I'm obsessed with the movie Inception! I've been listening to the soundtracks for ages and only just stumbled across this topic.
My personal favorite from Inception is this one. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0kGAz6HYM8)
or
From Tron Legacy: Solar Sailer. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRvVyMuWbpM)

Although I love every song from Tron Legacy.

Any of John Williams's epics:
-Indiana Jones - main theme, "Crusade of the Slave Children" (Temple of Doom)
-Star Wars - Main theme, "Imperial March", "The Asteroid Field"
-Superman - Main theme
-Harry Potter - Main theme
-Jurassic Park - Main theme
and so forth

Honorable mention:
-Pirates of the Caribbean - main theme
-Lord of the Rings - pretty much all of it, but especially "The Uruk-Hai", "The Lighting of the Beacons"
-Batman - main theme (Danny Elfman)
-James Bond - main theme
-Ben Hur - "Parade of the Charioteers"
-The Incredibles - "The Incredits"
-Star Treck (2009) - main theme
....I should stop.

Aw, geez. I made this huge post and didn't even notice video game themes were allowed. Well, it seems a second installment will be required. Sorry about the huge post.

That's a pretty good list Captain.
The "Imperial March" has to be the best character theme music ever.

Here's another cracking piece of cinematic history, if you mute the music (Ecstacy of Gold - Ennio Moricone (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmdAsL1n6q4)) you can see how vitally important it is for this scene.

Seeing as no one's mentioned games yet, I think the Gears of War trailers deserve an honourable mention. I've never been as excited for a game as when I watched the trailers for the 1st and 2nd games.
Gears of War - Mad World - Gary Jules (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccWrbGEFgI8)
Gears of War 2 - How It Will End - Devotchka (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYWF2-WkDvU), I Have a Rendezvous with Death - Alan Seeger (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8GgCK_AUyA)

This has to be mentioned if we're going into Shawshank territory: The Marriage of Figaro - Mozart (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azWVPWGUE1M)

Alright, heading into video game territory.

Zelda: Ocarina of Time -- Classics.  Gerudo Valley (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsRtpr-bo9U), Song of Storms (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkYEJXN2QWk), Saria's Song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uInmFU6JkU)
Zelda: Minish Cap -- It's a GBA song, so don't expect the highest sound quality. Cloud Tops (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgJj5LJEiiY)
Zelda: Link to the Past -- Castle theme (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shovuvHhFDc), Dark World theme (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sslj06K-Nlw)
...That's enough Zelda for now. Moving on!

Megaman 5 -- Gravity man, specifically this remix (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i337vwBUGmo)
Total Annihilation -- all of it, but Warpath (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGdfarT244Y&list=PL3B5F0CC93ECF4732) and Attack!!! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_SvjZElgno&list=PL3B5F0CC93ECF4732) are some of the best tracks. The best part: the music only plays when your units are in a conflict, making any skirmish an epic battle.
VVVVVV -- again, all of them.Positive Force (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18pqyuWqtb8), Pressure Cooker (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUc5bLM3w5Q), and Pushing Onwards (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYANYGCgRz4) are some of the best.
Cave Story: I'm linking to the remastered versions from the + and 3D ports, but the originals are just as amazing. On to Bushlands (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBqE9xMJtMc&list=PL9888C5ED8678F0EE), Plantaion/Title Screen (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEVo7kqUOCM&list=PL9888C5ED8678F0EE), Last Battle (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Np8CYBL1DCs&list=PL9888C5ED8678F0EE&index=30&feature=plpp_video)
Super Mario Galaxy -- My brother actually bought the CD to this. Good Egg Galaxy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzYBrUl926c), Gusty Gardens Galaxy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-z2kxFCQ_mQ), and the Final Bowser Battle (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIuvjG3Egjo)

Yikes, I'm not even halfway through my favorites. I'll take mercy and stop here.
Oh, and Unholy_Gibbon, I call foul on the Gears tunes. They weren't made specifically for the games :P
