Wasn't "Smurfy Hollow" supposed to be included with the DVD? I thought I saw a lot of promotion for that tie-in until just this month. Now all of a sudden it seems to be unhinged from the DVD, released on its own and rushed to air on Disney's ABC Family network next month. I don't remember "Smurf Christmas Carol" being separated from the first DVD.
If that was truly so, that does not bode well for the crew at Sony Animation, which has been trying to expand into traditional 2D work.
Any clarification on this is appreciated. I trust our friend Sassette is up to smurf on these things. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

I was just thinking, the only way they're going to get the Smurfs as a 2D animated feature to play in any theatre, aside from doing a whole continuity reboot, is to have them be like how Disney used to air their cartoon features before certain other family movies. The last time I remember them doing that is back in the early 1990s, when Disney through Touchstone was releasing Roger Rabbit features before other movies, like Dick Tracy. The only problem that I can see is that Peyo Creations needs to be in constant contact with an animation studio in order to help keep the franchise alive, or else it's going to end up rotting along with every other franchise that doesn't have its creator at the helm directing it.
That was the secret to the enduring popularity of the Hanna-Barbera TV series. Peyo himself and his company worked hand-in-hand with H-B its entire run, which gave the show a higher quality than other cartoons H-B was making at the time. It was NBC's meddling with the format in the much-maligned Season 9 that finally killed the show. (The network had just picked up the time-travel drama "Quantum Leap", and that may have influenced IMO the dreadful format change.)
I don't know how involved Peyo's son Thierry Culliford (Peyo Jr.) was in this latest movie, but from the unsmurfy rants I've head from my friends who walked out on "Smurfs 2" with their kids in tow because they were shocked at the high level of low-brow humor, I could only guess he let Sony have free rein to let the Smurfs be re-imagined for a new generation of fans accustomed to "Family Guy" and Adult Swim. I'm just stunned at how quickly it came and went at the box office.
Anyone got 100 million euros lying around so I can buy Peyo Creations (LOL) and get this buggah smurfed around?

Wowzers... Vexy Smurf's post-Naughtie hairdo and purple top look a lot like my iteration of her (see Smurf Art Showcase), and I never saw the movie.
And never having seen "Smurfs 2", is Hackus the dumb one of the two? He looks like he's impulsive and acts a lot like Cookie Monster, and poor Vex always has to bail him out of a jam. ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

I agree, TV channels shouldn't meddle around with the show's creators like that and I personally think someone or some company make a new smurfs cartoon show, kinda like a revival. How does that sound?

It would be cool that Veronique Culliford sign agreement with Disney to make a new Smurfs cartoon show, produced by DHX Media Vancouver(formerly Studio B Production). This would become into a Internet Memes and create a new fandom to compete with Bronies (Fandom of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic), and create a Convention similar to BronyCon, and appear in D23 Expo.

I totally agree! It would carry on the smurfs tradition, even the way Peyo intended it to be !!! and Welcome to Bluebuddies, Oscar 95!! ![[Graduate Smurf]](graemlins/graduate.gif)

Studio Peyo either partnering with Disney or even being bought out by them would IMO be the best thing to happen to our friends since Peyo parnered with Hanna-Barbera three decades ago. Apparently that has been an internet meme and/or rumor since the first Smurfs move. Until such a thing is actually reported in the news media, don't hold your smurf. Remember what Abe Lincoln said about quotes on the internet.
Disney at one time held the rights to Marsupilami, created by one of Peyo's friends, and ended up being dragged into endless lawsuits because Marsu's creator felt Disney pretty much butchered the little guy and didn't know how to market him. However, Disney was at the time run by Michael Eisner, and today under Bob Iger's leadership the company is far more cooperative and friendly with outside properties.
Seeing Papa Smurf and Smurfette hanging out with Mickey and Minnie at Disneyland would be a smurfy idea. But until an actual deal is struck and reported by CNN or ET, I'm not getting excited.

Do a Google search on "disney smurfs deal", "disney smurfs talks" or "disney buys smurfs". Apparently some Smurf fans think they're all true. But remember Abe Lincoln.

If Disney buys the Smurfs it means ESPN could have Smurf mascots on Bronco Stadium's SMURF TURF (it's a blue field in Boise)

OK Today marks the day that The Smurfs 2 finally landed on Thailand!
But really it's certain to know i'm going to watch yet another disappointing smurfs movie considering I already watched The Legend of Smurfy Hollow few time already...
But i'm going to watch anyway can't wait to see how many people are going to watch it since the launch of The Smurfs Thailand were severely affected by Thailand big flooding that span almost three months (Late September-November 2011)

It would be a cold day in Hades before we ever see the Culliford family give up their prize characters to someone like Disney.

I still wondering why can't they just made it in-house like any other studios in Europe?
Maybe they can't afford that...
OK at least give it to the company who cares about the property and not milking the hell out of it.
(like Sony doing now) and put their faithful movie on the bench,never to get the spotlight to be shine on it so now in the eyes of most people it's going to be those big movies that got all the rep
very bad rep...
While their gaming division plowed through all obstacles their movies division have now made nothing but bad movies yes they made good movies as well but the bad seemed to outweighs the goods.

The world of video gaming is where the Smurfs have really taken off, as evidenced with the popularity of the Smurf Village online game and The Smurfs and Company. There seems to be some fidelity to what would be called the Smurf canon. Just as with my own fan comics, all the characters from the comic, TV and film universes come together to create one happy smurfy setting.
As for Studio Peyo trying to produce new animated content themselves, it might not happen in the near future. It's primarily a comic book publisher, and nowhere as big as Marvel or DC. The last time they tried to animate their own Smurfs was the infamous 2005 UNICEF television ad where the Smurf Village was bombed to supposedly shock people into demanding an end to child soldiers in Africa, and it became an epic fail that haunts Studio Peyo to this day.
Finally, it seems that the studio just let Sony re-imagine and reinterpret the Smurfs however they wanted for a new generation of North American fans not familiar with the little fellers. And it seems that the writers' only experience with the Smurfs was the notorious "Smurfette Show" satire on "Saturday Night Live". Unless Studio Peyo gets personally involved with a future "Smurfs 3" and goes back to basics on their characters, I don't expect a full trilogy to be completed, let alone redeem itself with a better sequel.
As for a studio that really cares about the source material, unfortunately Hanna-Barbera doesn't exist anymore, and my own little studio Newport Muse is just a one-man operation. But you never really know...
