Dark Knight Tickets ?

I am desperate ! The Dark Knight has been released in every place where I have a friend who is a Nolan/Bale/Batman fan and it doesn’t release in Dublin for another week. I am sick of hearing why this is the greatest movie of all time and how everybody is going gaga over Heath Ledger’s role as The Joker.

So here is the deal – The Dark Knight releases here on 25th July and is sold out for the weekend in every theater apparently. If you are a Dubliner, I have an extra pass to a special invite-only event, also on the 25th. In return I will accept a ticket for the movie and even pay for it in full. Deal ? Leave a comment with your email filled in – Its not visible publicly.

P.S: No harm in trying. I got a job in Google thanks in part to this lousy blog. Why not a movie ticket ? ;-)
