Landscape mode should be for videos or gaming only. I use my IPad in portrait mode most of the day unless I'm either watching a video, checking stock charts, or gaming. Whoever signed off on this latest disaster update does NOT belong in app design. I never rate any app because my time is too valuable to waste time helping companies better their products without paying me a dime, but now I have to waste my time finding a new app to replace this one. So far, Yidio seems to fill the void for now.
When Flixster disciplines the employee who signed off on this and reverts back to the previous layout, I may forgive and reinstall the app. However, I think they owe all of us users who made Flixster popular a big apology. Netflix and other companies have done the same. Now Flixster should follow suit.
