Besides an obviously inappropriate crush on Smurfette and an obsession with the ColecoVision video game, I had little to no interest in the Smurf franchise as a kid. If I was gonna roll with some odd little forest creatures in a fantastical universe, I was rolling with the Gummi Bears. And I'm not even sure that today's generation of kids are even all that aware of who or what a Smurf is. But that's all about to change as next year Sony is releasing the animated film THE SMURFS in 3D. I'm sure a teaser trailer of some sort will be attached to CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS (the next film from Sony Pictures Animation) in a few weeks but for now we get a look at the teaser poster. It first ran in a magazine and was scanned by Smurf fansite (ahem...) PVC Blue. Check it out below... Extra Tidbit: Smurfette was originally created by Gargamel as an evil Smurf. When she turned good her hair went from black to blonde.
