You mean like movie soundtracks? Hmmm... tough one. Probably the sountrack for Rockstar would be my fave. :HB:

Trainspotting.
Well, it's not really a theme, but The Big Lebowski has a great soundtrack. A movie with great music (some new, some old) is Rushmore. And Almost Famous also has great music...

Oh thats a tricky one &(
If I ignore the most obvious music movies like:
All Elvis, Beatles, The Who and Prince movies
The Best One: Diva
Then the runner up(s)
The Last Waltz (it was close to a concert so maybe it should be ruled out, great music though)
Matrix (the 1st film)
Taxi Driver
edit: Hair :) forgot that one
Trendsetters:
Shaft
Saturday Night Fever
The Good, the Bad, the Ugly series
Midnight Express
Best Disney Soundtrack:
The Lion King
And the Lifetime achievement goes to
The James Bond Soundtracks

What a coincidence. I'm listening to thw theme from M:I-2 right now (instrumental version). I wouldn't say its that great but I like it. The theme from Rocky III (Survivor-eye of the tiger) is pretty tough. I can't think of any others at the moment. Billy Madison is a sh#t movie but the theme (billy squire-the stroke) is cool.

I think The Great Beyond and Man On the Moon both by REM for the movie - "Man On The Moon"
I would also say "The One That I Want" from Grease, "The Hands That Built America" from the Gangs Of New York, "Circle Of Life" by Elton John for Disney's Lion King.
thats about it from the top of my head, but i ll think up some more.
