Me and the Chipmunks

Me: "Hi, i reserved a copy of the Alvin and the Chipmunks soundtrack."

Female Cashier: "Okay. What is your name?"

Me: "Alvin."

*weird stare*

-.-

THE soundtrack

Of course, this is in tandem with the launch of the Chipmunks movie. Have you watched it yet?

THE movie

If you haven't heard of the Chipmunks, you probably live in Mars or something. Well, the combination is just killer. Small, furry, cute, and they sing.

But don't expect too much either. The relatively more familiar 2nd cartoon series in 1983 (just a little history) didn't really boast of a fantastic storyline or cool animations. Well, i said it was in the '80s didn't i? Anyway, the idea of talking chipmunks in the family was such a kick back then.

So this big screen adaptation is just a nostalgic blast to the past, to reminisce about the joker Alvin, the intellectual Simon, and the sweety Theodore. The movie got a little boring midway, but the overall cute factor should pull it through just enough.

Who can ever forget the ear-piercing, tonsil-wrecking "ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLVIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!"

Well i can't. ;)
