The Nutcracker in 3D Giveaway!

Can you believe that except for The Nutcracker there are no holiday themed movies this Thanksgiving?

From the imagination of acclaimed Russian director Andrei Konchalovsky, the cherished story of The Nutcracker will be brought to life in spectacular 3D this holiday season. THE NUTCRACKER IN 3D follows nine-year-old Mary (Elle Fanning) whose dull Viennese Christmas is suddenly filled with excitement and adventure following the arrival of her beloved Uncle Albert (Nathan Lane) and his gift of an enchanted nutcracker.

On Christmas night, Mary’s new friend, The Nutcracker (Charlie Rowe) or “NC,” comes to life and takes her on a wondrous journey into his magical world of fairies, sugarplums, and other Christmas toys which come to life. Mary soon realizes that this fantastical kingdom is facing danger from the tyrannical rule of the evil Rat King (John Turturro) and his devious mother (Frances de la Tour). When NC is taken hostage, Mary and her newfound toy friends must uncover the secret of the Rat King to rescue NC and his kingdom.

Based on the story that inspired acclaimed Russian composer Piotr Tchaikovsky to create the music for the iconic ballet, the film includes eight exciting new songs penned by Oscar-winning lyricist and librettist Sir Tim Rice (The Lion King, Evita, Jesus Christ Superstar).

Here’s a sneak preview:

Join My Spark E Crew!

Wall-E was all about changing the world one piece of trash at a time. Well, Spark-E is all about changing the world one blog at a time. I have seen how blogs can truly change things for people, and I want you to be a part of that.

I was one of ten awesome bloggers that were chosen to be part of an exciting adventure for 2009 from Izea.com. As an insider, I am privy to top secret news that only my crew members get to know about, I’ll be giving out swag, and possibly even some meetups! I already know I’ll have some Izeafest tickets to give out!

Why should you sign up with social spark?  It is a great way to make money online. You can pick what things you want to talk about.  Sometimes you are writing about things that you check out online.  Other times you have the product in hand (http://mythoughtsideasandramblings.com/2009/04/09/walking-for-breast-cancer-network-of-strength/).  I got the pedometer and I got paid to write that post! They offer any kind of advertising you’re willing to do on your blogs.  If you just want to add a banner to your blog, you can get paid per click.  You can Twitter ads on your Twitter stream, if someone clicks it, you get paid.  You get to pick what you want to blog about — they don’t pick for you.  Now, you do have to qualify for the opportunity to be able to take it.  That could be living in the US to having certain traffic stats.  It is nowhere near as complicated as I know it must sound.  Now, all opportunities you take with them are “no follow” which means you don’t have to worry about Google taking away your page rank.  Also, all posts will have the disclosure badge you will see on the bottom of that post.  You are able to customize the color of it, so you can match it better to your blog.  Sounds great, right?

If you have a blog and haven’t signed up, here’s what to do:

Go to www.socialspark.com.   Basically, you just fill in the blanks — they will ask for your name, address, brands that you like, etc.  You need to make sure you pick Spark E as the crew you want to join.  Also, make sure you put in your blog information (URL, what your blogs about, etc). Once they accept your blogs, you are on your way to making money.
