Despite the inefficiency, Moviolas have a few subtle advantages over digital film editing:

''* Undoing a cut with a Moviola and film splicer is time-consuming and complicated, thus and editor is liable to be more careful with the cuts he makes.  * Moviola cutting is done with rushes, and under most circumstances only one print of the rushes is ever struck. This makes multiple concurrent versions of a film, created by studio heads, producers, or other third parties to the director, a practical impossibility.''

''* When cutting on a Moviola, it is impossible to make one-off copies of a version of the film, without sending the work print off to telecine. Thus, it becomes very difficult to pirate a copy of the film out of the editing room.''

Hello, everybody, can I suggest that there is no interrelation between a given brand of editing device and the style one evolves ? I think it´s rather the physical presence of film which makes an editor behave differently at work. In reaction to the statements above I´d like to say, editor myself, that of course you can have several prints off a take. That is nothing else what you do in electronic compiling, it´s been here since decades. Naturally film positives will cost more money than digital clones. To close my point here, “inefficiency” is a most respectless word in this respect. The machine is never inefficient, it is man who judges it that way, or: Only a Poor Workman Blames His Tools. --80.219.135.52 17:59, 24 March 2007 (UTC) (Filmtechniker)

Filmmaking???
From the description: This project is an attempt to build a comprehensive and detailed guide to films and film characters on Wikipedia. How does this article describe a film or film characters? It describes equipment used to edit a film. I think this is the wrong classification. Opinions? Manway 18:23, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * The filmmaking WikiProject has been integrated into WikiProject Films as a task force, which means that the scope of WP Films has expanded to all film topics. I expect the banner will be updated to reflect this shortly. Girolamo Savonarola 18:58, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you for changing the category. I agree it fits better. Please do not erase talk that is not vandalism. Thank you. Manway 22:56, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * New topics go at the bottom. Girolamo Savonarola 22:58, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

You're right and I stand corrected. Apologies. Manway 23:00, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
