I love every movie score created by Hans Zimmer (his score for the new movie 'The Creator' is absolutely brilliant !)
John William ranks alongside him for me, and Enio Moriccone rounds up my 3 favourites

John William's... love the way he uniquely has French Horns playing melody, while other composers mostly have strings play melody

John Williams. I am not sure if I heard anything Hans Zimmer has done. Doesn't mean that I haven't. I just don't know if I have.

John Williams, no doubt. To have the iconic scores he's produced is insane.

Ennio Morricone. I'm sure there are many other good ones but usually the music is just in the background and I don't even notice it.

  Don't feel dumb, many do not follow just who produces many of the great musical scores from film. I particularly like the Score from Gladiator, and I know the woman vocalist but not who wrote the score.
