New Movies In Theaters This Friday November 6 2009
Wondering what movies are coming out to theaters this Friday, October 16, 2009? Here is a list with my intentions to watch at the movies, rent, watch on TV, or skip all together.
DEFINITELY WATCH AT THE MOVIES
Disney's A Christmas Carol
The story is old and tired but the visuals look excellent so I would definitely see this at the movies
Disney's A Christmas Carol Synopsis: Ebenezer Scrooge begins the Christmas holiday with his usual miserly contempt, barking at his faithful clerk and his cheery nephew. But when the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come take him on an eye-opening journey revealing truths Old Scrooge is reluctant to face, he must open his heart to undo years of ill will before it's too late.

The new Disney Movie A CHRISTMAS CAROL will be released to theaters on November 6, 2009. It will be starring the voices of Jim Carrey, Gary Oldman, Colin Firth, Robin Wright Penn, and directed by Robert Zemeckis. If you are planning to go see the movie, here are a few reviews from around the web to help you make up your mind.
Cinematical Review
The fear many of us had when it was announced Jim Carrey would play Ebenezer Scrooge and other parts in Robert Zemeckis' adaptation of A Christmas Carol was that Carrey's clowning would turn the story into a goofy farce. This fear turns out to have been unfounded. If anything, the opposite is true: The film has no personality at all, not Carrey's or anyone else's. Read More
TELEGRAPH.CO.UK Review
Deck the halls with boughs of computer-generated holly, for Disney are in bright and early with their seasonal extravaganza, and the good news -- of which there is some -- is that A Christmas Carol keeps the slush at bay with a reasonable dose of salt. Read More
RopeofSilicon.com Review
One thing's for certain with Robert Zemeckis's latest attempt at motion-capture CGI animation, kids need not apply. I have had conversations with fellow critics and the conclusion I've come to concerning children and Disney's A Christmas Carol is that while some elements may indeed frighten some kids, the overall complaint will be that it's just too boring.

Top 10 Christmas Movies of 2009
Once again, we are coming back with the list of the top 10 Christmas movies of 2009. Our 2008 Christmas movie list previously had some really good movies and this year is no different.
In order to be comprehensive, we once again decided to include movies starting in November because for us, Christmas always start a little early. Whatever you do, make sure you catch at least a few of these.
So without further ado, here are the Top 10 Christmas Movies we are looking forward to in 2009.
1. THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON
Director: Chris Weitz
Cast: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Ashley Greene, Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser, Kellan Lutz, Nikki Reed, Jackson Rathbone, Bronson Pelletier, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon, Billy Burke, Chaske Spencer, Edi Gathegi
Release Date: November 20, 2009
Whether you like it or not, The Twilight Saga: New Moon is definitely one of the most anticipated movie of the year and therefore had to top our Christmas Movie List for a second year in a row (see our Top 20 Christmas Movies of 2008). And since I am a fan of the Twilight series, The Twilight Saga: New Moon is my #1 movie to look forward to this Christmas.
Synopsis: In The Twilight Saga: New Moon, Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) is devastated by the abrupt departure of her vampire love, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) but her spirit is rekindled by her growing friendship with the irrestible Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner). Suddenly she finds herself drawn into the world of werewolves, who are ancestral enemies of the vampires, and finds her loyalties tested.

A CHRISTMAS CAROL Comic Con 2009 Panel
During the Comic Con 2009 panel for A CHRISTMAS CAROL, Robert Zemeckis not only showed a scene from the movie of Marley visiting Scrooge, but we got to see all of that on 3-D, which was actually pretty cool. The details of each of the characters faces are pretty incredible and I can't wait to see more this Christmas.
Here are a few highlights from the panel and what we can expect from A Christmas Carol:
- The movie will feature a lot of humor, although it's a serious movie, as well as a lot of 3-D action.
- In order to record all facial movements, they actually used flush technology to mimic all those human movements
- Robert Zemeckis thinks Jim Carrey is the perfect actor for capture recording, because he's great at building characters. He works with his whole body and understands comedic timing.
- Even though Zemeckis loves both live and animation movies, for now he's dedicated to animation, because it gives him control beyond the laws of physics.
- As to a possible sequel for Roger Rabbit, Zemeckis said that he could "neither confirm nor deny" anything, but that if it did happen, the main 2-D characters from the first movie would remain 2-D.
So there you have it! A Christmas Carol comes out to theaters on November 6, 2009. Until then, check out more pictures from the A Christmas Carol Comic Con 2009 panel below.
