Consider yourself a bit of a movie buff?
Well, you’re in luck because Moyra and Big Trev have teamed up with Event Cinemas for their game Pick the Flicks to get the Tix!
Each Monday afternoon, Moyra and Big Trev will play two seconds of audio from a movie, which could be any movie, from any time! They’ll then open the phone lines for Gold Coasters to guess which movie it’s from.
If you guess correctly after two seconds, you’ll score yourself ten tickets to go and see a flick at Event Cinemas! Need more time? No problem, but the more time you need the fewer tickets you win.
