Finally, here it is, that childhood-crushing behemoth that you always knew in your heart would come yet you never dared let scape your lips for fear that the very utterance of it would usher it forth from the dark recesses of your blackest nightmares. It's Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Game. Yes, it's a rhythm game. And yes, it includes the Chipmunks playing Blink 182, REM and ... wait for it ... Run DMC.
But unbelievably, the news gets better. See, this isn't just an Alvin and the Chipmunks game. This is a game based on an upcoming movie that re-imagines the Chipmunks for a new, hip demographic as you can see in the trailer above. Boy, if the game features the part where Alvin eats his own brother's defecation, it's automatically game of the year. Look for it (or, for the love of all things holy, don't) on Dec. 4.
Which is why it's gets a +. Who needs 4chan when Hollywood rapes our childhoods on a daily basis? Underdog and Alvin and the Chipmunks in the same year? Next thing you know, they're going to do a Voltron movie.
Yeah, I was afraid that might be going past ye olde line, but nonetheless! I can't help but feel a beloved portion of my childhood is being...abused by Hollywood.
Yes Thundercats,Speed racer and Voltron are coming back.
Unfortunately those movies are going to be produced to be A) For teh Kiddies: with poop jokes like the ones in the trailer you just watched, Remixed music of famous bands like the one in those awful Kids Bop B) For the “Actual” generation this option includes references to famous actors, brands and other crap also now Directors and Writers like to mix everything with Teen/Adult situations so the public can feel somehow related,obviously they keep ignoring the fact that the people that is going to watch Speed racer are the fans of the long time series and they only beg it is like a hour and half episode which is the best you can expect.
Normally the option "B" is directed by some Ahole with issues, scary issues.
i am not usually the kind of guy to hate on things, but holy flying wangballs is that going to be a terrible movie. what the fuck were they thinking? jesus
All I could think when I saw the trailer for this was "Jason Lee? NOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Between this and Underdog, he's undone all the good will amassed from My Name is Earl. Damn Scientology, why'd you have to ruin such a cool guy?
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna have to go watch Mallrats to get this taste of failed potential (mixed with a little CG rodent dook) out of my mouth.
This is like if you just impaled your foot with a nail, and bathed in broken glass mixed with kerosene, and someone just like you on fire, and you go ask someone to hose you off, and all they have is lemon juice and salt, and they hose you off anyway. Instead of just getting more mad, you just laugh.
I mean, a human being can only get so upset over their childhood.
I'm going to go see this movie and laugh obnoxiously every time Jason Lee yells ALVIIIIIIIIIN while all the hip skater kids are like DUDE ALVIN SHOULD BE MORE EXTREME AND SAY DUDE MORE LOL HOLY SHIT HE JUST ATE HIS BROTHER'S POOP THIS IS LIKE JACKASS ONLY BETTER LOL
Dude, don't even joke about that. Mallrats was the movie that made Jason Lee's career as an actor. Before that he was just some (hilarious) asshole skateboarder.
