Movie editing software?

What is the best movie making software for making movies? I also want it to be somewhat affordable, preferably in the hundreds or below. I also want it to give my movie an effect that it was done professionally, like movies that get put in the theaters. Thanks. 10 points for best

MY top choices.





1. Adobe Premiere Pro 2. If you have the money theres only one choice. Money buys the best.

Premiere Pro 2.0 is the most scalable, efficient, and precise video-editing software available."





2. Roxio Easy Media Creator 9 Suite. The Poor Man's Cadillac. The affordable choice which will run circles around anything thats not Adobe.
