Alvin and the Chipmunks movie - Page 8

Does being freaked out by the fact they don't wear their attire in so many cuts of this trailer make me a soccer mum?

Not really, but half this stuff creeps me out.

Eh.. it kinda is. See Simon has a darker side that's rarely used. How else would he have known what pot looks like in Cartoon All Stars???

I dunno. The sexy growl would be more up Alvin's Ally....

I saw the preview for this when I saw the movie Enchanted. To me, it does look funny and cute, so I'm gonna go see it. I was a fan of the original Chipmunks, but I think they've just modernized them for today's generation who don't know who the Chipmunks are. I still feel it will be a good movie, so I'm gonna give it a chance.

They should have gone with an animated movie first (: Maybe to test the waters.

Well, that housekeeper was pretty hot.

I'm pretty sure this movie will be bad, but I'll probably go see it anyway. So I can warn everyone I know if they ask about it.

They did... The Chipmunk Adventure. It had the Chipmunks and Chippette's in an around the world balloon race. One of my fave animated films. It was in theatres 20 years ago.

~~AquaParade~~ · 11-27-2007, 02:23 AM

Oh ya, I know of that one. I love it too... actually didnt know it was ever in theaters though. But I meant they should have done that with today's audiences.

*odupianist* · 11-27-2007, 07:59 AM

Other than the sexy growl, I think they were almost right on with the personalities. I mean they have Bagdasarian Jr as Alvin, so it can't be that bad. I mean he's second in line for the franchise so I'm sure he helped make the film work out just right. I'll probably go see it.

Not to mention the film features a scene with the Chippetes singing in scantly-clad outfits to legions of snakes

*Magdolin* · 11-27-2007, 12:33 PM

People, before we get this into a big mess, I think maybe we should at least go see it, or rent it before we say anything bad about it. Is everybody cool with that?

Sounds like this is a movie I should go pick up and watch before going to see the new movie.

*sings* We are the girls...we are the girls of rock and roll..... we are the boys...yes we are the boys of rock and roll...

Ah classic songs from Chipmunk Adventure.

*sings her fave song from the movie* My mother...that's who I mean..

Funny that the Chipettes sing about how they miss their mother. NM the fact that they don't even KNOW their mother as they were abandoned at an orphanage in Australia when they were babies.

Saw the trailer. Looks funny as hell. I'll be watching.

That scene always had me rolling on the floor laughing when I was a kid.

That movie was pretty fun, I wouldn't mind seeing it again.

As for this new movie, I'll probably end up waiting for it to air on tv...too many good movies coming out this X-Mas for me to bother with this one.

*BubblyShell22* · 11-28-2007, 11:19 AM

I remember the Chipmunk Adventure, too. Is it out on DVD?

Yep! And there's some deleted stuff (like the boys being captured by dogs in Russia... litteral Communist Russian Dogs....

)

They're talking about the trailer, which is terrible.

AKA 'take away all morals for supposed humor'? This is why the generations have such an awful generation gap. This generation should get to know the real chipmunks, not the money-oriented, greedy, fart joked stupidity that this will ensure. Though... judging by alot of entertainment now, it doesn't surprise me. Morals offend too many people nowadays.

Where is Simon's dark side? I've seen him shy around girls and everything else Simon, but have yet to see a supposed 'dark side'. Clips? Episodes? Or is this all fan-made stuff?

Im sure it's on youtube but Cartoon All Stars To The Rescue was a major crossover of most of the shows at that time (1990). The Chipmunks, Michelangelo, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Alf, Muppets, the Smurfs, Tigger, Garfield, Winnie the Pooh, Slimer and some Looney Tunes characters tried to teach this kid why drugs are bad. Simon recognized right away that he had pot and at one point Michelangelo saves em from an evil pot monster. A rather odd cartoon

Ah here it is. Knew it would be on YouTube:

...So he knows what pot is. Any educated person really would. It doesn't mean he has a dark side, or used it... just that he's educated about things.
