Jason Lee is David Seville in "Alvin & The Chipmunks" (Christmas 2007)

From the folks that brought us the Garfield movies... now we have Alvin, Simon, and Theodore headed for the big screen!

Heaven help us all.

Man, Jason Lee will take any crap job they throw at him now, won't he? Between this and the voice of Underdog, I'm not sure which is worse. Unless, he's doing this because he's got his own kids. I guess that would be an OK reason.

I'd rather see Jason Mewes and the Teletubbies.

As long as he continues doing other things too and doesn't follow Eddie Murphy's path of shit.

It's the "gangsta" look for the chipmunks that raises this from "film event" to "Oscar quality epic."

Indeed. Theodore also looks daft with sunglasses on.
Simon was the nerdy, brainy one IIRC, Alvin was the troublemaker.

They look more like RUN D.M.C. than the Chipmunks that I grew up with. Anybody else get the feeling theres gonna be lots of rapping chipmunks in this movie?
