What do you MEAN I have an unhealthy obsession with movies?

Darn it. I may be speaking into deaf (or at least muffled) ears, but am I the only one here who finds this a difficult poll to answer based on the fact that
all of those scenes were pretty damned moving? And honestly, what does "moving" really mean? Arrrgh. Um, I guess I'll go with 'When Frodo and Bilbo depart' (they had to film that scene
3 times before it was right -- the hobbit actors say that, if ever there was a scene that they didn't want to go through more than once, it was that one for sure. Heh.) but really, my vote could go for any of these. Le sigh. The poll today on
IMDb was also not so fun, because it asks which April movie release you're most looking forward to. I went with
Sin City over
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy but it's all good 'cause those were the top two responses anyway. Man, I love the online fan community. :)
ETA:
Question: If you visited IMDB today, I assume you saw the news about Orlando Bloom being in negotiations to play a young James Bond?Yep, I did see that -- actually I heard about that particular 'news' a few days ago. I've got my
sources. Heh. Thanks for the heads up anyway. Who knows if it's true or not? I won't believe that until it's confirmed by someone reliable. Heck, for almost 2 years, I didn't believe that all of those people were really going to be making some movie called
Sin City until the movie actually started being promoted. It's a strange thing, seeing the progress of a movie from Crazy-Rumor to Actually-In-Production to Actually-Being-Promoted-With-Actual-Posters-and-Trailers to Actually-Being-Released. :)
