Win tickets to see Cloverfield before it's UK release! I have two pairs of tickets to give away to a special screening of Cloverfield in London. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post (with a valid email address so I can contact you) and when the competition closes I'll randomly pick the winners (or rather the bespoke BDO C# randomiser that I have written will).
The showing is in London, at the Odeon in Covent Garden on Sunday 27th January 2008 at 6pm.
The competition closes at midday GMT on Friday 25th January.
If you don't know about Cloverfield you can't have been alive on the Science Fiction interweb this last year, but here's the synopsis:
"Five young New Yorkers throw their friend a going-away party the night that a monster the size of a skyscraper descends upon the city. Told from the point of view of their video camera. The film is a document of their attempt to survive the most surreal, horrifying event of their lives."
So basically, it's a monster movie, in New York, produced by JJ Abrams. Surely there's nothing else you need to know? But if there is, watch this. The official site is www.cloverfieldmovie.co.uk
I also just found the site of John August, the writer/director of The Nines. He's giving day by day coverage of the writers' strike, cool blog.
Fancy seeing The Nines for free, ten days before it's official UK release? Well, I have a handful of tickets to give away for a preview screening. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post, or send me an email with the subject "The Nines". First come first serve, and you're allowed to request a pair if you have a plus-one to go with.
The details: the screening is in central London on the evening of Tuesday 20th November (with the promise of food and drinks!). That's next Tuesday. The film is a 15 Certificate (so you should at least look 15).
Here's the press release blurb:
"The Nines is the debut feature from John August (critically acclaimed writer of hit movie GO and adaptor of CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY for Tim Burton) and stars Ryan Reynolds (Smokin’ Aces) and Hope Davis (American Splendor). The Nines is a unique blend of science-fiction, mystery and thriller which finds the lives of three characters (all played by Reynolds) intersecting sometimes in bizarre and unexpected ways. "More importantly it was well received at Sundance, has an 8.4 on IMDB and Mark Kelly (Locus Online) recommends it. Sound good? Drop me a mail or leave a comment....
I have two copies of You Can Draw Star Wars to give away, courtesy of the very nice people at DK Books. One is signed by Matt Busch and Tom Hodges, the other by Matt Busch and Bonnie Barton.
To win all you have to do is leave a comment on this post telling me about your first memory of Star Wars, whether it was in 1977 watching A New Hope, or in 2005 with Revenge Of The Sith. I'll pick the two stories that I like the most and they win. Easy.
Conditions : (1) You have to add a valid email address in the comment, because I'll email you to tell you that you've won. (2) I'm only going to ship to the UK, sorry. (3) closing date is the 27th August.
