Have never used Windows Live Movie Maker before, so this should be fun. Thanks for the link too!
It is available for download here: http://www.windowslive.com/Desktop/MovieMakerToday Microsoft will release their newest version of Windows Live Movie Maker. This version allows for greater editing of videos including standard definition (4:3) videos and high definition (16:9) video support.
Windows Live Movie Maker allows for direct upload to both YouTube and Facebook (though plug-ins). Users are also able to burn straight to DVD, play video on high definition (HD) televisions and save in a variety of standard and high definition resolutions - 480i, 720i, 720p and 1080p. Auto Movie allows users to easily create a video automatically in under one minute using selected images, captions, a title and soundtrack to go along with the slides.
The new Movie Maker comes with dozens of polished features over previous versions. Live Movie Maker introduces a smarter storyboard, allowing faster and easier editing than before; audio editing within the storyboard is also available. Detailed animations are included for adjusting videos and images with a range of filters and transitions.

More...Brian Hall, General Manager for Windows Live, just has announced via the Windows Live Team Blog that the new Windows Live Movie Maker is now available. The new version of Windows Live Movie Maker is part of an update to Windows Live Essentials – available for download here. I’m currently running the new version of Windows Live Movie Maker on Windows 7 RTM and it will also run on Windows Vista too.
For more information on the new Windows Live Movie Maker, see Brian’s blog post or this awesome resource website which includes demo, HD samples and deep product info.
Sorry for such a short post, but I’m off to make me some movies!
I used the old Windows Movie Maker for years, and see the new one as a great improvement. It's a little different, but it's definitely more straightforward for the casual user. I just hate how they make you install Windows Live Photo Gallery to use it.
i can't believe they didn't add a dang timeline! and when i downloaded the latest beta, it gave me the blue screen of death when i was trying to interact with it, so im scared to give this one a try.
i downloaded it and i have no problems, but im still very disappointed with the fact that they didn't add a timeline. it could've been moved up from ok to good because i love the whole ribbon interface. i also love the mirror effects!
