Flash Contest: Pre-Release Passes for “The Five Year Engagement” (Updated)
April 18, 2012
Update (1PM 4/19)
: The contest is closed, thanks for your interesting Women In Focus questions!
The winners are posted below; make sure to stop by the 3rd floor reception desk to pick up your pass before 5PM
!
We have another set of passes to check out a big-budget film before it hits theaters!
Last month, we had
a quick contest set up via Twitter to release passes to view Wanderlust
, and given how popular it was, we’re going to keep the momentum going for those of you tuned into our social media channels, this month with
The Five Year Engagement
.
About the film:
The director and writer/star of
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
reteam for the irreverent comedy
The Five-Year Engagement
. Beginning where most romantic comedies end, the new film from director
Nicholas Stoller
, the producer
Judd Apatow
(
Knocked Up
,
The 40-Year-Old Virgin
) and Rodney Rothman (
Get Him to the Greek
) looks at what happens when an engaged couple,
Jason Segel
and
Emily Blunt
, keeps getting tripped up on the long walk down the aisle.
And, excitingly, the producer’s (Judd Apatow) last film was the side-splittingly funny
Bridesmaids
– one of 2009’s breakout romantic comedy / female “buddy” films. Personally, I was floored at the spot-on, sidesplitting takedown of premarital bliss.
How to see The Five-Year Engagement for free:
It’s simple:
- Check out the lineup for our Women In Focus event this Friday (Make sure to register if you haven’t yet!)
- Think of a question you’d like to ask one of the talented panelists, about their films, career, or advice for students.
- Share the question with us:
- HERE in the comments section of the blog (make sure to login using Facebook or another service so we can see your name), specifying which panelist your question is for (or “For all the panelists” if it’s more general)
- OR via Twitter (“#WIF2012 Question for [Panelist name] [Your question] @CU_DodgeCollege”). Longer questions can be split into multiple Tweets if you can’t fit in 140 characters (or use a service like twitlonger). Like this:
#WIF2012 Question for Leslie Dixon: How closely did you work with original members of “Hairspray” on your 2007 version? @CU_DodgeCollege

That’s it!
The first 8 students (Chapman students only!) who share an interesting question with us will be selected as the contest winners.

- The theater suggests arriving up to an hour early – all seats are filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Just like any theater, if you want to sit with your friend, make sure to show up as early as possible!
All interesting questions for
Women In Focus
will be asked during the Q&A period, as time allows; even if you can’t make it to the event, you can follow the discussion through
Twitter
, as we’ll be live-tweeting the event under the
#WIF2012
hashtag, and highlights and quotes will be available next week right here on the blog, as well.
During this end of the year crunch, we hope you enjoy relaxing with this hilarious film!
