iMovie Lite? - M$ Movie Maker Clone?
Does anyone know where i can find an app that is like M$ movie maker? Kinda like iMovie but it doesnt take so long to load videos, isnt as advanced/complicated, and turns it into a movie file?

Hm. When I read the thread title, I wanted to suggest using the version of iMovie that came with your Mac... What do you mean by "loading videos"? (What is the source: Files of what codec, camera?) And what do you mean by "turns it into a movie file"? MPEG-4? Or MPEG-2/DVD? DivX?

well... i dont really care what kind of file it turns it into but .mov or .mp4 would be best. The source of the music, pics, videos etc. would be just files of my computer

Well, then iMovie's your best bet and solution, I'd say.

And I doubt you'll find anything easier than iMovie for the task. iMovie really is at the very-easy end of the spectrum when it comes to video software.
