Alvin & The Chipmunks Movie Or "I see my childhood crumbling..."

Alvin! Simon! Theodore! Doot! Doot! Do Do Do Doot!

Who knew a tape wound a little too tightly could make such pleasant sounds for Rugrats? Being apart of what I'm guessing is the second generation of Chipmunks fans,
this 80's cartoon made my weekday (or was it Saturday) mornings.

And now there is going to be a live-action movie. Just in time for Christmas. Who was naughty?

Most people have bulked at yet another movie where Hollywood is raping our childhood to make a quick buck; but at the sametime, I won't complain if it's done right (yeah, like that's going to happen?)

In any event, here's a list of the top 10 things wrong with the movie poster taken from VH1's Infamous Best Week Ever

10. WHY ARE THE CHIPMUNKS SO GANGSTA?!?!?!
9. Alvin has no eyes, and might very well murder your first born.
8. NO, REALLY, DOES ANYONE HERE REMEMBER ALVIN LOOKING LIKE EMINEM‘S BALLSACK? If I were walking down a dark street, and Alvin and his thuggy friends were walking towards me… I WOULD CROSS THE STREET. And they are animated chipmunks.
7. Jason Lee’s mutant eye-brow. I’ve never seen a bigger cock(ed brow) in my life!
6. The tag line “They’re Back and Bigger Than Ever” is worrisome… how big are these little Thug-munks going to be? Look, at a foot tall, they can still be sort of adorable, but anything over 4 feet will induce the sort of childhood nightmares not seen since Follow That Bird. Perhaps they had to adjust Chipmunk size because of the tall and lankified Jason Lee? Where is Danny Devito when you need him?
5. Theodore’s childhood squirrel-besity problem.
4. Chipmink CGI’d claws are freaking me out.
3. Fine, fine, make the Chipmunks as gangsta-fly as you want… But Simon’s 1990’s hat/glasses/hoodie combination are making me want to jump-jump right now.
2. Simon was supposed to be the nerd! They could have made a tall, slender, hipster chipmunk that would have had dork girls swooning! Instead, they’ve given us DJ Jazzy Sizz-imon.
1. From the looks of it, seems producers are trying to “spruce up” the Chipmunks to a new generation of fans… and that worries us. Will they even sound like the helium-drunk critters we remember from yesteryear? Or will they have deeper man-munk voices now? What are kids going to do with helium balloons at birthday parties — use them for heroin consumption? Is the Lollipop League dead and gone for good?

Here's the trailer:
