In any given year, there's can be a certain drop in quality when it comes to some actors and directors. Ben Foster comes to mind as a high-roller (The Messenger had a Tomatometer of 90 percent) and a low one (Pandorum, which Foster also starred in, had 27 percent.)
So it's fitting we had Matt Atchity, Editor-in-Chief of Rotten Tomatoes, stop by the Year-Endies to help present our Quality Chasm Awards.

It's looking mighty clear that Twilight Saga: New Moon will be the big dog this weekend, but don't just take my word. Let Brett and Ellen give you a quick guide to what's out today and after the jump, we'll go line by line into your vampire alternatives.
-The Blind Side may just be reverse-Precious, but people seem to dig Sandra Bullock's performance.
-Planet 51 is a giant "fish out of water" story, but in space. And an Alien reference. HIGH FOUR.
-Twilight Saga: New Moon will make a lot of money this weekend and make Eclipse happen.
In limtied release:
-Red Cliff is the streamlined version of John Woo's two-part historical epic.
-Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans is Werner Herzog's horrible film, yet must be seen to appreciate the mangled abortion that is Cage as Kinski.
-Staten Island could be...eh...something?
-Broken Embraces is the latest from Pedro Almodóvar that fully embraces Pop Art and melodrama in a way that only he can.
Unfortunately, we're dark next week, so there's no new episode of The Rotten Tomatoes Show on Thursday. So eat some turkey, tofurkey or just order out!
But we'll be looking for webcam reviews for Ninja Assassin, The Road and The Princess and the Frog starting on Wednesday!

The Academy held its traditional luncheon for this year’s Oscar nominees at the Beverly Hilton – and what better opportunity for this sometime-actress to ask the world’s best actors about… acting.
Unlike Brett’s experience at the Oscar Nominations ceremony, it was pretty easy for me to snag a third row seat between a Japanese reporter and a freelancer for BET.
Yes! At my very first Oscar luncheon press conference, I, Ellen Fox, was going to geek out and gather the pearls of wisdom from what I saw as an impromptu Master Class – and for that, Woody Harrelson, I do apologize. First up was Gabourey Sidibe, who immediately loosened thing up by sassing:
After sharing that her role as a sexually-abused teen in Precious has inspired many people to confide in her, she was asked which of her scenes from the film she’d like shown at the Oscars:
Ah! Proof that Sidibe’s knack for humor is what saved Precious from becoming the downer we were expecting it to be. Then we swung from Sidibe's charm to the arrival of Certified Movie Star, Sandra Bullock. In person, she comes across way more savvy and Type-A (like her character in The Proposal) than America’s Sweetheart. I was surprised how candid she was talking about the business end of show biz:
Lee Daniels, director of Precious,was a love: emotional when fielding Frenchy questions about the power of art and ebullient when lauding the “bad-ass” actresses who brought the film’s classroom scenes to life:
Vera Farmiga looked the frickin’ Hollywood knockout in a blue dress, updo and red lipstick! There's talk of Madonna directing her in the role of Wallis Simpson. Here’s how she responded to my question about playing Up in the Air’s frequently frisky flyer, Alex:
Carey Mulligan popped in with a golden pixie cut a la Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby. She seemed relaxed but kept herself in check:
Jeff Bridges strolled in and the room, and probably the world, smiled. When I asked how he was able to make Crazy Heart’s country singer Bad Blake so toxic but so likeable, the word “adorable” just popped out, I swear!
Now, here’s what happened to Woody Harrelson when I decided to ask him about craft.
Now who wants Burrito?
