"Alvin" Scores $45 Million
 

Alvin and the Chipmunks, a CGI/live-action hybrid feature based on the classic cartoon characters, opened in second place at North American box offices over the weekend with a much-higher than expected gross of $45 million, the Associated Press reports. Disney's Enchanted took in $6 million for a cumulative gross of $92.2 million.

Hmm, probably because so many of us baby boomers fondly remember the squeaky-voiced little rodent. I'm planning to see it, and I rarely go to the movies ... :>

As usual, the critics poo-poo'd it. That must mean it's a really good movie!

I dont know.....trailer looks like a typical pre teeny weeny quickie CGI movie.

I dont want to see alvin as CGI.I ll keep him in my heart as classic animation.

I still have my alvin & The Chipmunks LP's :)

I can wait for it to come out on DVD.
