you're such an apologist for the studios who have lulled the public into accepting crap, because its easier for a studio to
push junk onto people, rather than convince them to accept better. pixar has been able to convince their audience to demand better. it would be nice if the studios would at least try to do the same.
i didnt say smurfs has to be artsy, but if would be great if they found a director who could pull off a mix of high quality with the mainstream appeal sony would desire. nothing in gosnells resume shows he could do this, case in point, he took arguably the 3rd most popular animated character of all time Scooby doo (behind bugs and mickey) to only $150M and horrid reviews (and the worse-yet sequel proves that point even more)

Those weren't family films. {nm} Jul 08, 17:54
As long as the public eats up crap, the studios will keep making it. {nm} Jul 08, 14:50
Sounds like a safe enough place for him - at least he's not directing any movie I'd want to watch {nm} Jul 08, 13:38
Great director to be attached for this project! [SMURF] {nm} Jul 08, 13:10
