Win Your Hometown a Premiere of X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Win Your Hometown a Premiere of X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Hugh Jackman Announces a promotional contest that could snag your town a movie premiere, complete with Hugh and his cast members. An awesome idea to have a premiere outside of LA for once!

I'm all for this kind of contest. Hollywood and New York shouldn't be the only places that have big premieres.



What would be cool is if everybody at CBM voted for some place that never gets this kind of thing, say, Omaha Nebraska. Whaddayasay? Let's do it!

Go here and vote:

Enter Omaha, NE 68046. You know your podunk won't win it, but if we all vote for the same small town, we can at least keep it out of the big cities. They always win the good stuff, and they get tons of promotional freebies all the time. Let's give the eskimos their shot at a big time movie premiere! Vote Juneau!

Forget the Eskimos, enter American Fork, UT 84003 (the closest town with a decent theater) so I can see it! :o)

I say we do this! If we spread our votes out, there is no way the smaller towns could ever win this opportunity, and it will go to one of the major metropolitan cities. That's just the odds. But if we use the power of CBM and all vote for one place, we can give a present to some small town that would never see a big Hollywood movie come to town. Let's try it!

I'm voting Juneau AK 99801. And be sure to use that "send to a friend" feature after you vote and ask them to do the same thing.

We gotta all do it together or it won't work. If not Juneau, then someplace else, but we need to settle on a small town. PLEEAZE nothing in California. They get more than their fair share.

I talk to people all over the US for work and they're the RUDEST people in the lower 48 (never talked to anyone in Alaska or Hawaii). I'll vote for any place as long as California doesn't get it!

All those regional stereotypes are wrong. Southerners aren't dumb at all, and New Yorkers are gushingly grateful if you do good work. Californians will yell at you because they can't figure out that the text in a photo can't be retyped by clicking on it with their mouse and hitting the backspace key. They aren't just dumb, they're mean about it.

I choose NC 27606!

Is it too farfetched to have it go to an Aussie's hometown? - Being that it was filmed mostly in Australia and half the cast are Aussies. Shit, would Canada even be considered? - Wolverine is like their most famous export.

in these type of contests they always hand pick the towns anyway bet it goes somewhere in michigan because of the symbolic wolverine thing, and with GM being all in the news

What's wrong with Omaha, NE. I know it's not the most popular city in the world but it would be really awsome to have the premeire in Omaha. We have great Marvel fans here!!!
I vote for Bellevue (Omaha), NE 68123
