Apr 29

How excited are you about the upcoming Star Trek movie? I know a bunch of us here at IZEA surely are (hey…we’re a technology company and we’re geeks)! May 8th can’t come soon enough – “Beam us up, Scotty!”

We have an awesome announcement for you guys. Drum roll please…. One of our SocialSpark Advertisers, Fandango, has provided us with 10–yes 10–coupon codes worth $20.00 in value to give away to our awesome Community, so that way you guys can check out the opening of Star Trek in your area! Amazing, right?

Not only is Fandango unbelievably generous when it comes to giving away these coupon codes they are also running two (2) CPC campaigns in SocialSpark right now. These campaigns are already extremely successful and if you want to participate please feel free to check them out here and here.

Now, you’re probably wondering how you can get these tickets aren’t you? It’s pretty simple, just leave a comment on this post about one of two things: 1) take a picture of yourself doing the famous Vulcan salute and link to it in the comments of the post or, 2) you can leave a comment on the post telling us who your favorite Star Trek character is. See, like I said, simple.

Of all the comments left, 10 will be chosen at random to win a coupon code and will be able to go check out this awesome movie. We’ll be ending the contest on May 10th, 2009 at 11:59pm, so make sure to those comments in as soon as possible! For complete contest rules please go here.

    Captain Kirk was always my favorite character from the original series, brash, bold and defiant. Why end the contest 2 days after movie is released, most die hard fans will see the movie opening day, free tickets worth more if for opening day.

    By far the best Star Trek character is Captain Picard! Need further proof? Google Image Search faceplam… I can’t tell you how accurately he expresses this emotion that I feel everyday of my life.

    My favorite is without a question Data. The constant thirst for knowledge as well as his dry attempts at humor. What’s not to love?

    Can my favorite character be “every person on the Enterprise who’s not Deanna Troi”?

    Jean-Luc Picard is my favorite from TNG, but James Kirk is my favorite old school character.

    Bar none, Spock is the best.
    Can’t wait to go see it.
    Hopefully it is not an Epic Fail.

    Scotty is my favorite from the original Star Trek, but my all-time favorite is Picard. I love him!

    I’m really looking forward to this movie!

    I remember watching the first Star Trek: The Next Generation and I really liked the character of Wesley Crusher and I also like that Wil Wheaton is a bona fide geek.

    Gotta be stock, traditionally, and I’m thinking the new movie will cement that.

    Hands down, the most enigmatic and interesting character is Spock.

    How is it that no one has said Bones??? Dr. McCoy “I’m a doctor not a engineer” is the best!!

    Although some people find him annoying, I love every episode that Q is in. Q always means wacky shenanigans!

    If I have to choose, it’s Data 4TW! He is, after all, “fully functional.”

    Spock has always been my favorite character :) looking forward to the movie definitely, especially to see how “Sylar” plays him.

    Noone beats Scotty. If it weren’t for him, noone on the Enterprise would know what to do with the ship.
