If I could just go back in time the Minutemen way GIVEAWAY!

June 1st, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

minute.jpgHave you ever wished you could go back in time and “re-do” an embarrassing moment? That is exactly what the characters do in Disney’s latest DVD release, Minutemen. Three teen boys figure out how to time travel with a combination of ordinary objects including computers, a microwave, a slide projector, and a diving board. Within a ten minute window the boys can fix their mistakes of the recent past before returning to the present.

Of course their time traveling escapades aren’t without issues and each time travel puts a tear in space and a near end to the world. Predictably there is a love triangle and plenty of stereotyping and bullying of high school students that all works out in the end.

Overall Minutemen is a very entertaining flick. My kids watch it over and over and I have not minded watching it a few times myself. My husband even watched the movie to the end after our kids fell asleep after the bazillionth time watching. ~Kristie

We are giving away a copy of the Disney’s recently released Minutemen DVD to two lucky winners.

    I’d love to fix the time I tried sneaking out of a faculty meeting, and tripped on my chair, landing on the floor!!!

  2. #2 Lee Klein on June 2, 2008:

    My kids loved this movie. I’d love to be able to go back in time and skip those relationships that were so detrimental to my self esteem.

    When I met my husband-to-be’s family for the first time, I bought a new outfit to look my best. Unfortunately I left the price and size tag hanging out of my rear end. I would cut the tag off if I could go back in time, or just wear an outfit that I already had!

  4. #4 Jason Vaughn on June 2, 2008:

    I’d go back to the to the time in second grade where I just didn’t make it to the bathroom in time.

    I’d love to go back to when I was a scorekeeper for the high school wrestling team and wore that skirt to the district meet, the skirt with back seam that slowly unraveled over the course of the day. I still blush when I remember that day.

    Great movie.

  8. #8 Jennifer Barnett on June 2, 2008:

  9. #9 Michael Capp on June 2, 2008:

    I want to win!

  10. #10 Jill on June 2, 2008:

    I’d love to fix when my mom fell flat on her face at my wedding. She was the only one on the dance floor and she had had too much to drink. The bad thing is that my in-laws’ family doesn’t drink at all.

  11. #11 Marion on June 2, 2008:

    Oh gosh, I have so many embarrassing moments. One of them was when I was when I was at work and I bent down and my scrubs split.

  18. #18 Linda Moeller on June 2, 2008:

    Most embarrassing moment….our plumber was working on the main sewer line. Apparently, tampons are NOT as flushable as we’d like to think. As he removed them one by one, he said plumbers refer to them as “little white mice.” I was about 19 and, of course, this was done with my father and brother present. GEESH!

  19. #19 Tonya Froemel on June 2, 2008:

    Enter me too. My kids love this movie.

    Toilet paper stuck and trailing on my shoe in a class is one moment I would love to change.

  23. #23 Darlene M on June 2, 2008:

    There are so many things I wish I could change if I had the ability to go back in time, but since I can’t I’ll just have to watch it on the screen.

  24. #24 Pauline M on June 2, 2008:

    Love this movie, my son and I have seen it many times on TV. My most embarassing moment is when I was interviewing for a job and laughed too hard, you can imagine the rest!

    If I could go back in time, I would love to go to my flight to NYC where I vomitted all over myself because their wasn’t a barf bag in the seat in front of me. In my own defense, I was 28 weeks pregnant and it was a very turbulant flight. Four other people also lost their breakfast. :)

  44. #44 Eileen on June 3, 2008:

    If I could go back, I would have not worn the heels I had on when I about 6ish months pregnant, we were walking into the restraunt and the heel snapped! Talk about embarassing! Good thing I had flip-flops in the car! lol

  45. #45 Beverley Justice on June 3, 2008:

    Once, when I was much younger, I was very eager to greet my new husband properly. It was his habit to arrive every night at the same time on the dot. I heard footsteps come quickly up our front porch. I ran to the door and flung it wide open, wearing nothing but a smile. UPS was delivering a package. That poor man turned around and ran back to his truck, put it in reverse, and almost ran into my husband’s car, spinning tires as he backed out onto the street. Sigh. If I could go back in time, I’d sure change that moment a mite…

    if i could go back in time, id spend more time with my dad before he died

  60. #60 Peter on June 4, 2008:

    Well, if I could go back in time, I’d probably change most of puberty. Of course, the me then was a punk and wouldn’t listen to the me now because I obviously don’t know what I’m talking about.

  61. #61 JenO on June 4, 2008:

    I was sleeping in the nude when my water broke…with a severly prolapsed cord so we had to rush to the hospital. I walked into the emergency room with a towel between my legs, a winnie the pooh housecoat thrown over me and my sleep mask still on my forehead.

    I could have at least removed the sleep mask and straightened my hair.

    And we won’t go into the “shoulder/knee” position I got to ride thru the hospital displaying…er….everything.

  62. #62 Belinda on June 4, 2008:

    The first place I worked had a single bathroom. Everyone that worked there knew that it was occupied if the door was closed so I got in the habit of not locking the door. This worked OK until a coworker’s husband needed to take the baby to the bathroom and walked right it on me. Eeeeek.

  63. #63 James Jenkins on June 4, 2008:

    Wow!!

  81. #81 Jennifer M on June 5, 2008:

    Enter me please and thanks.
    I’d love to do over the time I got presented with my 5 year pin at work– I had just come back after major surgery and the Supt. came into the office to give me my 5 yr. pin and at the time he reached out to congratulate me and shake my hand I had a mouth full of taffy. The bad part was the taffy was stuck to my upper denture so I could barely talk and be understood. How embarrasing.

  88. #88 Noelia Gutierrez on June 5, 2008:

    i would like to fix the time I came out of the restroom with my skirt tucked in my hose.

    My daughter would love this!

  92. #92 Glenda D on June 6, 2008:

    I would love to win this. Have not seen the movie. Everyone has a most embarassing time. It would be hard to pick just one. The most recent one would be going to church with an unmatched pair of shoes, you know trying on two different shoes to see which looked best then forgetting to get the match.

  93. #93 John MacDonald on June 6, 2008:

  101. #101 Hesper F on June 7, 2008:

    When I was at work and walked into a closet instead the exit door. They never let me live that one down!

  102. #102 Monique on June 7, 2008:

    We enjoyed this movie when it was aired. We’d love to see it again.

  103. #103 Diane Perkins on June 7, 2008:

    In fifth grade I got my mood ring stuck in my braces and had to go to the front of the room and have my teacher try to remove my stuck ring and finger from my braces. Yes this really happened and 33 years later I am still scarred for life….plus it ruined a perfectly good mood ring!

  104. #104 Aimee Fontenot on June 7, 2008:

    I’d want to go back in time so I wouldn’t scream at my boyfriend last week when I was mad at him and I wouldn’t kick him out. I’m embarrassed by how I acted that day, and I’d love to change it.

  105. #105 Alicia T on June 7, 2008:

    Thanks for the contest.

  106. #106 kiyana on June 8, 2008:

    Probably all those times I got drunk when I was younger and threw up all over myself!

  107. #107 Paula Harmon on June 8, 2008:

    I saw something about this movie on tv last night and it looks good. When I was a kid at the fair, I stepped over a rope to walk across some grass, not realizing it was an obstacle course for the horse show. The judge yelled at me.

  108. #108 K. Cleaver on June 8, 2008:

    This would be a hit at our house. (I’m not sharing my most embarrassing moment. LOL)

    Nice to win

  110. #110 Elizabeth M. on June 8, 2008:

    I’d love to see this movie. We love Disney flicks. As for embarrassing, I’m quite sure I’d like to take back that accidental toot I made in 9th grade English class. Not the best moment of my life.

  111. #111 Kathy Mullins on June 8, 2008:

    Great prize!! Disney puts out some really good movies.

    My most embarrassing moment was when I was a senior in high school and I worked part time at a local hospital. I started my period without realizing it and stained my jeans quite badly. Much to my embarrassment I had to call my mom to bring me a pad, fresh pants and underwear. I thought I would die from embarrassment! If I could go back in time, I would have started my period at home, in the bathroom.

  112. #112 Pat Connors on June 8, 2008:

    My children would love this too.

  129. #129 Marion Burgess on June 9, 2008:

    I would go back into time and dress differently and get my hair cut more!

  130. #130 Carissa D. on June 9, 2008:

    I would go back to late elementary/early junior high and actually do something with my hair.

  131. #131 Terri L on June 9, 2008:

    My kids would love this!

    My moment I’d change….having breakfast with a friend’s family. I am meeting her cousin’s little baby for the first time. All comments to the baby are addressed to “Sunshine”, which I immediately assumed was a pet name for her. So, I say out loud “What is her real name?”. Sunshine is her real name. I’d go back and keep my thoughts to myself!!!

  132. #132 Heather C on June 9, 2008:

    This sounds like a fun DVD!

    I would go back to college, at the contest for homecoming queen…and just stop my answer after the first sentence. I just kind of rambled on and on, trying to answer the question, and just kept sounding more and more ridiculous. Ugh.

  133. #133 Kayce C on June 9, 2008:

  138. #138 Tammy on June 9, 2008:

    Thanks for the chance. If I could go back in time and fix an embarassing moment, it would be when I was at summer camp, and I went outside in my nightgown, but didn’t realize that the back was stuck up, so my underwear was showing. How embarassing!

  139. #139 Karen on June 9, 2008:

    Thanks for the contest.

    I would go back in time and never ever ever had gotten that perm that I did in 11th grade, my hair is so fine to begin with, it was “fugly”.
