What if the Alvin tetralogy was directed by Adam Sandler?

Why it all four films suck more

1. Encyclopedia-style pagesIt insults the original source material.
   1. Too much adult humor.
      1. Simon eats Brittany and Theodore's poop.
   2. The Chipmunks and Chipettes' outfit used in the film is completely unfaithful. Example:
      1. Simon and Janette didn't wear glasses.
      2. Theodore wears a similar outfit to Skate Lad's while Elanor's hair and outfit had same color schemes as Rope Girl's, which is a Teamo Supremo reference.
   3. None of the Chipmunk songs return in the film.
   4. Dave Seville and Miss Miller are totally absent in the tetralogy
2. Clare is a terrible replacement of Dave.
3. Adam Sandler did a horrible job voicing Alvin, Simon, and Theodore.
4. The pop-culture references and product placements are completely shoehorned.
   1. The scenes also had clips from Family Guy and Robot Chicken, which felt pointless.
5. The films add new chipmunks that didn't appear in the previous incarnations: Toby, Zoe, and Miles.
   1. Miles wears glasses and a patriotic version of a Superman outfit. Also a Teamo Supremo reference.
6. The gore feels out of place for the Alvin film.
7. The mid-credits scene of the first film shows Ian being carried by the paramedics, which is disturbing.
8. The CGI is poor and is similar to the Video Brinquedo one.
9. Terrible direction by Adam Sandler.
10. The Chiphuman babies at the end of the fourth film look disgusting.

Good Qualities

1. 1. Ian is an only likeable character.

Trivia

• Toby, Miles and Zoe were originally going to be portrayed by live-action humans, but they are changed into CGI chipmunks, due to executive meddling.
