This Company Wants to Pay You $1K to Go on a Star Wars Binge

Let’s be honest, you’re probably going to watch hours upon hours of “Star Wars” this December anyway. So you might as well get paid for it.

That’s the deal from CableTV.com, the cable and streaming review site, which wants to give one Twitter user $1,000 just for watching all 10 “Star Wars” films back-to-back. The only catch? You need to provide a running commentary of the films on social media. But is that even a catch these days?

Yes, You Have to Watch 'The Phantom Menace'

To some, this will be pennies from heaven. For others, their “Phantom Menace” PTSD might already be kicking back in.

Either way, it’s a straightforward proposition: you watch the original three films – “Star Wars,” “The Empire Strikes Back” and “Return of the Jedi,” the prequels (“The Phantom Menace,” “The Attack of the Clones” and “Revenge of the Sith”), and two of the three sequels (“The Force Awakens,” “The Last Jedi”), along with the two “Star Wars”-universe entries – “Solo” and “Rogue One” – and you get to knock them off in any order you like. 

For those counting along at home, that’s 22 hours and 25 minutes of “Star Wars.” And for those who don’t have a calculator – or, a job – you’re getting paid around $45 an hour to do not much more than watch Luke, Leia, Han, Obi-Wan and the gang lark about in a galaxy far, far away. You’ll also get to keep all the films on Blu-ray and receive some “Star Wars” swag, including a Chewbacca onesie, a Han Solo Nerf blaster and an R2-D2 popcorn machine.

To Enter

It's pretty simple, really – just head to Cable TV and write 200 words on why you’re the Jedi for the job. You need to be 18 years or older and a U.S. citizen, and you need to have an active Twitter account. The deadline is 7 p.m. eastern time, Wednesday, December 11, so start drafting.

And yes, your marathon will wrap up before you have to push off and see the new film, “The Rise of the Skywalker,” when it’s released on December 20.
