Christmas Comp #8 - The Raid Blu-Ray & Poster - FINISHED
 

Hey everyone,

Today's Christmas competition is here! Up for grabs today is The Raid's Blu-ray and poster - one of the best action movies in a Very, VERY long time!

So, here's all those details...

“THE MOST EXCITING ACTION MOVIE OF THE YEAR.” (FIVE STARS) – EMPIRE.

Following their hugely impressive collaboration on the universally acclaimed martial arts extravaganza “Merantau Warrior”, Welsh-born writer-director Gareth Evans and Indonesian martial arts sensation Iko Uwais have reunited and increased the energy even more (if you can believe it) for “the most incredible action and fighting movie in decades” (IGN), the award winning action-thriller The Raid.

Already being hailed by Aint It Cool News as “one of the greatest action movies ever made”, as “spectacular… incredible… exhilarating… amazing” by Variety and as “a non-stop action bonanza” by Twitch Film, The Raid was the winner of the Midnight Madness People’s Choice Award at the prestigious Toronto International Film Festival in 2011 and the winner of both the coveted Audience Award for Best Film and the Dublin Film Critics Award for Best Film at the Dublin International Film Festival in February this year, marking the first time in history both awards have gone to the same film.

Deep in the heart of one of Jakarta’s most deprived slums stands an impenetrable high-rise apartment block. To most it is 30 floors of Hell to be avoided at all cost but for many of the city’s most dangerous killers and gangsters, including the area’s most notorious crime lord, it is a fortress-like safe house protecting them from the law. Even for the bravest and most experienced police officers it is considered a no-go area.

In a desperate bid to flush these violent criminals and their leader from their haven once and for all, an elite SWAT team is tasked with infiltrating the building and raiding the apartments floor by floor, taking out anyone who stands in their way. Cloaked under the cover of pre-dawn darkness, the SWAT members make their move and enter the block not realizing that this is the easier part of the mission. Once inside, it soon becomes terrifyingly apparent that the real problem at hand is surviving long enough to be able to get out again.

Featuring an electrifying kick-ass score by Linkin Park vocalist, keyboardist and rhythm guitarist Mike Shinoda, The Raid is a “hard-driving, butt-kicking, pulse-pounding, bone-crunching, skull-smashing, blood-curdling” (The Hollywood Reporter) action-thriller that reaffirms Gareth Evans’ reputation as a director to watch and further confirms Iko Uwais’ status as both an outstanding fight choreographer and as one of world’s most impressive new action movie stars.

Nice price, hope I win this one :)

Can I have a copy of the poster since I'm the original designer of it?
Pretty please!

This one is easy-peasy but I already have this film so I'll pass :D

Great prize, l loved this one at the cinema. Fingers crossed...

I've already won 2 copies of this excellent film so, for a second day, I will give someone else a chance :)

I'm probably going to sit this one out too, I don't own the film, I just don't have a ****ing clue what the answer is :lol:

seriously *shakes head* :lol:

I really need this BD! Loved the film.

A film popped into my head the second I saw it, but I don't think it has anything to do with Christmas, unless I'm mis-interpreting the picture and Christmas has bugger all to do with it :lol:
Sod it, I'll send my guess in anyway

Haven't seen The Raid yet, so this would be perfect!

I have no idea what the answer is WHAT HELL IS WRONG WITH ME :mmph:

Probably the most random question so far :lol:

It's easy once you consider the individual elements plonked into the christmas scene . . .

I'm missing something also. Didn't acre for The Raid though so i'll sit this one out.

Yeah I didn't acre for it either. A bit over hyped for sure, it's no Tom Yum Goong :tongue1: . . .

Yeah I didn't acre for it either. ;) A bit over hyped for sure, it's no Tom Yum Goong :tongue1: . . .

Yeah, that was such a good post I posted it twice! How the hell do you delete messages anyhoo :confused: . . .

Probably the toughest one ever :tongue1:

What? But there's a rabbit with blood round its mouth, some coconut shells, and a knight's sword! C'mon :doh: . . .

Don't forget the shallow

Ah! I worked it out. Well, if i'm gonna own a copy of this I might as well try and get it for free!:lol:

Haven't seen this one either but looks good, gotta enter!

Just sat and looked at this for about 10 minutes before I finally clicked on.. Hope I win! :D

I was feeling a bit thick headed for a minute but I think I got it.

Time's Up!

The correct answer for this competition was, of course...

Monty Python And The Holy Grail

Easy peasy!

Well done to all those who managed to get it correct :) Again, I've been inundated with entries (so apologies if I haven't replied). There can only be one and that randomly selected lucky winner is...

:first: Rik!

Congratulations these two awesome prizes are all yours.

A new competition will be up very shortly with a very creepy horror film up for grabs....

Kyle

Well done Rik :clap:

Well done RIK :clap:

I didnt wanna win anyway :lol:

Nice one, I wasn't sure if I was right at first, even though as soon as I saw the cocunuts and Killer Bunny, The Holy Grail popped into my head :)

Well done Rik :D I feel like putting The Raid on now but I'm supposed to be studying... far too many distractions...

Nice one Rik. Still really need to get this actually.

Congrats Rik!

Well done at first I couldn't get my brain into gear then I got it but I've already won earlier this year so didn't enter ... Decent prize as well,

Congrats Rik! :clap:
