I was born in 1983 and the Smurfs was one of those staples of my childhood. I loved Smurfette because, let's face it, she was the only chick in the whole village. I was the only girl with three brothers- so I could relate to being the lone female. As a kid I was pretty distressed when the Smurfs got canceled, and I channeled my young anger on the usurper- apparently Gumby had taken the time slot. So needless to say, I grimaced when I found out about the new movie. You just don't mess with someone's childhood- that sense of innocence and wonder.
I can see myself passing on the upcoming movie- the probability of corny lines and forced plot is too high. I love nostalgia, I do, but I doubt this will be the smurfs I know and love.
And while it's an older sketch of mine- it's been ages since I've annoyed the Curve Zone with my comics:
