The 50 contestants with the most points from each cinema will go on to the finals in Melbourne on October 24th.

Sound cool. If I was able to get to Melbourne for one I would enter!
Heh, 10 years later and I googled this event and there’s still remnants of it on the internet. Good blurb mate, I came 3rd in the event – got the gold class screening for 25 people at Village cinemas at Crown Casino. Saw Jet Li’s “Hero”.
