Giveaway: Slumdog Millionaire DVD!
By Great White Snark | April 6, 2009
What? What’s that? You don’t think Slumdog Millionaire qualifies as a “geek” movie?
Then maybe you missed the part where an awkward, skinny kid grows up to become a millionaire and land a devastatingly-hot girl with only his smarts and personality.
It’s the geek fantasy, except with fewer humiliated high school jocks and more dancing Indians.
To sign up to win a copy of the Slumdog Millionaire DVD:
- If you haven’t already, get an e-mail subscription to Great White Snark. It won’t cost you nuthin’.
- 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 In the “Mail (will not be published)” field, enter the same e-mail address of your subscription, so I know who you are.
- In the comment, name a geeky movie whose cast you’d like to see do a Bollywood-style dance routine.
I’ll select the winner at random and announce them in an update to this post next Tuesday, April 14.
UPDATE: Liana takes it. Jai ho, or whatever! You snooze–or ignore emails–you lose, Liana! Please meet the new winner: Doug!
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.

I’m going to say Serenity, though that almost seems too easy. I can imagine it now…

The Matrix – Bollywood would be about the best thing since sliced cheese.
April 7th, 2009 at 7:08 am
The Dark Knight!
April 7th, 2009 at 7:09 am
The cast of the original Star Wars (which is officially number 4 but only if you don’t count the endless cartoons and happy meals and such as episodes).
That or Princess Bride. I’d take either one.
April 7th, 2009 at 7:14 am
Ohhh, I totally want to see the Serenity cast do this now!
I’ll pick LOTR, just for the lol-factor of seeing Gandalf involved in a dance number.

You sit there, look at me in the eye, and tell me you can’t see the whole cast of KRULL having a big dance number at the end. With the Beast center stage. Go ahead, I dare you.
Yeah, I didn’t think so.
And whaddaya mean, you haven’t seen KRULL?!

I am going to have to say the original Star Wars cast. Having Chewbacca, Princess Lea, Hans Solo, and Luke doing the geeky dance would be great.
April 7th, 2009 at 8:05 am
I’d like to see Star Wars–especially the bar room scene done in Bollywood—-Judie
April 7th, 2009 at 8:55 am
How about the cast from The 40 Year Old Virgin? Instead of the out from nowhere Aquarius song they could have just as easily pulled off a Bollywood song and dance.
April 7th, 2009 at 9:05 am
I think Stand by Me would be funny – can you imagine kiddie O’Connel and Wil Wheaton, et al.
April 7th, 2009 at 9:56 am
The Prestige. I have christian bale on the mind, and I bet the Transported Man trick would add a mind-blowing dimension to Bollywood dance.
April 7th, 2009 at 11:32 am
Harry Potter, Princess Bride and any Star Trek movie cast all would be great!
April 7th, 2009 at 2:42 pm
Hell Boy for shnizzle.
April 7th, 2009 at 5:49 pm
I wouldn’t mind seeing the cast from Goonies go Bollywood, and not the movie cast so this one doesn’t count, but I’d LOVE to see Buffy and the Scoobies get their Bollywood funk on.
April 7th, 2009 at 6:36 pm
The cast of Cannibal Holocaust – natives and documentarians
April 7th, 2009 at 7:03 pm
I would like to put forth the idea of the cast of Serenity doing a Bollywood dance at the end. I feel like seeing Simon Tam dancing would be the best thing ever.
April 7th, 2009 at 8:36 pm
I love you ridiculous, wonderful, ridiculous people.
April 7th, 2009 at 10:50 pm
I love these comments and the IMAGES becoming embedded in my brain. In a good way.
The first thing I saw when I thought of a Bollywood cast was Captain Jack and the rest of the Torchwood cast. You know, before they killed everyone. Perhaps a few Weevils thrown in for good measure.
April 8th, 2009 at 2:30 pm
Oh how about the Fantastic Four :)
April 8th, 2009 at 6:29 pm
seven samurai !
April 9th, 2009 at 5:31 pm
I can’t believe nobody said the cast of Willow.
Willow, the Sprites, and Madmartigan. Heck Yes. Top it off with Burglekutt being crapped on by a bird at the end, and you’ve got yourself a classic.
April 12th, 2009 at 11:28 am
Oh boy, 12 Monkeys! That would bring laughter into my life :)
April 19th, 2009 at 12:16 pm
Liana = winner-person.
May 10th, 2009 at 8:18 pm
Correction! Doug is the winner!
