Hi, everyone. "Moriarty" here with some Rumblings From The Lab...

If you have already entered this contest, please RESEND YOUR ENTRIES to this new address. I apologize, but if you don't, I will be unable to consider you for the contest. New deadline, too... you can enter until 12:00 noon, PST, on Sunday the 24th. Thanks!! See you guys there!!

Okay, maybe it won’t just be you and Tom Cruise, but it does promise to be an intimate event, and a chance to take part in a Q&A with him. Dreamworks has been good enough to provide us with 25 tickets to give away to this event, A CONVERSATION WITH TOM CRUISE. That’s not 25 pairs of tickets... it’s just 25 individual seats. It takes place Monday night, October 25th, at Royce Hall on the UCLA Campus, and starts at 8:00. Chris Connelly will be the moderator. I’m not sure what to expect, but I’ll definitely be there, and I hope 25 of you will be, too.

So what do you have to do to win? Well, you need to send me 500 words or less about what your favorite Tom Cruise performance is. It can be in a great film or a lame one... all I’m asking about is the performance. Creativity counts here, and the 25 winning entries will have their names added to the “Will Call” list, and will be notified on Sunday. That means you have until 12:00 noon, PST, on Saturday the 23rd, to submit your entry. Make sure the header reads “Tom Cruise Contest.”

In advance, we’d like to thank the AFI and Dreamworks for sponsoring the event, and I look forward to your entries.
