To sign "adore" (often referred to as "kiss-fist" in ASL), start by forming your dominant hand into an "S" handshape, making a closed fist. Bring the back of your fist to your mouth and lightly touch it to your lips. Finally, move your fist forward and slightly downward away from your face. This sign is commonly used to express that you absolutely love or are a huge fan of something.
Sign 'movie', then use the 'adore' sign with an enthusiastic facial expression to show your strong preference for it.

No, this sign is generally used to express a strong liking or fandom for things, such as a favorite food, band, or activity. For romantic or familial love, use the standard 'love' sign by crossing your arms over your chest.
You don't have to make a loud kissing sound or leave a mark, but your lips should lightly touch the back of your fist—or come very close to it—before you move your hand forward.
It depends on the context. In ASL, 'adore' in the sense of being a huge fan of something uses this 'kiss-fist' motion. The general sign for 'love' (crossing arms over the chest) is different and usually reserved for people or deep emotional bonds.
