I think you're comparing apples and pears. people *are* already 
publishing movie credits, such as on IMDb; and movies are /not/ simply 
video clips.

There may well be a valid case for there being a microformat for each - 
though I'd like to see the use-case for a movie microformat, as it's not 
clear from this thread.
