Rant

I’ve had several drafts of wordy Scott Pilgrim vs. The World reviews saved, but each one ends up being angrier than the last. Why am I angry? Because this is the type of movie that Hollywood should be making for my generation, but it’s currently drowning at the box office and as a result and we’ll probably end up with more Transformers, GI Joe, and Monopoly movies instead.

I heard it best described as “An Epic for the Nintendo Generation,” and that’s about right. If you haven’t seen this movie yet, quit what you’re doing right now and go to the theater. Don’t wait for it to hit DVD/Blu-ray, don’t illegally download it, go see it. It is brilliant in every way, and chances are, if you read this site much, you’ll love it.

Do you think you’re a TMNT Mega-Fan? Do you have proof on photo or video? Do you like soap? If you answered “yes” to any of those questions, this contest is for you! Saturday Morning Central has teamed up with Lesley of GEEKSOAP to giveaway the first set of her TMNT Guest Soap.

The Rules

All you have to do to win is submit a photo or video showing that you are a TMNT Mega-Fan. It could be like the one of me above, sporting my new TMNT shirt on the first day of school when I was younger. It could be of your office now covered in TMNT memorabilia, or a photo of you in a homemade Shredder costume. It’s up to you. My panel of judges will decide who gets the soap based on the submissions, and the winner will be posted here.

You have until 10am EST on Saturday, July 3rd to get your entry in.

That’s not much time, so get out your old photo albums, warm up your video camera, and get to work. When you’ve got something ready, leave a link to it in a comment on this post. That way, everyone can see what is being entered, and we can all be equally embarrassed.

The contest is open to anyone in the United States. Good luck!

Update – Congrats to Calvin for winning the first set of TMNT Geeksoap!

You’ve probably seen the awesome game cartridge soaps from Geeksoap, a great new company in my hometown of Indianapolis. Just when I thought their products couldn’t get any cooler than these awesome designs, they tease us with images of their upcoming TMNT guest soaps.

If I’m ever a guest at your house, I expect these in the bathroom or else I’m not showering.
