‘Dan in Real Life’ giveaway

Steve Carell Dan in Real Life   Okay Tallyheads, this is not exactly Office-related, but I’ve got two “Dan in Real Life” DVDs (SRP $29.99) to give away!

I thought the movie was very sweet, and that Steve Carell made a great Everyman romantic lead. My favorite DVD extras were, of course, the outtakes (the first thing I ever go to on any DVD) and “the making of” featurette, which brought a tear to my eye.

Here’s a video clip from the film —
I call it Pancake Rage.

  1. This contest is now closed to new entries. Winners announced soon!

  2. I think he would have fun with the kids,but would make alot of mistakes in effective discipline

  3. A father who’s great when you’re a kid, and an embarrassment as a teen, and pitied as an adult.

  4. He would be a fun dad but also discipline his child when necessary since the child would make him responsible.

  5. Michael Scott would be a hilarious father…to watch. I’d just hate to be the mother who would have to fix all the messes he and the kid got into. :)

  6. please enter me :)

  7. I think he would be a little odd; definitely one of a kind!

  8. I would love to win this DVD Heard it was a good movie

  9. He’ll be terrible at it, just like he is as a boss. He’ll teach the kid bad words, bad manners and bad habits. Poor kid.

  10. He would make a really great Dad, but I think he might let the kids get away with a little too much.

  11. he will make it

  12. Michael Scott would try too hard and make many mistakes but love enough to make up for his bumbling ways.

  13. Michael Scott would be a kind-hearted father who would show his love through humor and many smiles.

  14. 200 word maximum!
    Michael would be an interesting father, but he would raise his children to be independent and creative thinkers.

  15. Michael’s “motivational parenting”: fun-tivities instead of playing catch, Dundies instead of birthday presents, and ketchup fights instead of … normal things.

  16. His heart is in the right place.

  17. Oh good heavens…Michael Scott…I think he would be a father who has NO CLUE what his children are up to, but loves them very much. I think he’d play kid games, and be great at sound effects!

  18. He would love the child, but he would make the kid take improv classes and live vicariously through him/her.

  19. Michael would be a totally goofy dad…as many dads are!

  20. Steve Carell is the funniest!
