Oscar Movie Marathon!

Update (02/06/08): This is our post from 2007. If you’re looking for AMC’s 2008 Oscar movie marathon, check out this post. It’s now called the Best Picture Showcase, by the way.

If you want to see all the Best Picture nominees but haven’t gotten around to it, AMC Theatres across the country are hosting a Best Picture Showcase the day before the awards. For $30, you can watch all five movies in a row and spend the entire day in the cinema. Plus they throw in a large drink and a large popcorn, with free refills all day. (Sounds like heaven!)

It’s a cool idea and I’m surprised no one has done it before. Even though I’ve already seen three of the movies, I am tempted to hunker down on the 24th for an Oscar Movie Marathon.

Here is the official site for AMC’s Best Picture Showcase on Saturday, February 24.
