VUDU throwing Rotten Tomatoes reviews on every movie it sells

Next step for VUDU after adding LG's BD390 to its list of compatible players? The streaming service is now trying to help you figure out which movie to watch with help from the website Rotten Tomatoes, integrating its ratings directly into the movie listings as seen above. Viewers can sort by Tomatometer score and see quotes from top reviews directly on their HDTV screen. Sure it's not auto Twitter updates and IMDB clippings on what scene, movie and actor you're watching, but if they're not going to reduce the cost per rented (or purchased) streaming flick, at least VUDU can help you pick one that's actually good. Check out another screen capture from the new addition after the break.

I just upgraded the firmware on my bg390 & signed up for VUDU and I have to say... I watched Observe and Report in HD (on a Panasonic 42" plasma) last night and the quality of picture and sound was very high (even over wifi). I felt it was far better quality than most of the HD content I've viewed on Netflix streaming. The flicks are a bit spendy, but nice alternative and great addition to the system. The RT reviews are a cool addition (if you put much weight in RT's assessment of film).
