General
- moviepilot.de Great site organized into the categories listed below; in each category, once you click on a movie, you have access to trailers, reviews ["Kritik"], info about whether/where you can see it in theaters ["im Kino"] etc.
- Filmtipps ==> "Filme entdecken" [=discover] lets you browse for movies; "Schnelltest" asks you to rate a selection of movies, then suggests movies you may like
- Programm ==> Find out what's in theaters, on TV, on DVD, or available "on demand" through the site (you would pay by credit card; I doubt that this would work from the US, however)
- News ==> Browse the "Überblick" [=overview] of current "movie-news," or try the "Quizze" or "Gewinnspiele" [=contests]. In the latter category, you typically email in a response to a question in order to win a prize; again, I doubt you'd be eligible if you enter from the U.S.

bye Lenin! Very successful, witty and entertaining
2003 movie with a great premise: a young man is arrested
for protesting against the East german government
shortly before the fall of the wall. His mother sees
the police arrest him, suffers a heart attack and
falls into a coma. When she awakes, the wall is gone,
but her frail health makes it dangerous for her to
get this kind of shocking news--so the son tries to
hide it for her by making everything in their flat
seem as if the GDR still existed....
