Here at MovieSet, we receive all sorts of DVDs to screen, review and/or give away as promotional prizes. We sure enjoy watching but there are enough to share. This is where you come in.
What can you say about a movie in 140 characters?
You are probably already using Twitter - the micro-update web tool which limits your notes to 140 characters or less. You are probably already following @MovieSet to find about the tastiest bits of news about films in production.
