Summertime is a prime time for blockbuster movies, and 2016 is no exception!
But even with all the new movies on the way, there’s nothing quite like the classics. Think about the movies that took you on great adventures, pulled at your heartstrings, and got your adrenaline racing. Which ones top your list?
Now think: can you recall the movie score? For many of the acclaimed films from the last few decades, the music behind it is integral. After all, where would Jaws be without the iconic two-note theme? Would Star Wars be the same without its epic intro?
Although not all movie-goers recognize it, it’s the music that leads you on the journey and coaxes your emotions out.
So, let’s have a little fun. Out of the best movie scores, which one represents you? Is your personality more adventurous… or more romantic?
