Here’s a fun little video with some movie news. Megan Fox runs for the border with drugs, Reese Witherspoon plays a killer, Johnny Depp plays the Mad Hatter, and Anika Noni Rose plays a Disney princess. Oh, and some "Breaking Dawn" news. 

Vin Diesel and "Fast & Furious" raced into the top slot at the box office this week, and I’m not surprised. I loved it, especially the opening scene! Reese Witherspoon is still up there in second place with "Monsters vs. Aliens." Here are the numbers from Box Office Mojo:

Well, this is fun news! Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are reportedly engaged to be married. They’ve been together for a while and seem like a great couple. They’re both in the acting business, so understand the rigors of the profession. And he always seems to be right at home with her kids – at least from what I’ve seen in photos and videos.

I love the holidays, because we don’t have to wait until Friday for the new movies to be released. They’re usually in theaters on Wednesday, which is ultra-cool. Here’s what’s new this week:
