Movie Fans Can Be Winners Too
During Awards Season with
WINNING MOVIE MOMENTS Contest
“I’m gonna make him an offer he can’t refuse,” said Don Corleone in the classic 1972 film “The Godfather.” Now, national on demand distributor iN DEMAND, in support of the cable industry’s Movies On Demand® campaign currently in the marketplace, is giving movie fans an offer they won’t want to refuse – several ways to win during Awards Season without having to star in a nominated film!
Beginning today, movie fans have a unique way to participate in Awards Season via a contest giving them starring roles. The WINNING MOVIE MOMENTS contest invites participants to recite some of the world’s most memorable movie lines from 10 award-winning films, including Casablanca (“Here’s looking at you, kid.”); Gone with the Wind (“As God is my witness, I’ll never be hungry again.”); Silence of the Lambs (“A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.”); There Will Be Blood (“I drink your milkshake! I drink it up!”), along with six other movie classics. The motivation? The winner will be the proud owner of a brand new 55” HD-3D TV.
Those who are a little camera shy still have other ways to get in on the action:
“List It!” – an awards-themed version of the Movies on Demand® on Cable app* now gives users a chance to rank past award-winners in major categories and win daily prizes redeemable toward Movies on Demand® on Cable movie titles.
