David...he's a troll. Didn't you read all our
comments?

uh oh.
sorry


Why did I just see a flash of that Simpson's episode where Bart shoplifts?

::Security escorts Bart through store; Santa offers Bart a candy cane::
Santa - Merry Christmas little boy!
Security - No, no. Not this one.
Santa - Oh...I see.
::Santa glares and crushes the candy cane to bits in his hand::

Way better. Imovie is nothing!

Actually, Matt Gordon got 20 points out of the deal. My guess is he's trying to work the system. To what effect? To get to Level 4 and have access to the lounge, of course!

Step 1: post a whole bunch of stupid questions using a different username
Step 2: answer that question 3 times with a different username and mark those answers helpful and solved
Step 3: become a level 4 overnight!!!

Wow. 🙂

With that as his equipment list, I wonder why he is bothering. Why be a level 4 APPLE guru, when you own a PC?

And are obviously dumb as a sack of hammers.

If you have a really bad script idea for a movie, you should edit it with FCP rather than iMovie - it automatically generates a better movie for you using some complex algorthmic scripting and wavelet compression. Apple spent a lot of time developing these technologies for making movies better, hence the increased cost of the software. If they'd used FCP on Battlestar Galactica, for example, they would probably have guaranteed at least a $75m box office.

However, if your movie has a really good concept, you should probably go ahead and just edit it in IMovie and save yourself almost a thousand dollars in the process. You can spend that money elsewhere, such as in lighting or craft service. You won't see the difference up on the big screen, and your crew will have gotten much fatter into the bargain.
