Is This A Smurf From Raja Gosnell's Live Action/CGI Project??
Merrick here...
UGO has what appears to be a whole-body shot of a Smurf from the forthcoming live-action/CGI adaptation by Raja Gosnell (the first two SCOOBY DOO movies, BEVERLY HILLS CHIHUAHUA).
See the whole thing HERE!
He looks like one of the Village People.

Even my 8 year old is too smurfing sophisticated for a dogpile like this.

So who cares about all this forced nostalgia.

Isnt 'Smurfing' when you tap your penis on a persons face?
by baron karza
Or are those porno's full of false information?
-
I don't get that.
-
Has anybody actually read the original Yohan and PeeWee comics by Peyo? The original stories were quite good. Maybe they'll be based on that???? Oh wait, this is hollywood, so no.
-
Second... it looks like a smurf.
Third.... see how i got the first in there all stealthy like ;) -
what?
-
Q: How'd you like smurfing with Pappa Smurf yestersmurf?
A: It was smurfy. -
as Gargamel.

chapter 9999

HOME ALONE 3. BIG MOMMA'S HOUSE. The two SCOOBYs. YOURS, MINE AND OURS. Fucking BEVERLY HILLS CHIHUAHUA! And perhaps his most evil act, that fetid filth that is NEVER BEEN KISSED. It is shame and despair in movie form.
-
Smurfs are the cartoon incarnation of Holy Krishna, who will return and purify the world upon its release.
BURN UNBELIEVERS!!!! -
He prematurely smurfed all over himself.
I think there are going to be a lot of complaints about Raja Gosnell smurfing their childhood. Right up their smurf. -
The tight white pants & hat reminded me of their costumes. I know that's part of the Smurf characters' traditional design - but this particular iteration sparked the comparison in my mind for some reason. I'm sick as hell today so maybe way off base.
-
About the only Raja Gosnell movie I've liked.
-
"Oh, Handy. I'll never find a smurf who really smurfs me. You know, the way a smurf wants to be smurfed."
"What the smurf are you smurfing about?"
"Dude. That's, like, totally smurfed up." -
I thought he was ritually sacrificed by Hollywood in a deal with the devil to ensure the success of the Alvin and the Chipmunks Squeak-uel...
-
that have been lingering over Smurfs from the very beginning. Why is there only one female Smurf? And if Smurfette's the only one, does that mean she's like the hive queen and gets plenty fucked by all the dudes. How do they reproduce? Papa Smurf, why he's the only one who gets to wear red, and why's he the only one with a beard? Vanity Smurf is a homosexual, right? i mean it's pretty obvious.
-
Smurfette was my first childhood crush. No wonder everyone has taken to Avatar, Neytiri subconciously reminds them of Smurfette with titties.
-
Just heard that little rumor. Mike Meyers being tapped to play Gargamel. You people starting to get excited?
-
Just read the script. "[Smurfing]. Shot opens on Tedious Smurf smurfing his collection of smurfles. Suddenly, the door bangs open. Obnoxious Smurf is the doorway, and he has clearly been smurfing. He smurfily walks inside, exuding an air of smurfness. "I've got some smurf to smurf with you," he says with an edge of smurfiness in his voice. "And you're going to smurf there and smurf it."
-
You know it's going to happen.
-
I like it!!! Well done!!!!

But only because Klaus Kinski is dead.

Wit Mr Darko... Smurfette was the village hoe... also sure Brainy Smurf is a pedosmurf
-
looks like a still shot of bigfoot from that video years ago
-
Why redo this shit?
-
And we send in one of our own as a Smurf to tell them to move out of their village. Shock and awe. Terrorize 'em. Proud to be an American. Fuck yeah.
Oscar gold. -
and nipples? yuck.

When he's clearly shown that he CAN'T!!!

When this thing TANKS with less than $80M on a $120M budget...let's hope that this is laid to rest.
-
You only need blue people and CGI to be nominated.
-
I am discombobulated.
-
should be just like the toys: a smaller, cheaper version of Transformers
-
Where's Gargemel when you need him? To me, he's the hero in that story. Smurfs are an infection. Kill em all I say! If I knew that's how the movie ended, THEN I would watch it.

-
Nuff said, am I right?

Yep, that's a Smurf. I thought the days of spies were history. I've been dying for somebody to grab a pic of Thor. I guess this stuff is too easy to trace back to its source these days.

Someone's already done this joke, right?

Anywhere? Little kids will be dragged in by misguided parents, everyone will hate it, and nobody on this site will ever bother to see it except that one plant-sounding guy up there who said it looks impressive. Why waste the bandwidth? He says, having just written a short paragraph about it.

"Gargamel is a wise old wizard, but he's about to get smurfity smurf, smurf smurfity smurfed!"

So, a parent I know decided to netflix some Smurf DVDs to show her daughters. After about three episodes the oldest one—she's in 1st grade—says, "I don't understand. What do they do?" The mom says "What do you mean?" The girl says, "Why did you used to watch this? They don't do anything." The youngest daughter (4-years-old) says, "They run away from that man." The older one agrees, they do do that. "But do they do anything else?" "Not really," said the mom.
-
Love the blurry B&W photo...
-
Then I would have some smurfingly smurfed up dreams about me smurfing smurfette.
-
of filmmakers.
-
So the guy that destroyed a beloved cartoon classic is going to destroy this one.
-
The bitch gots it goinz on!
-
they keep the jet engine that lands in that one Smurf's bedroom, I'm fine with it, but I could do without that 'gangbang' scene.
-
Smurfette should be handed around like the tart she is and Handy should just go postal and start blowing mother fuckers away with a gatling gun.
-
Over Christmas weekend I was talked into watching it. As I was traumatized by a car accident Xmas Eve, my brain didn't register that my younger sister, screwy older brother and eight-year-old niece all seemed to love it. So, rather than argue for "Bolt," I went along with the crowd. Dear gods, protect me from seeing another film that BORING any time soon. Boring and silly, obviously aimed at young children but lacking crossover quality for adults. I think I chuckled a couple of times. At least Carlos Mencia wasn't in it. Was he? My brain was scarred by that movie.
-
Considering how much I love zombies, it shouldn't be surprising that I'd be into a "Black Smurfs" story. Heh heh heh . . .

Cuz he's one swingin' cat.

I see they really went out of their way in re-designing the little blue dudes.

Oh man, as soon as we got out of the bar, she started smurfing me.

Why does every animated lifeform have to have 4 fingers?
by wickedjester
-
It's obvious that Smurfette would just lay a bunch of eggs then all the males have a giant circle jerk to fertilize them
right? -
In the early days of animation - when each frame was drawn by hand. It was just easier and faster to drop one and go with three-fingered hands.
Just an FYI, Sonic the Hedgehog has 4 fingers and a thumb. -
At least without Cameron directing this epic...it won't take 5 years to reach the screen ..thank god.
-
Zombie Smurfs comic. Check this out...http://www.facebook.com/#/album.php?aid=128781&id=509922114
(GaNap will be referenced, btw...) -
I can't really be anything but indifferent since the design is impossible to fuck up. I just want to see how the rest of them look.
-
Yup that's a Smurf alright. Why does it say Smurfy on the bottom? Smurfy Smurfin' Smurfs!
-
will this be a contemporary piece like the Scooby films or set in Medieval times like the cartoon?
-
oh i forgot- we're not in kansas anymore.
-
Yup, I'd pay $10 to see that animated in 3D IMAX.

Could you imagine the Astrosmurf story with modern fx?!
by royston lodge
IT WOULD MAKE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS!!!
Heh heh heh... I'm kidding, of course. -
Not sure the exact reason for the 3 fingers/1 thumb thing, but I'll take slone13's word for it.
But yeah, you'll notice Japanese characters like Sonic and Mario have four fingers and a thumb... drawing characters with less fingers is taboo over there. Apparently it has to do with yakuza associations. But interesting trivia regarding Sonic: Nack the Weasel/Fang the Sniper is the only character missing a finger on each hand. He's also the only character from the games to have any links to the criminal underworld. -

He thinks that a Smurf looks like a member of the Village People.
-
Which smurf is going to fart or pee on something? I know smurfs have no genitals, but I'm sure they'll find some cheap jokes to throw in there.
-
Can't this be the one needless, uninspired Hollowood regurgitation that we give a pass? I mean, who among us honestly believes that their childhood is being raped with this latest incarnation?
-
That's how tall Smurfs are supposed to be. I always pictures them as tall as their widely popular toy line in the 80's. 3 apples high is actually quite frightening.
-
Capone will be forced to interview the director and give the movie a glowin review... all cuz there will be a fat red haired smurf named Hairy Smurf (or Sell Out Smurf to his peers)... also the site owner will have an article talkin bout his new six inch action figure smurf (but will "forget" to do his DVD column)
-
That's why Hollywood shouldn't get a pass if they bastardize it.
-
Ever since I first saw him, I thought he'd be a great Gargamel.
-
If handled right and aim it at Shrek or Toy Story audience.
-
I did some desing work and some script rewrites for the upcoming smurf film, i was drawn to it because it seemed like athe last good family film to go to, and the way it sets up a squel will be talked about for years
-
i thought you knew i was smooth!
-
Earlier in this tb i mentioned JettL, and now he has resurrected...so am I god?
-
Look forward to taking my son. And yes I liked the Scooby Doo flick as "family Entertainment".

Scooby Doo 2 > Avatar, Smurfs > Na'vi
by ihaveseeneveryepisodeofprisonbreak
Avatar was awful and I hated every minute of it. The 3-D was terrible. The Navi which when around humns looked 15 feet tall, later looked like they were 3 feet tall. Groundbreaking my ass! Scooby Doo 2, while a terrible film, never pretended to be groundbreaking and therefore was better. Hell I even laughed when dumbass scrappy showed up.

SMURF THIS SMURF!!! IS NOTHING SMURFING SAFE FROM HOLLYWOOD?
by tehcreepythinman
SMURF ME!!!
-
specifically designed to tap into the parents of today and their nostalgia/brand recognition from watching 80's cartoons. Why not make movies based on what kids are watching these days, is Dora The Explorer still popular?? That seemed like a quality, respectable property to adapt. Kids don't know about the smurfs, Chipmunks. Let them decide what movies get made.
-
...smurfed my smurfhood!!
-
He and The Smurfs are Belgium's biggest exports.
-
Everything this guy's done has been shit! Another example: Mystery Men. Barely watchable, though William H. Macy, Ben Stiller-When-He-Was-Still-Funny and Paul Reubens make it vaguely watchable.
-
Ben Stiller as Gargamel's cat!
-
for Gargamel.
-
I just can't keep my weirdly-named hack directors straight.
-
I was one of those dorks who collected the figures for quiet a while in my youth (traded them for a nice amount of credit at a comic/collectibles shop many years ago). I'm interested in a Smurf's movie/revival, but the directors resume isn't really instilling me with a lot of confidence. Those movies, regardless of quality, really weren't the kind of thing I generally enjoy. I could ALMOST get into the first Scooby movie, but then something too far cheesed and self aware would happen and I'd loose interest again.
-
That's funny as, 3 apples high, actually it would be quite frightening seeing one that big, i assumed they were about 3 inches high. The best thing that has probably ever come out of the smurfs is their language, which we immature ones take the smurf out of......The best thing some studio honcho could do is take one of these old 80's cartoons/icon's and remake it for people who watched it in the 80's ie. make it a grown up spoof with language and violence and rated R. That's probably the only way we would ever enjoy them
-
that you used to get at the servo. Kid logic I guess... I sorta remember seeing a Smurf animated movie in the school holidays too. So long ago...
-
Smurf #1: Yo, Smurf, that party last night was freakin', Smurf!
Smurf #2: You bet your smurf it was!
Smurf #1: Hey, I saw you leaving with Smurfette.
Smurf #2: Yeah. Right when we left the party, she started smurfin' me.
Smurf #1: Shut the smurf up! Right in the smurfing parking lot?
Smurf #2: Oh, yeah.
Smurf #1: That's freakin' smurf!
Smurf #2: You betcha.
Smurf #1: Freakin' smurf. -

that thing looks totally sinister.

I went to a middle school in Houston in the early 80's and I remember rumors of a gang called the Smurfs. I found a link to some articles about the rumors.

but NOTHING, not one sick, depraved, insanity driven thing I could conjure up would be more rismurfulous that the reality of a fucking Smurf Movie. I hope 2012 IS the end of the world if this is an indication of where it is headed.
-
...when a majority of the posts on both the Smurf and Muppet Movie talkbacks are hateful and sarcastic.
-
It depends if you are a smurf from the North or a smurf from the South :)
This is from the best smurfs comic maybe: Smurf Vs Smurf: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smurf_Versus_Smurf -
I still laugh remembering it, it's one of the funniest comics I've read:
"One night, during a theatre performance of Little Smurf Riding Hood, the Northern part of the audience keeps interrupting the Southern actors over the use of language, claiming, among other things, that the title should be Little Red Riding Smurf. The arguing and interruptions continue to the point where the play erupts into an all-out fight. Papa Smurf breaks it up, pointing out the silliness of fighting over a matter of words. At first the Smurfs appear to think that he is right, but then start arguing again over whether they should "shake smurfs" or "smurf hands"." -
...for Clint Howard! WTF? Now there's a JettL1993? You the same insufferable douche? Or a new insufferable douche? MacReady452...I just had that Gummi Bears theme randomly pop into my head at work about a week ago...thought I was having a stroke! lol. Thanks for the laugh.
-
I hated the smurfs as a child I swear that was the only Sat. morning cartoon that stayed on a hour and it seemed like 3. But if theres a audience for Alvin the Chipmunks the squeakquel theres a audience for this. It's just not me.
-
It eases my mind to know mild dementia extends north of the border. After all..it does bounce here, there and EVERYWHERE.
-
Well, his credits seem to indicate that anyway.
-
THAT should p!$$ somebody off!
-
I can't think of anything creepier than an out-of-focus black and white 3d rendering of a Smurf.
-
an I never did until now
-
RUUUUUUN!!!! AUUUUUUUUGH!! (No, seriously, human eyes in a Smurf is pretty creepy. Tales-from-the-Crypt creepy.)
-
This can't be good.
-
Brainy had something to do with it.
Actually, as much as everyone heaps shit on the Smurfs, the original Peyo comics were really well done, and his art had a beautiful and natural line. Also the ones I bought in the eighties were not like American comics, but properly bound books which I think may have been exactly the same dimensions and binding as the Tintin books. Good quality paper as well. The stories and characterisation may leave you cold, but the art was great, and you can't hold Peyo (hadn't he died by the time it all hit big?) responsible for fucking underoos.
Having said all that, why on earth are the pants all wrinkled and super realistic? They're bloody little blue guys with tails! If you can't suspend your disbelief enough to buy the premise, no amount of photorealistic physics simulation on their dacks will convince you. Geez man... -
Let him off the leash! I would watch this smurfing movie if it had Nic Cage's skull like head going crazy in it.
-
He is obviously planning something. Look at those eyes. If that's the final design, this is gonna be hillarious. Imagine a thousand of those fucking things staring at you, surrounded by mushroom houses. No child will sleep the summer this comes out.

I even saw a few episodes of the TV-show, though not that many. But even with a bit of nostalgia I have hard time to get exited about something that will suck harder than a day time hooker in a public toilet.
-
Which reminds me...back in the 80s, when Lucas's folly (well, his first one, anyway) was released, they actually had a tie-in with Playboy magazine, and featured a nude female duck on their pages...
Talk about boner poison. Jeezus. -
Try Googling "strawberry shortcake porn". You'll find that you're too late to take credit for the lesbo Strawberry Shortcake...
-
beer and my general sex-appeal.
-
despite the annoying overuse of the word "smurf" as a placeholder for various words in their lexicon, the cartoon version from the 80's actually has well paced and thought out storytelling, now that I've seen them, now. In retrospect, I don't remember being all that captivated as a kid, but I think it was more childhood posturing because The Smurfs were perceived to be primarily a show for girls, at the time.Now, how they hold up to the Peyo originals, I don't know, as I've never read them. But it was inevitable they'd get a live actioner, given Tin Tin, and the general significance of Belgian comics.
-
apart from the chosen director, is if they decide to set it in the present, instead of during the faux cute-sy Middle Ages.
-
ducktits! a whoo hoo!
-
The reasoning was actually more interesting than I had imagined.
-
because Gargamel created her. She's a perversion from the perfect male fantasy, and inherently evil because she's female. Fuck the SMURFS!
-
Didn't that shithead James Cameron already make this movie?!
-
well played, sir

Smurf James Cameron and smurf AVATAR getting a Best Picture nomination. Smurf them right in the ear!

You so-called spies aren't worth the skin you're covered by if you can't get me a pic of Thor! Smurfs? Humbug!
-
3 apples high really is quite frightening. this movie should start out in the happy world of smurfland - then cut to all the smurfs being rounded up and tossed into a carny side show. or smurf tossing.
-
The Smurfs are living happily in their mushroom village in a Belgian forest. One day, an evil American mushroom company comes by and scoops up their homes and ships them overnight to Manhattan where they are to be sold as rare delicacies to expensive New York restaurants.
The Smurfs in Manhattan! Imagine the hilarity! THE HILARITY!!! -
That's the trouble with the designs of CGI characters - every bodily orifice and topical detail is included in them, just because they CAN be, thanks to computers. Feh. Kudos to Imagi for leaving the trademark Tezuka eyelashes off of Astro Boy. Doing so helped make him a BOY in the best sense of the word, instead of a gay/pedophiliac icon. As for this Smurf thing...well, whatever, why not? They're about do for a CGI makeover, and it could work out, and they were always a superb brand for kids (better than a lot of the crap out there for them now) so I hope it's good and if it is, I hope it's successful. La LA la la la la....

An idea whose time has come!
-
...quite a lot, Smurfette wasn't, technically, the only female. Sassette Smurfling was the other (also created by Gargamel).
-
Dario Argento looks alot like Gargamel! We need to see a Argento directed Smurfs!! Actually show Gargamel eating the Smurfs.
-
...that period of time between "adaptation" and "digging through 20 year old crap for new, shinier, crap". I remember thinking when they said a cgi Garfield was on the way: Now? Uhh...now? It was ten plus years ago every asshat and his/her mother had a garfield suctioned cupped to his/her window but NOW they're making a movie?Same for Smurfs except I think we may have passed through the "dead zone" of adaptations and now it's remembered fondly by near-middle aged asshats?Is it too soon for a live action Ren & Stimpy or would we have to wait 10 years until it was fondly remembered? Notice how close the word "fondly" is to "fondle"?Who's writing this shit anyway?

If so, how could a creature three apples high live in a mushroom? I don't think there are any that big. Or do they build their houses to look like shrooms for some reason?
