Can you imagine watching a movie without any music? It would be pretty dull. A film's score is what gives a movie life and excitement. With the release of the new Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer, Lori, Jeff and Kylie got to talking about the movie music that just makes you feel something inside. Here are each of our favorites. 

LORI - THE THEME TO ROCKY - "Gonna Fly Now"

 

Lori loves 'Rocky.' Just Rocky. No, II, III, IV, V or Balboa. The original or nothing for her. What remains through all of them though is the classic inspirational theme composed by Bill Conti "Gonna Fly Now." It just makes you want to run up those steps in Philadelphia and jump up and down with your hands in the air.

 

JEFF - THE THEME TO STAR WARS AND SUPERMAN: THE MOVIE

I had to pick two. Of course Star Wars is my favorite, but nothing compares to the Superman Theme. Both were composed by the greatest film score composer of all time, John Williams who has an astounding 49 Academy Award nominations for his work. He's won 6.

Both Star Wars and Superman are classics that everyone instantly recognizes and you can't help but want to puff out your chest and lift a car when you hear the familar "Dun, dun dahhhh!" of the Superman Theme.

 

KYLIE - HARRY POTTER - 'Hedwig's Theme'

Kylie may not be a Star Wars geek, but she does love Harry Potter and if there was a new movie in the series coming out in December, she would be geeking out over it like I am with the new Star Wars.

This is another John Williams composition that, like all his scores, fits the movie like a glove. 'Hedwig's Theme' builds from the quiet bells that in the opening and slowly becoming more grand as more instruments join the orchestra. It's another Williams classic.
