Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked
Alvin and The Chipmunks are a proprietary asset that the studios will simply never let go of. This is because these chipmunks sell like hot cakes, especially when it comes to children and during the ...
Musical Movies
Elvis
I grew up with grandparents who loved Elvis so I was pretty familiar with his music. Add that to the fact that I am a huge Baz Luhrmann fan and a Tom Hanks fan and this was always going to be a movie ...
