Matt Tauber says:

UGH…look at brainy Simon and naive Theodore! The’ve been thugged-out. Though we have been lacking in a Chipmunk version of “Gold Digger”.

Tom Stidman says:

Another sign of the apocolypse is upon us. I loved Alvin and the Chipmunks as a kid, but they look like they’re straight out of Baltimore City (and not Fells Point). Who thinks they will be singing Riding Dirty as the opening of this movie? No thank you.

LilWillow says:

It’s coming out in christmas…does that mean they’re gonna pimp out the hoolahoop song?

Paul Sebert says:

You think they would have at least had the decency to cast Will Ferrell in the title role.

joncormier says:

I was wondering what that JJ Abrams preview was for before Transformers. I really hope they only do Fergie songs for the entire movie.

V. Smith says:

Damn, I wish I was able to post earlier. I new that people will be all besides themselves over this, but 1) was anyone over the age of 8 going to see this movie and 2) do you think that it’s really going to be a “hip-hop” Alvin & the Chipmunks? It’s just a poster.

And would anyone be up in arms if the chipmunks were dressed as emo kids?

My eyes! De Blu-Blockas do nussink!

If you’d asked me previous to this weekend whether, based upon their output for the year so far, Hollywood was capable of successfully putting their own spin on a beloved classic, I’d have sneered (300 notwithstanding). But after Transformers and the religious experience it evoked in me, I say sure, screw it, rapping Chipmunks, why not; it’s not as though you’re going to catch me seeing it before its played on Showtime on a lazy Sunday, Christmas 2008.
