So we have two scene categories to work with this year — plus a third category for best shot.  How we separate potential nominees into those three categories (and I think it's probably for the best if they're mutually exclusive) remains to be seen.  Thoughts?

Is it a Slumdog Millionaire homage?

I would doubt it, the Jonas Brothers are leaders, not followers. Plus, it's so much better, though I believe I nominated that Slumdog Mumbai chase as well, so let's hope this one makes the short list!

Slient Light - Crying in the rain. (This scene really haunted me for some reason)
-Le Chiffre: You changed your shirt, Mr Bond. I hope our little game isn't causing you to perspire.

-James Bond: A little. But I won't consider myself to be in trouble until I start weeping blood.

Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience - Opening Credit Sequence (Chase through city)

So, for now, I'm labelling one category as Dramatic and the other as Comedic.  Where's this Jonas Brothers scene belong?
