Yep. I think that was him. Him and Danny Goldman.

Hell yes! You can't have a good live action Smurf's movie without the Smurfs looking like these guys.

Make up your mind.

"Live action Smurfs coming!" doesn't imply that anything about CGI is involved.

Read the article. It's a hybrid movie. Meaning that the Smurfs are CGI but everyone else is live action, like the "Alvin and the Chipmunks" movie or "Transformers"

*gobo* · 06-11-2008, 10:52 PM

It's all good. I'm just pointing out that I'm not the only one to jump to that conclusion because of the misleading thread title.

*The Stryker* · 06-11-2008, 11:16 PM

Eh, I'll wait until something actually comes out before I pass judgement.

I enjoyed that Rocky & Bullwinkle movie awhile back for some strange reason.

I did too. It takes a lot of undeserved heat, yes. I agree they made some odd conceptual choices, and that girl spy that tags allong with them was the major fault of the film... but they WERE Rocky and Bullwinkle, cracking jokes, puns, and confusing Washington the city with Washington the president (recurring gag).

But then check out Dudley Do-Right. That was a disaster. Dudley himself couldn't have screwed it up any worse.

I hope we don't wind up hearing famous A and B list celeb voices coming out of the mouths of the Smurfs. One of the reasons I liked Bullwinkle was the Moose and Squirrel used voice actors. June Foray still played Rocky, while voice actor Keith Scott (oddly enough, no relation to Bill Scott) handled the Moose (all the while writing a book on the history of Jay Ward).

I wanna hear any avaiable voice actor and actress from the 80's series. I know we'd have to get a replacement for Don Messick, and I don't know if Hamilton Camp is still around.... but definately June Foray, and I'm sure Lucile Bliss is still out there.

As long as they don't do that thing they did in the other Smurf film where they all had the same odd voice.

Be afraid of what? He looks adorable.

*ZariusTwo* · 09-01-2009, 02:44 PM

Scarface reference plugging a Smurfs film. What's not to like?

*Mecha Cow* · 09-01-2009, 02:51 PM

Is that real? I don't know what the budget is on this thing but that doesn't look too amazing.

*Raph's Girl* · 02-02-2010, 02:50 PM

Well after a year of not hearing anything about this film there's some news! Seems the film's actually in pre-production (supposadly now out next Summer) in NYC.

And SUPPOSADLY the following image is what they'll look like (unlike that poster from last year):

*Candy Kappa* · 02-02-2010, 03:32 PM

looks more fitting to a full CG movie rather than a hybrid

*Raph's Girl* · 03-05-2010, 01:13 AM

Neil Patrick Harris has been cast as the lead live action character (human?) in the Smurf's movie. Doesn't say who tho. Altho the article below says he's a Smurf. Im not even sure if Gargamel is even in the movie since the plot involves the Smurfs in the 21st century. Filming starts in April.

*Cure* · 03-05-2010, 11:26 AM

Holy sh*t. Dr. Horrible as Gargamel would be awesome.

*Luzmagica* · 03-05-2010, 12:00 PM

Just add this comentary... Smurfs are "Pitufos" in Spanish...and they are still very popular ...This movie will be a new wave of blue merchandasing ....

Spacebabie · 03-06-2010, 04:04 PM

Smurfs in the 21st century? Does that mean there will be a Emo Smurf?

BoggleKng · 03-06-2010, 08:47 PM

maybe they will use the Avatar technology... I heard that the same studio is going to do a Tintin movie..

*Krutch* · 03-07-2010, 07:38 AM

This live adaptation is going to be darker, grittier, and filmed in 3D.

the fixer · 03-14-2010, 11:57 AM

It's still weird to me that The Smurfs and Tintin, both cultural icons from Belgium, are finally hitting the silver screen...
Well, actually they both have for years, but not in such a big way!

I've read that Kate Perry is rumored to be in talks for the voice of Smurfette... Can't say I'm particulary thrilled with that. Reminds me of Avril Lavigne doing that voice in Over The Hedge... It's clearly to drag a teen audience to the theater.

Oh- the same article stated that Alan 'Nightcrawler' Cumming is voicing 'Gutsy Smurf'. Don't even know which smurf that is.
Oh well, at least Cumming has experience portraying a blue-skinned character...

Spacebabie · 03-14-2010, 03:54 PM

I don't remember a Gutsy smurf unless that was a smurf of the day episode. Where they revolve an episode around one smurf that you only see once ala Nosy, Weepy, or Pushover.
