The Smurfs have been making their way to the big screen for a while, but it now looks like they’ll be arriving in 3-D.

Columbia Pictures is planning to release the CG/live-action hybrid, known now as Smurfs 3-D, on Dec. 17, 2010, according to ComingSoon.net.

The film, to be directed by Colin Brady from a script by David Stern and David Weiss, is based on the comic strip characters created by Belgian artist Peyo. The strip inspired countless toys, accessories and a popular 1980s animated TV series.

    Nooooo! The Smurfs do not need 3D treatment. 2D Smurfs = cute. CG Smurfs = little blue devils I would step on if I saw in real life. What\'s next, The Snorks? Wuzzles?
