again. Simply because I wanted to see how much Hollywood ruined the old cartoons.
Turns out that Hollywood can't ruin the old cartoons in any way.
And also, those smurfs aren't quite as innocent and pure and all things good as they'd have you believe. Yeah, they are actually nasty little blue demons whose only purpose in life seems to be to torment Gargamel.
It's not just Gargamel being the nasty evil wizard who just wants to cause trouble and mayhem just because he feels like. He is actually defending himself agains the smurfs, who are more than happy to make him suffer. Even when he's defenseless. Yes, that's right, I'm referring to the incident in the forest where the smurfs have just soundly beaten Gargamel and his cat and trapped him in the tree. Papa smurf then steps forward saying something along the lines how Gargamel isn't sorry yet.
I simply assumed that Gargamel didn't stand a chance against the smurfs because he was fighting them on their home turf in the forest, and that taking the smurfs out of the forest would only help improve Gargamel's chances against them. At the very least, it might take away some of the magic and strength that the smurfs seems to draw from the forest.
But after seeing some clips of the smurfs movie, I very much doubt that Gargamel will at last be vindicated and defeated them. It still looks as though they're still drawing strength from somewhere. Possibly leeching it from all of the unwary people of New York.
Or maybe Papa Smurf has cast some voodoo witch craft spell that manipulates steals all of Gargamel's good luck and/or fortune and Gargamel himself gets stuck with all of the bad luck/fortune.
Whatever those smurfs are doing, it's clearly evil nasty shenaningans that they want to keep secret so that the world hates Gargamel, and won't think anything of it when his body washes up on some remate river bank.
