Movies and Blog Stuff

by Erica on July 16, 2010

When I was on my way home from the Evo Conference, at the airport, I ran into this really nice lady that was on her way to Austin from New York.  We got to talking and she was going to a movie screening that day, and invited me to go along!  I was really excited, but when I got home and losing about 6 hours of my day, I realized I was way more exhausted than excited, so I passed out instead of going to the movie.  I was sad I missed out.

Later I wrote an email thanking the kind lady for the invite, but would love to keep in contact.  A few days later, I got an email asking for my address because she was going to send me a special viewing kit for the TV airing of the movie I missed out on.  Now THAT boosted my excitement once again!

I waited, and finally, probably after days of sitting on my porch, I realized I had my package!  Now this is where you come in!  Tonight there is going to be the airing of The Jensen Project on NBC at 8/7 CST!

It would be my honor to watch it with you (except I’ll be there with you in spirit!)  I’ll be taking notes, and will offer up my review of it if you miss it.  The movie is sponsored by P&G and Wal-Mart to bring back family movie night.  Family movie night is something we’ve been needing in our family.  We try to watch movies together, but a lot of time, we just get distracted, and never finish.

What about you?  Do you have family movie night, or like me, do you find yourself needing an arranged movie night with no excuses?

Since I want to mix things up, I want to offer you a chance to make your own blog post, and tell the world about your family movie night, or lack there of.  If you write a blog post, you get a chance at winning the movie “The Jensen Project” and the full movie soundtrack! I hear it’s really awesome with work from the likes of Randy Jackson, you know, the American Idol judge.

Get creative, make a video, or whatever you’d like.  Short and simple works great, so don’t stress about it, plus it will help the judging.  I have an objective third party judge who will pick the best post.  All you have to do is post the link to your blog post in the comments section so you can be found, and officially be entered in the contest.

This is NOT a random drawing, and a chance for you to win a great prize and start a family movie night in your household.  Edit: All submissions must be received by Saturday 17, 2010 at 12am CST.  Winner will be announced on Monday 12pm CST.

Get to posting, and can’t wait to read your posts!  I am also going to create a movie section in the groups section so we can talk about movie stuff there too!
