11.06.09 YOGI BEAR MOVIE GETS CAST
(Picnic Bear is Yogi Bear’s cousin. He doesn’t steal picnic baskets, he just waits patiently for someone to show up with one)
Anna Faris, Justin Timberlake, and Dan Aykroyd have joined the cast of WB’s CGI/live action Yogi Bear movie, to be directed by Journey to the Center of The Earth director Eric Brevig.
Faris will play a nature documentarian who follows the antics of a bear in fictional Jellystone Park. Aykroyd will voice Yogi, and Timberlake could end up lending his pipes for Yogi’s constant companion, Boo Boo. [THR]
I always sort of liked Yogi Bear. I always sort of liked Anna Faris and Justin Timberlake and Dan Aykroyd too. So why am I not excited for this? Probably because when they CGI old cartoons and mix it with live action, it tends to look like this:
Does that appeal to anyone over the age of 10? No. Which means I’ll probably end up taking a date to this, but I won’t be happy about it.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie as Ranger and Mrs. Smith?
Justin’s bringing picnicback.
Can Akroyd actually do Yogi’s voice or is this just going to be Ray Stantz as Yogi?
If that’s the case, then I want Ray as Vigo as Yogi.
Vy am I covered vit Boo-Boo?
Picnic bear wouldn’t look so lonely if he were playing solitaire. Weird, huh?
Donk, I think you’re actually doing Ray as Yannesh(sp?) as Vigo as Yogi.

Justin wants to steal your pic-a-nic basket so he can put his dick in it.
So this answers the age-old question. Yes, Justin Timberlake does shit in the woods.
Am I back to Ace or do I need to switch to decaf?
Yeah, I know, Swi. It was just too funny in my own head to pass up.
Looking back, that might have been the wrong decision, but I stand by it.
Picnic Bear is incapable of walking by a blanket spread out on the ground and not fucking it.
So are you saying you don’t date anyone over the age of 10?
FACT: Movie execs are not smarter than the average bear.
