Selecting a whole clip without skimming in the new iMovie!
      Skimming is cool, but it's not always the best.  What if you want to select a whole clip because you don't want to cut anything from it.  Well, at first I thought I could just click on it and be ready to drag it to the timeline (or whatever is replacing the timeline).  What I realized though is that simply clicking on it will just select 4 seconds of the clip.  There is a way of quickly selecting everything though.  You just have to hold down "Option" and then click on it.  It will then select the whole clip.

you can also just do option + A and that will select the entire clip too!
