Alan Silvestri deserves more recognition as one of the best film composers of all time by the films he has been apart of and what they would of been without his music. His work includes Back to the Future Trilogy, the first two Predator films, three marvel films, Forest Gump and many more iconic movies. All those would be missing something without his music. Back to the Future music is definitely one of best soundtracks off all time by how fun and futuristic it feels in that movie.
Ennio Morricone themes for Sergio Leone are I what I beleive make him iconic. Him and Bill Conti (composer for Rocky) are the only film composers what have made genre defining themes. His work on the Dollar trilogy has made his soundtrack what anyone thinks of when watching a Western. His soundtracks feel like they belong in every film he composes in, and the Western genre would feel as if it was missing something without his iconic pieces.
John Williams, improves the movie by his music giving even more character to characters in the film such as Star Wars where he gives each of the main characters, planets, interactions and factions there own theme. Examples of this is the Darth Vader theme for character, to the dual of heroes for interactions, Binary sunset for Tantoine and the Imperial march for the Empire. All what he does in his films adds another layer what makes you understand the movie even better. The fact he is able to make the themes belong in a sci-fi film is quite incredible as well, as he doesn’t try and make it feel like Blade Runner or Back to the Future where the sound feels out of this time.
