I love JNH music. I'm looking for some advise on whether or not there's any "essential" score missing from my collection?

Here's what I have:
-The Sixth Sense
-Signs
-Lady in the Water
-The Village
-Unbreakable (my favorite)
-The Happening.
-Atlantis
-King Kong
-Peter Pan
-Treasure Planet
-Dinosaur
-Waterworld
-Wyatt Earp
-Dave
-Snow Falling on Cedars
-The Water Horse
-I am Legend

Any others that are a "must"...?

The Fugitive is what put him on the map.

To name just two great scores, I would add:
- The Prince of Tides, a gorgeous romantic score.
- The Fugitive, a classic as far as suspense/action music goes.

Dinosaur
The Prince of Tides
JNH is interesting. Just when you think all he does is write innocuous background music, he blows your socks off.

I just logged it to recommend just this! It's probably the Howard score I like the most too.

I'm not as familiar with his other scores as I'd like, but here are a few more I think highly of: Hidalgo, Duplicity, and The Emperor's Club.

Duplicity's first track is loads of fun!

Some of you just aren't reading his post, he wants recommendations of scores he doesn't have, not what he's already got.

Vertical Limit, The Last Airbender, The Postman, Hidalgo, Charlie Wilson's War, and The Prince Of Tides. If you love JNH, these are also some of his best works.

As usual, no one mentions one of his greatest: The Lookout.

Explore his dark modern action/thriller side, which can be so much fun:

Dreamcatcher
A Perfect Murder
The Trigger Effect
The Interpreter
Salt

Come on people!!!

Outbreak is great, but save your money for an expanded release (and no, I don't know anything, but I'm sure this one will get expanded at some point). smile

Regardless of what anyone thinks of the film, 'The Tourist' is one of the most grand, old-school, romantic-adventure scores of the past few years. I was also really surprised to discover how rich 'Prince of Tides' is recently.

I'll add my recommendation to these 3 already mentioned:
The Emperor's Club
Hidalgo
The Last Airbender


And add 3 more that should be part of any JNH fan's collection:
Defiance
The Man in the Moon
Dave


Edit: Oops! You already have Dave.

Boy am I spacey. How in red hell could I have forgotten Defiance??? Thanks Hermit...you're right, it is the very definition of essential.

Glengarry Glen Ross. It is available on Amazon for one cent and surely must be better than a lot of what's been listed so far.

Thanks everyone! I've been wanting to pick up The Fugitive for some time now and have been contiplating getting The Last Airbender (even thought I have not seen the movie and really have no intention of doing so - I just like all of JNH and M. Night's efforts together - musically speaking that is).
