Yes…the title pretty much says it all. The blue things will hit the big screen 3rd August 2011, and will feature all the original people can remember. Surprisingly this got huge insane buzz during a Sony presentation of upcoming movies, and honestly the graphics are looking pretty amazing.

In the film the blue 3D trio (gives the idea this will be in 3D) along with Smurfette, Brainy and newby Gutsy are accidentally transported from their village to New York where they find themselves on the run from evil magician Gargamel. But, Gargamel no longer wants to eat the smurfs.

Director Raja Gosnell told USA Today, “We all wondered whether we would be making a family version of Sweeney Todd.” Instead he plans to use them to harness his own magical powers.
