a completely under appreciated composer over shadowed by tin eared composer hacks hanging on to so-so directors. This man is brilliant.

  • yeah, great video! I liked the scores he did for Disney, and also the ones for Kevin Costner's dreadful movies.

    Thanks for not listing "Batman Begins" nor "The Dark Knight".

  • no i am legend?

  • i would describe his music as having a very simple melody, but just being so perfect for the emotion it is trying to convey. my favorite composer for sure

  • the best of the best

  • Hahaha sorry, didn't mean to post the Children of the Corn 2 score as a video response...check out ALIVE, it's one of the most underrated scores of the 90's.

  • I totally agree with you! I love the End Title track!

  • god, the signs soundtracks always gives me the creeps, i always look around if there's an alien standing around watching me! GOSH and i'm an adult -.-

  • Lady In the Water <3

    -amazing

    Th Fugitive -strong song

  • lady in the water's music is sooo good. it enhanced the movie 100%

  • yaeh, unbreakable!

  • Thank you for remembing Snow Falling on Cedars. One of his best, really, with Tawara especially (used in the trailer for the Matrix Revolutions). Ooh, the Village, Signs and Unbreakable, sweet! Batman Begins should be here, too.

  • Where is Michael Clayton?

  • No Batman Begins or Dark Knight? You serious?

  • Came out before Dark Knight was released, but Batman Begins shoudl be there.

  • certainely definitely agree. lady in the water music of a genious. (mary)

  • the 6th sense and the village are the best by far :)

  • the Village is the best one

  • OMG Treasure Planet, AND Dinosaur!!!

  • The main theme of King Kong is awesome...the song you took isn't as good...But great compilation alltogether

  • Yesss!!! Lady in the Water is the best of his soundtracks! i agree.

  • Lady in the Water is great!

  • I bought the soundtrack to Snow Falling on Cedars after hearing it in this video, and it's beautiful. The track in this video is called 'The Strawberry Field' and it's one of the best pieces on the CD. Great stuff, JNH!

  • i love lady in the water ^^

  • this guy makes the best music in any movie hands down~!

  • And what about Blood Diamond

  • i am legend he does too!

  • i loved his work in peter pan and waterworld, those are the only ones i've seen

  • say what u want about shyamalan's movies.... THOSE are the scores that u NEED to know about.

  • Ok!

  • i've seen the 6th sense!

  • that's a good start... but be sure to peep the music for "the village," "signs," and "lady in the water" too. Great music.

  • i've seen lady in the water and signs and king kong!

  • good stuff, huh? don't forget the village. ;)

  • brilliant!

  • Hey! What about I Am Legend????!!!!!

  • the village la mejor de este señoron

  • The SIGNS!!!

  • whats the song for flatliners?

  • I am curious, what is that movie about? Is it good?

  • Oh wow! Snow on Falling Cedars was PRETTY! And Postman was pretty awesome too. Ah, my favorites are his scores for Atlantis, Dinosaur, Treasure Planet, and Lady in the Water. James Newton Howard is my all-time favorite composer.

  • Waterworld...lol.....ok I'm sorry James Newton Howard is FANTASTIC! (I personally like Peter Pan the best) but Waterworld was a total flop. No offense.

  • Waterworld was a flop,but the musical score was great.

  • Oooh,very good music video(L)

    The Sixth Sense and The Village are the best <3

  • Great collection, but seriously, your segment from King Kong was not near his best work from that film.

  • what song did u use for Unbreakable?

  • KING KONG!!!!

  • I miss the ending theme from "Primal Fear" I loved that score...

  • signs

  • Lady in the Water and The Village are my favorites. Begins and Dark Knight were awesome also but he didn"t do it alone.

  • "Begins and Dark Knight were awesome also but he didn't do it alone".

    You're right there. It has two names on the soundtrack CD box, but all the tracks scream "ZIMMER ZIMMER ZIMMER" in my ears. I can't make out James Newton Howard's contributions at all.

    Not that I have anything against Zimmer. On the contrary, he's the best (besides Harry Gregson-Williams)! But...I'm finding it hard to find PURE soundtracks from Media Ventures composers. They're all mixed up with Zimmer's work.

  • If you know Black Rain soundtrack you"ll see that Zimmer used some of that music in Begins. Anyway I hope that if there"s another Batman movie Newton Howard have more participation in the slow themes.

  • Why no Hypnose ? The OST is so amazing !

  • you guys should youtube: Call of Duty 3 soundtrack. its by joel goldsmith and its FUCKIN AWESOME.And Band of Brothers

  • UNBREAKABLE FTW <3

  • The Village score is <3

  • The Village all the way. The song here is "the vote" in case anybody is interested.

  • OMG, I love James Newton Howard. His songs are so incredibly powerful. They are very emotional/

  • Great job!!! And thank you for Grand Canyon's track. I've been looking for it for a loooong time. Please post some more of it!!!

  • wt is the track name of "Vertical Limit" and " tresure planet" ..? thx

  • I only know the one in Treasure Planet, it's called "The Space Port"

  • thx..!

    and i already know that Vertical Limit's track is "three years later"

  • My favotites are "Lady In the Water", "The Village", "Signs" and "I am Legend"

  • the best is the score to The Dark Knight when he worked with Hans Zimmer.. They managed to bring the jokers insanity into music and the dark mood was captured perfect

  • *squeals* I LOVE that song from Lady in the Water!!

  • I LOVE TREASURE PLANET!!!!!

  • My favorite has to be BLOOD DIAMOND and King kong!

  • I like the Lady in the Water score! it is really amazing!

  • Blood Diamond is really great too!

  • Never tought it was possible at all to mix the words: "epic" and "minimalist". But that is what Howard achieves with "Unbreakable" score. Just listen to the tiny bit in this compilation.

  • Too bad you didn't add MY GIRL "Vada's Theme" that one was his best to me, I never knew why they didn't put the whole score on the cd. It was a beautiful score and movie

  • Oh and same with signs and lady in the water!

  • THE VILLAGE all the way!!!!

    most amazing score ever written!!!!!

  • i love his music but you should have really put in "Flying" from Peter Pan, it's one of his best.

  • Oh yeah! That song is sooo magical!!

  • I know, right? I LOVE that song!

  • great compilation thanks beny

  • My favorite has to be Restoration, I love the way he made restoration so romantic, truly one of the best composers ever!

  • danny elfman, jeremy soule, mychael danna, james howard. my top 4

  • the village is my favourite! brings tears to my eyes!

  • I love Howard's Score for Peter Pan (2003). It's one of my favorite scores.

    It's amazing to me that The new batman franchise brought both Howard and Zimmer to do the score. That's pretty incredible.

  • ...Peter pan?????

  • Nice work. Adding &fmt=18 at the end of your link made this video stereo! This brings real depth to this awesome video .. Brillant editing job by the way! 5*

  • You should include Devils Advocate soundtrack in your next compilation

  • lady in the water is the shit bro im thinking i could beo what he does but like instead of strings and such make them all electric guitars

  • One of the most gifted & versatile composers working in Hollywood. He will go down as one of the giants of cinema. My favorite film composer, Elmer Bernstein, believed Mr. Howard to be ". . . a major talent, the real deal." High praise from The Maestro!

    Peace.

  • king kon and signs are my favorit's

  • GREAT music. Thanks for these :)

  • Cheers. I think Unbreakable is one of the best scores around:)

  • I love it all!

  • is that the sixth sense main titles song? where'd you get it, its not on the soundtrack... is there any chance you can email it to me?

  • Fantastic! Only one thing, why no Peter Pan. He did the original music for Peter Pan (2003) directed by P. J. Hogan. Other than that very good. I was suprised by just how many films he has done with M. Night Shyamalan. :-)

  • I will include Peter Pan when i make "James Newton Howard - more greatest hits",soon! ;)

  • Omg, he did Peter Pan? I totally forgot. That is one of my favorite musical scores of all time ^_^

  • Does anyone have the dark knight sound track it's so good
