The kind folks at Warner Bros. have kindly provided a Jack the Giant Slayer Combo Pack (Blu-ray + DVD + Ultraviolet) for DVDTalk to award to one lucky person. They've also released a cool Jack The Giant Slayer Blog App.
You have the power! Control the moving GIFs and power the action in the movie with a swipe of your mouse! The Giant Soundboard lets you compose your own mashup of sounds from Jack The Giant Slayer, which your kids will enjoy for hours! Test your bravery and take the How Brave Are You? QUIZ to see if you are as brave as our hero Jack.
Unleashed on the Earth for the first time in centuries, the giants strive to reclaim the land they once lost, forcing Jack (Nicholas Hoult), into the battle of this life to stop them. Fighting for a kingdom and its people, and the love of a brave princess, he comes face to face with the unstoppable warriors he thought only existed in legend... and gets the chance to become a legend himself! Directed by Brian Singer (X-Men, Superman Returns).
To Enter: I've always liked those 'person below me' games so that's what we'll do here. Just post if the statement above your post is accurate and then make a prediction about the person who posts below you. The winner will be chosen at random.
The Rules:
And now to start us off:
The next person who posts will have seen at least two movies in a theater so far this summer.
