Fancy watching some classic clips from E.T., Jurassic Park or The 40-Year-Old Virgin on your mobile? Soon you’ll be able to, courtesy of a deal announced this week by Universal Studios and mobile game publisher I-play. They’ve teamed up to create a mobile video channel called Magic Moments, which will initially offer clips from the above films, along with The Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift, Animal House, The Breakfast Club and Sixteen Candles.
“People love to talk about, reminisce over, and imitate their favorite moments from film and television,” says Universal’s Jeremy Laws. “Now those same fans can have clips from Universal’s rich film and TV library anywhere they go, anytime they want them.”
Does anyone have any favourite moments from any The Fast And The Furious movie? Just a thought. Magic Moments is interesting because it’s seemingly bundling clips from films that have already been out, rather than whacking together trailers of future movies. Whether there’s a demand for this remains to be seen though.
