Contest: Win Tickets to See TOP GUN with L.A. Conservancy’s Last Remaining Seats!

by

latheaterLast Remaining Seats presents a contest straight outta 1986! Enter for a chance to win a pair of tickets to see TOP GUN June 4th at the beautiful Los Angeles Theater in Downtown LA!

Last Remaining Seats is the Los Angeles Conservancy’s annual program that combines classic film with L.A.’s historic theatres. Top Gun  is this year’s opening film. Visit the L.A. Conservancy’s website for the full schedule of screenings.

Top Gun was the highest-grossing film of 1986, due in part to the action-packed aerial scenes that were a huge hit with audiences. It earned both a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for Best Original Song, the unforgettable “Take My Breath Away” performed by Berlin. Top Gun was released thirty years ago in 1986. Not coincidentally, this is the thirtieth annual season of Last Remaining Seats!

Entering the contest is easy. Just fill out the form below to signup for Laemmle’s weekly email newsletter. The deadline to enter is 5PM on Thursday, June 2nd. Two winners will be selected and announced Friday morning at 11AM.  Already a newsletter subscriber? Go ahead and re-enter your email address (don’t worry, you won’t get extra email).

Prizes:
– Two VIP Tickets (reserved seating) to the 2pm screening of Top Gun (June 4)

OUR LAST TANGO is a story of love between the two most famous dancers in tango’s history. And the story of their tremendous love of tango. María Nieves Rego (81) and Juan Carlos Copes (84) met when they were 14 and 17, and they danced together for nearly fifty years.

Laemmle’s 2016 Predict the Oscars Contest Winners

by

Every year we award movie passes to our customers who most accurately predict the Oscars in all 24 categories and every year we stress the importance of the tie-breaker question. For the second year in a row there was a five-way tie! Yes, five people correctly predicted 19 out of 24 categories. Placement on our imaginary podium was then determined by how accurately they predicted the length of the Oscar ceremony (217 minutes). Best Picture, Supporting Actor, and Animated Short proved to be the most difficult categories to predict.

Fourth and fifth place will also receive a premiere card– it wouldn’t feel right to send them away empty-handed after coming so close!


Congratulations to the winners!

1st) Joel B. – $150 Premiere Card
2nd) Raymond W. – $100 Premiere Card
3rd) Dan K. – $50 Premiere Card
4th) Gideon L. – $40 Premiere Card
5th) Leslie L. – $25 Premiere Card
