The British summer suddenly seems a way off. With recent storms battering the nation, maybe it’s time to settle down at home and watch a movie or two? Of course, that’s an altogether more enjoyable experience if you’ve got some bleeding-edge kit to do it on - like the Sony Blu-Ray starter pack that’s hitting stores soon. Just as well, then, that we’re offering you the chance to win just that.

We’re giving one lucky Electricpig reader the chance to win a Sony BDP-S185 Blu-Ray player and a raft of top Blu-Ray titles including: Spider-Man 3, 2012, Battle LA, Hop, This Is It, The Adjustment Bureau, Green Zone and Twilight: New Moon.

Netflix lands on the Sony Entertainment Network

The Sony BDP-S185 is a real beauty and comes stuffed to the rafters with high-end tech: it upscales standard DVDs to near 1080p HD quality and also boasts internet capabilities with access to the Sony Entertainment Network.

    I deserve to win the Sony Blu-Ray bundle because when it’s ‘Twilight: New Moon’ and I’m climbing the walls like ‘Spider-Man 3′. I get into the ‘Green Zone’ and ‘Hop’ into action. I feel like I could  ‘Battle LA’. I think to myself, ‘This Is It’ it’s ’2012′ and I’d feel like I was part of ‘The Adjustment Bureau’ if I got a message from Electric Pig to say that I’d won the blue ray player ;-)

    I deserve to win the Song Blu-Ray bundle because I want to surprise my wonderful new husband.   I’m just your standard clumsy person, falls
    occasionally but on the whole tries to be very careful with myself. 
    After a year of no falls or minor injuries along comes the 18th of May -
    my wedding day.  All went swimmingly, married the love of my life, had
    the speeches, posh grub, even the first dance.  However during the
    second dance guess who slips on the dancefloor damaging cartilage in my
    knee resulting in a trip to A&E and missing my own wedding
    reception. 
    All with new husband in tow.  Ah yes I wholeheartedly enjoyed my trip
    in a wheelchair, I loved being in the children’s section where someone
    had written “dobber” in the forehead of cartoon Homer Simpson, being
    X-rayed – well that was just the best, and not to mention the two choice
    characters in the next cubicle who spoke about skiboots and argued over
    whether it was SpongeBOB or SpongeBERT.  I’ve been on bedrest ever
    since, we even missed our honeymoon.  It was certainly a good test of
    “in sickness and in health” (luckily he passed!)  So you see this prize would go some way to me saying that I’m so sorry that idiot me ruined things, thanks for bringing me spontanious Dairylea Dunkers (the good ones) and just thanks for being you.

    I deserve to win the Sony Blu-Ray bundle because……I’m too damn soft and have ‘donated’ mine to my son! It was only a temporary loan but the bugger won’t give it back, leaving me with nothing but 500+ channels of Sky rubbish to plough through in my time off!

    I deserve to win the Sony Blu-Ray bundle because I can’t watch sport or the Jubilee as both cause an allergic reaction & bring me out in hives! I don’t have a Blueray player and the DVD player was rather spectacularly trashed as the cat went after a Daddy Long Legs who rather rudely invade his territory. Dreadful noise it was as the DVD player sped gracelessly across the wooden floor hitting the wall on the other side of the room. I also have two teenagers that never stop moaning unless: They are eating, asleep or watching a movie! I let them sleep in till 12 at weekends to give me a brake and feed them all I can without making them obese so to get some respite I need to ply them with movies! I would love the Blue Ray & movies as after all…there is only so much much time I can spend watching my pet chickens, taking deep breathes and counting to 3 before going back in the room to part quarreling teens without going crazy – don’t you agree?
