Our beloved Smurfs are hitting the big screen this time in full 3D as Columbia Pictures brings back the all blue gang. The evil wizard Gargamel is back with his old back of tricks, chasing the Smurfs away from their village. In the scuttle, Clumsy Smurf tumbles upon a forbidden portal that transported them into our world, right in the middle of Central Park. Realizing their predicament, the Smurfs must find a way to get back into their own world before the evil Gargamel finds them.

Neil Patrick Harris (Doogie Howser, MD, How I Met Your Mother) and Jayma Mays (Epic Movie, Glee) will play as the Smurfs human counterpart. The role of Gargamel will be played by Hank Azaria (America’s Sweethearts, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story) and Sofia Vergara (Soul Plane, Four Brothers) will be Harris’ boss.

Considering that this is the first time our blue pals are going 3D, the producers of the film have made it a point to entertain the audience by giving them a contemporary blend of live action 3D: all of the Smurf’s characters are done in three dimensional and creatively combined in live movie sequences, just like in the movie Avatar, wherein the movie made headlines in the field of visual effects and 3D animation. The new Smurfs movie promises to have the same effect on both quality and realistic interaction between the human characters and the 3D animated Smurfs themselves.

A star studded lineup of talents also abound the movie: aside from the human characters, voice talents of the Smurfs will include radio personality and veteran comedian Jonathan Winters as Papa Smurf. Winters is also the original voice behind the character; George Lopez (The Spy next door, Beverly Hills Chihuahua 1 and 2) as Grouchy Smurf; Canadian actor Gary Barbasa (Law and Order, The Last Temptation of Christ) as Hefty Smurf; British comedian John Oliver as Vanity Smurf and pop sensation Katy Perry rendering her voice as Smurfette.

The Smurfs came about during the late 1950s and was created by Peyo, a Belgian cartoonist. The original version of these characters is still the same as it is today: small, fictional blue characters with different personalities and output in life. During those years, kids are known to be stuck on their television sets watching the Smurfs go about their daily routine in Smurf village. Critics once coined the cartoon as “kiddie cocaine” because, according to those who grew up watching them, is addictive even you watch the same episode over and over again.

With kids as audience, the basic storyline of every Smurf episode (and the comic book as well) revolves on adventure and on some note, daily occurrences such as working and food gathering. The creators of the Smurfs have made it a point to give kids a special notion when it comes to television viewing. In line with this, the creation of these characters is well appropriated to its major viewers: all Smurfs characters tend to be one and the same, with little exception to Smurfette and later on, Sassette. They are 3 apples high and wear white trousers with a hole for their little tail. Although some Smurfs wear a different kind of costume, depending on work and personality like in the case of brainy Smurf who dons a rounded eyeglasses and Papa Smurf, being the eldest, has a beard. The only two “women” Smurf naturally has long blond hair and a gown as part of their costume.

But what really made the Smurfs part of the pop culture during the early to late 80s is its impact to the children. Aside from them being visually friendly, the way writers brought about every episode of the Smurfs should be taken into consideration. Of course there is no negating the fact that the Smurfs are not the only cartoon with the same vision, but it took on a different approach, particularly on the attitude of each of the Smurf characters. In a way, it made an impact to children, implying it to their own selves that if they had the same attitude as Grouchy Smurf, you will tend to be short tempered. Creativity is the trademark of Handy Smurf, so children with a wide imagination can clearly see that Handy Smurf is responsible for the creation of some of Smurf Village’s structures. It was this impact that made the Smurfs back then a sure fire hit among kids and the kids at heart. With that boom, the Smurfs appeared on several advertisements and also has two cereals under their cuddliness: Smurf berries and Smurf Magic Stars.

The Smurfs is set to be released in the US on August 3, 2011 and will bring the same visual elements as that of the Award Winning Avatar. With the advent of live action and 3D animation, the Smurf will surely bring nostalgia back to the big screen.
