Free Movie Tickets

Being the movie nerd that he is, my husband joined Skycable’s contest in twitter where he got to answer the question of who the newest Flash superhero is. Days before Sky will announce the winner, my husband was already anticipating winning 5 tickets for the advance screening of the new Justice League movie. He analyzed the odds of him winning the contest and the number of people who would have seen the tweet and answered it. Sure enough, he received Sky’s text message informing him that he won the contest last 13 November 2017. That is how positive he is, always looking at the good and bright side of things.

We invited his sister and a friend of mine to the movie. We went early so that we can find good seats but turned out only three rows were reserved to Sky winners. But still, we were able to get good second row seats in the cinema. Before the movie started, Sky had again another set of contests. One of which includes a question and answer portion about the characters in the movie. A lot were able to answer the very easy questions about the real names of the main casts of the movie. But when it came to the question about Jeremy Irons, no one went to the mic to answer so my husband who very well knew all the characters, main or not, was the only one who got the answer right. He went to the front and had his picture taken with the winner’s loot bag. 

Then the movie started. We all focused our attention to the big screen until the very end. The second franchise of the movie was in general a good one. There were many main superheroes but each were given equal roles where their characters were  well-introduced to the audience. The resurrection of Superman was the main highlight for me. He came out strong and confused hurting the other superheroes. But when the love of his life showed up, he was overwhelmed with love and came around in helping the group fight the villain. 

As soon as the movie ended we went home happy to be able to watch the advance screening for free. This was especially so for my big DC fan husband who hates spoilers. Thus, watching it in advance was such a big deal for him. I have never been a fan of comic book heroes. But my husband has been a great deal of an influence to me when it comes to movies. He knows all the history, facts and important details and shares these things to me. I am fascinated of how he is able to obsess on these things and get all nerdy and stuff. But as long as this interest of his is not a vice, I support him all the way.
