This is actually really tough. I ended up picking "Gladiator" because to me it's the score that encompasses everything Zimmer is capable of - wonderful emotions, grand epicness, sort of atmospheric ambiance. It's got it all. But "The Thin Red Line" and "Interstellar" are definite standouts for me too.

The Thin Red Line is the greatest film score of all time. Zimmer knows it, too, with the amount of times he's self-cannibalized it.

The Lion King is the correct choice.

Amazing how even this is.
Thin Red Line is clearly his magnum opus and among the best scores of all-time. Interstellar and Gladiator would round out the top three I think.

Hard to choose but I voted for Inception. Roll Tide (Crimson Tide) is the best thing he has ever done tho.

i mean, a lot of these are quality scores but Lion King is the only one that's iconic.

It's just an awesome score. I still wish he was doing that sort of masculine synthy stuff, as opposed to the more ambient drone sound that dominates his action work his day. |

Boy, that's tough. Inception has the best score of this decade and Interstellar is not to far back.
But the scores of Gladiator and The Thin Red Line even top them, both are in my top ten of all time. So those two.

I just learned on his interview with 60 Minutes that his score for the Cannes-winning Barbara Hershey film, A World Apart, is what caught the attention of the producers of Rain Man... the rest, as they say, is history.  |
