just got some time to actually thinking about the movie finder app we came up with (and half implemented) so far. Is it actually a better UI? Arguably it is even worse, with more redundant information, and just with a little bit more eye candies (posters).
For example, when we sort the table by theater name, if a theater has a lots of movies on show, the list of movies can easily use up the screen space, more importantly, the information about the same theater will repeat many times. The repeated theater information is becoming more of noises than useful information. Same thing applies when sorted by movies. Movie names, posters and other item increasingly become noise as there are more and more theaters showing the movie.
Whereas in Google movies, this kind of redundancy has been removed, while still allowing a user to sort the list. And also because of the nature of web app, integration with other apps (such as google maps) is deadly simple.
