Update: Yogi Bear Teaser Poster & Trailer Hits
Wed, July 28, 2010 UPDATE: As promised, Yahoo! Movies now has the Yogi Bear trailer up. Follow the hyperlink or check out the video below. If you're under eight years-old, you'll eat this up. But everyone else out there better resign themselves to the fact said kid(s) will drag your ass to see this.
Alas for the all the great things they're doing, Warner Brothers didn't take my Yogi Bear pitch to heart. *Sigh*
To be honest, we can't even laugh anymore after two Alvin & the Chipmunk movies earned $200 million each. Cut to rival studios search for cartoons from our childhood they can "shepherd" into a live-action franchise. Sony has The Smurfs for next summer, Fox, of course, has a third Alvin movie next Christmas and WB is doing a film based on that picnic-basket obsessed, clip-on tie wearing bear.
Yahoo! Movies has a "First Look" at the teaser poster, and we should be getting the trailer later today. You've been warned.

I know I'm not the target audience but this looks dreadful.
Yeah this looks like shit, wow
I'm always really surprised about the phrase "parents being dragged" to see these movies. Look, if a person's significant other drags them to "Sex in the City" or "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen", that's one thing. But parents can say "no" to kids. "No, I will not take you to this stupid Hollywood cash in film that will only make you stupider for watching it." Take them to Toy Story 3 again, or rent them one of the other hundreds of great children films on DVD. It's the parents fault these films keep getting made.
Oh wow, this looks hideous.
BOO! BOO! (you see what I did there?)
