Is the pikmin community afraid of new ideas, I think they're a bunch of sissies

It's been so long I feel since I completed a game in my backlog I feel. Anyways, Sam & Max is a series I had never heard of until fairly recently. I think I got hooked by their simple, yet loveable designs. They are just great characters to follow. The game is just full of great moments that made me laugh out loud. Prob one of the funniest games I've played. Of course it is also a puzzle game; didn't find too hard so wasn't that bad. The best strengths of this game are def the dynamic and interactions which are great. Happy I got to try this out and will def try out the other two entries in the mean time. I really love Sam & Max with all my heart. and I mean that.

I worked on this game and this is one of the best experiences I've ever had the experience working on. Thank you god

If you’ve been friends with me within the past two years, you’ll know that I have oddly strong opinions about the Alvin and the Chipmunks movies.

It all began during the 2021 holiday season when I decided to rewatch the movies, not anticipating the can of worms that would burst open in my brain — for the sake of focusing on the holiday theme, we’ll just be diving into the first one and all of its ridiculousness.

Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007) follows three chipmunks, Alvin (Justin Long), Simon (Matthew Gray Gubler) and Theodore (Jesse McCartney) as they go from living in the forest to finding a new home with their human songwriter-turned-adoptive-father, Dave (Jason Lee).

The first scene features the three chipmunks storing nuts in their tree. We can tell they’re down on their luck, because they’re singing Bad Day by Daniel Powter. I cannot make this up. Even if you never watch this movie again, I strongly encourage you to listen to this cover.

The facial expression I made upon first hearing it remains indescribable, but I’d be lying if I said it didn’t go kind of hard. There's something absurd about sitting down at 1:30 a.m. and taking notes on a film featuring three chipmunks sadly singing pop music, though I found it to be oddly comforting. Yes, I was having a bad day. I saw myself in those Chipmunks, and I think I should be worried.

They end up at Dave’s house after their home is used as a Christmas tree for JETT Records. Dave initially kicks them out, but he discovers something special about them: They’re exploitable. They win him over with their rendition of Only You by The Platters, and honestly, it won me over at first, too. I was ready to believe they had produced an unironically good cover, but I judged it too soon. How could they both make me cringe and give me chills in a matter of seconds? Such is the duality of munk, I suppose.

Dave realizes they’re what he needs to become a serious songwriter. In a pre-sleep rush of motivation, Dave writes The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don’t Be Late).

Soon, the chipmunks’ careers take off and they’re picked up by the chief executive of JETT Records — a.k.a. the backbone of these movies — Ian Hawke (David Cross). He makes them perform music that’s not their style, rendering me speechless in the process. Hearing a chipmunk sing the lines “Iced out, rocks hot / Droppin' dollars, ladies holler "Hey" / Gotta get that cream” is a scene that never quite leaves your mind.

The movie ends with Dave finally admitting that the three chipmunks are his family after repeatedly denying it for most of the film. I think the movie pushes the idea that Dave’s reluctance to say so is because of his commitment issues, when it should be the fact that they are literal rodents and he is a human man. I guess you could consider this a found family story, so if that’s up your alley, this could be a new fave.

Unfortunately, this movie had many moments I found embarrassingly relatable and kind of funny. Watching Dave deal with the mess of his life in an unusually calm “this is fine” sort of way hits differently now than it ever did before. It’s worth a rewatch this holiday season, if you can withstand a little absurdity.

Why. Why I am doing this...OK...I can't hide from this...time to start...Alvin August...


It starts off with three crappy CGI Chipmunks, Alvin played by Justin Long, Simon played by Matthew Gray Gubler, and Theodore played by Jesse McCartney, singing "You Had a Bad Day" until their tree gets chopped down and sent to L.A. after JETT Records ordered it as a Christmas tree. Because, I guess this is a Christmas movie. Now, the CG for the Chipmunks is pretty good, but the redesigns suck and they're way too small. Struggling songwriter and composer David Seville, Jason Lee, engages in a pretty bad exposition scene with his girlfriend, Claire Wilson, Cameron Richardson. His demo is rejected by executive Ian Hawke, his college roommate played by David Cross. David Cross gives out an amazing performance.


So Dave gets vengeance by stealing their muffies! OH, THE KARMA! OH, THE KARM - wait, this is the stupidest revenge I have ever seen in a big budget movie. He wastes the muffins by throwing them in the trash, and he throws out all of his music equipment. The Chipmunks, who snuck into the muffin basket, raid Dave's food cabinet full of product placements and Dave discovers them after Alvin farts in his face. Speaking of which, this entire damn movie is FILLED with immature potty humor. Dave, who is a jerk throughout this entire film, throws them out into the rain. However, once they sing, Dave gains interest in them even though they just FUCKING SANG TO HIM.


Dave then makes a deal with the Chipmunks to sing songs he writes in exchange for shelter. Dave tries to present the Chipmunks to Ian, but they get stage fright. Alvin doesn't have stage fright. After Dave gets fired at his job because the Chipmunks drew Theodore's butt on his charts, Dave gets home to the trashed house. Simon eats Theodore's shit. Yes, I wrote that right...also, they show Alvin eating the crap in the trailer. The Munks ruin Dave's date with Claire, and so, they go to Ian's mansion and get him to sign a deal.


The Chipmunks quickly become internationally successful. When Douchebag Dave, concerned for their well-being, insists that the Chipmunks are too young to handle fame, Ian convinces them that Dave is holding them back. After Dave becomes more of a jackass, the Chipmunks choose to live with Ian, whose only interest is profiting off the Chipmunks’ success. Once the Chipmunks arrive at Ian's mansion, he spoils them with candy and toys, and they set off on a nationwide coast-to-coast tour, in which Ian decides to exploit them by overwork their asses.


With Claire's help, Dave is allowed into the concert; the Chipmunks see Dave and decide to sabotage the show. Ian locks the Chipmunks in a cage and prepares to take them on their European world tour, escaping in his limousine with Dave in pursuit, but the Chipmunks have already escaped into Dave's car, replacing themselves with stuffed animal decoys. They make it back home, Alvin causes the lights to go off, and Dave screams "AAAAAALVIIIIIN!!!" Each and everytime he says it, it sounds pretty sucky.


So yeah, this movie sucks. The plot is stupid, the redesigns are weird, the acting is bland, the voices are just sped up, and of course, POOP JOKES AND POTTY HUMOR. Next, I'll review the Squeakuel - God, help me.


Do you think people who play this game know of digimon yokai watch and shin megami tensei. Yea I didn't think so

If only this game crossed over with hello neighbor. Imaging the amount of hot sex scenes? Anyways this game is very hot and sexy and better than porn. The next characters make me very horny. 10/10

Has a "retard" slur and has a trans joke that goes on for 10 minutes. Straight into the trash but it makes a lot of sense why gamers think this is the best jrpg.
