First 'Yogi Bear' poster does what it can

What is there to say about the first Yogi Bear poster that has arrived, except either it makes you smile or it doesn't. I personally have no particular affinity for the character, so the poster isn't doing a whole lot for me; in fact it's rather lame. But so did Alvin and the Chipmunks and that made a fortune, so what do I know? This is why I'm writing about movies and not greenlighting them.


Dan Aykroyd voices Yogi Bear, and Justin Timberlake his side-kick Boo Boo, while both characters will be CG creations. TJ Miller, Tom Cavanagh and Anna Faris all co-star in the live-action adaptation of the Hanna-Barbara cartoon, which was directed by Eric Brevig (Journey to the Center of he Earth).

Here's the very predictable official synopsis for Yogi Bear: Jellystone Park has been losing business, so greedy Mayor Brown decides to shut it down and sell the land. That means families will no longer be able to experience the natural beauty of the outdoors -- and, even worse, Yogi and Boo Boo will be tossed out of the only home they've ever known. Faced with his biggest challenge ever, Yogi must prove that he really is "smarter than the average bear" as he and Boo Boo join forces with their old nemesis Ranger Smith to find a way to save Jellystone Park from closing forever.

Yogi Bear comes out on December 17th.
