We love running contests around here, and we’ve got another great one this week. Our friends at Dolby Labs have given us two Blu-ray copies of the action blockbuster smash ‘Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol‘ with explicit instructions that they are to be delivered to two of you, our readers. (Sadly, the message didn’t self-destruct afterwards. That would have been really cool.) We’re happy to oblige. If you’d like a chance to win one, read on after the page break.
In addition to being tremendously entertaining, ‘Ghost Protocol’ also makes for fabulous eye and ear candy on Blu-ray. Here’s a video interview with director Brad Bird talking about the movie’s sound design and the Blu-ray’s Dolby TrueHD 7.1 soundtrack:

How do you win? Our photo caption contests always seem to be a hit, so let’s do another one of those. All you have to do is come up with a funny or clever caption for the following image. Click to enlarge.
For example: “C’mon, Tom. Just ten more crunches and your workout is done for the afternoon.”
Pretty simple, right? The winners will be chosen at our own subjective discretion based on whichever responses we enjoy the most. We have two copies of the Blu-ray to give away.
Entries are limited to 10 per person. That should give you plenty of opportunity to craft a good submission, but will also help us to avoid any potential appearance of awarding prizes based on volume rather than quality.
This contest is only open to entrants from the domestic United States. We will not ship internationally (whether you’re a U.S. citizen or not). Employees of High-Def Digest or Internet Brands and their families are not eligible. Standard contest rules and conditions apply. People who have won any of our previous contests within the past one year are also not eligible to win, but may get Honorable Mentions.
The deadline for entry is this Friday, April 27th. The winners will be announced next week. Good luck, everyone!

Tom decided he liked everything about the protocol except the “becoming a ghost” part.

Tom it’s okay, the studio changed their mind, they WILL let you play the rock god in Rock of Ages.

Tom Cruise’s mid-life crisis was not edited out of Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol.
“Ethan, when I said we should hang out sometime, this is NOT what I had in mind!”
And thus fanboys everywhere finally found out who would win in a Bourne VS Hunt fight: neither. They would both inevitably go flying out a window.
Rocky has nothing on Ethan Hunt’s training montages!
Jeremy Renner trying to kill off Tom Cruise and effectively take over yet another action franchise for himself.
“Ethan, I told you: singing “Freefalling” while doing this isn’t remotely as funny as you think it is! It’s tragic!”
“No, seriously, Jeremy, grab Simon and let’s see if we can fill the IMAX screen from top to bottom!”
“Tom, how many times do I have to tell you, this isn’t the world’s biggest slide!”
“Okay, you were right: doing all my own stunts without wires was a bad idea. Now get me the hell back up there!”
Jamie
Pee-eew! Did you wash you feet today, they stink!
Mike Christy
I really wish you hadn’t gone commando today!
or
“Alright, alright I apologise.”
“You’re really sorry?”
“I’m really, really sorry. I apologize unreservedly.”
“You take it back?”
“I do. I offer a complete and utter retraction. The imputation was totally without basis in fact and was in no way fair comment and was motivated purely by malice and I deeply regret any distress that my comments may have caused you or your family and I hereby undertake not to repeat such slander at any time in the future.”

-I can’t hear you, Ethan. I need to hear you say it, or I’m gonna let go.
-Show me the money.
-I need to feel it, Ethan.
-Show me the money!!

You’re right, that cloud does look like an upside down bunny rabbit.

-I know I’m new at this, but is this really the best way to keep up foreign relations?
-Yes, I’ll flip the bird, then take a Polaroid. Trust me, I learned this from a Navy buddy of mine.
