So it’s official! On October 23, 1958, the Smurfs were introduced to the world. Now, 50 years later, those little blue guys are still kickin’ it! Happy Anniversary, Smurfs!

I never realized the Smurfs’ birthday are two days before mine! Maybe that’s why I have such a strong connection to them.

But I’m not 50. Yet.

Here are some Smurfy pictures my friend SPUNK MONK sent me from his recent trip to Las Vegas. The Smurfs have their own display there at FAO Schwartz. Viva Smurf Vegas!

If you have any Smurfy pics, e-mail them to me and I will add them to my blog and my Flickr. Until then, enjoy the rest of these pics. Smurfs FTW!

So there’s been some changes to the upcoming Smurfs movie which will happen… sometime in the future. First off, it’s now going to be released through Sony/Columbia Pictures, who bought the rights from Paramount/Nickelodeon.

Second, the all-CGI feature idea has been scrapped for a live-action/CGI hybrid similar to the Alvin and the Chipmunks movie (I swear to God, if you put a Smurf with Snoop Dogg, heads will roll…)

Here’s an article with all the details. So I guess now the big question is, if the humans in the Smurfs movie will be live-action, who will play Gargamel?

Man, it’s taking forever to make this movie! Looks like Smurfs: The Movie has a nice cushy seat in Development Hell. Say hi to Wonder Woman: The Movie while you’re down there, will ya?

Here’s a wonderful article I found mentioned on ToonZone.net, discussing the fact that the leader of the Smurf family was removed from a write-in ballot for Dodge County’s 29th District seat in Wisconsin.

I call foul. Papa Smurf is old enough. He’s 542 years old for goodness sake. And he’s an American (Now we know where Smurf Village is. It’s in Wisconsin. And all this time, I’ve been searching South Dakota). This was Papa’s beginning to his path of becoming the first blue president in 2016, and now his chances are ruined.

Wisconsin don’t care about blue people.
Here’s the article from the Fond du Lac Reporter

Congratulations to my favorite cartoon and collectibles, the Smurfs! This year, they will be celebrating their 50th anniversary of being in this world! And what a celebration it will be. There are plans for a new CGI animated movie, a possible series afterwards, the release of the original cartoons on DVD, new comics and collectibles, and get this… possibly even new female Smurfs! Could Smurfette finally have some competition?

So if you watch Smurf Village, you will notice the call for Smurfy pics. It’s true! If you email me links to your pictures or videos of you that are Smurf-related, then you could get mentioned on future Black Nerd Comedy Vlogs ‘n Videos! It’s like Cute With Chris, but with Smurfs!
