IT'S A SHAME THAT YOU ARE A BLOGGER WHO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OTHERS!

QUESTION: Do you think it is logic to 'SELL' your movie premiere screening ticket to somebody else considering that you are not intended of attending it? Do you know it is free stuffs that deemed unsuitable for such misdemeanor or because just want to earn that extra cash from such act? Can anyone imagined the person who bought the ticket from someone happened to realize that he/she is the only person who have to pay for the screening?

So, almost everyone got their premiere screening movie via contest or giveout on social media or newspaper, right? The whole reason about the existence of premiere screening is to allow the movie distributors to screen a movie to a handful of public audience beforehand; to allow words-of-mouth of a movie been spread after they have watched it. I can rest assured you no one have to pay a single cent for such screening because it is a marketing strategy by distributors to check on the level of anticipation and market potential based on the attendees' reactions. For those who does not know why we have tonnes of movie screening every week, this is indeed the reason.


Apparently there is this person trying to sell off her Hoodwinked Too premier screening (I assumed it's on next Monday or Tuesday) for RM10 a piece on Twitter via FongFeiKei. I'm kind of surprised because no one actually buy a movie screening ticket! Yes, some of you may have watched that movie in another premier screening few weeks ago so you might argue the validity of next week's screening.

For those who not aware, the movie distributor planned to release the movie back in the early of May. That explains the one screening that was held back at the end of April. One of our friend, Isaac Tan has watched it. Unfortunately enough because due to some problems, the release of the movie was delayed until its confirmation for release next week. To compensate, I believe that the distributor is doing another round of premiere screening and chances are that - you have won it recently from Nuffnang, right?
