Today is actually the first day you can see Christopher Nolan’s latest magnum opus Interstellar, that is, if you have an IMAX theater nearby. About a month ago, Paramount Pictures announced it would be opening Interstellar three days early on 70mm IMAX screens so that viewers who wanted the immersive experience could get it ahead of everyone else. For those of us not lucky enough to live in a region serviced by a real IMAX theater, don’t despair, we can still get our tickets to Interstellar now for the traditional November 7 opening.

After the jump, we’ll fill you in on how you can get a free movie ticket from Fandango and as well as a chance to take a ride on your own rocketship!

We also have some free movie tickets to give away thanks to the kind folks at Fandango. If you want one of these promo codes, all you have to do is:

1.) Follow @thenerdsofcolor on twitter.

2.) Tweet out the following:

3.) Sit back and wait for us to announce on twitter one randomly chosen winner some time on Friday, November 7.

4.) Check out Interstellar at your favorite local cinema this weekend.

Simple as that.

If you don’t win a free ticket, buying one through Fandango will enter you into another, even cooler contest. In conjunction with the movie’s hotly anticipated opening, Fandango has teamed up with XCOR to offer up a special sweepstakes that would allow moviegoers an opportunity to visit the frontiers of space themselves!

All you have to do is buy your tickets to see Interstellar through the banner below, and you’ll be automatically entered into the sweepstakes.
