ETA: Mods, I've tagged it for most of the fandoms. Could I get tags for: constantine (or Hellblazer), finding nemo (or Pixar), hanna, huge, millennium trilogy, the secret circle? I also have pulp fiction, jackie brown, death proof, but those are all for the Tarantino vid, so I don't know that they need separate tags (a Tarantino or Quentin Tarantino tag might be nice). ...I guess Batman Returns is covered by DC Comics (a single Batman tag could be useful?) (I'm not trying to be troublesome.)
