For me, hands down it's The Crow. NiN, The Cure, just some great music. Burn might be the most underrated song of the 90's.

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
Others off the top of my head:
Trainspotting, Almost Famous, Goodfellas, O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Boogie Nights, High Fidelity, etc.
Arise and walk, come through. A world beyond that door is calling out for you. Arise and walk, come through. It's calling out for you.
Pulp Fiction, The Matrix
Question: does Purple Rain count? Seems like it was a stand-alone album with the movie kinda surrounding it.
Speaking of Prince movie soundtracks, the original Batman (the one with Jack Nicholson and Michael Keaton) soundtrack was a must listen in my earlier years.
Edit: Gotta give a shout out to Donnie Darko soundtrack as well. Lots of great 80s stuff as well as a delightfully haunting cover of 'Mad World' by Gary Jules.

The Leftovers (TV show)
The Royal Tenenbaums
The Darjeeling Limited
28 Days Later
Twin Peaks (all the TV soundtracks and also Fire Walk With Me and the two Johnny Jewel releases with unused score from the new season)
Witness (awesome synth score)
Cool Hand Luke
Better Off Dead
Songs in the Key of X: Songs Inspired by the X Files (these songs weren't on the show, I don't think, and the songs are kind of bonkers and weird but a lot of big bands on this and it is a unique soundtrack for sure)
I can probably keep going if I looked through my record collection for ones I'm forgetting.

Guardians of the Galaxy 1 and 2. Have it on Spotify.

I agree with a lot of what has already been posted, so I'll add
Singles
Rushmore
Forrest Gump
The full Spotify soundtrack of Valley Girl is almost a perfect 80s time capsule. And you need that one because you don't get Electric Avenue, Eaten by the Monster of Love or Town Called Malice on the official version.
Yet, as an original work and a unified soundtrack, Kill Bill is tough to beat. RZA did something iconic there.
And upon further consideration, maybe it's Grosse Point Blank - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119229/soundtrack. It's got Motorhead and the Dazz Band.

I'm not a system player. I am a system.
Iron Man 2
Hugs, smiling, and interactive Twitter accounts, don't mean winning baseball. Until this community understands that we are cursed to relive the madness.
Singles
When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.

Star Wars
What would you say.....ya do here?
I don't know if it's the best, or even my favorite, but it's absolutely the one that goes the best with any movie I've seen. I don't remember scores/sound tracks to movies I watch. I remember that one. It's great.

Dude, some great stuff on there.

For me it is Grease. Cant take the little kid out of me.
Purple Rain and Vision Quest were favorites too.
Love the Singles soundtrack, but I've never seen the movie, so I can't count it.
A couple of old school choices:
The Third Man: Zither Power!
High Noon: One of the first examples of variations on a repeated motif.
Overall, I probably have to go with Star Wars, though.
Nice pick, honestly I didn't know how good it was until I just looked. What I knew was the only way to get the song "State of Love and Trust" by Peral Jam was to buy the Singles Soundtrack or Singles single.
The first one that popped into my head was Varsity Blues
