Alvin and the Chipmunks 2 Trailer

Published by Jeff Leins on: June 30th, 2009

20th Century Fox has released a trailer for Alvin and the Chipmunks 2.  (I refuse to refer to this movie as “The Squeakquel” as Fox insists in the awful title.)  It’s just about as awful as it sounds.  There’s high-pitched singing, CGI rodents, and the Chipettes.  What, no eating feces this time?

The original Alvin and the Chipmunks made $217 million in the U.S., which means another one was inevitable. Jason Lee returns to sell another piece of his dignity as their owner, Dave Seville.  While the rodents are all still voiced by celebrities for some reason (can you even tell?)  The chipmunks are: Justin Long (Alvin), Matthew Gray Gubler (Simon), and Jesse McCartney (Theodore).  The Chipettes are: Anna Faris, Christina Applegate, and Amy Poehler.

This is all great news if you have kids or time to waste.  Watch the “trailer” below:
