Santhanan Venkatasen and Oon Lee Choo Linda who are the first and second runner-up winners took home a Top Gun* movie pass valid for a year and a screening in the Beanie hall at their convenience respectively.

“The All-Year Access* and Top Gun* pass, which was purposely developed for the winners are exclusive and not for sale to the public. Winners of these cards are entitled to two free tickets daily to enjoy any movie of their choice at TGV Cinemas Gurney Paragon,” said Ms Celeste Koay, Senior Marketing Manager of TGV Cinemas.

The Challenge required the movie buffs to spend a minimum of RM30 in the mall and purchase a movie ticket at TGV Gurney Paragon. They then received an entry form together with a ‘What’s my Prize?’ scratch card for an instant win prize. The top 15 completed entry forms with a creative slogan were then shortlisted to take part in the Ultimate Movie Buff Game Show.

Koay shared that the objective of the Challenge was to celebrate and thank movie lovers in Penang for their support since the Mall’s opening in April. “This is an opportunity for us to reward movie-lovers and loyal patrons of TGV Cinemas Gurney Paragon for their support and patronage and for helping us make the ‘Largest Gathering of People Dressed as Spiderman’ a huge success,” said Koay.

Koay went on to say that based on the support TGV Cinemas in Penang have been receiving, it is evident that Penangites are indeed movie-lovers and watching a movie in the cinema is no longer a special treat. “It is now part of our every-day culture to enjoy our favourite movies in all its cinematic glory in the cinema, especially on IMAX which presents an indescribable immersive movie experience,” added Koay.

“It is exciting that TGV Cinemas chose Gurney Paragon Mall as the first mall to kick-off the ‘Ultimate Movie Buff’ challenge. Congratulations to all the winners and a special thank you to the patrons of the Mall for making Gurney Paragon Mall their favourite Mall. It has been a great year and we are looking forward to more activities such as this to reward our shoppers,” said Ms Lily Tan Siew Feng, Executive Director of Hunza Properties Berhad,

Patrons of the Mall who were present to watch the game show also had an opportunity to test their movie knowledge and take home movie passes courtesy of TGV Cinemas.
