I have the Rimsky-Korsakov book and I absolutely love it! Taught me everything I know about the orchestra and orchestration.
Of course what I would really love is a more modern day orchestration manual that talks about some of the more modern techniques employed in movies - like Hans Zimmer, for example. I love the way he combines synthetic sounds with orchestral instruments and I totally wish he'd write a book or something on it.
