1. A method for movie segment bookmarking and sharing, the method comprising:
receiving, by a movie system executing on a processor through a user interface on a user device, an indication from a user to deep tag a portion of a video;
responsive to the indication, generating, by the movie system, a deep tag that deep tags the portion of the video, the deep tag comprising a deep tag identifier identifying the deep tag, a deep tag start time specifying a start time of the portion of the video, a deep tag end time specifying an end time of the portion of the video, and a pointer to a deep tag snapshot;
receiving, by the movie system through the user interface, an instruction to send the deep tag to a recipient, the instruction comprising a recipient identifier or address; and
sending, by the movie system, the deep tag to the recipient using the recipient identifier or address, wherein activating the deep tag on a device of the recipient causes a player to begin executing on the device of the recipient to play the portion of the video deep tagged by the user.
