Take a gander with Brett and Ellen at this weekend with the new DVDs out this week, as well as three of the major film releases we'll be doing on next week's Rotten Tomatoes Show.
We're looking for your webcam reviews for:
Precious
The Men Who Stare at Goats
A Christmas Carol
Those videos need to be into us by Sunday [11/8] by midnight to count. If we use yours on the show, you get $100.
The other flicks opening this weekend:
-The Fourth Kind is a pseudo-science Milla Jovovich film that has a whole lot of fake "real" footage in it.
-The Box is the latest from Richard Kelly that promises to...push your buttons. Eh? Eh? Eh? No? Fine.
-Collapse is like 2012 but with a lot more horrible truths and grim realities using numbers.
-That Evening Sun has Hal Holbrook.
-La Danse: The Paris Opera Ballet is the sole film out in limited release with a 100 percent tomatometer.

YPNation contributor Kate Tighe takes a lesson from A Christmas Carol on giving--as little as she feels she has, the children, and others, she sees each day on the streets of Manila have far less.
http://bit.ly/84jg4S
Here's an excerpt of what she had to say: "It struck me that as I mature—as I become comfortable in the working world, earn more, learn to enjoy the privileges of my salary, eat more, and as I walk past my share of beggars on the street—Dickens' message becomes more and more relevant.
When the Ghost of Christmas Present pulled back his robes to reveal the snarling animal-like twins--the boy, Ignorance, and the girl, Want--I was nailed to my seat with recognition.
Child poverty is more obvious in Asia than in most places in the United States. Children in the Philippines beg at taxicab windows, some carrying babies á la "Slumdog Millionaire."
Often, when I give to these kids, I am told that, at worst, I am funding a mafia that exploits them, and at best, I am encouraging them to play in traffic, which is especially dangerous in Manila.
My argument was that they're just kids, and I want them to feel…good. But of course I know this type of giving is not, in itself, a solution."YPNation contributor Kate Tighe takes a lesson from A Christmas Carol on giving--as... more
