Paramount Pictures will become the first major studio to make clips from thousands of its movies available for use on the Internet. This service gives Facebook users access to footage from thousands of movies. These movies can be sent to others on the popular social networking site.

“The short clips for a movie that you’ve already seen before helps you relive the moment,” Paramount senior vice president of entertainment Derek Broes said.

The studio will market DVDs of the movies through a button that appears after each clip is played. It eventually wants to use the application to virally market upcoming releases.
