Answer:

~Aladdin is also based heavily on themes. Aladdin himself is represented by "One Jump Ahead," Jaffar has a set of dark, descending notes, the Sultan has his own fanfare, Jasmine has a haunting little tune, and there is a lovey theme representing freedom. Jasmine's theme and the freedom theme were later combined to create a new song called "To be Free."

~Bambi has an repeating three-note theme for "Man" which gets louder and ominous to symbolize that he's getting closer. It has garnered comparisons to the theme from Jaws.

~Another leitmotif shows up in The Wizard of Oz (1939). This theme connects Ms. Gulch and the Wicked Witch of the West musically, implying for the viewer that they are, indeed the same villain, simply taking on different personas in Dorothy’s two worlds (Kansas and Oz).

~1983 holiday classic, A Christmas Story. Prokofiev’s “wolf” theme from Peter and the Wolf appropriately depicts the neighborhood bully Scut Farcus each time he approaches Ralphie and his friends.

Answer:

The movie Jaws has one of the most recognizable soundtracks in movie history (Main Title Track). It builds tension and lets the audience know when the killer shark is around.

Gonna Fly Now, the theme from Rocky, represents the boxer Rocky Balboa (portrayed by Sylvester Stallone). The theme portrays Rocky as a champion, and it accompanies each fight in which he triumphs over his opponent.

The Superman Theme from Superman acts as a leitmotif to depict the movie’s main character, who is a superhero. The music announces the entrance of Superman and reassures the audience that Superman will save the day.

Hedwig’s Theme in the first Harry Potter movie became the theme for the entire movie series. The music sets a fairy-tale mood and mimics the owl in flight, with serene violins and an accented brass section to underline her swoops and turns.
