If it's like the Chipmunks movie, then I guess Gargamel will be a real person! Which actor should play him? Any ideas?
And what about his clothes... if it's a real actor - is he going to wear Gargamel's traditional black robe type thing?

Hmmm. That's a great question. I reckon Tom Hanks would make out pretty good as Gargamel if the movie is gonna be live action. As for the costume, I imagine it'll probably look more or less like in the cartoon. Maybe something more in the style of the robes used in Harry Potter.

Tom Hanks does remind me a bit of Gargamel these days..
and..CG Cat or live cat? I'm guessing they'll go for a CG Azrael.

Oh dear. Bringing classic 2D cartoons into the third dimension on the big screen. This was the reason I stayed away from the Alvin & The Chipmunks movie. Somethings were just not meant to be seen in live action mixed with CGI, in my humble opinion.
I might see this if they can cast as many of the original VAs as possible.

I'd be surprised if they somehow come up with technology that would, in a manner of speaking, digitally "resurrect" vocal talent that has passed on, like that of Don Messick (who voiced Papa Smurf in the cartoon show) or Hamilton Camp (who voiced Greedy and Harmony). Of course, it could end up turning the whole movie into a "sacrifical lamb" for that kind of technology, since being the first to have it won't necessarily make it the best the first time out.
But problems with bringing other 2D cartoon properties into CG 3D aside, I'd still say: bring it on!

My, I liked to know that Lucille Bliss is ready to voice sweet Smurfette again! And that Sally "The Flying Nun" Field also will take part! I wonder if Brainy, Clumsy, Grouchy and Jokey shall have the same voices from HB cartoon show too? June Foray's Jokey was super! I also like Frank Welker's work, he's very good. Shall he voice Hefty and Poet again? I'm really curious to watch the final result. Is is true that "real people" will interact with the Smurfs? I don't worry very much what they shall be like in 3-D effect (providing they become as alike the originals as the artists can), but I only hope the people in charge will keep the comics and cartoon spirit. I'm a bit afraid they'll put on something which has nothing to do with it...
