Twentieth Century Fox’s official caption for the above image is “Theodore, Alvin, and Simon prepare to give a special Christmas gift to Dave Seville.” A more accurate caption would be “The fat one, Alvin, and the smart one annoy the fuck out of you for 90 minutes. Also, that reminds me: How fucking pathetic are David Cross and Jason Lee right now?”

Anyway, okay, on to it: The first couple of minutes of I Am Legend are up online, albeit in a quality so shitty it’ll likely make your eyes bleed.

That’s probably the biggest movie this week, but Juno, whether it deserves it or not, is getting crazy buzz, and will probably be a huge hit here in Portland. Then there’s The Perfect Holiday, Redacted, and Alvin and the Chipmunks, The Last Winter, and Romance & Cigarettes. (Huh. Lots of shitty movies this week.)

Also, because why the hell not, Quentin Tarantino thinks that Lindsay Lohan is “one of the best actresses in Hollywood.” Huh.

Umm, pretty sure that Alvin movie is for kids. And it's supposed to annoy the fuck out of you. That's what kids' movies do to adults, generally speaking. So cut Jason Lee and David Cross a break; it doesn't make them pathetic to be in a movie that they can't swear in.
