I can't wait for the Smurfs movie!

Just wondering, have you heard any news on a release date for the Elfquest movie? I can't find anything anywhere.

Me too. In fact, Schleich (a German toy company) already released movie themed Smurf figures. They have several holding movie equipment, a Smurf dressed like Charlie Chaplin, and Smurfette doing that Seven Year Itch pose of Marilyn Monroe.

Schleich has NEVER stopped making Smurfs stuff, mainly cuz they're European based. It's hard to find in the US, but there's ample distribution, and most PVC Smurfs are 4 bucks each in many of the places I find them. The PlayAlong stuff is nice, and I may just pick up the Papa/Brainy set.

Wow not much coming out I care to see. I'll check out "Drag Me To Hell" simply because I still have some misplaced faith in Rami. I'm also interested in "Public Enemy" and a few others on that list.

I doubt that includes limited release/foreign films so there might be some of those that catch my eye.

I know what you mean, I took a half day every Friday in May because there are so many good releases.

I'm quite excited to see Adventureland since it was filmed at Kennywood in Pittsburgh. Ahhh Kennywood, childhood memories...

Cool! I work in Pgh, on the Northside. A couple of my friends were used as extras, it will be fun trying to spot them.

There's no secret that this year's crop of films is a might slim.... remember, we just came off of that writer's strike not too long ago, and while TV felt the effects quick, movies are feeling it just recently.

Unrelated, another reason for the Smurf merchandise, the 50th anniversary of the characters.

Back to related, I wonder how Fantastic Mr. Fox is gonna come out. I always loved that book when I was younger.

Anyone notice that they put A- Movies like Watchmen and Monsters VS Aliens during March? Is that because both studios thing Summer is going to be that competitive? Or are they just movine the Summer movie competition stuff 2 months further up?

Seems like the only really big films will be Wolverine, Star Trek, Harry Potter, Transformers 2 and GI Joe.... and GI Joe? I've never seen them put a movie that anticipated in August before. usually that's where Disney puts talking dog films, and other studios do little low budget things signifying the end of the Summer Movie rush.

Don't count out Avatar or Terminator 4.

The Terminator 4 trailer is one of the most watched, behind Transformers and Wolverine. Star Trek now, while I'll go see the movie, I wouldn't be too surprised if it barely breaks even with it's budget.

And as for Avatar. It's going to be James Cameron's first film since his infamous Titanic, and he has a pretty good track record of making films that are favorites by both the critics and the mass audience. It could be one of the best great films we have seen in a long time.
