Watching a movie on a Windows Phone 7 handset just got a little more interesting. Paramount Digital Entertainment's movie apps let you do more than simply watch a movie on a cell phone, now you can access similar features found on DVDs. The new movie apps will include the following features:

Clip Sharing: Create and share custom clips of favorite scenes with friends on Facebook, Twitter, or send via e-mail.

Scene It? In-Feature Trivia Game: Play the Scene It trivia game and share results with friends.

Movie Info: Access actor bios, music, historical information and even maps to film locations.

Chapter Selection & Bookmarking: Jump to favorite chapters in a movie or bookmark select scenes to view them later.

Search: Find items, products or people in the film using keyword search.

Mean Girls and School of Rock will be the first movies to receive these features (Note: If you already downloaded School of Rock, you'll get an update on your Windows Phone 7 to download the additional features). More movies will be added over the coming weeks including apps for True Grit, The Last Airbender, Zoolander, The Italian Job and more.
