Chicago, assemble your team and see Ocean's 8 early and for free

In Ocean’s 8, the new spin-off of the Ocean’s trilogy, Sandra Bullock puts together a team of expert criminals to steal some extremely expensive jewelry from the Met Gala. Her crew includes Cate Blanchett, Mindy Kaling, Helena Bonham Carter, Rhianna, Sarah Paulson, Awkwafina, and Anne Hathaway, but you won’t need nearly as many famous people to pull off a similarly dramatic heist of your own. It doesn’t involve any jewels, but The A.V. Club is giving away free passes to an early screening of Ocean’s 8 in Chicago for anyone looking to make one last score before getting out of the robbery game for good.

The screening will be held on June 4 at the AMC River East, and all you need to do to get your own tickets is hack into some security cameras, pay off someone on the inside, pretend to get caught by the villain, and then sneak off with the goods. Actually, you just need to fill out your information at this link, but remember: Advance screenings are often intentionally overbooked, so be sure to arrive early if you want to secure a seat.
