    I'll have to agree with what Octavian said. I Also Have the Harry Potter Theme Tune stuck in my head sometimes.

    I'm really surprised that you didn't add the famous "Star Wars" theme.

    Star Wars and James Bond. EVERYBODY knows those, whereas the others you listed are just very recognizable.

    Add Mission Impossible, but maybe that shouldn't count since that was TV show too.

    My Most Recognizable Themes:
    Star Wars: A theme and opening sequence copied and parodied many times over
    Jaws: That simple yet terrifying rythm
    Gladiator: Simply Magnificient, of course I'm biased since this is one of my favorite films of all time
    Rocky: I can't believe no one else picked this
    The Godfather: One of the best films ever made with an excellent theme and score (the first one, the other two not nearly as much)

    And I agree with Torment, and with Rocky which is so recognizable, I'm forced to refer to you all as unwashed savages.

    Jaws, most certainly. Simple, creepy and tense all at the same time. Everytime I hear it I shudder and get the unstoppable urge to buy a harpoon.
