April 7, 2008 | Contests
What better way to ring in the new week than with a new contest, preferably one for a movie that will keep your children occupied for precious minutes while you attend to the finer things in life, such as checking your email or moving laundry around.
(Aim high, I always say.)
You may have seen the recent remake starring Jason Lee—Alvin and the Chipmunks are back and they’re cool enough for the big screen. Me, I’m bemoaning my precious 45s of the Chipmunks that I thought were high-tech, back in my childhood, but if they had to go modern, I guess this is okay, too.
I have three copies of the Chipmunks movie on DVD to give away, and maybe one has your name on it. To enter for a chance to win, simply leave a comment on this post before 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday, April 9th, 2008. One comment per person, please! Winners to be determined by random number generation and tidal patterns. You’ve got three chances to win, and those chances start right now.

April 7th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
Fun, I haven’t seen this yet!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:10 pm

April 7th, 2008 at 2:17 pm
chipmunks! chipmunks! chipmunks!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:17 pm
Yea!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:17 pm
We took our granddaughter to see the movie and she loved it. Yep, she goes around saying “bow chicka wow wow chicka wow wow”, but it isn’t as annoying coming from her as it was from the critters. She would be happy to have the movie!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:20 pm
My name is Ben. I’m four years old. My mom loves your website and tells everyone she knows about it. She says buttering you up won’t help, but it gets me places with her, so I’ll try with you.
I love the Chipmunks. They make me laugh hysterically and my mom and dad love to hear me laugh like that.
One part my mom DOESN’T love is the Bow-chicka-bow-wohw that I do from the movie. She says I sound like bad music to a bad movie. I have no idea what she’s talking about–I personally think it’s hilarious.
I hope I win. If long, pointless comments get extra points, we are SURE to win.
April 7th, 2008 at 2:20 pm
The tidal patterns never seem to go my way, but it is worth a shot! Count me in!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:23 pm
Woo Hoo! Another contest!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:23 pm
I want this movie sooooo badly!!!

April 7th, 2008 at 2:24 pm
Oohhhh I hope you pick me! I love Alvin…
April 7th, 2008 at 2:24 pm
Haven’t seen it yet but I’ve heard it’s cute!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:27 pm
My girls would love this movie!

April 7th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
We haven’t seen this yet, but how can you go wrong with a movie with hilarious Jason Lee and cute rodents?
April 7th, 2008 at 2:32 pm
Oh my- I would love to Alvin in my house.
April 7th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
We rented it and my kids were so mad at me for returning it. They would love to have a copy of their very own!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:34 pm
We saw this when it came out and my kids loved it! I want a free DVD!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
I’m an old school Chipmunk fan myself, but I did love the new movie! I would love to own it (but not pay for it!)
April 7th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
But does he get his hoola hoop? Or does he even still want one? That’s what I need to know.
April 7th, 2008 at 2:40 pm

comment comment comment
Also, can I just say that I CANNOT BELIEVE MY FIVE YEAR OLD LAUGHS AT THIS MOVIE. Actually laughs. OUT LOUD. Something about those chipmunk voices makes everything funnier, I guess.
April 7th, 2008 at 2:47 pm
insert comment here
April 7th, 2008 at 2:49 pm
My son has been asking to see this movie, but I’ve been a little, um, leary of the whole thing and so I haven’t bought it for him. But, you know, if it’s FREE, then I’ll take it.
*Kinda crossing fingers, kinda not*
April 7th, 2008 at 2:49 pm
Ok, one of these times, I’ve gotta be a winner!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:56 pm
Oh please random number generator…pick me!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:56 pm
Awesome! My kids have spent many hours watching original Chipmunks videos on YouTube, so this movie would either rock their worlds or crush their souls. Hope I get to find out which!
April 7th, 2008 at 2:58 pm
DD loves this movie and screams bow chicka bow wow every time she sees or hears any reference to it. Thanks!
April 7th, 2008 at 3:04 pm
My husband won’t let me get this movie to be in our house, but the neighbor’s daughter has a birthday coming up…

I can’t say as I am that enthused, they looked a little bit more smart-a** than I remember on the old cartoons. But I imagine that the little ones would love it.

April 7th, 2008 at 5:59 pm
OMG, I would love to win this. I really want to buy it for The Boy and I was planning on it until The Man got laid off on Friday, so no spending on extras until he gets another job. This would be a lovely surprise.
