Heartwarming / Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet the Wolfman

• Alvin’s new book on monsters comes with a useless piece of jewelry (the book’s advertisement even lampshades that it serves no real purpose). Alvin tosses it out of his window… only for it to land on Theodore’s head as he walks by. The latter is confused at first, but then he immediately thinks of giving the necklace to Eleanor as a present. Awww
  • Then again it did also lead to Theodore being bitten by Mr. Talbot on his way back home...but at the same time, him seeing Eleanor wearing the necklace was what made him snap out of hurting her.
• Alvin defending Theodore from a bully. The principal who can't stand Alvin even admits it's sweet.
• Alvin and Simon's concern when they find out their brother got turned into a werewolf.
• Even when confronted with the fact that Theodore may be permanently stuck as a werewolf, Alvin can't bring himself to put him down.
• When everything (and everyone) is back to normal Mr. Talbot takes a moment to humbly thank Theodore for his part in freeing him from the curse of the Werewolf. Theodore simply says it was his pleasure, taking no credit and his tone implies that it was natural for him to do.
  • Before then, Theodore is ashamed of himself for nearly attacking Eleanor as a werewolf, but the minute Eleanor is nearly attacked by Wolf Talbot, Theodore goes in against the big bad wolf himself.
• Dave is genuinely scared of Wolf!Talbot, but his first instinct is making sure the kids are all safe from their neighbor. And at the end, Dave shows up ready to take on the Wolfman himself. He's willing to do a LOT to keep his kids safe from the monster.
• Everything's Gonna Be Alright. Can you say Dance Party Ending! It's a great relief after the genuinely perilous climax and a way for everyone to catch their breath after all the scares. It’s also a fun way to play us out from this iteration of the franchise since this was the second and final of the franchise’s crossover series movies.
  • The fact that Talbot joins in on the dancing, choosing Madame Raya as his partner, and he looks so happy about it. Now that he's free of his werewolf curse, he can finally enjoy himself.
• Unless if you count House of Dracula, at least one version of Lawrence Talbot escaped the curse of Lycanthropy.
