One Thought On the Poster For the SMURFS Movie

If a big studio is going to put out its first poster for a big-budget CGI movie version of The Smurfs, shouldn’t it look like something other than the low-quality plastic Smurfs action figures we owned as kids? (Maybe not. Part of the appeal of CGI is that it does kind of make everything look like toys. We know what the first big hit CGI movie franchise was, after all.)

I am not really interested in trying to figure out which Smurf that is supposed to be.
