Catch a (Free) Preview of 'Chasing Mavericks'

in

Chasing MavericksDon't you want to see Gerard Butler in a movie about legendary surfers, based on real life? Sure you do, especially when it's directed by Michael Apted and Curtis Hanson. The film Chasing Mavericks opens in Austin on October 26, but Slackerwood is giving you the chance to see it early and -- best of all -- for free.

We have a limited number of admit-two passes available to give away for a screening of Chasing Mavericks on Tuesday, October 23 at 7 pm at Galaxy Highland.

After the jump, you'll find promotional codes and links to the Gofobo website where you can enter the code to get an admit-two pass for the screening of your choice. These are first-come, first-served passes and seating is not guaranteed. If you've been to preview screenings, you know that often more tickets are given out than there are seats, so you'll want to arrive early to stake out a good spot in line.

Chasing Mavericks is based on a true story. Teenager Jay Moriarty (Jonny Weston) is an ambitious surfer who gets a legendary older surfer (Butler) to train him to surf the notorious Mavericks surf break, one of the biggest waves in the world. Elisabeth Shue and Abigail Spencer also star in the movie.

If you don't have a Gofobo account, you'll need to create one ... and many preview screenings in Austin now use Gofobo, so you can use the account for more free films in the future. After you sign up or log in, you'll get an admit-two pass that you should print and bring to the theater with you. Best of luck!
