After a brief delay while the remote server is contacted, and depending upon the speed of your internet connection, a datagrid populated with local theaters will soon appear at center screen.
Top Datagrid
Once this grid appears, click on any theater in the grid. The moment you click on a theater, a second grid will appear below the top grid filled with movies playing at the selected theater. See picture below:
Clicking on a theater name displays alll the movies playing at that theater to appear in the bottom datagrid
Once you find the theater that you're most interested in, just click on its name. Once you do this a second datagrid will appear below the top datagrid. This new bottom datagrid will display all of the movies playing at the theater you clicked on in the top datagrid. See the picture below for details:

If a second grid does not immediately appear when you click on a theater, it may be because the background tabs are still loading their respective web pages and the main application loop is temporarily blocked as the tabs load in the background. Waiting until all of the progress bars are fully green before clicking on a theater in the top grid is then advised. You will find a small progress bar above every tab in the application, except for above the "GetMyMovies" tab. These progress bars let the user know when something is happening on the various web browsers behind each tab. See the picture below to identify progress bars which are fully green. Green progress bars mean that the tab's page has been fully loaded. Empty progress bars mean that either nothing is happening on the tab or that the tab has been reset.
Status bar arrows - Green means loading complete - white means no activity or reset
Once you find a movie that you're interested in reading more about, click on its name in the lower datagrid. Once you do this the web browsers behind the "MovieInfo", "Reviews", and "Preview" tabs will load.
