RiffTrax Shorts Season 18 Episode 3 Adventures of a Chipmunk Family

In Season 18, Episode 3 of RiffTrax Shorts, the team is back with their trademark snarky commentary and comedic banter as they tackle the animated film, "Adventures of a Chipmunk Family".

The film begins with a family of chipmunks who live in a peaceful forest. The father, Chip, is a hard-working provider for his family while the mother, Squeaky, takes care of their children, Snuffy and Snappy. The story follows their daily routine of gathering food, avoiding predators, and keeping the family safe.

As the RiffTrax crew begins their commentary, they notice some of the obvious inconsistencies in the animation and story. They point out how the chipmunks have human-like hands and how their mouths move strangely when they talk. They also rib on the mother character, who seems to be obsessively overprotective of her children, even going so far as to put helmets on them to protect them from falling acorns.

As the story progresses, the chipmunk family encounters various obstacles, including a snake, a hawk, and a group of field mice. The RiffTrax crew jokes about how the snake is depicted as being surprisingly patient as it stalks its prey and how the hawk seems to have a vendetta against this particular chipmunk family. They also spot some hidden references in the film, such as nods to the classic film, "The Birds".

Throughout their commentary, the RiffTrax crew delivers a steady stream of jokes and commentary, ranging from goofy one-liners to astute observations about the animation and story. They also make several pop culture references, including nods to Star Wars and The X-Files.

As the film nears its conclusion, the chipmunk family faces a new danger in the form of a forest fire. With the help of some friendly woodland creatures, including a beaver and a rabbit, they are able to find safety and rebuild their home.

Overall, RiffTrax Shorts Season 18 Episode 3 is a hilarious and irreverent take on "Adventures of a Chipmunk Family". The RiffTrax crew's commentary perfectly complements the film's cheesy animation and saccharine story. With plenty of laughs and clever jokes along the way, this episode is sure to entertain both fans of RiffTrax and newcomers alike.
