Flash Giveaway... Special Edition!!

full?d=1586894982.png

(April 14, 2020) Welcome to our "Special Edition" Flash Giveaway contest, designed to shower your home theater sensibilities with the feel goods and eradicate any Stay-At-Home Corona Virus Blues! Before we kick this off, I'd like to echo the sentiments expressed in our last Giveaway thread: we here at AV NIRVANA hope that all of our members are happy and healthy... and that goes for family and loved ones, too! Please check-in by entering this contest (and let us know you're all ok!).

Alright, let's uncork our latest contest. This particular Giveaway is unique because its being sponsored by one of our VIP Supporters and most active members, @phillihp23. Several weeks ago, he approached me with the generous offer of donating an unopened new-in-box copy of Sony's Spider-Man: Homecoming on 4K UHD Blu-ray... boxed and shipped by him to the winner. This kind of gesture embodies the values and community principles the founding partners of AV NIRVANA envisioned when the site was launched, and speak volumes about @phillihp23's quality and character. So, with a tip of the cap and a round of applause, I'd like to thank him for paying it forward, so to speak, and delivering some happiness to another member during one of the more bizarre and stressful times in recent memory.

Spider-Man Homecoming ranked #17 in our 2017 Blu-ray Gift Guide, where we noted: "Representing yet another Spiderman re-fresh, Homecoming benefits from a superb cast anchored by Tom Holland as a young Peter Parker. Toss in several fun villains and this film is a thrilling ride from start to finish. Home theater buffs will love the release’s incredible 2.39:1 cinemascope image and the 4K version’s Atmos audio encode is pure demo material. Spider-Man Homecoming is a must-own 2017 release!"

As you can tell, It's a stunner of a film, sporting Dolby Vision HDR and extreme levels of detail and sparkle. And the included Dolby Atmos encode (exclusive to the 4K release) is sure to guide your system down a road of sonic perfection, feeding it audio purity (including some delightful LFE).

At @phillihp23's request, this contest will be run like most others. If this isn't your first Flash Giveaway rodeo, then you know what to do. But, if you're a newb, here it goes: If you’re not a member, you’ll need to become one to enter the contest. Membership is 100% free… although you can certainly opt to support our site through various levels of Premium Memberships.

In order to enter the contest, just leave a comment below and you'll gain one entry into the contest. The official – random – drawing will be held on May 5, 2020 (Cinco de Mayo!).

As always, any member with 100 posts will have TWO automatic entries, while any member with 1,000 posts will receive THREE automatic entries! It’s our way of thanking those that have made AV NIRVANA their home! If you want better odds in this or future giveaway contests, get active on the forum!

Best of luck to everyone that enters... and many thanks to @phillihp23 for being such an amazing member of our community.

If you would like to become a valued supporter of our community, click here for more information. It helps us to keep the lights on and contests like this happening!

Here’s the fine print:

  1. All entrants must be AV NIRVANA members (100% free and easy to join, including Facebook login) and live within the Continental United States (Lower 48).
  2. All previous Giveaway winners are free to enter.
  3. The contest runs from April 14, 2020 through May 5, 2020 (9:00AM EST).
  4. One winner will be selected at random and announced in this thread.
  5. The contest winner will be required to share a name and address, which will be forwarded to member @phillihp23, who has offered to cover shipping costs for a new 4K Blu-ray copy of Spider-Man: Homecoming.
  6. Any member with 100 posts will have TWO automatic entries, while any member with 1,000 posts will receive THREE automatic entries!
  7. Winners will have 3 days to respond to the winner's notification. If AV NIRVANA does not receive a response, the drawing will be run again.
  8. Terms and conditions are subject to change without notice.

I'm back (no, no... wasn't putting makeup on... we have a 9 week old puppy in our home and he needed some tending to ;-)!

Alright, here's the list:
31431


Once again, hats off to @phillihp23 for stepping forward and offering this NIB disc for someone else to enjoy! Really cool. And, just to add, I decided to have a little fun on my Twitter feed this week and giveaway some digital movie codes. Just thought it would bring some smiles to folks during this insanely bizarre (stressful?) pandemic event. Parasite is up for grabs today. My twitter link is below.

Now... back to Spider-Man. The winner of this great flick is....

:fireworks1:BKEELER10:fireworks2:

CONGRATS!

I'll set up a PM to arrange shipping.

Thanks folks! And for those of you that are new, please hang around the forum! :T
