Our good friends at Lionsgate have been kind enough to give us a copy of the Planet Hulk on DVD to giveaway to our readers.
We are going to do something a little different for this contest.
We are trying to build our on-line community over at Feature Forum. This is a place where all home theater enthusiasts can meet and talk about whatever’s on their mind.
To win a copy of Planet Hulk, this is what you have to do.
First you must register for an account at our Forum. It’s absolutely free. You can get there by following the Forum link at the top of our home page.
Once your account has been activated, all you have to do is participate.
At the end of Feb. I will pick, at random, a winner from all posts made from now until Feb 28th.
That means the more posts you make, the better your chances of winning.
Only posts that offer relevant conversation will be considered. Please do not post “I want to win” or anything of that nature. Those posts, and the person who made them will be disqualified. We are trying to build a community and this prize will be an incentive for you to try it out.
Good luck and enjoy our Forum.
Contest is open only to residents of The United States and Canada.

“And now for something totally different…”
I was fortunate enough to get the Fawlty Towers DVDs recently, but as the fates would have it, they were damaged by some careless mail handler. That means I won’t be able to give you a review on the set.
I can, however, guarantee you that it has to be a load of laughs. Cleese based the main character on a hotel manager the Monty Python Troupe had suffered some incredible experiences with over the years. Leave it to Cleese to whip up a big picture of sweet lemonade from the bitterest of lemons.
