What's your fave John Williams scores...or it doesn't even need to be scores...like have you heard his classical guitar stuff? I love John Williams's music, mainly Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter, Schindler's List, Seven Years in Tibet, Jurassic Park...

The Star Wars music is, of course, one of the best cinema scores of all time! I like the Harry Potter music too, though at this point I'm slightly more partial to Patrick Doyle (is that his name?).

Yup, Patrick Doyle.

I know John Williams from Harry Potter, but my favorite score of John Williams is from Schindler's List ----- if you guys have ever seen that, the music is moving!

Yes, Padme/Anakin Theme is beautiful. Yeah, I forgot the Olympic theme! That's the best thing about the olympics, you get to hear John Williams's music every day!

I wouldn't say John Williams is my favorite score composer, but he's definitely on my 'top 30 favorite composers list'.

My favorite scores of his would be Hook, Home Alone (and Home Alone 2), The Patriot and Harry Potter :)

I love John Williams scores' or at least the movies I've seen with his music.

Star Wars is the obvious fave, the theme from Superman is a classic that everyone knows same with Jaws.

Others I like are:
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
The Indiana Jones Trilogy
