Maybe it’s because it’s late at night, but for some reason I broke down weeping when I saw that. I kid you not.

I think my main objection with them is the eyes.. I mean, they gave them the cartoonish bodies, but realistic eyes. It just doesn’t ‘mesh’ well. If they were more toonish, it’d be much less Uncanny Valley.

That’s not even counting any plot elements. They did well with Gargamel, though.

2: What proof will you accept that you are wrong? You ask us to change our mind, but we cannot change yours?
3: It is not our responsibility to disprove your claims, but rather your responsibility to prove them.
4. Personal testamonials are not proof.

Nah, I’ve seen the character photo of him. They got Hank Azaria looking pretty much like the source material. Hang on, lemmie find a link….

I’ll note that Jokey Smurf is being voiced by Paul Reubens, AKA Pee Wee Herman.

Ah. Nicely done. And my daughter will be six next summer. Just the right age to really, really, really want to go see this movie. :shut:
