Chipmunks movie producer Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. told HollywoodInHiDef.com / 3DHollywood.net that not only is he taking the irrespressible singing and mischievous rodents to 3D for their next cinematic outing but that he’s exploring converting the previous two Chipmunks movies dating back to the mid-1980s to 3D as well.
Bagdasarian’s revelations (seen in 2 1/2-minute video below) came during a publicity event during pre-game activities at Dodger Stadium Saturday (April 4) to promote the Blu-ray release of “Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel.” In addition to promos intermittently filling scoreboards, signage and the public address speaker system throughout the stadium, Bagdasarian threw out the first pitch (a rare strike) and Alvin, Simon and Theodore sang “American the Beautiful” and high-fived Dodgers manager Joe Torre.
