Free Fridays: Cannon Films' Cobra Edition!

Stallone looks SICK in aviator shades. This movie case makes the perfect decoration for any room of the house.

  

It's already Friday again? Sweet! Today we've got a doosy of a giveaway this week: Sly Stallone's 1986 police opus Cobra. But wait, there's more! On Wednesday we posted about our new movie night feature The Screening Room that we'll be launching next week, July 28, and embedded near the bottom were some new rules for Free Fridays. Since we want as many people to participate in next week's Cobra screening as possible we're giving away five copies of the movie. All you have to do to enter yourself to win one of those copies is to follow us on Twitter and retweet at least one of our stories to your friends. Don't be a spamasaurus and flood your mates' Twitter feeds, but the more times you retweet the better your chances of winning are.
 
Remember that this all ties into our new feature next Wednesday which we'd love to get as many people joining into as possible. Good luck and long live Sly Stallone and the Zombie Squad!

    A time travel story with no time travel, Sound of My Voice is intimate science fiction with only one concern: constructing a smart, incredibly acted puzzle for viewers to lose themselves in.

    Review
    Sacha Baron Cohen tries to recapture the glory of his prior foreigner-in-America culture comedy, but a lack of heart and diminishing returns on the successful gimmick turns this into a movie of decent jokes a decade too late.

    When sushi becomes art as much as it is food, the art of presenting it on film becomes transformative not only to the cuisine, but the people who make it.
