    [pulls on pedantic pants]

    Soundtracks are usually songs by artists and bands that feature in the movie or reflect the movie's mood.

    Scores are the instrumental pieces that play during the movie, usually of a classic music bent

    [pulls off pedantic pant and awaits rotten fruit in her direction]

    For soundtracks I love: Blues Brothers, Blues Brothers 2000 (even if the film in no match for the music), Trainspotting, Threesome, Stand By Me.

    For scores, Star Wars of course and The Mission, plus mostly anything else Ennio Morricone.

    A few not mentioned yet:

    Top gun
    Shall we dance
    Dirty dancing (original)
    Pirates of the Caribbean
    Phantom of the opera
    Cats
    Charlie and the chocolate factory (new and old)
    ...

    As a side note, have you ever seen a movie without a sound track yet and then seen the same movie later after the sound track was added? Huge difference!

    Somehow I ended up in a test audience for White Squall (the preview was free with our tickets to Jumanji that night, as long as you promised to answer a survey afterwards). Anyway, the post-production stuff like sound track wasn't complete so my father and I keep feeling like something was missing but we couldn't figure out what. Took a while to figure out we were missing the music (it did have sound effects for the water and wind, etc). We saw the entire movie with no musical track about a year before the full film released, then saw it again. The music made a huge difference (it's a great movie either way though, but the music really makes some things pop more than without music does).
