Why? This was the most annoying cartoon ever. At least they are gangsta now.

*E* The director of Garfield 2? What could possibly go wrong?

Yeah, but that was before you realize how hot and full of innuendo the Chippetes and their music were.

Watch "The Chipmunk Adventure", in particular the scene they sing about trying to nail a guy in a temple full of snakes.

Let me guess your top three:

1. Ariel The Mermaid
2. Betty Rubble
3. Dot Warner

And somewhere in the mix, there's Britanny from the Chippettes, Batgirl from BTAS and Jessie Bannon?

Well, towards the end of their career in the 1980s, the Chipmunks were forced to make some rather bold moves, so they were gangsters for a while...



IT'S CHIPPER TIME!!!

I watched a Chipmunk tape yesterday I think it was...and it was hosted by then Fresh Prince, Will Smith. I bet that's one project he doesn't mention in his resume. It had them rapping and doing rock and pop songs from the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's and even the 90's. Scary.

This is a second message board where I see this. So I guess it is not a joke.

The Chipmunks are COOL.

I hope the Chipettes are in it too.

No kidding, but everyone has to see it because it's "retro and retro is AWESOME!!!"

If you watched it as a kid it's okay for them to make a horrid movie out of it.

What?! I loved this cartoon!
Can't see it working this way though.

And actually, the Chipmunks most likely aren't going to be gangsta, at least they weren't in the cartoon. The Chipmunks though did release a punk rock album one year...it made the VH1 "What the F%$&?!" Moment of (can't remember the year).

Gansta Chipmunks is just so wrong! And I actually liked the old show in the 80s.

My church did a some little Christmas skits a couple years back with people dressed up as "famous fictional holiday characters." We had Scrooge and Tiny Tim, The Grinch, and The Chipmunks singing The Christmas Song. I got to be Alvin.

I do like the original chipmunks though. Still do.
