Im looking for some realistic Orch sounds for movie projects and such

I've heard them breifly, but long enough to know that I wasn't happy with them.

If you're happy and you know it, clunk your chains.

i owned the emu Virtuoso 2000 for a while, which has the two 
orchestra cards installed. i bought it specifically for film work, 
and liked it a lot. for the money, you get a well-arranged, pretty 
good sounding set of orchestra sounds. they're not the best, but 
the combination of decent quality, ease of use, and price is 
strong.

if you want very realistic sounds, then you have to go with a 
sampler and nice sound library (very expensive.) this is what i 
eventually had to do. another option is the roland xv-series of 
synths. their new srv-strings expansion card is absolutely the 
best sounding orchestra ROM card out there. for instruments 
besides strings, you'd have to go with roland's older jv-series 
libraries, which i think are equal with the emu orchestra cards.

hope that's helpful!
