They say there's a movie buff in all of us. Ok, we made that up. Nevertheless, there's no denying that we enjoy watching movies and TV shows, some more than others. So, if you're a movie buff, you most likely already watch them on your phone or tablet, especially when on the move. Here are some apps that will interest you.

The first thing you'll need is a movie player and Archos is the answer. It's tailored for watching movies and TV shows. The player recognises the movie or TV show that you're watching and gives you information about the same.
From a personal point of view, this one is our favourite app. FreeBox is kind of an aggregator for movies, but not necessary the ones that are mainstream. You know how your friend often tells you he watched xyz movie on YouTube, but you can never find it? Well, FreeBox has all the movies that are available on YouTube, available for free of course.
Now then, that's all the watching taken care off. Let's watch some trailers now. This app is an aggregator of movie trailers. All you need to do is search for the movie and the app will give you the trailer for it.
Watch movies, check, watch TV Shows, check, watch trailers, check, now what? Watch more of course, and for that you need some suggestions. Enter Movie Twist. This app gives you suggestions about what movies you should watch, based on your mood and choices.
If after all of the above, you still happen to carry movies around on your device, then Moviethek would be useful for you. It recognises the movies on your phone/tablet and gives you information on the same, including the info from IMDB.
Movie watching is never quite complete without the right subtitles. So, this app will do that for you. It will take the movie files you have on your phone and find subtitles for the same.
