Editing program
Which is better and easier to use: Windows Movie Maker or Adobe(I forgot what's the specific name of the program, though)?
Also, please try to give me the different features of the two... Our class is making a film for our project and I need to learn how to edit soooo bad....
Thanks in advance!

For just a film project I say you should use Windows Movie maker, it's simpler and WAYYYYYYY easier to understand while Adobie Premier, is a proffessional editing system used to make movies, but does require loads of learning how to do. If you use windows you'll pick up on everything alot faster. It still has cool effects though, and you can add in voice overs or music if you wanted to, but not at the same time considering its pretty simple editing. If you're making a video that's going to be over the top with editing then use Adobe, but I doubt it.
Hope I helped :)

Ease of use and quality are often unfortunatly inversely proportional.
Adobe premier pro and after effects, while being significantly more complex then windows move maker, offer a far superior set of effects, styles, and all around quality of the final product. Many tutorials do exist to help in the learning process.
If all you want is played out static intros and rising or falling text, go with movie maker. Premier pro has a relatively simple interface for trimming, cutting, and moving clips and parts of clips around. Overlaying audio, moving clip audio, music etc. is pretty simple. They are expensive, but I believe they offer month long trials, or something to that extent.
After effects allows you to work in 3d with your clip, allowing you to really have some fun, but be wary, it will grab and tight to your systems resources and always beg for more. Make sure you've at least got a 2.6GHZ machine, at least 512MB of ram, and some space to store the final renders.
