Facebook Messenger Movie Talk Gets Fresh Filters
Movie talking via Facebook Messenger is hardly a fresh feature, but it seems that Facebook is hoping that more users will begin to use it as they have announced a bunch of fresh features and updates to the service that is aimed to make it more joy and enticing for users, and this will come in the form of animated reactions, fresh filters, and so on.
According to Facebook, “Video talks with your friends and family in Messenger just got a entire lot more joy. Check out the awesome fresh features—like animated reactions, filters, masks and effects, and the capability to take screenshots—available for one-on-one and group movie talks. You can now share your emotions with a reaction, add a filter to feel like your best self, make someone laugh with a bear mask, and even take pictures of your time together.”

With reactions it’s pretty much the same with how you would react to regular Facebook posts, except that it’s done via movie talk and will look like in the screenshot above. There will also be filters so if you’re feeling moody, perhaps apply a black and white filter, or sepia, or something else. There will also be fresh masks added to Messenger which permits users to overlay funny pictures on their faces during talks.
This isn’t a fresh feature but like we said, Facebook is basically adding more options to the mix. In addition to all of this, Facebook has also made it lighter for users to snap screenshots of their movie talks via a camera button, meaning that you don’t have to fumble around for key combinations anymore.
