Hey Capone again. The reation just in a first eight hours or so was borderline overwhelming, so I'm officially ending the contest. Thanks for entering, everyone. I think we're going to have fun!

Hey everyone. Capone in Chicago here.

So tomorrow I'm off to London to spend a little time with Daniel Craig and Marc Forster talking QUANTUM OF SOLACE, but before I hop on my plane, I wanted to offer up another screening opportunity for the folks in the Chicago area. I've got a fistful of passes to a screening of EAGLE EYE on Wednesday, September 24 at 7:00 pm in Chicago.

EAGLE EYE features the reteaming of Shia LaBeouf and his DISTURBIA director, D.J. Caruso. It also features the lovely Michelle Monaghan, the lovely Rosario Dawson, the lovely Billy Bob Thornton, and the scary Michael Chiklis. And we'll be seeing the film just a few days after its premiere at Fantastic Fest.

Just to be clear, I'm getting about 200 seats to fill--about half the theater. So this does mean that if you win, you MUST arrive early to make certain you get in. I'm anticipating a very full house. Since each pass is good for one person, you can actually enter this contest without a guest. If you want to bring a guest, you can only bring one.

Since I'm not sure how much time I'm going to have this week to really read over essay-length entries, I'm going to keep things simple. Here's how to win: send an email to me at capone@aintitcoolmail.com. The subject line should read "EYE SPY EAGLE EYE". In the body of your email, give me your first and last name, and tell me whether you are bringing a guest or not. This is really important, because I don't want to have any extra passes left over at the end of the night.

When I've gotten upwards of 300 entries, I'm closing the contest, giving each entry a number, and randomly selecting names until the passes are gone.

Keep an eye on the site early next week (probably Monday) for the list of winners, and I'll also send emails to all the winners with the screening location details. Good luck! And fellow Chicagoans should keep checking back, I'm going to have contests for roughly a screening per week for the next few weeks. Exciting times are ahead.
