Amanda was very cute during Honey Honey Honey, and she has quite the voice.
Way to go Karen.

Chiquitta was cut from the film, along with The Name of the Game, I've heard. Both were filmed, I assume they'll be bonus features on the DVD.
Knowing Me Knowing You, Under Attack, and Thank You For the Music (I think there are 1 or 2 more, as well) were cut without being filmed. "Music," sung by Seyfried and a piano, appears during the final credits of the movie (along with the megamix) and is connected to the final track of the soundtrack. The megamix isn't, though.

The way I heard it, "Chiquitita" is still included in the movie, however, the songs "Under Attack", "One of Us" and "Knowing Me, Knowing You" have been removed. Instead, "When All is Said and Done", from ABBA's final album, The Visitors, will be included in the film as a new song not present in the stage musical. "Thank You For the Music" will be included in the movie and played over the closing credits.
chemengrgal has it right. At least, as of the pre-screenings last week, "Chiquitita" is in the movie, and "Under Attack," "One Of Us," and "Knowing Me, Knowing You" have been cut. You will hardly miss them with all that's going on. "When All Is Said And Done" has also been added, but it's a lot slower than the original. However, as a huge fan of the original, I think it still sounds quite nice (though it would sound a lot nicer if Pierce wasn't singing).
Plus, "I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do" is hardly in the movie. It serves its purpose and then gets cut very short. So you wouldn't really want it on the CD anyway, trust me.
And I like these clips. They show you some great stuff, without giving too much away. I always hate when movies show the best parts in the trailer and then you have nowhere to go but down as you watch the whole thing.
Agreed on "The Winner Takes It All" that looks like on hell of a scene. If I got chills from that tiny clip, I can only imagine what it will be like in the context of the film.
