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.

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.

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

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.

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.

This makes me want to open a big fat can of whoopass

at 7:28 pm today, all of Back to The Future will officially take place in the past.

you'll forget Orlando Bloom is in it. he was Legolas in LOTR or did everyone forget that

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Hey, Nostalgia Critic. Please do another Top 11 Awesome Movie Themes list. This one was rife with a bunch of fav tracks I'd forgotten about, but are now secure on my iTunes playlist. Thanks, dude.

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

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.

I agree. Elfman's Batman theme is the TRUE theme to Batman,

I think it's worth mentioning that the guy who did the music for Conan, Basil Poledouris, did the Robocop theme (original) and the Hunt for the Red October theme. Both of those themes and movies were awesome!

Kill Bill, Kingsman, and Hamonica's theme from Once Upon A Time in the West are some of my personal favorites.

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).

The kids who were born when Mortal Kombat came out are now old enough to have kids of their own. This video was posted 7 years ago. Even now, if you played the Mortal Kombat theme song at any club, bar, or dance hall, people would still cheer and start dancing their asses off!

I know it isn't a movie theme but, Batman: Arkham City's theme is fucking fantastic, could you imagine that theme played in the beginning of the Batman movie that we've always wanted....I just wouldn't know what to do with myself if that became a reality.

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.

How could you forget Spiderman 2002 - 2007

Basil Poledouris, composer of the Conan soundtrack, also composed the scores for Red Dawn, Hunt for Red October, Robocop and Starship Troopers. He’s one of the most underrated (if not THE most underrated) film composers of the late 20th century.

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!

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

Joseph Glatz interesting questions in the old star trek movies? like which one? the old star trek movies were just shit. except TWok and Undiscovered Country. First movie: Voyager 6 comes back to destroy mankind. Second movie: great vilain with heroic sacrifice for the better of the ship Third movie: smash everything TWoK has build up Fourth movie: like first movie rework. but whales have to rescue mankind fifth movie: the official standard scaling of bad movies sixth movie: actual exciting seventh movie: actual boring eight .. : borg with time travel ... again 9: 1.5 the final frontier 10: just no Then the reboot after some terrible movies. 11: a good movie that had action and a story 12: cool movie and a great Khan ( personal i like Cumberbatch very much)

Number 2, 4, 6 ,and 8 were good, and number 1, 3, and 10 have salvageable characteristics, suffer more from issues with their execution rather than their concept. (1 needed different cinematography more than anything, 3 needed a better villain but is essentially a decent though not outstanding film, and 10 needed better pacing and less action). Don't tell me you didn't enjoy the Borg in First Contact. First Contact was a very enjoyable film to watch,( very suspenseful, great villain, good pacing, impressive special effects) even if it didn't offer much in the way of new plot lines. So far with the new films, they've re-worked the them to be more like standard Hollywood action fare. The 2009 film had a pretty standard plot (bad guy vows revenge and wants to blow up Earth, and Captain Kirk and the Enterprise have to stop him.) The moral is essentially "follow your gut, be yourself, and teamwork" nothing terribly original there. I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy the 2009 film, and I'd say it's about as good as First Contact. Into Darkness however doesn't understand what made the TWoK great to begin with. Having a good bad guy was one thing (the JJ Abrams films are very well-casted if you ask me), but the space battle is just the standard "David and Goliath" affair that we've seen dozens of times already. TWoK had two evenly-matched ships facing off against each other, leaving it down to wits and experience to determine the winner. The USS Vengeance doesn't allow for this. Also, new Spock gets pissed off and emotional too frequently for my tastes. Sure, I know he's half human, but it's not a Vulcan's DNA that makes them logical, it's discipline and frequent meditation, which Spock would be doing, so he should better manage his emotional outbursts. And don't introduce immortality and technology that makes starships obsolete into a series that's about a crew of a starship, it will cause problems. Sorry if I rambled, hope that makes sense.

The Godzilla Theme should be on this list. When you hear it, you know that Godzilla is gonna kick some kaiju ass.

One of my favourite movie moments is in Superman 2 when he kneels before Zod and then stands up and then that theme plays.So badass

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

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

Jurassic Park totally should've been on this list. It's so epic sounding.

Sara Ash The Rock theme sounds epic as well. You know what movie i'm talking about, it's the one with Nicolas Cage, Sean Connery and Ed Harris. Not the wrestler The Rock. LOL

Sara Ash That movie has so many epic scenes that would literally bring chills down your spine with it's mighty soundtrack. Search here on youtube The rock shower scene( And no it's not what you think LOL) and the rock green smoke scene and you will know what i am talking about.

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.

You make me miss my choir teacher from the first two years of my high school career pretty hard, Doug. He once discussed the importance of music in movies.

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

Here's a few underrated themes Spiderman(2002) Clash of the Titans(1981) Rudy(1993) Jurassic Park(1993) Batman Forever/Batman & Robin Django Theme

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

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

My favorite theme ever is The Astroid Field from Empire Strikes Back, it starts off calm but smacks you in the face with Imperial March then goes away, leaving you confused. It starts slowing down to a steady pace but picks up slightly, only slowing down once more, giving you a warning about the awesomeness lying ahead, then BAM!! One of the greatest themes ever! John Williams did a great job of putting action, suspense, and danger in one song, and don't get me started on the Astroid Field scene.

Good Number One spot there Nostalgia Critic!

In all honesty I actually agree for the Braveheart theme idea, IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL AND EPIC!!! :D
