I want to watch it with Drag Queens !!!
Shannon W Dec 2, 2008, 5:45pm EST
I would give it to our new roommate and friend Carleen (and watch it with her! :) ). She's had a really hard year and though things are picking up a bit for her, she could use something that would put a smile on her face.
Vivian P. Dec 2, 2008, 5:45pm EST
Oh wow
Desire Hendricks Dec 2, 2008, 5:45pm EST
I would love to watch this movie with my children, my mom, and sister. We're musical fans. My daughter really likes them; she's a High School Musical fan--singing, dancing and storytelling--a winning combination.
David C. Dec 2, 2008, 5:45pm EST
I would watch this with my wife and two daughters, in bed. Like the old days. My kids are older now and we don't all get together as often as we like. Heck, I don't even know if we would all fit in bed anymore. LOL
Candy S. Dec 2, 2008, 5:45pm EST
I love this movie so much. I would watch with my whole family. My mom, my daughter , my son , my husband and even my 8 year old son loves it. We all sing and dance. You just can't help but dance.
Bridget ♥ Dec 2, 2008, 5:46pm EST
I would watch the film with my husband. I know he would consider this a "chick flick" but he would still watch it with me because it's something I'd enjoy! My husband makes me heart dance each and every day!

My daughter LOVES to sing and dance and I know she would LOVE to watch this movie too! I would watch it with her, it would be fun and entertaining!
Peter Joseph Swanson Dec 2, 2008, 5:46pm EST
Pick the winners NOW !!!!
My step-mother and I used to go to see plays and dancers on stage all the time, many different things, from Cats to the Russian Ballet performing Cinderella. It was our thing to do together. At the time, I was also a dancer, and danced competitively with one studio, while learning classical ballet from a professional school of ballet. We often drove up to an hour away for a good show.

One show she always wanted to see live was Mamma Mia, but we were never able to catch it. I know she went to see the movie with a friend of hers when it was in the theater and absolutely loved it.

I would love to be able to give this to her, as kind of a reminder of all the fun shows we've seen together over the years.
I just don't think I can watch Brosnan embarass himself.
Dena Straughn Dec 2, 2008, 5:47pm EST
My stepmother has worked for the Fox Theater for 30 years in wardrobe and by Mama Mia is her all time favorite musical. I would like to give her something special because she chose to love not only my dad who was incredibly alone after 45 years of marriage to my mom (who passed away about three years ago), but also, my brothers and I. It would be great to pass this along to Mama Sue.
Netty B. Dec 2, 2008, 5:48pm EST
This movie is not out yet! I checked at Wal Mart and they said it would not be out until after the first of the year!
Katrina Hall Dec 2, 2008, 5:49pm EST
To be honest, I really want it for myself! I'm dying to see this, hear this, and sure - own this. I'm up for a little cheer right now, and from the trailers I've seen, this looks like a wonderful, wonderful movie!
Netty B. Dec 2, 2008, 5:49pm EST
I went to see it in July or August with a friend and we decided to get it for each other for Christmas (I buy hers, she buys mine..lol) so I was very disappointed to find out it will not be released by then.
Valerie Roars Dec 2, 2008, 5:53pm EST
ohhhh I so want to watch it all alone so I can sing and dance freely ;)
mary bryant Dec 2, 2008, 5:53pm EST
I would love to give it to my daughter and then watch it with her. She is struggling hard with the money she makes working everyday and does not have the extra money to go to the movies on. I know this is one she has been wanting to see.
Jill~Sexy Back~ V. Dec 2, 2008, 5:53pm EST
I would love to win this movie! I wanted to see this so badly when it was in theaters, but with a 3 year old and no babysitter, it's hard to get away to the movies. I never got to see it, and I was so upset. I always wanted to see the musical too, but never got that opportunity either. I know I'd love this movie and it would be a treat to finally get to see it.
Jennifer G. Dec 2, 2008, 5:56pm EST
This movie is a favourite with my family and friends. I'm a huge fan of the music in this movie. When I went to see it, I took several foreign exchange students. We ended up getting there right before it started, and the theatre was full of 60 and 70 year olds. We sat in the front row and ended up clapping and singing and dancing... and a lot of the theatre did, too! :)
It was such a fun experience... I'd love to watch it with my family and friends and recreate the experience! :)
Suze P. Dec 2, 2008, 5:58pm EST
I would love to give this to my sister. She and I went to see it together for my birthday, and we both absolutely loved it. We sat in the (luckily not very crowded LOL) theater and sang along to all the great Abba songs..it was a spectacular day, and I'd love to give this movie to her as a gift so we could watch it together again...and remind both of us of that great day :O)
Netty, Walmart.com says 12/16/08 under each copy of Mamma Mia.
Tiffany G. Dec 2, 2008, 5:58pm EST
Well considering my husbands family consists of him and 6 girls whom ALL love music and movies We would end up watching it all together.. we all get together pertty much every Saturday and watch movies and play games etc.. im sure they would all love this movie.. between all the girls their kids us and our kids their would be a total of about 30 people getting to watch this movie all together.. Im not joking either.. we do it all the time!! Were always looking for new good movie also! This is definitly a family that loves music and movies so this would be the perfect gift! Hope we wi! I would do a photo essay also :) it will be good :)
Christina R. Dec 2, 2008, 5:59pm EST
I would love watching this with my wife because we've had a tough time this year and basically our only entertainment is DVDs. I have been disabled for 6 years and can't work. Denise has been my rock, but she was hurt last December in a car accident that totalled our car. We live out in the country and are pretty isolated. We watch the DVDs that we own over and over again just to have something to do because we can't afford satellite (and there is no cable out here). We wanted to see this when it was in the theater as well, but we had no money to do so. We both love Abba and the music in this movie sounds great. Thanks for considering us.
♠~Dnbuster~♠ ~. Dec 2, 2008, 5:59pm EST
my daughter would love to see this!!
oh pick me please...lol
Tiffany G. Dec 2, 2008, 6:00pm EST
I REALLY hope win this one! This would be soo much fun to watch with my in laws!
Dagmara H. Dec 2, 2008, 6:02pm EST
This movie sounds so great. I would watch with my hsuband. I have seen this movie advertising and it really looks good
Lina :-p Dec 2, 2008, 6:04pm EST
I never got to see this movie, I wanted to but life got in the way. This would make a great stocking stuffer, great giveaway!
Maggie Y. Dec 2, 2008, 6:06pm EST
I'd love to watch this with my daughter :)

Thanks!
Tabitha M. Dec 2, 2008, 6:06pm EST
I would give it to a co-worker of mine. Her husband is deployed in the middle east. When that movie was at the theater, there was a day that was particularly hard for her. She decided to leave work early and went to the show by herself. She came back the next day raving about how that movie had cheered her up.
Laura C. Dec 2, 2008, 6:08pm EST
I want to invite over my 16 year old niece and several of her friends and watch it together. Order a pizza, make some popcorn, share some of the christmas cookies i've made, get into our comfy pj's and make it a fun slumber party!
~♥~ Kim ~♥~ Dec 2, 2008, 6:10pm EST
I'd watch it with Mom. She'd love it. She's 82 and loves dancing and singing movies. I'd have to take it back home with me on my next visit to watch it with her (we live in different states) Her health makes it impossible for her to travel.
Cheryl W. Dec 2, 2008, 6:14pm EST
I would love to watch the film with my husband. This movie would bring back so many great memories for the 2 or us. The music of ABBA was hot when we were dating, and was one of our favorite groups. We meant to go and see it when it first came to the theatres, but we were both so busy, we didn't get to.
Rob Appell Dec 2, 2008, 6:18pm EST
I'd watch it with my best friend, Scott, because he's such a 'dancing queen' himself. He absolutely loves musicals of all types. I'd also give him a copy of the movie so he could watch it any time he wanted to...and sing right along with all the songs.
Nick H. Dec 2, 2008, 6:21pm EST
I'd give it to my wife. I'd say I'd watch it with her, but I'd likely fall asleep. She loves to dance around the living room to music, or in the kitchen when she's cooking or cleaning up. She would love this movie.
Nastacia M. Dec 2, 2008, 6:24pm EST
I am going to be in North Carolina for Christmas this year. My previous job did not allow me to go to my parents house over the holidays, so this will be my first time home for the Holidays in six years. I would love to bring this movie with me to watch with my parents and my sister. We all love musicals and this would be so much fun to share with them!!!
Lou Anne L. Dec 2, 2008, 6:25pm EST
I want to watch it with my sons.....
After I saw it at the movies with a friend I decided I must have a copy when it came out...
THIS movie is about me(us) of this age.....
and I wasn't sure I would even like it....HA! It brought me to tears a couple of times...in sublime humor as well as touching memories....
You have to see it if you haven't
Melinda ~choosing happiness~ S. Dec 2, 2008, 6:28pm EST
I LOVE this movie! I would love to have a copy of this to give to my son and daughter-in-law for Christmas- they have two small children and seldom get to go out to movies anymore. I am having a hard time affording Christmas gifts this year, so this would be a bonus gift!
Brittney R. Dec 2, 2008, 6:29pm EST
I would definitely watch this movie with my husband. We both work full time, and he works an hour from home, so we never have time to go out...plus, we have a toddler, so when we do go out, we're never alone. That means no movies for us! I pay a babysitter full time, and can't afford a "date" and a babysitter for the night! To make up for it, we try to have movie nights occasionally after our son goes to bed. It's our alone time, and we watch any and every movie we can get our hands on. My in-laws are good about trading movies with us so we have variety, and I know my sister-in-law would love to see this too!
Elaine A. Dec 2, 2008, 6:30pm EST
I would watch this with my husband, who would sing the wrong lyrics (even if I print out the correct lyrics) ;-)
.* Sandi * Dec 2, 2008, 6:36pm EST
I would give it to my sister, she is such a blessing to me, She has helped raised my kids after my husband died. My boys and I are lucky to have her
Nana to Seven Cutiepies Dec 2, 2008, 6:42pm EST
I'd love to see this with my female neighbors. The guys have their fishing and football. We could use a good movie at home night for all of us.
Kim M. Dec 2, 2008, 6:42pm EST
I would love to see this movie! Like Bridget, I'd watch it with Hubby. He's not a big musical fan like I am but he watches them for me. =)
elaine laflamme Dec 2, 2008, 6:47pm EST
i want to watch it with both my daughters
Debra C. Dec 2, 2008, 6:51pm EST
My monthly book club adds a night once a quarter to screen fun movies. I can just hear this group of women who love to laugh take on Mamma Mia!
Steph-in-NE ..... Dec 2, 2008, 7:00pm EST
I would give it to my grandson for he think the ladies are just beuatiful he is only 6yr old
Mary G. Dec 2, 2008, 7:07pm EST
My daughter and I would watch it together. She has just started to get interested in musicals and it would be so much fun spending time with her viewing it.
Carol V. Dec 2, 2008, 7:08pm EST
I would watch it with my mominlaw and sisinlaws and make it Girls Night event
Sandy M. Dec 2, 2008, 7:09pm EST
I would love to see this movie. I never made it to the movie theatre when it was in. I would watch it with my husband:)
Samantha V. Dec 2, 2008, 7:13pm EST
I would love to watch it with my Mom, my stepMom or my best friend, or maybe my Husband. :)
tammie p. Dec 2, 2008, 7:14pm EST
what a great movie. the dvd would make a great gift
Trish A. Dec 2, 2008, 7:14pm EST
I would love to have this movie and watch it with my two grown daughters. They both love musicals and it would be a treasure to watch this together.
Kristen S. Dec 2, 2008, 7:18pm EST
I haven't seen this movie yet, but I can't wait to rent it! My best friend loves this movie, and she's coming home for the holidays. I will definately watch it with her, even if I don't win it!
Linda G. Dec 2, 2008, 7:19pm EST
Sounds like a great DVD. I would love to win it! Thanks for the contest.
Mandy H. Dec 2, 2008, 7:21pm EST
I would love to watch it with my mom and my three daughters. It would be a good way for all of us to get together during the winter.
Kat W. Dec 2, 2008, 7:35pm EST
This would be a gift for my daughter. I would include an invitation for a "girls night" for the two of us and a goody bag of her favorite movie theater snacks.
Jan C. Dec 2, 2008, 7:39pm EST
I would want to give it to/and watch it with my daughter. We saw it together in the theater - and I swear we were the only ones singing along and moving at all. We watched it with a bunch of zombies who were afraid of public displays of sillyness!!
Jay D. Dec 2, 2008, 7:52pm EST
I would sit down and watch it with my wife and daughter. They are both into music especially my daughter, I am sure it would be a matter of minutes before she was up and dancing herself.
Mary M. Dec 2, 2008, 8:00pm EST
My mom and I went to see this in theaters and we really liked it. I would love to see it again and share with my own daughters as they get older! Besides, that soundtrack is fabulous.
C C. Dec 2, 2008, 8:03pm EST
I want my sister Sandi (see comment #39 above) to win the movie, she says she will give it to me! Then my dog LilliBelle and I would watch the move. This way I could sing along, act silly and LilliBelle would not be able to tell me how badly I sing!!!! :-)
meg pattinson Dec 2, 2008, 8:08pm EST
i remember when i was in 8th grade.. me, my mom, sister, & grandmother were supposed to see this on broadway in the city with my grandmother's sister.. & her three daughters [my mom's cousins] but a couple days before we were planned to see the show.. my grandmother's sister passed away.. so the plans were canceled respectively.. it was hard on us all.

i would watch this with my mom, sister, & grandmother.. it would be special to us.. & it's something we all would enjoy watching together & something my grandmother would enjoy.. she has alzheimers.. & movies have been her favorite thing lately. i know she'd really appreciate it.
j - Frugal Mom - r. Dec 2, 2008, 8:09pm EST
I would like to watch this dvd with my husband, as we rarely have time to wind down together. He works long hours, seven days a week, so there is not much time for him to relax and be entertained.
Susan *Brian's girl * H. Dec 2, 2008, 8:15pm EST
I would give it to my mom as a gift (and watch it with her). She loved the movie and we went to the theater to see it together before the movie came out.
t w. Dec 2, 2008, 8:22pm EST
I would love to watch this movie with my daughters, they both want to see it and I would love to be able to give it to them for Christmas and we could watch it togetrher Christmas night after dinner.
Sue * Dec 2, 2008, 8:35pm EST
I haven't seen this movie yet, but I love the music from it. I would absolutely watch the movie with my daughter...and probably leave it with her to share with her friends.
Senetria Gibson Dec 2, 2008, 8:41pm EST
i havent seen it yet but I would love to watch it i hope i get picked
April H. Dec 2, 2008, 8:47pm EST
I would love to watch this movie with my good friends who live right down the road. They are huge movie buffs, and love good music as well - so do I, I've been really looking forward to seeing this movie eventually!
carolyn b. Dec 2, 2008, 8:47pm EST
I would watch it with my 2 daughters
Marianne R. Dec 2, 2008, 8:55pm EST
I think I would want to watch it with my mother, who saw it in the theater twice. I saw it on stage at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. I think my mom & I would have a good time watching this one together. I already have it on my wish list at Amazon. It's available on Dec 16th!
Melanie B. Dec 2, 2008, 9:04pm EST
I was just checking out a preview for this movie. This would be a great movie for my daughter and I to watch. Was thinking of getting it for her for Christmas. *crosses fingers* =)
Shannon R. Dec 2, 2008, 9:07pm EST
I think this would make a great gift for my Aunt for Christmas. I don't usually get her anything but she always gets my children something which is so kind of her I would love to be able to give something to her. It looks like a really nice gift!
Teresa W. Dec 2, 2008, 9:18pm EST
I would give it to my daughter and then me and her and our friend/roommate would all sit together and watch it! That's what we usually do with movies and it's lots more fun together!
Oh my daughter loved this movie & wants it so badly for Christmas but I haven't seen that it is even available in stores yet! I so hope to win this!
Plus, I have not seen this movie & since my daughter raved about it - I have to see it!
I would watch it with my daughter & my husband, even though he would think it is a chick flick - I know he would like it too~
Apryl Just Apryl Dec 2, 2008, 9:38pm EST
I want to watch it alone the first time. I think sometimes we just need to have a couple of hours to wind down and watch something we will truly enjoy, besides I am having lots of down time right now recovering from my spinal injury. After that I would like to watch it with my husband.
Vikki M. Dec 2, 2008, 9:42pm EST
I saw it in the theater with my mom and would love to get it on DVD to give to her so we could watch it again together at her house. I can picture the two of us up and singing along with the movie. We would have broke out into song in the theater, but alas, we were a bit too shy to do so. haha
Patricia G. Dec 2, 2008, 9:54pm EST
I'd like to give it to my grandma--I remember her mentioning in a phone conversation that she wanted to see it at the theater but didn't get a chance. If I don't win it on here, I'm probably going to buy it for her.
Sophie S. Dec 2, 2008, 9:57pm EST
I would watch it with my three sisters. We are total suckers for drama and comedy and love spending time together, so movies like Mama Mia, are perfect for bringing us together. The twins and Missy are all into acting and singing so I can already hear the three of them dividing up the parts among themselves!
April H. Dec 2, 2008, 10:12pm EST
My, my how can I resist you! Mamma Mia! is the theatrical equivalent of an armchair journey to an island with a bluer than blue sky and a fuller than full moon -- a mythical land where young lovers live happily ever after and older lovers get a second chance at love. I would absolutely be in heaven watching this with my sister who m I would give this too. We buoth love ABBA
Sassy Cat Dec 2, 2008, 10:55pm EST
I've got to hand it to whoever did the casting for this movie. If they had picked anyone with singing talent, it would not have been nearly so successful. From the promos I've seen, Meryl Streep gets a lot nutso.
Sassy Cat Dec 2, 2008, 11:00pm EST
Are the winners supposed to review it for Gather after they've watched it? ;o)
Bruce S. Dec 2, 2008, 11:11pm EST
I want to watch it with my wife. We loved the Broadway Show!
Susan G. Dec 2, 2008, 11:26pm EST
Oh! My daughter and I wanted to see this movie together so badly when it came out, but neither of us had the money for movies or to pay a baby-sitter for her three year old. We would happily watch this together with my oldest daughter when she comes home for Christmas!
Bethany C. Dec 2, 2008, 11:36pm EST
I'd like to watch it with my hubby, of course, and my daughter, sisters and nieces. I like to give a copy to my brother-in-law who acts like a tough guy, but has been known to secretly love a couple of musicals.
Donna T. Dec 2, 2008, 11:39pm EST
Well, since my husband is the only person who will watch a movie with me, then I would watch it with him!

Thanks, Gather, for the opportunity to win something !
Cortney R. Dec 3, 2008, 12:26am EST
I would love to watch this with my mother in law. This is our kind of movie.
Sue D. Dec 3, 2008, 12:30am EST
I have a son with disabilites that requires a lot of attention. His sister often has to make sacrifices of the things she would like or time with me. I would like to share the movie with her. I think it would be great to spend some time with her and watch it together.
Janet "Jax" B. Dec 3, 2008, 12:43am EST
I want to watch the movie with my daughter, my neighbor Tracy, and her two daughters. I think the girls will love it.

I'd give it as a gift to my neighbor Dawn. She and I were planning on taking my daughter to see Mama Mia!, but we could never coordinate schedules. Neither of us ended up seeing it.
HEIDI F. Dec 3, 2008, 1:14am EST
I would give it to my friend billy. he's housebound and on a fixed income. and he loves musicals. he wanted to see this but didn't get to go to the theatres to see it.
sally g. Dec 3, 2008, 2:20am EST
I would like to watch the movie with my family.
Peter C. Frank Dec 3, 2008, 3:37am EST
What I'd like to do is get as many of my gay friends together as possible (being gay myself), as well as some of the faghags that we all hang out with, and a few straight friends who would enjoy the movie as well, and throw a party to watch this DVD on my brand-new 32" widescreen HDTV LCD television set. :) So please pick me and send me a copy of this movie -- I haven't been to the movie in ages, and my friends and I know most of the songs that you've listed!
edna r. Dec 3, 2008, 4:20am EST
I saw it at the theater with some friends. It was a fun movie. I would love to watch it with my daughter and my mom. My mom has Alzheimer's and lives with 3 ladies and a caregiver. I think they would all enjoy the movie.
Sandra H. Dec 3, 2008, 5:48am EST
I would love to watch it with my daughter. She was injured in an auto accident almost 10 years ago and one of her favorite things to do now is listen to music and sing along. I have been a fan of ABBA since they started recording and have all their albums. She can't go to the movies anymore because of her brain injury so we enjoy watching movies at home now.......it looks like a great movie!
Angela H. Dec 3, 2008, 6:33am EST
I'm "the mama" (mama mia) and I would watch this with my daughters! I have 4 of them so this would be a fun movie night! :)
Beth - Doing God's work Daily J. Dec 3, 2008, 7:17am EST
I would love this.
Denise B. Dec 3, 2008, 7:33am EST
I would love to watch this move with my sisters ( I have 6 of them) and my niece Katie she would love this too. I think we would all enjoy seeing it together and talking about it all the way through and after it :). This would be a great gift for any of them. might even make them be nice to me for it :) thanks for the chance to win this great movie :)
Dorine H. Dec 3, 2008, 8:40am EST
I'd give it to my niece for Christmas; I think she'd like it.
Dorine H. Dec 3, 2008, 8:41am EST
I'd enjoy watching it with a group of friends.
Diane H. Dec 3, 2008, 8:42am EST
Wow , many posts on this one. I would love to watch this movie with my daughter perhaps. I would probably then pay it forward for some one else to watch and ask of them to pay it forward as well. So on and so on. I think that would be a neat idea. However there are so many others who should be chosen. I am a member of Net Flix so i eventually would be able to rent it. This would be a wonderful way to spend time with my daughter.
Andrea K. Dec 3, 2008, 8:54am EST
I would want to watch it during a Girls Night In! With the women in my family! My mom, sister, aunts, cousins, and grandma! During Holiday Break would be a nice time to watch it!
