    Yeah, the movie could be a hot mess. Or it could be awesome. But before everyone freaks out:

    1. This movie is being creatively controlled by Peyo's (the original creator's) family and the current Belgian owners.

    2. The Smurfs folks have wanted to make a feature-length film for years and were waiting for the perfect confluence of events (creative, financial, otherwise) to come together.

    Next they're going to rummage through our attics and try to make a movie adaptation of out of our old coloring books! Leave my childhood alone Hollywood! What's next, a He-Man remake? Thundercats? The Get-a-Long-Gang? Is nothing sacred?

    @nyc-caribbean-ragazza: I was going to type something like "And next up: Candyland the Movie, starring Anne Hathaway as Princess Lolly and Johnny Depp as Lord Licorice! HAW HAW HAW!"

    And then a quick Google search told me that there is actually a Candyland movie in production. Dog help us all.

    This reminds me of that article that was in the Onion about a Thundercats movie being produced by Michael Bay. In it he says, "I just want to fuck it up royally. I love ruining your childhood memories with loud explosions and cgi graphics lacking plot".

    i REALLY doubt her manager and or agent wants her to do this, so if this is true, she is doing this on her own accord. she is willing to throw away her career to save chris'. that is just incredibly sad. riri, even if you have a low opinion of yourself which is glaring obvious, at least fake it. this man is willing to throw you underneath the bus to remain on top and you're still with him?

    first off, hello ladies! i miss ya all, i was on vacation in tropical OHIO but im back to my boring, everyday life at home now!


    second, this is disgusting. their audience is mostly young people (tweens & teenagers). what a dangerous message to send to them..."its okay to hit your girlfriend/boyfriend sometimes...when youre really mad! he made a mistake & were so in love & no one understands our relationship!"
    i made a decision not to listen to chris brown ever again, and i think ill do the same to rihanna.

    What could have become a powerful reminder to American's that women are still abused, and a powerful message to women who are abused that you're not alone and there are things that can be done to stop the abuse, is instead going to turn into tabloid fodder. "Chris beats Rihanna again". "Rihanna is wearing dark glasses. Could she and Chris have been at it again?" "Rihanna's bruises: where did they come from?"


    The trivialization of domestic abuse. This makes me so sad.

    @bea_arthur: Yes, exactly. This verbalizes precisely what about this added such an extra ick factor for me. Not that the story alone isn't enough to make me ill, and the glamorizing/romanticizing is even worse, but this is the last piece in the sad sick puzzle.


    They will make up some hideous nickname for it ("hubby bumps," to go with "baby bumps?"), pictures with arrows pointing to possible bruises, but all next to ads for stars' diets and and more pics of Brangelina (or whatever new celebrity they've renamed.)

    So we can tsk at it and turn the page.


    Gah, I need a unicorn chaser. Or maybe just some whisky, no chaser.
