In August 2011, Bob Iger announce that is looking to buy either new characters or bussinesses that are capable to create great characters and great stories. but, in November 2009, Disney began restructuring the company to focus more on family friendly products. as in September 2011, Disney Parks gets Avatar. so Disney will buy the Avatar Jr.-THE SMURFS.

That's Right, Papa Smurf and Smurfette becomes Mickey Mouse's company into more Family Friendly Company.

Also The Smurfs really as well as Disney characters.

Robert Iger will buy them from Belgian and signing the contract of The Culliford Family and moved the family from Belgian to Burbank California and securing the TV rights from Hanna-Barbera, Theme Park rights from former properties Cedar Fair and Universal Studios Theme Park, and Movie rights from Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures Animation.

and i made my petition if you want to sign it Now in Change.org
also i send a mail to Jim Hill Media for a rumor.

What do you think? :banana:
 
Is there a third option to buy them and get rid of them completely? It would be Disney's way to give back to the world and make it better place. :) I'm on that bandwagon.

I'm thinking you could re-do the Germany pavilion in EPCOT, bag the whole caramel goodness, and have blue smurf candies.

I hear you could probably buy Scrappy Doo from Hanna Barbera for cheap also. There's an endless supply of really bad characters out there.
 
The whole things sucks smurf berries if you ask me!
 
If you strangle a Smurf, what color does it turn into (since it's already blue)?
 

The best and only acceptable option for the poll is none of the above!
 
I would love to see them buy Barney... then make a movie... Figment vs. Barney... Killing of Barney! :)
 
This is just one bad idea from the start, I didnt even see the Smurf movie last year because I keept hearing it was horrible from the Parents who took their kids to see it, and personally I think it makes the Alvin and the Chipmunk films look better in comparison.

Long story short I don't think Disney is going to buy something that won't help them get any profits. (Also wasn't Marvel Dubailand called off after Disney bought Marvel?)
 
Why not buy the Willy Wonka franchise as well. Mash them together and make the smurfs be oompa loompas
