Should have had it quicker than I did. Took a second for the "Aha!" moment.
Nice puzzle!!
Nicely done. It took me a little bit of time to extract the answer, but it's perfectly sensible.
Yeah, I liked this puzzle also. Cleverly crafted.
Hmmm; got the titles; now what?
[4] just do what the puzzle says
[5] because that helps...

Very straightforward puzzle. Just center your attention, and follow the instructions.
Awesome puzzle!
[5] Ummmmm, yeah, that's the ticket... Huh?
I would totally go see Sling Runner.
"Sushi, mmm-hmmm...that's what my ex-wife called me, mmm-hmmm"
[9] The same directions help twice. It also helped that I wrote my answers to the first part in a fixed-width font.
I like Murdoctor - he always calls it right down the middle.
[11] Yeah, that fixed-width font thing didn't help me at all! Still lost!
The salt above isn't helping me.
[14] If you can't see it, there's not much more we can do for you. The answer is probably in between everything you're looking at. Somewhere near the middle...
[15] That did it, thanks!
If anyone is still stuck, see if you notice something ODD about the length of your answers to the first part.
Good puzzle. :)
Sheeeeesh! I had the answer staring me in the face forever; I tried putting it all together but I couldn't come up with a meaningful word. I looked again and realized that really was the answer.
Why do I always have trouble with the good doctor's puzzles???
You solved this puzzle in 4 minutes and 22 seconds and were the 167th Tanga member to solve it.
[5]'s salt was enough, after I had the titles.
Not sure this qualifies as "hard" one word wonder.
[20] It does if you are braindead like me!
Great Puzzle!
Speaking of that movie... I wonder when the next book is coming out...
Edit: Found my answer Sept 2008 for those that liked the first 2.
[23] thanks, that's all I needed to figure out the answer
can't wait for the final book :)
Really nice, Murdoctor. As always. Especially cool (I hope people noticed this) is that the "middle" are, naturally, movies, as well. Love it.
Very clever and fun!
Wow! This one was really neat. I'm always really impressed when a puzzle design is this tight. I just can't imagine how long it takes to find all the information you need to construct something like this. And I'm surprised there actually exists a set of clues that works this way. (Makes me wonder if anyone could come up with a different version of the puzzle that worked the exact same way but had a different answer?)
Well crafted, Murdoctor.

Last night I couldn't crack it -- i was rocking side-to-side in misery. And now I'm jumping up and down, I'm so proud.
YAY! I got one of the hard ones! I couldn't for the life of me get the Vital & Wonders one, though.... GRRR! Nice puzzle!
Thanks [17]. Had the titles but couldn't figure out where to go. Down the middle, of course!
[27] I had a handful of other possible clues I could have used, with several other possibilities of final answers... so I'd say it is feasible to construct another similar puzzle with a different answer. However, I chose what I did based on popularity of movies (some of the other choices were more obscure, like "Billy the Kid in Paradise") and the relative smoothness/awkwardness of the middle-merge (such as "My Stepmother is an Nation")... along with the fact that this final answer fits in with the overall theme.
Unfortunately, I did wind up forgoing the use of a few that I liked: "Picture Stranger", "Hold That Rider", and "A Touch of Action".
Glad you all liked the puzzle!
Nice Puzzle!
IMDB and [31] are all the salt that you need.
Well crafted.
I think this is the first one I figured out without any help from anyone, helps that I am a movie trivia freak, I guess

I haven't the faintest idea how one is *supposed* to figure this thing out, but [23]'s salt gave it to me, so now I will attempt to backsolve.
great, great puzzle - nicely done!
