The Chipmunks

When I was little I had the Chipmunks record (remember those – records?). The record included the Chipmunks singing “Happy Birthday.” I loved that crazy record and I made sure it got played every year on my birthday.

Over the years I forgot about the Chipmunks, but when I saw the preview for the new Alvin and the Chipmunks movie it all came flooding back. I knew I had to see it. I was a little nervous about the new animation style, but it turned out that I still loved it. Those Chipmunks crack me up!

The DVD came out today and it’s that much fun and more! Here’s some of the features it includes:

· Digital Copy download feature (this is the “new hotness” – it allows viewers to quickly and easily download a digital version of the film to a Mac® or Windows-based PC computer and then transfer to select portable video devices including an iPod® and/or iPhone™.)

· Behind the Nuts Munkumentary featurette

· Chip-Chip-Hooray! Chipmunk History featurette

· Hitting the Harmony featurette

· “Witch Doctor” Music Video

· Two exclusive iTunes® music downloads – “Get Munk’d (DeeTown Remix)” and “Get You Goin’ (DeeTown Funk Remix)”

· Inside Look at Horton Hears a Who

Synopsis:
Struggling songwriter Dave Seville (Jason Lee) opens his home to a talented trio of chipmunks named Alvin, Simon and Theodore, they quickly become overnight music sensations. But when a greedy record producer (David Cross) tries to exploit the musical ensemble, Dave must use a little human ingenuity—and a lot of ’munk mischief—to get his furry family back before it’s too late!
