Good list! Although I will admit I've never seen nor heard #9.

My list:

1. Superman. I'm not a huge fan of the character or the movie, but this theme is the all-time greatest.
2. STAR WARS. Not only a great overall theme, but every character has his or her own theme, and they're all great. One of the best film scores ever.
3. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. Electric guitars, whistles, and a singer crying like a coyote. Awesome.
4. JAWS.
5. Lawrence of Arabia. The defining epic.
6. The Last of the Mohicans. (Michael Mann film.) I'm not a huge fan of the film, but it's a fantastic film score.
7. The Magnificent Seven. I challenge anyone to listen to this music and not want to go ride off into the sunset.
8. The Godfather
9. The Lord of the Rings films.
10. Raiders of the Lost Ark
