Hey numbnuts, gotta question for ya: What's your major malfunction? Well, if it's your iPod Nano, we may be able to help. Next week the Matt Damon Iraqi War flick Green Zone opens and by all accounts, it's supposed to be dope (say what you will about Matt Damon, such as: "My girlfriend thinks of him when she masturbates," dude makes some good movies).
To celebrate Green Zone's release, we're teaming with the studio to give away an 8 GB iPod Nano to the first Complex reader who comes to the office and burns the three weeks of accumulated shit in our latrine answers every question in our War Movie Music Challenge. As with our PS3 Giveaway from last week (winner to be announced tomorrow), some questions are hard, and some may be FUBAR, but we can't just give the iPod to the first private who shits his pants at the sign of enemy fire. So get to quizin', maggot!
