Giveaway Tuesday: Iron Man: 2-Disc Special Collectors Edition DVDs!!!

By Great White Snark | September 23, 2008

Iron Man drops on DVD in exactly one week, and I have two copies of the Iron Man Two-Disc Special Collectors’ Edition to give away, courtesy of Paramount Home Entertainment.

Geeks, rejoice.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall also arrives on DVD next week, but as a rule I don’t give away movies that prominently feature penile parts.  That’s just one of the things you can count on here at GWS: enthusiastic, penis-free service.

So, anyway.  Back to the super-awesome movie about the dude in the robot suit…

To sign up to win one of two brand-new copies of the Iron Man: 2-Disc Special Collectors Edition DVD set:

  1. If you haven’t already, get an e-mail subscription to Great White Snark. It won’t cost you nuthin’.
  2. Leave a comment on this post. In the “Mail (will not be published)” field, enter the same e-mail address of your subscription, so I know who you are.
  3. In the comment, name your least favorite Iron Man nemesis.

I’ll select the winners at random and announce them in an update to this post next Tuesday, September 30th.

UPDATE: Kiera and deekaygee are the big winners, so the rest of you can start writhing in the pain of defeat. Oh, how it stings!

One entry per person. And remember, cheaters never prosper, because I’ve got your IP address, people: duplicate entries are dopey entries. Winners outside the forty-eight contiguous U.S. states pay shipping. Because this ain’t a money tree, it’s just a plain ol’ blog.

      Dammit. I drooled on my laptop.

      I guess winning the South Park DVD voids me from winning this, huh? If it doesn’t, I’m throwing my hat so far into the ring that I don’t even want it back again.

      I’m not sure who my *least* favorite Iron Man nemesis is, but I sure as hell wasn’t impressed with Jeff Bridges, I can tell you that.

      mmm… he’s not solely an ennemy of Iron Man, I guess, but I wanna say MODOK. That thing is just all sorts of ridiculous to me… ;)

      Whirlwind by far has to be the lamest and my least favorite of all Iron Man’s enemies. How he spins and makes tornados … how … menacing.

      I haven’t seen this film yet, so I’m not sure which enemies are presented, but I always thought ‘Bad Guy’ was pretty lame. Thanks for the awesome giveaway.

      I’m not a fan of about half of Iron Man’s villains (Mister Doll, Marvel? Really?), but I think the Unicorn takes the cake! He always struck me as a pansy.

      i want a shot at this one for sure

      GIMMIE GIMMIE GIMMIE!!!!

    8. Wavatar Joe J Says:
      September 23rd, 2008 at 8:48 am

      Sorry, I think Whirlwind is the lames villain by far.

      Ooh! Ooh! Me! Me! Save me the $30 please so I can go buy the new season of Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Damn DVD’s are expensive.

      Anyway, I am not *real* familiar with the whole Iron Man universe, but I thought Fin Fang Foom was a stupid and obvious attempt to demonize China. I don’t have a problem with comic books making a point about real life, but just do it in a less “a 6 year old read a picture book about China and made up a villan” way. Plus his name is just atrocious.

      I’d have to second Modok – so much creepiness and absolute silliness mixed into the same ridiculous thing does not a super villian make.

    11. Wavatar Liz Says:
      September 23rd, 2008 at 10:08 am

      Ooo, pick me! Although I’m not sure who my least favorite nemesis is I’m always amused by the fact that there were more than one FireBrand. You think you could pick a new name for the next guy with evil fire wielding power, but I guess not.

    12. Wavatar Mike Says:
      September 23rd, 2008 at 10:10 am

      Loved this movie! Looking forward to the DVD!

      My least favorite IM nemesis would have to be Fin Fang Foom. Hands down.

    13. Wavatar deekaygee Says:
      September 23rd, 2008 at 10:30 am

      my least favorite has gotta be from the old school – Titanium Man! go cold war era stereotype villains! also, he’s got to be better, because, you know, titanium is stronger than iron.

    14. Wavatar paul Says:
      September 23rd, 2008 at 10:51 am

      Now we’re talking.

      As one of the few people here who actually read the comic books and isn’t a poser just wanting free stuff, I obviously deserve at least one of these copies. :)

      I’d say that my least favorite Iron Man nemesis is Grey Gargoyle. He’s a dude that can turn people into statues and he’s FRENCH. That’s about the limits of his character.

      Oh yeah, and to the person who was offended for no reason by Fing Fang Foom… you are offended by Fing Fang Foom but not by the Mandarin?

    15. Wavatar Steve Says:
      September 23rd, 2008 at 10:55 am

      Least favourite nemesis has to be Man-Bull, a not at all believable minotaur-type creature made by an ordinary villain and experiment gone wrong

    16. Wavatar Nick Says:
      September 23rd, 2008 at 1:21 pm

      The price of shipping this to New Zealand would be more than worth it – I love The Iron Man!

    17. Wavatar Jess Says:
      September 23rd, 2008 at 2:16 pm

      Whirlwind just plain sucks. Really, really sucks.

    18. Wavatar Moises Says:
      September 23rd, 2008 at 2:45 pm

      My least favorite nemesis from the Iron man series has to be Unicorn, a soviet union soldier healed by Titanium man and given a cone shaped blaster. Since he only has a blaster on his head Iron man can stop with no problem.

      September 23rd, 2008 at 3:33 pm

      Fine! You got me! I’ll subscribe via email. I already subscribe via feedreader, but I want this movie BAD.

      My least favorite nemesis of Iron Man? Duh, alcohol. W00t! Tony loves the bottle and there really is nothing worse than that third FWI (flying while intoxicated).

    20. Wavatar Doreen Says:
      September 23rd, 2008 at 5:50 pm

      Hi, I just subscribed to your e-mails! :) Hmmmm my least favorite nemesis of Iron Man–I honestly don’t know! LOL I’m trying to win this for my Brother. :)

      Hi, This would make one heck of a Christmas gift for my teenage sons! Please enter me in your drawing. Many thanks, Cindi

      I have to say my least favorite Iron Man bad guy is a tie between Whiplash and the Crimson Dynamo. Ya know, most of his villains are pretty damn lame.

    23. Wavatar V Says:
      September 24th, 2008 at 11:23 am

      I am going to go with Justin Hammer, he’s an old man and even his offspring is bad – he names her Justine Hammer, how self centered can you get.

    24. Wavatar sabre Says:
      September 24th, 2008 at 2:09 pm

      Whiplash, Whirlwind, and Fing Fang Foom (what a cheesy name) are high on the list.

    25. Wavatar Mike Says:
      September 24th, 2008 at 2:21 pm

      Whirlwind without a doubt. But he doesn’t suck, he blows.

    26. Wavatar nickolai Says:
      September 24th, 2008 at 8:16 pm

      The Dude, for sure.

      I’ve never read Iron Man or seen the movie – which is why I neeed to win this!

    28. Wavatar AggieJoe Says:
      September 25th, 2008 at 9:59 am

      I would say that Godzilla would be my least favorite nemesis. I can’t believe that Marvel even made a comic series based on him.

    29. Wavatar The Hegemom Says:
      September 25th, 2008 at 3:28 pm

      Hm….least favorite. Besides Jeff Bridges? Justin Hammer. He’s a killer bureaucrat.

    30. Wavatar MP Says:
      September 25th, 2008 at 11:11 pm

      Griffin is really lame!

      I really, really, really want this awesome DVD. I hope I’ll be lucky enough to win one.
      As for Iron Man’s least favorite nemesis I choose Gargantus.
      Thanks!

      Fin Fang Foom, if just for the name alone.

    34. Wavatar Mariana S. Says:
      September 28th, 2008 at 11:17 am

      I definitely don’t like The Mandarin…

      Thanos, because he has the infinity gauntlet!! It just ain’t fair! :P

      Crimson Dynamo.

      September 29th, 2008 at 12:39 pm

      being a fan of free things, I figured I would enter – i will pick unicorn as my least favorite – never saw the show, or read the comics, but unicorn sounds pretty stupid to me!

    38. Wavatar Hannah Says:
      September 29th, 2008 at 2:18 pm

      Oooh, oooh, pick me! I didn’t get to see this movie when it was out, but I heard it wasn’t half-bad. I am a big fan of comics-turned-to-movies, but must confess that I’d never read the comics for this one, so I’m not even sure what bad guys go up against Iron Man. I’d love to find out by watching on a free copy of the new DVD, though! :-)

      September 29th, 2008 at 7:08 pm

      Hey I would love to have this!!!

    40. Wavatar Chris Says:
      September 29th, 2008 at 9:25 pm

      Oh, definitely Living Laser…fun, but oh my god, what a loser! I kind of have a love hate relationship with the guy. Good luck everyone!
