This video ironically demonstrates that even the most superficial commercial media can appear profound when stripped of its gimmicks. It is a sharp exercise in finding intellectual resonance where none was ever intended.

Deep Dive
I Watched *CHIPWRECKED* With The Voices Pitched Down
Added:Oh, hey, I didn't see you there. Uh, this is awkward. But now that you are here, have you ever tried watching Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked with the voices [music] pitched down? Well, I have and this time around I was surprised to see that there were actual heartfelt moments [music] and themes of maturity and responsibility and also slightly incestuous relationships.
>> Simon.
Simon.
>> Sorry, I actually got shivers a little bit. It wouldn't be a Chipmunk video without a dark twist. This one's been a long time coming, so thank you for your patience. I hope you enjoy the video and if you do, make sure to like and subscribe.
Oh, hell yeah. Yeah, I kind of just forgot what this feels like. It's been 6 months. This is really exciting and honestly, thank god Dave is back. I never thought I'd say this. I actually miss the guy. And in his dark twisted ways, Dave does seem different though.
He seems a little bit more chilled out.
There aren't as many victims around for him to pursue. I don't know, his haircut makes him look less like a psychopath. I really think that these Chipmunks have turned him down another path. And they're already causing trouble. You're going to get somebody to slip and fall and die. They clearly don't care about the repercussions to their actions. Dave has rubbed off on them a little too much. That sounds bad.
Wait, this is so cool. It seems fresh.
It seems like there's a new director and they're having fun.
What's your [ __ ] problem?
Don't look at me like that, pervert.
>> We talked about setting rules, Alvin.
>> I'm sorry.
>> Damn, Dave looks good. Dave for James Bond. Am I crazy? He looks like he's pulled together, but maybe that's his ruse.
>> I'll stop treating you like a child when you start acting like a grown-up.
>> I'll stop acting like a grown-up when you start >> With that song choice, you can tell that this was definitely made when Ellen was still on TV. Does that make sense?
>> I actually have a suggestion.
>> Is he going to be a total buzzkill this movie like he has been?
>> But if you hold the reins too tight, that racehorse is going to fight. You loosen the reins just a little.
>> He'll fly right off the track and crash into the fence.
>> Kids will rise to the occasion if you just show them a little trust.
>> Okay, this is interesting. Like there's something that's happening here, you know, between Alvin and Dave. Simon's in there, too. I might actually like this movie. See, this is the central theme of Chipwrecked, responsibility, even maturity. They're both super important to the success of this movie.
>> Why don't you guys pick a movie? You're old enough to make your own decision.
>> For real, Dave?
>> Absolutely.
>> Aw.
>> Okay, listen, it's a bit spelled out, bit in your face with the whole theme thing. At least they gave me something.
I'm just happy to have anything to work with here, okay? With the first movie, there was barely enough to make that watchable. With the Squeakquel, I'm never watching that nightmare again.
>> I made something for you.
>> Oh, wait, this is adorable. Sorry. Pause for cute Theodore moment.
>> It's soft, so you can sleep in it.
>> No, it's not. What is soft about that thing?
>> I'll put it on after dinner.
>> You could put it on now.
>> Put it on now, and then put it in your pocket later. So, this theme plays into how Alvin is acting nearing the beginning of the movie.
>> All kids are now allowed to play on the adults-only Serenity Deck.
>> Genuinely, Alvin, [ __ ] you. Usually, Alvin is kind of charming. Even though he's annoying, he's kind of fun to watch. Here, he's just kind of insufferable.
>> And, hello, ladies.
>> I like >> Alvin for James Bond. Okay, I'll admit, the Bond outfit's pretty cool.
>> Dave said we're old enough to make our own decisions. He meant we were old >> Oh, god. Alvin, you're going to piss me off this movie, man.
>> He's a kid. He's just trying to have some fun.
Our pelican makes sure that everybody on the ship has fun.
>> Oh, that pervert.
>> [laughter] >> Last thing we want is anyone getting hurt.
>> Aw, he front-shit himself, is what it looks like.
>> A problem with me? Oh, you bet I have a problem with you.
>> What a twist. Good old Uncle Ian. I missed him, too. Even though he was a He was extra in the last one. I don't want to talk about it again.
>> All the single ladies, all the single ladies.
>> And David Cross, he's always great.
David Cross is a professional. Despite being forced to be in a pelican suit for literally the entire movie, David Cross refuses to phone it in. Or at least if he is, I didn't notice.
>> That's what you get for one wrong move.
I'm going straight to Captain Correlli.
You're in my house now. I'll be watching like a hawk.
>> [laughter] >> Ian's plan to kick them off the cruise is made possible by the Chipmunks going rogue and committing underage gambling and getting into dance battles.
I won't be able to use this in the video, but they're playing Party Rock Anthem and it sounds horrifying to me right now, but I'm having a good time. I like that everybody gave them their space on the dance floor. That was very nice.
>> And we have a winner.
>> Oh, is he trying to seduce that woman?
>> Alvin?
>> Who's Alvin, I wonder?
>> Great cover.
>> Simon?
>> I wasn't betting, honest.
>> Winning, sir.
>> Damn! He was probably counting cards.
He's the smart one.
>> I'm sorry for him stepping on my friend's foot or her busted, tired, little dance moves.
>> This calls for a dance-off. Okay, all of you Chipettes stans, this was your [ __ ] right?
Yeah, you like you liked that [ __ ] You were probably Chipmunk hissing at people in the hallways at school.
Was that appropriate for me to see? I need to turn this movie off. My mom would not let me watch this [ __ ] Oh my god. Oh.
Oh, embarrassing.
I do have to say that they had so much room on that dance floor. I even mentioned it beforehand. There was really no reason for them to get that close to the other group of girls.
They're kind of in the wrong here, but then, you know, the other girls did escalate. I'm going to say it's the Chipettes' fault. The The craziest part of the dance battle is they designed their clothes themselves for it.
Speaking of clothing you can wear on your body, in the last Chipmunks video I made a terrible error. I made fun of Zachary Levi for wearing this stupid shirt because I didn't know what Woot meant. Thank you to everybody in the comments who had a midlife crisis explaining to me that it was gamer talk from back in their day. I decided there was only one thing that I could do to make up for my mistake. We're bringing Woot back, baby. I made merch and you can get it right now at woot.store.
That's w00t.store.
This design also comes in internet blue.
This hoodie that I've been wearing in the video, it's available right now in red, blue, and green. Not a fan of Chipmunk references? Want a more deep cut David on Demand reference? How about Zippy's cigarette hoodie? For when you're feeling like Pete Davidson and you really need a cigarette right now.
Give me the part. Give me the part. The Home 2 starring me.
I just need a [ __ ] I need a [ __ ] cigarette. All of these designs were made in collaboration with my very talented artist friend LimeTime.
Absolutely zero AI was used in the making of these designs and it's a really great way to support me if you've enjoyed these videos or if you're a fan of the channel. I'll be live streaming right after this video premieres in order to shout you guys out if you order something. I know times are tough right now, at least for me, so don't feel obligated. This is just a cool thing that I've always wanted to try out. All of the links for the store and for our social medias will be in the description below. Okay, now back to Chipwrecked.
>> It would be easy for me to take my trusty old Swiss Army knife.
>> What are you doing with a pocket knife?
>> What's pocket knife?
>> Where would he fit the pocket knife? A pocket knife for them is like a giant knife for us.
>> So, I could have >> It's an actual size pocket knife. I was expecting him to pull out a tiny little pocket knife.
>> Need I remind you Dave is watching us?
>> Simon, the poor guy hasn't had a moment's peace since he met us.
>> He hasn't had any time to kidnap people.
>> Shane three two one.
>> He's magic? How did he do that? The funny thing is I was expecting the Chipmunks to be shipwrecked by like big storm or an iceberg or something, but in reality it's a lot dumber than that.
>> Hey kid, that's a nice looking kite.
>> Would kites be allowed? Cuz you let that [ __ ] go. You like dumped in an ocean.
Not the poop kind.
You guys should have tied it off to like Dave's chair, so anybody goes it's him.
Oh, good.
No way.
No. Why wasn't that kid in the air? I like this gag. Makes zero sense, but I'm a big fan.
>> [screaming and groaning] >> He's probably thinking, "My retirement plan." He probably makes so much money off of them.
What are you going to do with that?
>> You want to go hang gliding? Sign up at the excursion desk like everyone else.
>> It's going to be a Dave and Ian adventure. Good god. Two perverts walk into a hang glider hang glider. Did I say that wrong?
Speaking of dumping in the ocean, I'd be [ __ ] myself.
>> I don't think I can make it much longer.
>> Eat the boat.
>> I'm so hungry.
>> Yeah, eat the boat. Let's end this movie early. Eat the boat.
>> An island.
>> They're alive.
>> Why don't we all just relax and have some donuts?
>> I think previously I've said that if you had to eat one, he'd be the best snack.
A lot of meat on them bones. I think we're going to see that come to fruition in this movie. If they can overpower him, then I think they'll have a chance of survival. In the past, Dave has been my enemy. Toby has been my enemy. Aunt Jackie has been my enemy.
>> [clears throat] >> In this movie, my number one op, Theodore.
>> As you can see, the lens concentrates the energy of the sun, thus creating fire.
>> Okay, these are No. What the hell are these magical glasses? You can't just do that. They're going to get eaten so fast. Oh my god, there's probably a boar on that island that's going to just munch them up.
>> Simon makes a fire with his magical prescription fire making glasses. That's cool. And what does Theodore do? He blows it out like a birthday candle.
>> I hate him.
I get he's a kid. I get it. I understand he's the baby of the group. I'm getting mad. He blows the fire out. I must be going crazy here. How have they not ditched this guy? I get it, he's family or whatever, but he's a nuisance.
Alvin, how did you survive on that island for so long? Well, to be honest with you, a cappella.
>> [laughter] >> That looks delicious.
>> Are you planning on sharing that?
>> New profile pic of Alvin looking startled.
>> My acorns.
>> He just referenced his balls.
>> My precious. My precious.
>> [laughter] >> I forgot that half of the fun is hearing the voice actors say some crazy [ __ ] It's at this point that I realize that the deep voices mean absolutely nothing to me anymore. It's rarer that moments like this pop out to me. I've gotten to know these characters with the deep voices, so at this point it feels to like it's just a movie. It's just a normal movie. This is reinforced by the entrance of Zoe.
Oh god. Oh god. It's Epstein. It's Epstein.
Oh, it's Jenny Slate. Okay, cool. You know me. At this point I'd probably twist her deep voice and words into something more sinister and try to provoke something that's maybe demonic or violent in nature. And honestly, I wish that my brain went there, but it didn't. Like this deep voice is normal now. And she seemed like a a normal cool person.
>> Exactly how long have you been here?
>> You know, eight eight or nine um years.
>> She looks great for being on the island for that long. Look at her hair. Her skin looks great.
>> She must have had like 10 years supply worth of sunscreen.
>> I want you to go tell the others.
>> There are others?
>> Can you guys imagine being stuck here for all these years without anybody to talk to?
>> Nobody to talk to, but there's others?
Is this some Wilson [ __ ] Yeah. She's also an artist. Those are well done.
>> Okay.
Hi.
>> Hello.
>> I'm Theodore.
>> Theodore thinks they're real. Why can't I hear them? Says Theodore. Why can't I hear their words? Can you guys hear their words?
>> She's funny.
>> Why am I the only one who can't hear their words? If you had to shoot a chipmunk dead, if you had all of the chipmunks in front of you, and you had to kill one, who would you kill? And let's say them together. Hmm.
3 2 1 Theodore.
I'm glad that we all said that together.
She's cool. I like her.
Oh, that was the last we saw of the green girl. I don't remember her name.
I'm sorry. The joke would have been funnier if I remembered her name.
>> You should put some ice on that.
>> Oh, no, guys. I don't have any ice. I I live there in that tree.
>> We don't have any ice.
>> [ __ ] ice, man. Chipwrecked gets political. A lot of you have been asking me who's my favorite character in these movies. Personally, I don't really think that matters because I hate them all. In my mind, these chipmunks are terrible people. Maybe it's because of their actions, but I have a theory why. I present to you the seven deadly chips.
Each of these chipmunks is represented by one of the seven deadly sins. All of them dip their toes into each other's playing field, but you will get what I mean. Alvin pride. I feel like this one's self-explanatory, but kids a megalomaniac. Brittany is envy. Often gets jealous.
>> I can't believe Jeanette's getting all the attention.
>> Simon is wrath.
Funny to say Simon is wrath, and then have him look like this. Uh, [ __ ] I look like that.
>> [laughter] >> He's usually angry when things aren't going his way or people aren't as smart as him.
>> That is a lot of uptight in a very little package.
>> I'm not uptight.
>> Why did she have to mention his dick size?
It's also just kind of a vibe thing. If you don't get the vibe that I'm going for here, I don't know what to tell you.
Jeanette is greed. Always looking for the finer things in life.
>> Beautiful.
>> Materialistic. Eleanor is sloth. Even though she also has envy, she's actually sloth because the writers were too lazy to make her do anything at all in any of these movies.
>> My precious. My precious.
>> Theodore gluttony. Maybe the most self-explanatory one on this list. God bless his food-loving soul. And no shame, but when you want to eat the life raft that's keeping all of you alive, that's got to be a sin somewhere, right?
You might have a problem.
You might be a redneck. Now, you might be noticing, David, there's only six chipmunks. How can there be seven deadly sins, one per chipmunk, if there's only six chipmunks? And that's where you'd be wrong, because you'd be forgetting about perhaps the most important chipmunk.
>> No, my name is not Simon.
>> What?
>> It is Simone.
>> One, he summoned a gust of wind. Two, that's a different voice actor. He's having some crazy nightmares right now.
He's high as hell. This is like when Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man is getting his powers. Simone is the best part of this movie by far. It's not even close.
Without him, the themes wouldn't land as hard. Now, Simone is the Alvin.
>> I'm not the uptight one. I'm the fun one.
>> you're the uptight one. Exactly. I am dissecting this children's movie like nobody's business. Go me. It wouldn't be as fun to watch.
He just tamed a fish.
He is a charming bastard, and he has a French accent.
I wonder if Alan Tudyk did a breaking down my most iconic characters video interview, if he would ever talk about Simone. Simone highlights a very important aspect that I have not touched until now. The chipmunks and the chipettes are both siblings and dating? We're all anti-chipsest, right? I get it. They're interested in similar things, have similar personalities. There's probably not a lot of options in the talking chipmunk department, but they look the exact same, like they were twins born of the same womb. They share a bedroom. They've bunk beds that are way too big for them.
They share a dad. Like, this can't be legal within the borders of the United States. The courts won't stand for this.
Despite the chipsest, Simone is pretty awesome. He does, however, clearly fell out our last of the seven deadly sins, lust.
Wait, is he >> that it feels less incestuous now that it's Simone? Cuz Simone feels like a genuinely different person. They're unrelated now.
>> Simon.
Simon.
>> Ew. Sorry. I actually got shivers a little bit down my spine. I want to root for them so bad, but it just feels like a step bro step sis situation and I can't get behind that. He is kind of Pepe Le Pew coded, you know? He's very um predatory.
>> Get it.
>> GET IN MY CHAIR.
LOOK INTO MY EYES.
>> If you thought that Matthew Gray Gubler was just a charming person in general, sorry about it, but Alan Tudyk's got him beat. Oh, wow.
Woah, what a move. He just hits a rock.
The camera work too is so fun. I can see why you guys were saying this was the best one. Behind a waterfall, Simone finds a mysterious hidden treasure.
>> Pay to make it up.
>> Oh, it's beautiful.
>> god. He found a chipmunk tiara?
>> Drop it. Drop it.
>> Don't get into a fight. He will tear you limb from limb.
>> I'll go loco on you.
>> Is that okay for him to say? [laughter] >> I know why Dave hasn't come. Cuz he's not even looking.
Alvin.
>> [laughter] >> Look at his face.
>> He's going crazy.
>> He's traumatized.
I couldn't help but think he was having a Vietnam style flashback of all of the times he's done Dave wrong.
And blaming this entire thing on himself. While the chipmunks deal with the internal battle that comes from dating your sibling, Uncle Ian and Dave are having their own adventure.
>> We're going to head inland. We're climbing to the top of that mountain and we'll be able to get a better view of the island.
>> That's your idea? Why don't you just walk the perimeter? They're going to be on the beach.
>> What time is it, Theodore? Did you run out of matches? Got a blaze going with just two carrot sticks.
>> Is that a weed joke? In my Alvin and the Chipmunks movie? They really grew up, man.
>> Yeah, just keep an eye out for something to eat or drink, all right? That thing around your neck.
I'm not going to eat this. This was a gift from Theodore.
>> Dude, eat it.
>> I was going to say it's really ugly.
>> I'm kind of on Ian's side here, and I never thought I'd say that.
>> It's soft enough to sleep in.
>> It's not soft. If that's pasta, it better not be cooked cuz that's gross.
It's raw pasta, dude. Let him eat it.
There's nothing soft about the raw pasta. I I can't get over that. Let him eat the [ __ ] necklace, Dave. You've grown too much of a heart. I miss when you were a scary man. He's just kind of a good guy now.
>> This is what we get with those kids.
>> Yeah, thanks, Ian. What the hell? Why are you being so [ __ ] nice?
No.
You smell like [ __ ] You know he smells so [ __ ] rotten in that suit. Oh.
Oh, he's Oh, I thought he was kissing his neck.
>> Tell Jeanette I will watch over her with angel wings.
>> Simone's dead.
>> Dave?
>> This is like my Avengers: Endgame moment when Iron Man sees Spider-Man again.
This is my version of that.
>> Thanks, from the chubby one.
>> [laughter] >> He looked down like he just discovered it. Nothing wrong with it, but he did look down and check.
>> [laughter] >> Back at the waterfall, Jenny Slate discovers the treasure is hidden behind a chipmunk-sized hole. All while the chipmunks discover that the volcano is about to erupt. Oh, it's getting hotter because we saw the volcano smoke because it's going to erupt. Geyser, >> [snorts] >> burning alive. Snack time, eat the cooked chipmunk. I I accidentally said chipmunk, and that's kind of a funny way to say chipette. The chipmunks. Yeah, I feel I don't feel good about that one.
>> We've got to get off this island. We have to build a raft now. Who knows how long we'll be out there?
>> What can I do to help?
>> [crying] >> Oh my god, the look that Alvin gave was heartbreaking. It was like he didn't know how to face him.
Oh. Oh, man, that's actually so sad. He reminds me of my dog right now when my dog is sad, when he throws up. That's what he reminds me of right now and it's breaking my heart. Oh, I have a dog. A dog's at the door. Do you want to say hi? Say hi, Bosch.
So, this is where we need to pause and just chat a little bit more about the characters. Something that I talked about in the Squeakquel at least is the character arcs. The Squeakquel tried to make some sort of arc for Alvin. It kind of fell flat for me. It didn't carry the weight that it needed to impact me. But, that changes with Chipwrecked. There's something about Alvin going from an irresponsible child and to see this moment when he looks like this, it genuinely got me weirdly emotional. I've spent so long hating on these chipmunks and and these movies to be honest. Like, I wouldn't admit that if it wasn't true because it's embarrassing.
>> What's he doing here?
>> He's cool.
>> Yes, for a pelican man.
>> I thought he was going to say Yeah, for a predator. This is definitely not Ian's first experience with an island. So, he should know what's going on here, how to get him off. No. No. That's not what I meant.
>> Did you hear something?
>> Don't worry, madam. Come here and kiss me, my step sister.
>> I don't know his name, but he looks like his name is Bruiser or something. Oh my god, it's like Indiana Jones. This is cute. So, uh Jeanette gets kidnapped by Jenny Slate to fit through the chipmunk-size hole in the wall, but she could have escaped this basketball. She literally gets out of the way here.
Okay, wait, it's getting pretty tense.
The heat is rising. I have to I have to take this hoodie off. One second.
>> Is that why I think I see >> Oh, he's back. Simone's dead? Think about that. This is exactly like Severance. When Simon's here, Simone is dead. He'll never wake up again.
>> When did I give Jeanette a bracelet?
>> On your date.
>> Jeanette and I are dating?
>> He's probably thinking the same thing I'm thinking. It's that I'm dating my step sister? Wait, no, I'm not. Wait.
Sorry. He's dating his step sister?
[ __ ] I I don't know how to get out of this one. This is stressful.
>> I'm coming with you.
>> Absolutely not. It's too dangerous.
>> Sorry, Dave, but I got to disobey you.
>> This really does feel like the end and there's a whole other movie after this, [laughter] you know.
>> Not coming up until you have every last bit of that treasure.
>> Go in.
>> [laughter] >> They pick some pretty funny moments for them to start singing, huh?
>> I I can't hold anymore.
>> IF YOU CAN STILL TALK, IT MEANS YOU HAVEN'T STUFFED YOUR CHEEKS YET.
>> What a pervert.
>> What I'm talking about.
>> [laughter] >> Come on, come on, come on.
>> No, you >> She's a villain and she knows it. She's going like this.
>> Jonathan!
>> [snorts] >> Simon! Simone!
Simon. Simon has a very similar arc of going from the responsible one to learning how to step into a more dangerous role.
Damn, he should go with the sleeveless look like all the time. He looks great.
Stab her. Take it and stab her. Be Dave.
Oh, okay. I wanted him to really attach onto the responsibility of being the next Dave-like serial killer. I take this moment with Dave and Jenny Slate where Jenny Slate, the more sinister, unpredictable, violent force, is now at the verge of destroying the new Dave.
>> Hold me up. Hold up what I'm supposed to do, old Dave.
>> This is kind of like a metaphorical Dave leaving behind or confronting his serial killer crazy past. She represents the old Dave in a way, the way she's tying people up, using them for her own monetary value, and to see Dave get out of that situation and move towards family, well, that's freaking heartwarming, ain't it?
>> Please, help me save my dad.
>> Oh my god.
Oh my god, that's genuinely heartbreaking. Why is this movie like good? It's like yeah, that's his dad. That guy doesn't kill people anymore. He's a father. And that's honestly what really makes this feel like the end for me is that I'm not getting that same feeling I got from the first movie. It feels like things have finally changed. Everybody's kind of on a new level. This is like a perfect finale. Why did they make another money?
They made another one for money.
>> [music and singing] >> Shh. [ __ ] hell. I'm glad Ian's relaxing. Their singing would get old really quick. Hot take, she should have been like left behind. I think that that would have been a better ending if she fell on that bridge. That would have been awesome. Do love how that tennis ball has a funny little mouth. That is fun.
>> I want you to keep it.
>> Really?
>> Maybe you can use it to signal that helicopter.
>> Dave was so nonchalant about that. Did he plan this? It feels like he arranged this. And that was Shipwrecked, a genuinely fun movie to watch. One that I was not dreading the feeling of afterwards. Just like yeah, I get it.
This is the best one. I think it's going to be hard to convince me otherwise.
Thank you for watching it with me and being patient enough for this video.
Make sure to go to woot.store, w00t.store.
Link is in the description. Get yourself a t-shirt or a hoodie. It would really mean a lot to me only if you want to.
Don't feel obligated. And I'll be seeing you in a live stream right after this video premieres. Thank you so much for watching. I will see you in the next video.
Peace.
