Online Movie Resources

Every now and then we all like to enjoy a good movie at the theatre. New movies are coming out each week, so it’s easy to entertain over selves with a good movie.

The awesome thing about the internet world is just about anything can be found there. If you are looking for a particular movie, even locations where it is showing or a synopsis, you can search it online. You can find information on all kinds of genres from horror, dramas, comedy, action to suspense movies.

Things have really changed from way back then before the internet. You had a bit more work to do when searching movie times and locations.

Looking in the almost obsolete telephone book was where you started. You would look up each theatre to find numbers so that you could call the automated system to hear what is playing there and at what times before choosing which theatre you wanted to drive to.

This was a little irritating at times though. You had to keeping calling until the line was clear if it were a busy night like a weekend and if you called in and didn’t hear your movie time, then you would have to wait on the line until the recording started all over again.

Now a days, you no longer need to worry about those automated services. You can search right on your home computer. All you need to do is search the movie title, the theatre name, or just simply new releases and you will find what you need and so much more. And don’t worry, you can still find those show times.

You may also want to take a look at those movie trailers that will come up with your search as well. This way before you spend all your money on a movie you may not like or know anything else about, you should take a look at a few of the scenes so that you know what you are getting yourself into.

A good website to see trailers is: apple trailers. Here you can see the current films playing and decide which movie you would prefer to see.

Before you make your decision, look at how the movie is rated. This can help sway your decision to if you want to view it or not.

Question by : Tips for making a fake movie trailer?
I’m entering the film festival for my high school. I’m considering submitting in the trailer category, and I already have an idea for my film and everything. The trailer can be 4 minutes maximum. What’s difficult is I’m not doing the typical thing that professional filmmakers do to make trailers- I’m not actually making the full length film, so it’s not like the footage I use for the trailer is selected from hours of footage. I’m actually going to create a script and collect footage for the TRAILER. I know this can be very tricky, so I’m wondering if anyone has any tips?

I think your best choice would be to make a parody of the formulaic, predictable trailers we see all the time–cliched dialogue, dramatic music, explosions (make them *clearly* fake), a random kiss scene thrown in there somewhere, a character screaming “NOOO!” and then a joke put in at the end for comedic effect.

Sneak Peek: The Week in Movie Trailers
Easy Money is a Swedish film that came out in 2010 under the title Snabba Cash (which, if you ask me, is a way cooler name), but it's only now making its way stateside. As is customary for American trailers of foreign films, there's no dialogue, but …
