I am starting to get weary of all of the Wedding Crashers contests, offers, etc. being peddled on the Internet. There are just too many to keep up with. But this one bugs me. I don't know if New Line Cinema is actually sponsoring this or have just agreed to be a partner, but this is lame. My advice to you about this type of offer? Don't do it. It's similar to the Free iPod scheme. Notice I didn't say "scam"--I realize people are actually receiving prizes, but it's not until after they've fulfilled one or more offers like signing up with Blockbuster or whatever. And then you have to recruit others to do the same. And then your email address is whored out to every list buyer in existence. Something smells like pyramid around here. But I can't believe they're using movie tickets as bait. Read the terms and conditions before you sign up for any of these offers.
This has been a public service announcement. :)

Posted at: July 7, 2005 1:32 PMthanks for the heads up...that sounds pretty dumb. i'll buy my own tickets to support the movie! gosh, that's an idea :)
Posted at: July 7, 2005 1:45 PMI can honestly say that I too have never seen so many inticements with a movie logo on them? I do find it a little hard to believe that New Line is behind all of this? But, I gues they have to have some say so to use the images??? huh????
Posted at: July 7, 2005 2:26 PMAlthough this is probably a scheme, I kinda think it might be legit only because the movie industry has really been hurting lately. Nobody wants to go to the movies, they'd rather wait till the DVD comes out. And I'm sorry to say, I'm one of them. With the exception of Double V movies, of course. It's too damned expensive and I'm an actor! I can write it off!! They are probably doing all these contests so people will go, see it for free, love it, tell their friends, and see it again but pay for it this time. They are trying all these tactics to get the box office booming again. I say: Lower the addmission and they will come! But ya'll are going pay to see MY movies, right?? =D
Posted at: July 7, 2005 2:55 PMhey guys, if you want legit contests that are just contests you should look at the Guitar Center one for Wedding Crashers...my friend has actually won one of their contests and said he didn't have to jump through any hoops. just thought i'd put it out there
