Contest! Hamlet 2 Giveaway
Hamlet 2, which premiered at - and was the comedy smash of - the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, stars Steve Coogan as a failed actor-turned worse-high-school-drama teacher who rallies his Tucson, AZ students as he conceives and stages a politically incorrect musical sequel to Shakespeare's Hamlet. The irreverent film's fine cast also includes Catherine Keener, Amy Poehler, David Arquette and Elisabeth Shue as herself. The director is Andrew Fleming ("Dick," "Threesome"), who wrote the original screenplay with Pam Brady ("South Park," "Team America"). It opens theatrically August 22 [view trailer] and while we wait for that, why not join in a fab new contest thanks to Focus Features and Greencine.
One (1) Grand Prize Winner will receive: a Sexy Jesus Doll and a Sexy Jesus Surfer Shirt; Five (5) First Prize Winners receive a Hamlet 2 Movie Poster and Bumper Stickers ("Rock Me Sexy Jesus" or "Honk if You Love Sexy Jesus"). 
To enter, email contest@greencine.com and include your name, email address and, if you're a GreenCine member, your username in the email, and "Hamlet 2" in the subject header. Entries without all this information will not be considered. (You will not be added to a mailing list!). 5 winners will be selected at random from all valid entries. The deadline is August 22. Winners will be notified by e-mail and announced in future editions of the GreenCine Dispatch newsletter
