Alvin and the Chipmunks

Trivia: When the Chipmunks are singing their Christmas song with Dave, he is playing a piano. That piano belonged to the creator of the original Chipmunks, Ross Bagdasarian.

Trivia: When Dave is looking for the chipmunks we see his house number is 1958. That was the year that the chipmunks were created.

Trivia: In one trailer on a DVD, you see Alvin and Theodore talking to Dave, with Simon behind them, and Alvin is forced to eat Theodore's poo to save his skin, but in the movie they switch Alvin and Simon around, and Alvin is removed completely from that scene.

Continuity mistake: Towards the beginning when Dave leaves the record label (after he steals the muffins), downstairs you can see a girl in a pink top, a delivery guy and a black guy in beige boots. The girl in the pink top passes Dave, then it cuts and you see her in front of Dave. Then it cuts again and you see her behind Dave and going around a corner. Also, the guy in the boots does the same thing a few times. And the delivery guy comes up close to the shot in the end, then they show him again just getting close.
