Spoiler Alert

The Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers film can be called a reboot, but I think it’s a continuation.

Some times some crimes go slippin’ through the cracks, and this time Chip n’ Dale’s Rescue Rangers will come to life as a feature-length live-action movie. The rodents will no doubt be rendered in CGI and this concept should prove interesting. The Hollywood Reporter is letting Disney Afternoon fans know that these chipmunks with a penchant for danger are going after more than just cheese. Well, that’s if Monty, a pudgy adventure-loving mouse, has anything to say about it.
