La-La-La-La-La...BOOM!


I find this amusing on so many different levels.

First of all, I'm a little miffed that the Belgians still get to enjoy this quality cartoon, and we've been cut off. Secondly, I never knew it was created by Belgians, so...there you go!

I was slightly amused at the quote "UNICEF traditionally uses real life images of playing and laughing children but decided to change it for something that would shock people." I find it ironic that it takes the theoretical destruction of mythical blue creatures to shock people out of apathy. I suppose the real thing just doesn't cut it. But mess with the Smurfs, oh that's a whole new issue!


I wonder if Gargamel had anything to do with this? He's been hard at work in his cave!! Speaking of which, does anyone remember the name of his cat? I could go look it up, but I'm curious if anyone knows off-hand. Okay, back to the picture/article. Smurfette lost her shoe, which always intrigued me. Why the heels? I would think she would get tired of wearing heals all the time. You would think Brainy Smurf would have done something or had some anti-weapon device to combat this. I wonder which Smurf is beckoning to Baby Smurf?

The cat's name was Azreal, or something.

The smurfs represent a collectivist society sparking a debate on dialectical materialism in a post-modern art form.

Freakin' blue commies...
