Sorry, I would add this to the Smurfs film page, but it didn\'t seem to have a discussion page. Is there a term for the trope where they take a cartoon or show that has its own world and then adapt it to be a movie in our world? So The Smurfs movie is an example of it-instead of that medieval village they lived in is now in NY. Super Mario Bros., Master of the Universe would also be examples or to a lesser extent George of the Jungle, Rocky and Bullwinkle, or the Brady Bunch movie. It\'s not quite human focused adaptation, because a lot of these involve human characters. It\'s an annoying trope, because if they did a straight up live action adaptation, they\'d probably do better than this fish out of water parody of the original.
