The first trailer for Yogi Bear is out, and so far it appears to be a movie that the kids will love, and the adults will grudgingly sit through. It stars the voice talents of Dan Aykroyd as Yogi and Justin Timberlake as Boo Boo. Tom Cavanagh aka Ed plays Ranger Smith.
Not to detract from the movie more, but I'm really not a fan of the CGI animation combined into a live-action film, ala the Chipmunks. And do we really need to see a couple of rotund bears pulling off their shenanigans in 3D?
On the upside, anything that gets people, kids in particular, thinking and talking about saving state parks is a good thing. The film will also feature Rabid Rider, the third of three new Looney Tunes shorts. The first two were apparently pretty good.
The verdict: the film will be no pic-a-nic for adults to sit through, but the kids will love the over-the-top gags.
