Welcome back to the New York Magazine Competition. On alternate Mondays, we lay out a challenge and offer a sample responses. Enter in the comments section, or on Twitter with the hashtag we’ve provided, and the editors will select a winner. Criteria are highly subjective, but heavily retweeted and favorited posts will have an advantage. The prize is a year’s subscription to New York in print or a two-year subscription to the iPad edition (winner’s choice). Full rules are here.
COMPETITION NO. 28: MOVIES WITH DESSERT. Please offer a title that might make filmgoers want a treat. For example:
Guardians of the Gingerbread
Hot Tub Vending Machine
Requiem for Ice Cream
The Dark Knight Reese’s
Enter on Twitter with the hashtag #moviewithdessert, or in the comments thread below, by August 20.
