Aykroyd, Faris, and Timberlake in Negotiations For Yogi Bear
Cartoon/live action hybrids have had a rocky history. Who Framed Roger Rabbit? was excellent, aided by the fact that it was more of an original story, but films like The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Garfield weren’t that great (although Bill Murray has the kind of laconic, lazy speech that worked well for the morose cat). However, studios aren’t giving up on the style. Entertainment Weekly reports that three stars have signed on for the live action/CG film Yogi Bear . Dan...

If these things lived in a vacuum, it might be a different story. On its own, there's nothing wrong or inherently evil about making a movie based on The Flintstones or Scooby Doo or even Rocky & Bullwinkle . But when you add them all up (and pay attention to the success rate), you start to get a bad taste in your mouth. That's probably why I was so opposed to this update initially. I enjoyed Yogi Bear as a kid, although it wasn't an all-time favorite. And because it has a big presence in the...
