The CGI Smurfs film in production under the careful leadership of the director of Home Alone 3 , Big Momma’s House , Scooby Doo 1 & 2 , and Beverly Hills Chihuahua will almost certainly be unwatchable to anyone with a fully developed skull. That goes without saying. But will it at least manage to retain the basic appearance of the blue-skinned, shirtless, Phrygian-capped figures that we know so well? We have our answer: yeah, probably. UGO (full body photo there, if you’re a pervert) has acquired what appears to be an on old camera phone’s photo of a xerox of one the designs of one of the creatures, and, though it departs slightly from the prematurely released teaser poster –primarily in that it adds enough fine detail that it kind reminds me of naked Verne Troyer –it also still looks like a Smurf. In summary: the Smurfs movie Smurfs will look basically like Smurfs. But also sort of like gross little dwarfs.

We’ve taken the next logical step forward from Stephen King’s Christine . A movie about a killer tire that’s decent enough to admit there is absolutely no rationale for its premise: Robert, a tire that has been abandoned in the desert, suddenly comes to life, for no reason. He learns how to get around, explores the desert and discovers in himself a passion for destroying insects and various lost items. Robert soon develops a telepathic gift, which gives him the ability to destroy anything he wants, without moving… What really concerns me about this foe is that he can destroy anything he wants… without moving. How to stop a killer tire if not through physical restraint? TwitchFilm has more photos from Rubber . At least one is not safe for work if your workplace doesn’t allow you to view a woman’s head that’s been so pulverized it looks like an ad for Smucker’s Jam ‘n’ Chunks of Hair. (Thanks, Victor.)

Remember the Tron Legacy teaser , featuring a battle between blue light cycle guy and green light cycle guy? HERE’S YELLOW LIGHT CYCLE GUY. A drastic departure from the previous light cycle guys you’ve seen, yellow light cycle guy is, logically, yellow. How about that, huh? This new breed of light cycle enthusiast comes compliments of MTV , who also has an interview with director Joseph Kosinski, in case you want to read about if he met up with Daft Punk to discuss Tron over pancakes. (He did.)

Good news, Spike Jonze and robot likers: /Film and AICN have some early looks at I’m Here , Jonze’s 30-minute robot love story set to premiere at Sundance. From these few shots alone, it’s already clear the short will feature the director’s famously naturalistic yet ethereal photography and true-to-life emotions mixed with fantastical elements, only now mixed with the terrifying scenario of a world in which robots can love. If robots could love, it would mean I’d have to watch what I say to them at bars so they don’t think I’m flirting with them!

Another perfect take, Rampage Jackson. Everyone else looks concerned, looks forward, logically, because that’s the direction they’re running away from a massive explosion; you just kind of let your gaze drift off to the side and make a dull, slack-jawed half-grin when you catch sight of the crafts service table. Next scene. Every day on set must have been at least this frustrating . More new A-Team photos here .

Remember when an amazing movie like E.T. would become a dismal video game like this that would end up largely buried in a New Mexico landfill ? Relive the days of horrible film-to-video-game adaptations with this gallery of modern films reduced to Atari-level game covers ! CVS/pharmacy is surely already at work on a lawsuit against the Cartridge Video System logo, so hurry.

Continuing our coverage of the week’s most ridiculous film swords , here’s a shot of The Philanthropist holding a novelty-size sword designed to make Braveheart look like an asshole. The photo comes from Ironclad , a British indie being described as a “medieval Seven Samurai ” and which had better contain at least one scene in which James Purefoy slides between a guy’s legs while holding this sword up, perfectly splitting him down the middle, or I know one audience member who’s going to be really, really disappointed.

A Miata? Not bad. I’ve always thought of the Ford Probe as king of outdated sporty ridiculousness, but the Miata certainly holds its own. First Official Photos: MacGruber [/Film]
