Giveaway: X-Men Origins: Wolverine – Two-Disc Special Edition on DVD!

By Great White Snark | September 7, 2009

No, I’m not punishing you again. Yes, I realize that those of you who saw X-Men Origins: Wolverine in theaters might have felt like you spent $10.50 on a platter of rotten burger meat with a side of lame sauce.

Wolverine Origins DVD

But we all know the pleasures of watching otherwise-blah-some geek fare for free on our TV sets at home. Or perhaps you’ve never watched the PG-rated version of Starship Troopers on TBS at 2am on a Saturday. (And I say, good for you for having a life. Now stop rubbing it in our faces.)

The special edition’s full list of features includes featurettes, behind-the-scenes stuff, commentaries, and–most importantly–deleted and alternate scenes.

Right. Alternate scenes. The glimpse of a world where the Wolverine movie took a completely alternate form is alone worth the price of ownership, isn’t it? (By the way, remember how the price is “free?”)

To sign up to win a copy of X-Men Origins: Wolverine - Two-Disc Special Edition on DVD:

  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 In the “Mail (will not be published)” field, enter the same e-mail address of your subscription, so I know who you are.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, write a pick-up line custom-made for Logan to use in a bar.

I’ll select the winner* and announce them in an update to this post next Tuesday, September 15.

UPDATE: This was a tough call, as several of the entries were doused in a good bit of hilarity and cleverness, but the winner is Wee Granny with the Wolverine pick-up line, “Hi there. Need any hedges trimmed?” I love me a good euphemism.

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.

* Note that I’m no longer selecting winners at random. Now it’s merit and merit alone** that will win you some shiny, free swag.

** Shameless flattery of my looks, talent, or prowess will never hurt your chances.
