What's the 3D like in the film? I only saw it in 2D on Wednesday but I'm going again tomorrow night, taking my nephew to see it and I'll be going to a 3D showing this time.

The 3D is so High-Definition, and I leaned backward when objects come closer than they appear.

I would like to see more of Smurfette as the Action Girl rather than the overly weepy Distressed Damsel that Hanna-Barberra and Lucille Bliss stuck her as. The writers really gave Smurfette some long-needed Girl Power to deal with Azrael by herself.

At last I watched the movie today with my sister and nephew, in 3D!! I loved it, despite some toilet humor (what I had feared so much - eg when Azrael falls onto Gargamel's face: "Azrael, do not f*rt"). Still, the effects are awesome and the friendship between the Smurfs and the human couple is simply adorable. ![[Happy Smurf]](graemlins/Happy_Smurf.gif)

And finally, a curiosity: Orlando Drummond, the actor who dubbed Papa Smurf in the movie (Brazilian version), was the same that voiced Gargamel in the Hanna-Barbera cartoons (idem)!! ![[Gargamel]](graemlins/gargamel.gif)

In speaking of Smurfette, I wonder how long will we have to wait until Papercutz will release the English adaptation of La Grande Schtroumpfette. With the pace the Smurf comic volumes are released (one volume every two months), it will be early 2015 until we see it released. I cannot wait that long, and it would be better for Papercutz to release two volumes every few months.
I do not mind Smurfette's personality as long it does not conform to political correctness as she is a product of a different generation and culture (Peyo is Belgian, not American).

Foreign box office gets Smurfed!
Around-the-World Roundup: Foreign Box Office Gets 'Smurfed'
Further solidifying its foreign drawing power, The Smurfs unseated four-time champ Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 to take the top spot this weekend. Rise of the Planet of the Apes also put up mighty numbers, while Transformers: Dark of the Moon made another major move on the all-time worldwide chart.
The Smurfs earned an estimated $60 million from 44 territories. That included a potent $12.5 million in China, which ranked in the all-time Top Ten for non-Chinese movies, according to distributor Sony Pictures International. It also opened well in the United Kingdom ($6.6 million), Russia ($4.5 million) and South Korea ($2.5 million). It also had strong holds in Brazil ($5.3 million) and Germany ($4.6 million), dropping 25 and 28 percent, respectively. The Smurfs has already made $141.1 million overseas for a worldwide (domestic plus foreign) total of $242.6 million and should continue to play well throughout the rest of the Summer.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes expanded in to 39 markets and grossed $39.8 million. The Apes had impressive first place starts in the U.K. ($9.65 million), France ($8.7 million) and Germany ($4.6 million). With a $74.4 million foreign total, Apes is set to expand to South Korea next weekend with Brazil and Mexico opening in the following weeks.
Settling for third, Harry Potter still tacked on an estimated $30 million from 61 territories to bring its foreign total to a phenomenal $857.8 million. While its second weekend figures from China aren't currently available, it did jump nine percent to $5.2 million in Japan thanks to the Obon holidays. On Sunday, Potter's worldwide total passed $1.2 billion.
After languishing at the bottom of the charts for a while, Green Lantern rocketed back on to the scene with $14.2 million in 28 markets. It debuted in first place in Mexico with $4.3 million and also had a $3.1 million debut in Australia. It was scheduled to open in France this weekend, though Warner Bros. did not include those figures in their report. The movie has now made a paltry $61.6 million overseas, but at least it still has openings in Brazil and Japan to look forward to.
Cars 2 slowed 44 percent to $13.1 million for a $290 million total. On a worldwide basis, it passed the first Cars late last week and has now made $476 million.
Transformers: Dark of the Moon eased 41 percent to $12.5 million from 62 territories. It added $4.7 million in China to bring its total to a whopping $151.1 million. It also slid just 5 percent to $4.6 million in Japan due to the holidays there. Over the weekend, Transformers passed Toy Story 3 and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest to take fifth place on the all-time worldwide chart with $1.071 billion.
Without any major openings, Captain America: The First Avenger fell 53 percent to $12.2 million for an overseas total of $128.3 million. It expands to France, Germany and a handful of other European countries next weekend. Super 8, another Paramount Pictures International release, added $9.5 million for a total of $94.5 million. It had a weak $1.2 million opening in Brazil and is set to launch in Spain next weekend.
Cowboys & Aliens had its first foreign openings this weekend, grossing an estimated $7 million from 14 locations. That included a decent $2.8 million in Russia and an unimpressive $1.1 million in South Korea. Next weekend, the movie expands to eight more markets, including the U.K. and Australia.

Have you ever seen a little vignette of Smurfs floating through space with candies floating along with them in 3D? About 20 seconds into a news video on Peyo's exhibition on Smurfs in Paris, you will find this 4 second snippet.
Retrospective Looks Back at Smurf's Creator Peyo Please contact anyone to find the full vignette and to see if it would end up in Sony's 3D Blu-Ray demo reel.

Great news! I wonder what its final box office gross will be before it stops showing in cinemas. There's still a few countries left it needs to open in during the next few weeks, I predict it will finish with something between $400-450 million worldwide.
