Do you know the names of all the Movies featured in the first iPhone Ad?
Here's the names of most of the 31 movies found in the first iPhone ad. Most of the movies have a link to more information about the film. This ad must have cost of fortune in copyrights clearance. I haven't check to see if those movies are now all available in the iTunes Store. Maybe Apple is slowly announcing something new for the iTunes Store as well! Just guessing!
Thanks to Philip Michaels for the compilation. If you find the missing information, let us know! Here's a link to the ad if needed!
