The Visitor. The last unreleased Emmerich / Devlin project he did.

Independence Day is my all-time favorite score though.

Love Stargate, Last of the Dogmen, Tomorrow Never Dies, parts of Godzilla, Young Americans, much of Shaft (ordered it along with TND), but haven't heard all of his music yet.

I don't know Changing Lanes, Enough, Amazing Grace, his television work in recent years, etc.

'Miami International' (especially the opening) from Casino Royale, and 'Night at the Opera' from Quantum of Solace are great moments from those two scores.

The pilot episode of The Visitor!

It's extraordinary and not just in terms of music for network TV. In my opinion it's right at the top with ID4 for great Arnold music.

STARGATE.
When I heard it in 1994 I thought we have a new John Williams..but I was wrong...
Never got into his Bond scores or others really..but he is OK..

Gotta be STARGATE -- my intro to both Arnold and Emmerich, who both became big favourites of mine. Shame he's not been hired more for feature films in the last decade.

Love, love, love Stargate. When I saw he was going to do ID4 I was really excited. When I initially heard the score I was very disappointed. I don't know why- its his grand opus. Now ID4 edges out Stargate but not by much.

LAST OF THE DOGMEN - Would love an expansion of this!
INDEPENDENCE DAY - Pure fun action score (and a great main theme)
CASINO ROYALE - "Vesper" is one of my all-time favorite cues.
TOMORROW NEVER DIES - can't wait to listen to this!

His two 90s Bond scores are ok. I also like the song Play Dead by Bjørk from Young Americans.

Through the years of collecting his scores, I still find that it's his Bond scores that I listen to most frequently. Tracks from his S/F scores are included on my various custom compilations, but for full album listens it's the Bond ones I return to.

Highly underrated

Tomorrow Never Dies
Casino Royale
Independence Day
Shaft
The World Is Not Enough
Stargate

Those are the ones I play quite frequently. The score for Shaft sounds so cool. Independence Day is epic. His Bond scores are by far my favorite of the series (sorry Barry fans). They're never boring or dull, and they set the mood where you know you're watching Bond. Listening to Casino Royale you can listen to Craig become Bond as the score goes along. Can't wait to listen to TND. It's the one thing I asked my wife to get me for Christmas.

I have to add that his Godzilla was the ONLY thing good about that "film." The line, "He's from France." It makes me cringe every time.
