When you mean, "movies" - do you mean video clips or Flash movies? If you mean video clips, then Flash MX 2004 and Flash 8 have built-in cue point features. Coincidentally, I was just doing some of this last night for a Flash 7 file. Using the Media Playback component, you can add cue points to video and display text on screen. I've even got the caption text in an external XML file that the client can edit if they need. Pretty easy to set up and looks pretty slick too. Information is in the help files.
