Rotten Tomatoes and Movieclips team up for YouTube network

Rotten Tomatoes, one of the leading film and television reviews-aggregation sites, announced today its collaboration with the industry leader in movie scenes and trailers on YouTube, Movieclips, to form a new video network known as the Rotten Tomatoes YouTube Network. The resulting creation will serve as the perfect landing spot for entertainment fans to watch over 100,000 short and long-form videos from their favorite films and television programs as well as view teasers for upcoming projects.

With these two entertainment staples joining forces, the Rotten Tomatoes YouTube Network will now serve over 90 million subscribers. Previously, Movieclips curated its content around movie clips and trailers. By collaborating with Rotten Tomatoes, the network will increase its coverage and add television and streaming to its platform. The network will feature 10 active channels such as Rotten Tomatoes Movieclips, Rotten Tomatoes Trailers, Rotten Tomatoes TV, Rotten Tomatoes Classic Trailers, and more. Plus, expect to see celebrity interviews, entertainment news, event coverage, and fan debates on the network.

In addition to the network, Rotten Tomatoes announced the formation of two new podcasts: Rotten Tomatoes Aftershow and Rotten Tomatoes Binge Battle. Aftershow will feature top Rotten Tomatoes and Fandango personalities discussing the latest film releases. Previous episode topics include Top Gun: Maverick and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Binge Battle will have Rotten Tomatoes Contributing Editor Mark Ellis serving as the moderator for a spirited debate between two contestants about popular television shows such as Euphoria, Ted Lasso, and Better Call Saul.

What’s safe for kids to watch on YouTube?
Child Using Smartphone

With many schools closed, families have suddenly found themselves juggling their work-from-home responsibilities with the needs of attention- and entertainment-starved children. It can be a difficult balance to maintain, and even the most screen-averse parents are being tested in what has quickly become the new normal for families.

There are plenty of highly curated, subscription-based streaming video services available, such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, or Disney+, but one of the largest and most accessible video platforms continues to be Google's video-sharing hub, YouTube. With that reach and accessibility, however, comes more than a few concerns -- particularly for parents.

3 underrated (HBO) Max movies you should watch this weekend (June 28-30)
A girl looks at a boy in House at the End of the Street.

June is surprisingly over, and with it, a great month for movies comes to a satisfactory close. You've probably watched Inside Out 2 or Bad Boys: Ride or Die or maybe even The Bikeriders. From blockbusters to indie fare, the theatrical movie business has been robust and healthy.

The same goes for streaming. Netflix had a big hit with Richard Linklater's Hit Man, while Amazon Prime Video recently premiered the latest bonkers season of The Boys. HBO and Max have been quieter, but their robust library speaks volumes to the streamer's high quality. The following three films are older, but are just as worth your time as new hits like House of the Dragon season 2.
The Skin I Live In (2011)
