of the ones you mentioned, i'd have to say Anderson/Mothersbaugh, only because they seem to compliment each other the best.

I agree that Spielberg/Williams is the best collaboration ever, with the best results for each film with very few exceptions.

Just to remind people which films they made together (practically all the Spielberg films):

1974 - The Sugarland Express
1975 - Jaws
1977 - Close Encounters of the Third Kind
1979 - 1941
1981 - Raiders of the Lost Ark
1982 - E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial
1984 - Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
1985 - Amazing Stories (TV)
1987 - Empire of the Sun
1989 - Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
1989 - Always
1991 - Hook
1993 - Jurassic Park
1993 - Schindler's List
1997 - The Lost World
1997 - Amistad
1998 - Saving Private Ryan
1999 - The Unfinished Story (Documentary)
2001 - A.I. Artificial Intelligence
2002 - Minority Report
2002 - Catch Me If You Can


BTW, why isn't Hitchcock/Herrmann on the list???
