All right, you amateur Oliver Stones, here’s your chance to shine. Midway and John Woo are teaming up to sponsor Strangehold’s True to John Woo Short Film Contest. “Stranglehold’s cinematic action is directly inspired by John Woo’s acclaimed action films and their unique style,” said Mona Hamilton, vice president of marketing, Midway Amusement Games, LLC.
What’s in it for you? How about a grand prize of $25,000, a trip for two to Midway’s Chicago studios to meet developers and tape an interview for Spike TV, the chance to personally premiere the short film on Spike TV, an authentic “Hard Boiled” movie poster autographed by John Woo, an Amp’d mobile phone with six months’ service, and a copy of Stranglehold.
Now, I know you’re thinking, “Man, I wish there was somewhere I could host my entries so people could see them.” Well relax, Junior, because we’ve got you covered. Just head over to the mothership and sign up for free.
The contest kicks off April 30th, and you can find more information on the contest here.
