Fabulin 3,505 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I've made a tier maker tool with over 40 film composers, because I needed it in a discussion elsewhere. Some are sadly missing and I can't edit now, but there are enough to play with if you'd like. https://tiermaker.com/create/composers-ranked-by-their-film-scores-482983 Available (in an alphabetical order): My tier list would be: Spoiler Feel free to disagree, and have fun.

TheUlyssesian 2,467 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 The tool doesn't have the names, so difficult to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeltington 1,420 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 John Williams > everyone else > Giacchino. You at least got this right on the most fundamental level. Jurassic Shark and Tydirium 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oomoog the Ecstatic 314 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Was browsing through the general forum and found this thread! Here is my current ranking of favorite soundtrack composers, those whose work I'm very familiar with. I will include more composers soon. Notes: I've never really played the games of Uematsu. His music is simply state-of-the-art Update 10/17/20: I would make one slight change for now Bayesian and Jurassic Shark 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oomoog the Ecstatic 314 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I don't see the problem really. These lists also may change with time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayesian 1,348 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Here's mine, involving only those composers whose faces I recognized. Jurassic Shark and Fabulin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,384 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Yes, there were several I didn't recognize. Maybe I had recognized a few more if the pics had been bigger, but you need names -- and more composers from the modern era! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce marshall 1,306 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Top tier: JW...JG...BH...EM. AGREED! I would add JOHN BARRY. Second tier: Elfman, Horner, Zimmer, Silvestri, Isham, Poledouris, Yared, North . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, sadly I can't edit it to add more composers. Bayesian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
