What a coincidence! My pet caterpillar, Leopold, and I were just asking ourselves, when are Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts going to be in another movie together, and all of a sudden here comes Larry Crowne, opening in theaters July 1.
I don’t want to spoil anything, but Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks meet cute, fall in love, get married, have a baby, and name him Larry Crowne.
You’ve probably already figured this out too, so I’m not spoiling anything by telling you that in this scene, Captain Sulu performs his rendition of King Lear as a humming musical comedy while Tom Hanks offers Sulu a tri-corder if he would just stop already.
OK, I’m kidding. I kid. I’m a kidder. You could get a better idea of what this movie is about if you watch this trailer.
Did I mention I’m giving away a $25 movie gift card AND a Larry Crowne movie T-shirt AND a Larry Crowne movie notebook? -woo hoo!
The prizes are courtesy of Universal Pictures, although I’m pretty sure Tom Hanks or Julia Roberts personally recommended me and Nanny Goats in Panties to host this event. And no doubt it’s because of the world-wide popular success of my new book: Sticky Readers: How to Attract a Loyal Blog Audience by Writing More Better. I believe the movie rights to my book will be optioned very soon. I’ve been camped near my phone for days now because I don’t want to miss THAT call.

It has been tweeted to the masses.
I hate movies and even I want to see this one on the big screen. Love me some Tom and I even like Julia Roberts.
I’ll be back after I tweet. Thanks for the chance to be a big winner. I wonder is Tom took the tee for spin first?

Don’t count me in your awesome giveaway because, (and don’t tell anyone this), my nephew works for our local movie theater and we see everything for free. Shhhh.
I can’t wait to see this. Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks back together again. I just read somewhere that Julia said all the scenes where she was drinking margaritas, she was really drinking margaritas. She said she had a constant buzz during the filming.
And I don’t think I’ve had the opportunity to tell you, congratulations, big time, on the book! I will be certainly checking out this book of yours because I know hilarity will ensue.

I’m very excited for this movie…. but sadly I didn’t tweet it. I’m just a little old fashioned. I did however tell the world all about my excitement via smoke signals. Does that count?
Here is a link to my tweet: https://twitter.com/#!/SmallTownMommy/status/83603198912368640
I notice in that last photo, Tom Hanks is reading something. Is it that fabulous new book I have been hearing about called Sticky Readers?
would love to win
love your blog…
suzi f.
Ooh prizes? Always fun. Larry Crowne is such an adult name I knew a baby could never have been named that…! 🙂
WOO hoo oh damn, I thought I aws the first to comment but then saw below. sneaky goats, very sneaky!!
A movie that has George Takei doing a rendition of King Lear “as a humming musical comedy” is worth a peek. I watched the trailer and it has Tom Hanks going back to school. I went back to school in my mid-thirties to get my B.A. in English. I didn’t meet Mr. Right, get married or have a baby, but it was the happiest years of my life. Gonna Tweet this now ..
If you do, or did tweet this, please enter another comment over here, so I can count it as an additional entry!
Looks like a great movie!

Actually did not know about this movie until now, learn something new everyday! 🙂
If I win will you come with me? We haven’t seen a movie together literally in years!
I will most definitely go with you! THAT’s not against the rules. And has it been years? How awful for us.
Looking at that picture I am thinking she is going to get bugs in her mouth. Count me in!

I’m actually excited for this movie to come out. Which is RARE for me, but Tom Hanks rarely disappoints. ;-D
I tweeted also 🙂

This movie looks like it would be pretty good and actually be funny too.
LOVE Tom Hanks and would LOVE to see this movie!!!
can’t wait to see this flick!
I don’t tweet but I posted on my FB. I want to see this movie fo sure. : )
I’m a HUGE Tom Hanks fan. And that has nothing to do with my size. I simply LOVE me some Tom Hanks. Oh, and Julia Roberts is kinda cute too. Just sayin’. Enter me, please! I cannot wait for this movie to come out!! 🙂
Believe it or not, I still read your blog even though I haven’t commented in ages.
Count me in! I love Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts!
That movie looks really good and I haven’t seen a movie in a while so I want to win!
Are there goats in this movie? Because if so, I’m so there!
I noticed they are wearing helmets in the preview, but not on the poster. Hmmm…
The publicist says I can’t enter because:
A. goats can’t go to the movies
B. there are no movie theatres here anyway
C. I would have to take Abby and she doesn’t let Abby out in public for the obvious reasons
But thank you for having the contest.
As God as is my witness, Pricilla, someday..someday, goats will be able to go to the movies. We will build a theater, just for goats, if we have to.
It is good to know, frankly, that someone gives a damn.
I will think about it tomorrow…for tomorrow IS another day!
Woo hoo, I’ve actually been waiting for this to come out because I think it will end up being freaking hilarious. Here’s hoping I get picked and thanks for the opportunity! 🙂
I just tweeted it, too. Because *that* is how much I want to win. Woot!
WOOHOO! Am I the first commenter? It’s like I’ve won already! Except I haven’t. Won, that is. Already, or yet, anyhow.
Thanks for the chance to win - I really want to see this movie, but movie $$ isn’t exactly in the budget right now.
xoxo
