Alvin & the chipmunks on Wii

Alvin & the chipmunks on Wii

Remember that cartoon from the 80's called Alvin & The Chipmunks? Well there's a live action movie in production, and along with movies come games.

A rhythm game at heart, Alvin & The Chipmunks for Wii will feature 40 songs, reworked in the chipmunk fashion. So far the known titles are:

  • Blink 182 - All the small things
  • REM - Shiny happy people
  • Smash Mouth - All star
  • Run DMC - It's tricky
  • Elvis Presley - Heartbreak hotel

Some good songs there, although they'll probably cease to be good after being butchered chipmunk-style.

CEO of the production company, Ross Bagdasarian commented that Alvin, Simon and Theodore have undergone a bold new makeover. The movie is scheduled for release on December 14th.

Are you serious? I knew about a "Get Fuzzy" movie, but a Chipmunk movie? I don't know whether to jump for joy or jump out my window.

If the chipmunks are associated with Blink 182, then I doubt that in the movie they will have their same old cute innocent appearance. Boo to whoever is making the movie.

I saw an advertisement for it at the theater. Believe me, that "bold new makeover" is exactly what you expect. 3 CG chipmunks wearing hoodies, shades and baggy pants. Standing with their arms crossed trying to look "hip".
