Ry apps for your WE - Moviefone on Ipad



One of the things I like to do during the WE is to go and watch a nice movie (and stuff myself with popcorns:)). Depending on the time of the year you have more of less good movies or blockbusters launching. Sometimes,  you might just be looking for independent - non advertised - not Hollywood-type of movies. Then it's hard to find a theater showing this kind of production.

As always, there is an apps for that. Actually there are many apps out there for moviegoers and Hollywood fans. Even online search engines (Google, Bing, Yahoo,...) are doing a not too shabby job helping you find what you need. On the go or while traveling, it's a different ball-game!  On the Ipad, there are at least 4 goods apps : Moviefone from Yahoo, ImDb from Amazon, Movies by Flixter and Fandango. They all share similar features such as showtime, coming soon, box office, theater nearby, DVD release.

IMDb
Moviefone is unique in the sense that it has all the features listed above but adds on top of that all what's best in any other apps. It's a sort of hub dedicated to movie almost an encyclopedia.

What to expect?

From the homepage, you'll jump right on to the meat of the apps key features. News, In theaters, Top box office, coming soon and DVD are available right when you launch Moviefone. It's visually appealing, sleek and easy to use. Trailer for instance are available in customizable definition (standard to HD) but always with a nicer quality (all things being equal) than on competitive apps. You'll get access to a wide variety of trailers and especially those exclusive to Moviefone (clips, interviews and Q&A with movie cast) News are coming from various movies sources and are always informative. Everything is perfect from the content, to the picture quality of the images displayed. Movie posters or DVD packagings are also benefiting from this treatment.
