This holiday season at the movies is ruined, as Betty Thomas' "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel" is set to tear apart the big screen when it opens Dec. 25, 2009. Here's a crappy new trailer for the sequel.

I still don't know how a mess such as "Alvin and the Chipmunks" could bag $217 million domestically, but it did, and here we are again, with the annoying chipmunks creating a mess, playing football and...

Another week is coming to an end, and it's time for a look at a bunch of recent movie posters that surfaced online during the past couple of days. I've got four for you today, and you can check them out by scrolling down after the jump.

The first one is for Sandra Bullock's upcoming comedy "All About Steve," in which she plays a total weirdo who stalks Bradley Cooper. The film doesn't look as delightful as her recent hit "The Proposal," but it boasts a solid cast. "Steve" heads to theaters Sept. 4, 2009.

Next up we have the new one-sheet for Mira Nair's "Amelia," which chronicles the life of the famous American pilot who became the first woman to fly across the Atlantic by herself. The trailer looks gorgeous, and this poster with lead actress Hilary Swank is not bad either. "Amelia" lands Oct. 23.

Lame new teaser trailer for 'Chipmunks 2' debuts

Tim Hill's "Alvin and the Chipmunks" was one of the lamest films I've seen in years, but believe it or not, this mess of a movie actually pulled in $217 million domestically. No kidding.

Shortly after the film's success, a sequel was announced, and now it's almost here. Opening day is Dec. 25, 2009, and here is a brand-new (and boring) teaser trailer.

In "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel," the annoying chipmunks run into the chipettes. Darn, that CG just looks awful, doesn't it?

Anyway, I hardly doubt this follow-up will be better than its predecessor. Even though I don't know how bad it will be, one thing is for sure: I already can't wait for this year's Christmas Day to be over.
