the your favorite campy roles, such as scream queen, zombie, or kung fu fighter. Premiering exclusively on Xbox 360 for the 2008 holiday season, You're in the Movies is the perfect choice for casual or group gaming. Prepare yourself to be transported into a magical world of cinema that is amply spiced with plenty of hilarious improvisation.

Capture the Fun with the Xbox LIVE Vision Camera
Xbox 360 brings You're in the Movies to life with the Xbox LIVE Vision camera. This device easily connects to your Xbox 360 and captures players' actions in your very own living room. Your actions are then spliced into short, knee-slapping films that highlight the unique and often far-fetched talents of your friends and family. Each performance is certain to incite riotous laughter, but the best part is you'll never run out of options with You're in the Movie's massive collection of clips, snippets, scripts, and characters. And since you're running the show, no clip will be quite the same and no scene ever ends up on the cutting room floor. Playing You're in the Movies is your time to be the star.

Become a B-Movie Superstar
You're in the Movies gives players a choice of fun and kitschy scripts -- there's no talk of highbrow writing here -- but a B-movie star like yourself can't be too picky. Your character of choice might be an action hero or silent film star, but it doesn't really matter. Just pick a genre, pick a script, and get on the set, because the director is ready to call "Action!"

Beat out the Competition in Casting Call
Casting Call is another game play option. In this mode, up to four people can try to take the spotlight and play starring roles. During this game play mode a director guides actors through their roles with simple instructions and quick feedback. In fact, each actor will receive a rating based on physical performance. This scoring system creates fun competition and keeps players from getting too lazy.

Take over the Director's Chair
Jump into Director Mode and cut a trailer for the movie you just made. Getting the distribution deal (even if it is straight-to-DVD) is great, but unless you have a solid trailer, no one will ever go see your flick. Head off to the editing room and pull together all the great moments to impress your future audience. It's really quite impressive. With the Xbox LIVE Vision camera you can capture player movements using a green-screen-type technology. You're in the Movies allows you to document, save, share, and relive all the best and most hilarious performances.





Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - great family entertainment!
I read a LOT of reviews on this product before buying it for my kids this Christmas- nearly all of them were written by serious "gamers" and 20-somethings who viewed this as a potential drinking/party game......none of those people liked this game AT ALL. they became bored with it quickly, the camera wasn't sophisticated enough, on and on. However, when I came to the 1st review on amazon by a family ( who posted an actual video of their game play, thank you very much!!!) I knew right away this was a game my kids would love. ( I think it is pretty fun myself!) The camera does act up once in awhile, but the kids really don't get that upset about it- usually if you mess with the lighting a bit or change the angle you can get it back on track. Every kid in my neighborhood has been over to play it ( even the new WII owners ditched their game time to come play at our house!) We have kids ranging from age 6 to 14 playing this game and they all think it's a blast! So. my review is , great for families-
