I generally prefer Howard Shore’s film scores, but I loved Williams’ score for War Horse, and I also loved Yoda’s theme from the Empire Strikes Back.
Williams’ scores often seem too obvious and bombastic.
Having said this, at least Williams (and Shore) are classically trained composers; too much of what I hear from film score composers now is so bad, the alleged music sounds like it was written by someone from the Obama Madrassa School of Music!!

I’ve always been partial to James Horner myself.

However, I’ve also gotten to like Bear McCreary.
