6. Terrance Blanchard
He's done the score for most of Spike Lee's movies. Then there's Mark Knofler who did the amazing soundtrack to "Local Hero".

20. The score for the new Alice in Wonderland is awesome.
No shock that Elfman wrote it. Burton directed the movie.

22. I wanted to vote for Wi.liams, but Zimmer's music...
I wanted to vote for Williams, but Zimmer's music is so much more forceful when appropriate, and really resonates within me. Even if his score calls for 90% incidental filler, it's still so magnificent.

27. The Rock's theme made me into a Zimmer fan
Most of his subsequent stuff just confirmed it.

25. If you're leaving out Lalo Schifrin, I don't know what to say to you.
And Jerry Goldsmith was dope as well.
