    Right, here's something that should be mildly diverting. Basically, post the titles of up to three scores you think are as fine a selection of scores as you've ever encountered, and then someone else can post another selection of three, then someone else, and so on, until we have 1000 cracking scores up and listed.

    1. Limit yourself to three scores per post.

    2. A poster has to wait for at least five other posters to offer their choices before contributing again.

    3. Try and give reasonable effort (do a search!) to check for duplicates before adding any more scores.

    5. Let's not have any attempts to bend the rules, ie. "LOTR Trilogy" would count as three scores.

    6. The scores do not have to be available on CD.

    7. Include composer and year, for example:

    Road to Perdition (Thomas Newman, 2002)

    Now fire away!
