People who were kids in the eighties I have an announcement for you. They are making a movie about Smurfs. Who is they? I don't know and I'm too lazy to look it up. And would you really care anyways? Nobody pays attention to who MAKES the movies, we only care about who is IN the movie. Stanley Kubrick could make the damn Smurf Movie, that still wouldn't stop 98 percent of the people from exiting the theater--ignoring the credits--with popcorn stained grins, squinting against the orange sun while muttering phrases like, "I liked that part where" or "that was so funny when" or "I can't believe that Neil Patrick Harris was cast as Gargamel!?" Oh, did I mention that Neil Patrick Harris was cast as Gargamel?
Ok, Ok, don't get your mushrooms in a bunch, he hasn't really been cast as Gargamel...officially. But some reports do say that the movie will be part live action, part animation. And who better to have as the hapless, evil wizard than Dr. Horrible himself (Neil Patrick they love you!). In addition to Mr. Patrick playing Gargamel (not official), four of the main voice cast members have been revealed, as well as a rough draft of a smurf from the film.
Jonathan Winters, George Lopez, Katy Perry and Alan Cumming will voice Papa Smurf, Grouchy Smurf, Smurfette, and Gusty Smurf respectfully. Fans of the 80’s Smurfs series will appreciate Winters coming back to the smufs, as he voiced multiple characters on the long-running Hanna-Barbera series.Um, Gusty Smurf? I'm sorry, I know I was probably in a fruit loops induced coma most of the time I was watching the Smurfs, but I don't remember Gusty Smurf. But, I'm not really sure who Alan Cumming is either so that should work out just fine. Smurfs. Whats next. A movie about those Smurfing ripoff, little underwater bastards that lived in sea-shells?
Morrision Out.
