This is just a reminder that we will be drawing a name on Sunday to give away a copy of the Criterion Collection edition of Fellini’s 8 1/2.  All you have to do is e-mail us at contest at screengeeks dot com and answer the following question:

What Joel Schumaker film opens with a scene heavily influenced by Fellini’s 8 1/2?

The contest will be open until 11:59pm MST on Saturday, May17th with the winner to be drawn on the 18th.

We don’t get an opportunity to give cool stuff away too often, but sometimes we just can’t resist.  In honor of our Film Snob episode about the Fellini classic, 8 1/2, we’re giving away a copy of the Criterion 2-disc edition to one lucky reader.  All you have to do is e-mail us at contest at screengeeks dot com and send us the answer to the following question along with your name:

What Schumaker film has a scene that is taken directly from 8 1/2?

We will be accepting entries until May 10th.  We’ll draw a name randomly from all correct entries and announce the name on next week’s episode of ScreenGeeks Radio.  Good luck!

I am pleased to announce that Jonja.net, ScreenGeeks.com and Starland.com are partnering in a contest for all Starfest attendees.  We are giving away a copy of the Collector’s two-disc edition of Joss Whedon’s classic, Serenity!  Not only that, but we’re also including an autograph ticket so you can get it (or whatever else you like) signed by The Hero of Canton, Jayne Cobb himself, Adam Baldwin!  All you have to do is answer one pretty simple question and e-mail your entry along with your name to contest at screengeeks dot com (you know what to do with that).  If you want to win, you need to come to Starfest since we’ll be drawing the name there.

We haven’t nailed down the exact when/where we will be drawing the winning name, so please include your cell number if you will be bringing a cell phone to Starfest, so we can contact you in the event that you aren’t there when we draw.  We will also be e-mailing all the entrants with the details as to the where’s and when’s as soon as we know.

Here’s the question.  What is the name of Jayne’s very favorite gun?

This contest will be open to entries until Saturday, April 19 at 12pm MST.  Any entries received after this deadline will be discarded.  Limit one entry per person.

Our apologies to all our listeners and friends who won’t be coming out to Starfest.  You should come out next year!  Don’t worry, we’ll be running a DVD giveaway contest in the next couple of weeks.
