Contest: "The Heat" Prize Pack

The Heat opens in theaters everywhere on June 28th and 20th Century Fox is gifting 5 lucky TFE readers The Heat Prize Packs (US residents only this time. sorry) which include, a fan, a t-shirt, and a movie poster.

 

Various version of this poster have already stirred up some controversy for the weird slimming of Melissa McCarthy (um, people know what she looks like... and they like her like that!) so consider it a hot button keepsake. I'm seeing this Tuesday and excited because it seems like ideal counterprogramming in our global all boy all superhero summer crisis each year. Is it too much to hope for that it's as funny as Outrageous Fortune (1986) the female odd couple comedy that keeps coming to mind for me when I think of this one? (Though perhaps Miss Congeniality 2 is a better comparison)

How to enter after the jump

It's easy!

  1. Email Nathaniel with "The Heat" in the subject line before July 1st 11:59 PM EST
  2. Include your name and mailing address - that's it!
  3. BONUS ENTRIES: if you "recreate" this already infamous poster (or the image below) somehow -- whatever and however you'd like gif, vine, drawrings, photos or whatevs -- I'll give you 3 bonus entries and you'll win our communal admiration for your silly once I share them in gallery form.

Isn't this the Sandra Bullock from 1994 - 2004 the one she was eager to leave behind.

Mark -- In that case, big mistake because that's exactly what she does best.

From the look of the preview I saw it is much too much to hope for Outrageous Fortune level enjoyment. The trailer was incredibly bad.

This article is completely awesome for me and often the one activity is done of searching content for collecting wonderful knowledge.

The best part about froth bedding cushions is that they are reasonable when contrasted with the celebrated brand sleeping pads but then help you accomplish a similar outcome as a progressively costly bedding.
