Our World is About to Get Smurf'd (taglines)
Papa Smurf
edit- Not this time, Gargamel.
- I am five hundred and forty-six years old.
- Is a Smurf's butt blue?
Brainy
edit- That's gonna leave a big blue bruise.
- [as he is falling] GOODBYE, BLUE WORLD!
Clumsy
edit- Keep your Smurfs to yourselves!
- Just because your name is Grouchy does not mean that you always have to be grouchy.
Smurfette
edit- I can have more than one kind of dress? WHAT?!
- [after caging Azrael] You Smurfed with the wrong girl.
Grouchy
edit- [referring to Clumsy] Why are we listening to him? He just got us sucked through a giant hole.
- Hey! I am walking here!
- Don't ever forget that one magical moment our two worlds met. And I wasn't grouchy! I was not! [pause] Can you just say one thing please? I am dying here.
- Welcome to my world.
Gutsy
edit- [repeated line] SMURFABUNGA!!!
- [after Patrick swears in Smurf language] There is no call for that kind of language, Laddie!
- I will not soon forget this place. Especially not with these! [turns around and he is wearing "I love New York" underwear]
Gargamel
edit- [repeated line] Azrael? Are you dead?
- [getting his net caught in a tree] Let go! Cursed nature!
- Come to papa, Papa!
Dialogue
edit- [after Gargamel runs headlong into the back of a stopped cab, the Smurfs laughed at him as the cab starts moving again and pulled away]
- Grouchy: Knock yourself out, Gargamel!
- Gutsy: You have had that coming for about thirty years!
- Gargamel: SMURFS!!!!!!!! [as a Anjelou card flew by from the bumper and he grabs it]
- [Gargamel looks for a laboratory in New York City and spots a port-a-potty]
- Gargamel: [impressed] Oh. Yes. It's a bit small, but it should do nicely! [climbs into the port-a-potty with Azrael] Oh, it's even got its own cauldron!
- [a gurgling sound can be heard]
- Gargamel: What died in here? [the port-a-potty shakes and thumping sounds can be heard] OPEN, OPEN, OPEN, OPEN, OPEN, OPEN!
- [Gargamel and Azrael finally fall out, dizzy and confused]
- Gargamel: [choking] Somebody's been working a dark and terrible magic in there! [coughs in disgust]
- Patrick: Grace, we're being attacked! Do not be fooled by their cuteness!
- Grace: It's okay, it's okay. [cuts to the Smurfs gathered around her bare feet; so close that they can smell her toes] They're friendly.
- Gutsy: [hops down] You're lucky your lassie stepped in. I was about to make haggis with your innards.
- Gargamel: [he and Azrael walk around New York, searching for the Smurfs] We must find this Smurf thief. [Azrael meows] Ah, stop your complaining. If I were a Smurf, where would I go? [spots a businessman talking on the phone and approaches him] You there, you there! Fancy pants! Have you seen any little blue men?
- Businessman: [on the phone] Absolutely, what price are we talking about?
- Gargamel: You're selling them?
- [a woman talking on the phone walks by, Gargamel follows her.]
- Woman: [on the phone] Have you looked in the drawer, sweetie?
- Gargamel: [to the woman] Wait, what drawer?
- Woman: [on the phone] In the kitchen, Lily.
- Gargamel: Who is this Lily?
- [a man also talking on the phone walks by.]
- Man: [on the phone] Are you kidding? She's like the hottest girl in my apartment.
- Gargamel: [stops the man] Please, please. Please, young woodsman. What does the temperature of this Lily have to do with the finding of Smurfs?
- Man: [to Gargamel] Take your meds, man. [walks away]
- Gargamel: [confused] What? I, I... [shouts] IS EVERYONE IN THIS REALM COMPLETELY INSANE?! [spots a peddlar] Oh, thank the gods. A local wizard. Excellent. [to the peddlar] Eh pardon me, wise sir? By any chance, have you seen any little blue men?
- Peddlar: They're everywhere! [laughs maniacally and walks away]
- Gargamel: I knew it. I knew it! I told you we were close, Azrael!
- Azrael: [unenthusiastically] I know.
- Patrick: Oh by the way, I wouldn't go anywhere if I were you.
- Smurfette: Well, why not?
- Patrick: Because our world doesn't really do well with people from other places. I mean, look what happened to E.T.! [The Smurfs look at Patrick, confused] It's a movie. A moving picture? Book? Just stay. Okay? [walks out the door]
- Grace: How can you be the only girl in the village?
- Smurfette: Well see, I wasn't brought by a stork like the others. I was created by Gargamel to trap the other Smurfs.
- Grace: Wow! And then what happened?
- Smurfette: Papa saved me. He cast a special spell, and then helped become the Smurf I was meant to be.
- [Papa Smurf is analyzing the night sky via stargazer, as Patrick makes for the roof with 2 cups of coffee in both his hands]
- Patrick: Hey. I'm guessing you have a long night ahead of you. You guys drink coffee.
- Papa: Ha ha! Is a Smurf's butt blue?
- Patrick: So tell me, that weird guy in the ratty bathrobe at the toy store...
- Papa: Gargamel?
- Patrick: He's not really a wizard, is he?
- Papa: Not the smartest of sorcerers, but dangerous just the same. [Patrick puts down one cup of coffee] Thank you. [he slurps through a straw] Back home, I could hold him at bay with a spell or 2. But here, without my books and potions... Well, today, we got lucky. But next time, who knows?
- Patrick: What are you gonna do?
- Papa: I'll do anything and everything I can do to get my Smurfs home. I won't ever give up. They're my family. And you never give up on family.
- Patrick: Doesn't it freak you out sometimes? Having all those little guys depending on you? I mean, what if you screw up? How do you know when you were ready?
- Papa: [chuckles] Here, come sit on Papa's lap. [pause] Uh, yeah, right. Scratch that.
- Patrick: Probably not the best idea.
- Papa: Yeah, yeah. Lemme ask you something. Why did you come for us today when your Grace called?
- Patrick: Because she needed me. I could hear it in her voice.
- Papa: Uh-huh. [stands up] Well, that's what being a papa is: when it comes time, you just do. And knowing what to do doesn't come from up here. [points to his head, then jumps down] Mm-mm. [gestures to Patrick's chest] It comes from here, where it matters most.
- Patrick: My spleen?
- Papa: No, your heart. I'm tryin' to have a moment here, you whippersnapper. [laughs]
- Patrick: You're a good papa, Papa.
- Papa: And you'll be a good one too. [he and Patrick stare at the night sky]
- [the 4 remaining Smurfs fall down a lead pipe]
- Brainy: What's gonna happen to Papa?
- Grouchy: Papa told us to Smurf the moon and that's exactly what we're gonna do.
- Gutsy: Come on, we don't have much time.
- Brainy: "Come on"? Come on where?
- Smurfette: How are we gonna get back to Clumsy?
- Gutsy: [spots a flock of pigeons] We ride. Come on! [hops on one of them] Be still, bird!
- Grouchy: I don't think they're friendly.
- Gutsy: Well, neither am I!
- Brainy: But they carry disease.
- Gutsy: Yah! And Smurfs! Let's ride!
- Grouchy: Whoa, bird! Whoa!
- Smurfette: [to Brainy] Come on!
- Brainy: But I'm not sure I can do this. [jumps and grabs a pigeon by its talons]
- Smurfette: [offscreen] You can do it, Brainy! Hold on!
- Brainy: [flying out of control] According to my calculations, this is dangerous!!!
- [the 4 Smurfs fly in the window on the backs of pigeons]
- Gutsy: That'll do, pigeon.
- Smurfette: Thank you, bird.
- Brainy: Look! We got the incantation!
- Patrick: Where's Papa?
- Grouchy: Gargamel's got him.
- Patrick: What?
- Clumsy: [gasps in fear] Oh no!
- Smurfette: He took him to some place called "BellVeedaRay Castle".
- Grouchy: He's gonna... [Smurfette sobs]
- Gutsy: [sadly] Don't say it.
- Grace: "BellVeedaRay"? What is "BellVeedaRay"?
- Patrick: Belved-- He's taken him to Belvedere Castle in Central Park.
- Brainy: To extract his essence!
- Grace: [surprised] WHAT?! W-We have to go get him!
- Smurfette: No! Gargamel's more powerful than ever!
- Gutsy: Papa said no matter what happens, we're not to go back for him. He's tryin' to protect us.
- Clumsy: No! We can't leave Papa behind.
- Gutsy: It was a Smurf promise.
- Clumsy: No, no, no! We can't!
- Brainy: We promised Papa we'd do exactly what he said.
- Grouchy: That's right.
- Patrick: I didn't. [the Smurfs turn to Patrick] I never promised him anything. [walks out]
- Clumsy: Neither did I. And there is no way I'm leaving here without Papa.
- Grace: [follows Patrick] Patrick, wait! I'm coming with you!
- [Clumsy looks over the other Smurfs (minus Papa) for an answer]
- Grouchy: I'm in! [Elway barks in agreement]
- [the Smurfs turn to Gutsy]
- Gutsy: Aye, me too. [Clumsy smiles] No Smurf left behind. Not Papa, and not you.
- Smurfs: ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR SMURF!!!
- Smurfette: [climbs up] Oh, Papa! [runs to Papa]
- Papa: No. No, Smurfette.
- Smurfette: [referring to Gargamel] What did he do to you?
- Papa: You shouldn't have come back for me.
- Smurfette: Papa, I'm getting you out of here right now! [grabs a screw and struggles to break the box open]
- Hefty: Clumsy, you little mook, you! [shoulder-bumps Clumsy]
- Brainy: [sees Papa coming] Shh, shh, shh. It's Papa.
- Papa: I owe you an apology, Clumsy. I believed more in a vision than I did in you. [hugs Clumsy] I'm so proud of you, Clumsy.
- Clumsy: Thanks, Papa.
- Grouchy: [tearfully] I promised myself I wouldn't cry.
- Papa: And now to get rid of this! [snaps the dragon wand in half and throws it in the water]
