It's all come down to this... My favorite film score track of all time. The first time I saw Up I was completely blown away by the opening 10 minutes, much like the rest of the world. I've never seen life so successfully condensed into ten minutes, ever. Not ever! The ten minutes are so touching that they are more worth watching than the full 2 hours of most movies.

Honestly, the first time I saw the movie I didn't even think about the music. I consider this to be good film making , as I was so engrossed in the movie I didn't have time to consider the music, design, etc. It was only upon my second viewing that i realized how mind blowing the music truly was. This is probably one of the most unique scores I've ever heard. It seamlessly integrates elements of the 1950/60's Jazz era with a more orchestral sound. Absolutely beautiful and totally unexpected. I was overjoyed when this score received an award at the Oscars, not only because the score itself was brilliant but also because Micheal Giacchino totally deserved it; he's quickly becoming the best composer around.
So that about wraps up this list. Hope at least some of you have enjoyed it! If you haven't seen them already, feel free to go back and look over my previous entries.
