They said "It’s Smurfin Time" in the trailer, are making dumb internet jokes for millennials, are introducing stupid shit like the "Smurf multiverse", look at the posters, they’re clearly trying to pander to zoomers and millennials in the hopes broccoli haired zoomers wearing Smurf costumes will show up in theaters and act like autistic retards, and who knows, it might actually work. There’s no way they looked at this shit script and thought it looked good.
Minions: The Rise of Gru had tons of zoomers flock to the theaters to watch it as a joke, and you know what trailer released a few months before the Smurfs trailer? The Minecraft Movie, a movie that many people knew was gonna suck but went to theaters to watch it anyway for the LOLs. The Smurfs are a cancerous franchise, the only people who give a fuck about it are the cartoon spergs of the 80’s (yes they exist, look up shit like Smurf in Hand and Empath: The Luckiest Smurf), this is the third time they tried to reboot this franchise with a film, it seems they’re really getting desperate to keep this franchise afloat.
News flash, the only people who will watch the Smurfs in theaters are babies, babies that will act like retards thinking they’re watching an ironic masterpiece, maybe the film will even have it’s own "Chicken Jockey" scene, but instead of zoomers throwing popcorn it’s babies throwing diapers and splattering their shit all over the theater, sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. I wanna Smurfin kill myself, nobody these days wants to watch good films so they’ll only watch "ironic" garbage, the internet was a Smurfin mistake.
Why cant they get the simplest things right, like using smurf talk for the whole movie? The cartoon did it kids arent dumb
>>149150223 (OP)how long until they get cancelled for saying tard?
>>149150460You expect Gen Alfers to have watched the original Smurfs? At this point there’s more children who know Smurfs from the shit attempts at rebooting the franchise than the original series.
>>149150223 (OP)>Jimmy Kimmeland already it screams trying too hard

>>149150490Nah that was an edit I made cause it’s fucking funny, funnier than anything I’ve seen from the shit trailers and teasers
The original is some shitty Elton John reference or smthn
I hope this movie bombs, total Smurf death
>>149150543Drawn Together was so great, it was ahead of its time
>>149150521Ah well shit, I laughed at least.
>>149150518The worst kinds of celebrity VAs are ones thrown in for the meme factor, like Keanu Reeves in Sponge in the Run.
I know a lot of people these days online hate celebrity VAs, but I don’t mind them as long as they’re casted well, like Tom Hanks as Woody or Robin Williams as the Genie. Speaking of which, Rihanna’s voice does not fit Smurfette at all, yet she’s who they’re choosing to market the film around.
>>149150829spitballing here, but they should've at least gotten someone like Sydney Sweeney to voice Smurfette. The reason why filmmakers chose Rihanna was just for purposes of marketing. You can argue that Raja Gonsell did the same when casting Katy Perry in the two live-action movies, which is very true especially during her peak early in that same decade, but at least she sorta fits the role to a lesser extent. Rihanna doesn't fit as she's a shit actress, and is nothing more than a huge celebrity than an actress that's billed for a major blockbuster
>>149150731Not it really wasn't. It had some great jokes here and there, but it was mostly the edgy equivalent of throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks. It was made exactly at the time it was supposed to be made
>>149151819I feel like that’s understandable a bit for season 3 and the movie but yet again I laugh at it lot for how ridiculously over the top it is. Season 2 had tons of clever edgy jokes:
>"My pussy has a freckle on it!">"Relax Clara, lots of pussies have freckles, like Ron Howard."
>>149150223 (OP)Do they go to New York again?
>>149151849I have no idea who Ron Howard is so the joke isn't funny to me.
>>149151874I don’t know much about him either but just laughed at it for them just insulting a random celebrity like that lmao
>>149151857They’re straight up doing the whole "Smurfs go to the real world" shtick again, but this time it’s in Paris
If I’m giving the new Smurfs film credit for one thing though it at least looks like it’s nowhere close to the level of shit as the early 2010’s Smurf duology. Sure the designs look like a cheaper version of the 2D-like 3D cartoon style in films like The Peanuts Movie and Sponge on the Run but I’ll take that style in a heartbeat over those horrendous 2011 designs.
>>149151940>this time it’s in ParisThey already fucking went to Paris in the sequel
Jesus Christ at least make them go to Belgium or the middle ages this time.
>>149150223 (OP)>>149150460Because irony is a shield people use to deflect criticism.
>lol i watch baby shit as an adult but i do it ironically so it's fine>lol i like bad video games but i play them ironically so it's fine>lol this movie sucks and I hate it but i watch it ironically so it's fine Nobody can just like things anymore, they have to remind you that they are stupid so liking it is fine
Serious question? Did the Smurfs ever have ANY good media at all? The 80’s cartoon is nothing but your standard sappy 80’s baby slop like Care Bears and The Get Along Gang. Said 80’s cartoon is what the Smurfs is mostly known for, which is why that cartoon is parodied all the time in media and was hated by animators in the industry around the 80’s due to it being the embodiment of stiff animation dark age garbage.
They’re an absolute joke of a franchise that deserves to be left in the 80’s.
>>149151962smurfs in the middle ages??? now that's an outlandish idea
>>149150829>but I don’t mind them as long as they’re casted well, like Tom Hanks as Woody or Robin Williams as the Geniei mean those were characters literally created with them in mind for the roles. they had animated previous works of theirs as references for animation tests, its why they work as well as they do.
>>149150223 (OP)What if we stopped trying to keep fucking dead IPs on life support and just came up with new ideas instead?
>>149150223 (OP)>stupid shit like the "Smurf multiverse"You don't know how much it bothers me that smurf village is a separate plane of reality from Earth like why
>>149152023Mainline comics are good and still sell to this day (in Europe at least, maybe less so in the USA)
And despite your dislike the cartoons were mostly fine, especially when compared to other slop coming out at the time. Of course it's unwatchable as an adult and a huge step down from the comics.
WHY ARE THEY ADDING LIKE 3 MASCOTS IN A FRANCHISE THAT IS AREADY 100 BLUE MASCOTS
>>149153196The 2011 Smurfs is just Enchanted on crack, have characters from another world go to New York, boom, instant hit
