Fun fact: the real reason Uncle Ian didn't appear in The Road Chip was because at the time of filming David Cross was hospitalized with severe back pain from carrying the entire franchise.
"Alvin stop having shenanigans on my back"
"Simon your IQ level is too heavy"
"Theodore your so dumy thicc m8 xdd"
He was also really very uncomfortable working on the sets of Chipwrecked and decided to join the three girls who lost to the Chipettes in their group of "Mean Dancin' Gals who only wear primary colored clothing" instead
Nothing in cinema history has ever bothered me more than the fact that not only are the glasses Dave just finds laying around to give to Simon his EXACT prescription, but that the SANTA DOLL that he takes them from is wearing PRESCRIPTION LENSES for NO DISCERNIBLE REASON
Toy story 5
I just watched all the movies today (except the 4th one) AND THIS WAS WHAT I FIRST THOUGHT!!! WHAT??? DAVE ARE YOU SECRETLY AN EYE DOCTOR? Just howwwww
For real!!! As a kid with glasses I was like “LITERALLY HOW”
The Santa doll needed to see you better (:
I truly thought it was just Magnifying glass, and it was just lucky that it was a close prescription, but that’s just a theory an Alvin and the chipmunks theory!
this franchise was one of my guilty pleasures i had as a kid cause i couldn't handle how cheesy it was even for my 8 year old self but i was too fixated with the chipettes 😭
Felt like a fever dream
@@mountainsquirrel15 fr i don't even remember the plot at all only nightcores with the chipmunks on UA-cam
Sameee
@@gumi1098 why did you say "Sameee" eight times
I only remember the plot of one the movies “chipwrecked” and the whole plot was that the chipmunks get stranded on an island and they have to get off
“Christnas Dont Be Late“ was a literal bop. Change my mind.
Can’t. Your factually correct.
I hear it every year on the radio when they start playing Christmas music in November
I am ready to watch Alvin and the Chipmunks on Disney+ at Chrostmas
Yesss thooo

Are we just gonna ignore that the 2nd chipmunk movie was filmed at a real high school
I'm sorry what

It's been 4 days, bro is going to hell and back for that timestamp
If I was a chipmunk, I’d date Simon. 100%
I think Simon and Donatello (from tmnt 2012) were my gay awakening

@@Tomio_ oh bitch you are just like me. nobody has ever talked abt how fine donnie was i am sobbing
Bro same

No but can we talk about how the chipettes are icons and deserve their own movie. It’s not just that their singing is better, or that their performances are flashier, or that they actually change outfits. It’s also the their sibling bond and their supportive personalities making them the most generous and kind hearted of the cast. The 4th movie casting them aside but still make them steal the chipmunks fame literally makes it facts.
THANK YOU
frrrrr
Brittany is a f**cking legend and a icon no can can deny
@@bellsgotitnowft Yes! She is queen!
i feel like the sibling bond goes for both trios (alvin is jus more annoying) BUT GOD THE OUTFIT CHANGE YOU ARE SO RIGHT
i love the old chipmunks media but by god do they never fucking wear anything better than their hoodie-dresses
I’ll never get the Theodore hate. I always loved him so much 🥺
But i get the love for Simon
@@isacocca3187 nahh jeanette solos
I hate him
@@isacocca3187 love, simon
You can’t look into those soulless eyes and tell me he’s innocent
Uncle Ian was my first exposure to David Cross, now I can’t see him any other way.
Same. Btw he was in the kung Fu panda movies
@@badulgumm5458 HE WAS???
@@Lucyfer_Morningstxr If I remember correctly
I can’t watch arrested development without seeing him at uncle Ian
Still seeing him as uncle Ian even in Pitch Perfect 2
Think this is the most psychotic collection of reviews thus far, hell of an achievement honestly
And they’re all reviews for a game about talking chipmunks of all things, LMFAO.

@@Dressup_Doll Wait, sorry, I can’t remember why I typed that comment.
1:50 “I want Alvin to hang from a rope hanging on a tree…”
“I wanna marry Simon…”
“I want Theodore to go to the war and never come back.”
So inspirational
I also got positive vibes out of that review.
THEY DID THEODORE DIRTY 😭😭😭😭
I remember watching the the first movie with my cousin’s when I was younger. And after all these years, I still have no idea how those chipmunks blew up so quickly?! 🤷♀️
They're talking animals
Yeah but you would think that would get boring real quick.
It’s probably all the popular song covers at the time
they're singing chipmunks
I mean, it WAS like the third wave of the chipmunks phenomenon. You had the original songs and cartoons from the 60s iirc, then the 80s and 90s cartoon, and then these movies plus that Nickelodeon 3d animated cartoon show
my childhood came back in full force when you said “the squeakuel”
The chipettes are iconic. You cant change my mind
Jesse McCartney (Theodore): Robin/Nightwing in Young Justice as well as Roxas and Ventus in Kingdom Hearts
Justin Long (Alvin): Matt in Live Free or Die Hard as well as Justin Redman in Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story
Matthew Gray Gubler (Simon): Dr. Spencer Reid in Criminal Minds
*They couldn't have picked a more based trio to voice iconic characters*
I had a whole ass phase as a kid where I would exclusively listen to chipmunk versions of popular songs.
same I forgot about that 😭
Oh God....same
nightcore fans:
I would love to see you cover:
1) Diary of a Wimpy Kid trilogy
2) Madagascar
3) The Bad Guys (Dreamworks)
Yes
Camp rock!
I know it sucks but also include the fourth one
@@cheezit2398 what about the Disney one
@@Angela-un5vv and that one too
Theodore and Simon were always fine , I want Alvin to go trough some tourtore
Yes
I want to listen to his chipmunk screams
@@uselessgay2341 you made me cackle in a high pitch and i sounded like i was one of the chipmunks
so we're not gonna talk about ian threatening to barbecue the chipettes when they tried to quit on him?
Honestly I'm just glad this era ended because I don't think I would survive another wave of UA-cam Chipmunk remixes
Me neither, but I lived for them when I was younger
wait imagine mitski chipmunk remixs
@@elijah-cm4us Thinking about it makes me wanna put bleach in my ears
My mother would HATE another Chipmunk era. She absolutely despises their voices.
@@elijah-cm4us NO
Proudly want to say I used to have a crush on Simon and I LOVED the Chipettes with my entire body
Matthew Gray Gubler being the voice of Simon was the strangest thing I heard in this video and I knew this information since 4 months ago
I love that the genuine consensus in regards to all these chipmunk movies is “fuck everyone except Simon and Uncle Ian”.
this was my childhood. theodore was my favourite and i dont understand why people hate him.
Yeah Theodore gets a lot of hate for some reason
Right😭
Yup
i was so obsessed with the alvin and the chipmunks triology that at one point i remember watching all the movies 5/6 different times on new years week alone while simultaneously watching the 1983 series
i hate The Road Chip btw
These are such comfort movies for me, like I enjoy them unironically😭
Definitely on my list of silly movies I'll always love no matter what anyone says.
i feel like owl house fans will love this so at 3:58 that is the wendie malick who voices eda. She also voice bojack horseman's mom and Burdine from Bratz.
EXCUSE ME THAT'S WENDY MALICK?
LMAO IMAGINE EDA SAYING THAT
Burdine???

7. Eloise movies
5:51 this but with the bad romance by lady gaga cover featuring both the chipmunks and the chipettes. that shit goes HARD

IT DOES
@@AUGGUH1 THE PART WHEN THEY HARMONIZE OMFG 😩
IKR?!
No no no no plss , it's atrocious and goes against everything has done it should be burnt to hell and eternity.
This cover is made by the devil himself and you can't convince me otherwise.
This us unironically the best thing I've ever heard, we need a full version
Please the MASSIVE crush that I had on Simon 😭
you literally have no idea how much i wished I was the purple chipette when I was younger 😭
I would literally pay to see all these movies with the original voice actors real voices, it would be the ONLY difference, I mean they nailed the harmonies and they deserve credit! PLEASE TELL ME IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO WANTS THIS!!!
My only experience with this franchise is an ancient Christmas album we listened to while putting up our tree when i was growing up that predates these movies by a landslide, watching Chipwrecked on a plane once in 2013 and promptly forgetting all of it, and have a mini crisis when I found out much later that Matthew Gray Gubler voices Simon. Needless to say, watching these reviews with no context was wild.
Oh! I think I also saw an animated Halloween special with them where Theodore is a werewolf or something.
Omg I think we had the same Chipmunk Childhood. I too only listened to an ancient Chipmunks christmas CD and watched Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet the Wolfman (although I was slightly obsessed with that movie at one point and watched it like every night for a short time period.) These movies came out when I was a child, but they seemed to cringey and the 3d animation too uncanny valley for me at that point so I've never seen them, and just from that clip she played of the cheeseball song, I don't think my current adult ears could handle watching them lol.
Oh yeah I saw that Werewolf movie
The villain from the fourth should marry the principal from the second.
3:55 is that Eda??
I swear, Wendie Malick is everywhere
I fr watched chipwrecked 10 times at a daycare once and I VIVIDLY remember French Simon. All of the reviews did a squiggly brain to me
Simonè
When I was way little like maybe 5 years old or something my grandma would play chipmunk music when I would take a bath(not the stuff from the movies but you get the point) I also remember watching the chipmunk movies a LOT but hey I did that with every movie. I wasn't sure if I liked the movie series or not when I was younger because I don't remember being overly obsessed with it. But one things for sure I loved the chipmunk covers specifically the ones of chipwrecked and I remember vibing to them and enjoying my child life. Present day I want this franchise to burn tho I listen to sped up songs, high pitched singing teenage chipmunks crosses the line. Also chipcest exists
I'm sorry, the chipmunks were voiced by WHOM?!
I didn’t know about all that Theodore hate! He’s just so innocent and sweet 😭
I relate to the Zoe review so damn much.
I had no string feelings towards her as a 7 year old, but now that socially isolated, deranged, borderline murderous and probably touch starved woman can meet me anytime
I think everyone has had a crush on simon at some point
Not everyone but most.
Simon was the layout
I thought Alvin was the famous one yknow consider Simon is the nerd one lmao
I thought I was the only one
Simon was my smart guy type awakening
Man, the nostalgia I hold for these movies is crazy 😭😭
2:33 sorry did dr eggman write that review
Im pretty sure eggman says Rodent's very often
Theodore is the best chipmunk. And the furries were in live chat😭
Wait seriously!?
@@mountainsquirrel15 yes😭
@@mickles690 what did they sayyy
Can you pleeeeeaaaase do Madagascar movie reviews next? They are movies many of us grew up with but they’re all surprisingly divisive, so there’s likely be tons of variety and make for a fun video. Plus, it’d have Moto Moto in it. *And you know you can’t resist Moto Moto*
you don't know how much relieved i am to know that i wasn't the only one crushing on simon
Okay- The crush on Simon carried on to now except I don't have feelings for a chipmunk, but rather the type that Simon is?? I don't understand how to describe it
Me trying to be hip with the kids like: 0:15
Alvin and the Chipmunks fun fact (well not so fun for our former DDR brothers): They predicted the fall of the Berlin Wall. In one 1988 episode of Alvin and the Chipmunks, the gang appeared in a dream sequence in which they find themselves near the Berlin Wall and using the power of music to tear it down to help reunite a family...the wall was torn down the following year with the help of David Hasselhoff
5:37 i found this comment funny and then a second later I stopped because that fanfic definitely exists somewhere
Looking back, I think Simon was one of my first fictional crushes.
You are aware he's a chipmunk, right?
the chipettes are my icons
You should make a Smurfs movie review
I second this
Oh no I think I got my gothic/hippie awakening from those weird gray Smurf twins from the second
@@mountainsquirrel15 SAME 😭
Good idea
@@mountainsquirrel15 I don't blame you. Vexi was hot.
So you're telling me, favorite boy Simon is play by my favorite Criminal Minds boy Spencer Reid....
THE STARS ARE ALIGNING YO!
The Alvin and the Chipmunks movies series was seriously the bi awakening that we all needed.
These movies made up my early childhood so it’s nostalgic but I genuinely forgot the plot of them
I'm concerned of the amount of ppl who have a crush on Simon💀
Ik, like isn't he supposed to be a kid?!
Look at your profile I'm concerned about you either
@@ilozone8327 ?
@@Muffinn_Cakes I think he's a teenager. He is in high school (West Eastman high)
You need to do a Halloween town movies review video. Some of them are amazing lol.
Agreed
yes please
“I want Claire to become a toaster and be sold to Jeff Bezos.” Is the most terrifying thing I’ve ever heard.
I'm trying to get it please help-
Yeah no, Simon was my romantic awakening when I was a baby. He was the start of the smart tall guy with glasses infatuation, followed by Echo in the Clone Wars TV show which integrated badass fighter into the smart/tall combo, then Donatello from the CGI series which integrated wits and sarcasm into the mix,
And now as an adult, I have come full circle and have finally found my perfect animated man that I am romantically and sexually attracted to:
He is extremely tall, witty, a genius, and a badass fighter
He is: Tech, from the Bad Batch cartoon.
And he also vaguely looks like shit, but you get used to the receded hairline 💀
Wtf-
LOL
I WAS SHOCKED WHEN I SAW THAT MATTHEW GRAY GULBER PLAYED THE VOICE OF SIMON LIKE HE WAS ON CRIMINAL MINDS TOO
SAMEEE. I FOUND OUT FROM HIS VOGUE QUESTIONS VIDEO AND NOT THIS ONE BUT STILL I WAS SO SURPRISED
Watching this after binging Owl House and I just about broke my neck turning around when I heard Wendie Maleck talk
Everyone's just loving Simon lmao
Just want to say that the last two reviews were perfectly ordered and I appreciated it
Even as a 5 year old, I was so bothered by those BLOODY GLASSES.
6:47
Looks like Faith wanted people to suffer INTENSELY 😂
As a kid, I was appalled at the Theodore slander. As an adult…I’m not so sure
liking Simon is just falling for MGG's charm (even through such a high pitch), as I imagine a lot of ladies have before the films
When the first movie came out, we watched it so many times, to the point where I would recite it from memory for my little brother during bedtime. Including songs and onomatopoeias.
“I think uncle Ian is how I envision god” *I think I did when I was younger too. No idea why.*
There must be a reason
When I see simon, all I can think of is that one buff Simon image

Why is everyone crushing on a skinny chipmunk that wears a blue hoodie and glasses?
Idk, better ask them
@@ninodesbordesofficialhe's hot
Alvin and the chipmunks was literally 90% of my childhood, I watched chipwreck way to many times when I was five and just came back to it now, I still love it
Edit: also, Simon was always my favorite, I never simped for him, or anyone, I just liked the fact that he was smart and his blue shirt
god i unabashedly love this series of videos please never stop joey
1:34 I had a crush on Simon when I was younger. So either, yes we all did or we are both just weird
Even to this day, I love the Alvin and the Chipmunks movies. I genuinely don't know why, but I just always have. I don't really understand the hate towards them. Well, some of them, I do.
3:22
Too many big words for me to understand
3:05 it's 24 frames of Nick!
Does anyone here remember the animated movies? They’re so under appreciated
The Frankenstein and Werewolf ones where my childhood. I kinda wondered what happened to the Monster obsessed Alvin.
Is it bad that I still remember the lyrics to the songs of the werewolf one?
I have vague memories of watching a DVD of the Halloween ones
the only one I remember watching is one where there's a creepy neighbor and Theodore turns into a werewolf, I don't think the others were dubbed in my country sadly
I watched both of those as a kid. I appreciate them more than these films now. It kinda bothers me now that the movie designs of the chipmunks don’t look much like their original cartoon counterparts.
I would love it if the Squeakquel was filmed at my high school
My childhood crush for Simon was what awakened my love for smart men with glasses
Same😭😭
The quote “Simon is racist noooooo!!!!!” Was the funniest quote
Y’all I loved those movies and I will never condone Theodore slander in this household
"You threatened to climb inside of him and build a nest"
Bro what 😭
"chipmunk comphet" is not something I was expecting to hear today
7:16 This is a movie I'll actually pay to see in theaters
When I was 8 I was so so obsessed with Alvin, I like Simon and Theodore too but for some reason I liked Alvin the most despite him being a brat and had barely any character development.... That probably explain a lot why I like brat character and make extensive hc about them now huh
I LITERALLY JUST BINGE WATCHED THESE MOVIES LIKE AN HOUR AGO
LMFAO the purple one singing sos was also the coolest thing I’d ever seen
The bar scene is road chip was filmed on a local Conyers, GA restaurant I went to often with my family.....and right infront the local voodoo shop in Conyers....fun times
I loved the girl chipmunks outfits so much in the second movie though
okay but jeanette’s cover of sos by Rihanna is the only version I will listen to, it’s a crime it’s so short tho 😔
True! And in the extended version she is not the main singer! C'mon she deserved that one
4:04 What is going on with Theodore's eyebrows????
Theodore "The rock" Seville
true bisexuality is having had a crush on both simon and jeanette as a kid
Man some people really have it out for Alvin and Theodore lol
Also I wholeheartedly agree with the voice acting thing. No one will be able to tell that Roxas is Theodore after the voice pitch. Fox could have picked literally anyone with the slightest bit of VA experience to voice the Chipmunks and no one would notice.
"I want Theodore to go to war and not come back" well if it means a quicker victory for us to reunite with our southern brothers then by all means, send him right away! Him crossing into our territory would justify use of our nuclear weapons. And if Ian learned from fellow bald villain Gru, he'd be a genius in no time. I mean I'd love to steal the Moon so I could eat all of its cheese
as a child , i had a crush on simon. as an almost-adult im obsessed with matthew gray gubler. coincidence? i think not.
1:29 Alvin doll: clearly speaking Japanese
Dave: it's spanish!
Simon and Theodore are the best

@@ninodesbordesofficial Yea? Do you have a problem with that?
