History WesternAnimation / SmurfsTheLostVillage

* LittleNo: [[spoiler:After Smurfette's "death", Papa Smurf refuses to accept it, and begins to frantically look up for a spell or something to save her. Brainy [[GetaHoldofYourselfMan sadly tells him that magic can't solve that]].]]

* YouAreGrounded: At the beginning, Papa Smurf becomes upset that Team Smurf ventured into the Forbidden Forest and put themselves in danger, so he grounds all four of them. He actually feels guilty about this the very next day, and even plans to tell Smurfette that the grounding has lasted long enough--before he finds out that all four Smurfs have already left for the Lost Village.

** Brainy ( for being TheSmartGuy of the group who tends to act very nerdy ), Clumsy ( for being a NiceGuy prone to screwing up but being extremely enthusiastic about helping others ) and Smurfblossom ( for her perky, enthusiastic and sweet personality ).

* ChekhovsGun : While testing out Brainy's Smurfy Thing Finder, Smurfette turns out to absorb magical energy instead of emitting it like natural Smurfs. [[spoiler:She uses it at the climax to take back Gargamel's surplus energy that he has harvested from captured Smurfs.]]
* ChronicHeroSyndrome : Hefty admits that he can't stop himself from helping those in danger, even an UngratefulBastard like Gargamel.

* CompositeCharacter : Brainy Smurf is an amalgam of himself and Handy Smurf, the one who, in the animated series, often came with SchizoTech and BambooTechnology inventions, with his smarts being generally well appreciated and respected despite the occasional accidents. Also, Handy was Hefty's best friend in the series, just like Clumsy was Brainy's; here, Brainy's best friends with both.

* DecemberDecemberRomance: [[spoiler:Teased between Papa Smurf and Smurfwillow.]]
** Considering how long the tribes have been separated, they should check their backstories. Do the names Luke and Leia have any meaning for you?

** Compared to previous adaptations, Papa Smurf. The focus is on the quartet of Smurfette, Brainy, Hefty, and Clumsy, [[spoiler:but Papa does follow them to the village in the latter half]].

* PragmaticHero : Brainy, unlike Smurfette and Hefty, is willing to let Gargamel to die. Later, he suggests killing Monty, Gargamel's vulture, but settles on just knocking him unconscious.

* ShipTease : Between Hefty and Smurfette. He's the one Smurf who shows a real romantic interest on her, and it's implied that she returns his feelings to an extent.

* ChekhovsGun : While testing out Brainy's Smurfy Thing Finder, Smurfette turns out to absorb magical energy instead of emitting it like natural Smurfs.

* BambooTechnology: Courtesy of Brainy; he has trained his pet ladybug to serve as a recorder (Snappy vibrates his wings to replicate conversations) and instant camera (Snappy memorizes an image/scene, and later draws it perfectly with his feet); he also uses fireflies in test tubes as emergency lights, and has created a device that allows him to analyze, identify and synthesize a Smurf's defining trait/essence.

* CripplingOverspecialization: [[spoiler:In this movie, Gargamel's magic works on Smurfs, but ''only'' on Smurfs; his Freezeballs don't work on Smurfette, and neither does his attempt to turn her back to her evil self, because Smurfette isn't a real Smurf.]]

* EurekaMoment: [[spoiler:During her DarkestHour, Smurfette looks at Snappy's earlier "selfie" photo of Team Smurf, but she sadly tells Snappy that it doesn't matter, as she's not a real Smurf...wait, that's it, she's ''not'' a real Smurf! And by tricking Gargamel into causing his magic to backfire by casting on "not a real Smurf", that's how Smurfette is able to save the day.]]

* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:Subverted near the end; Smurfette arrives in Gargamel's lair declaring that she's ''tired'' of being good, so she wants Gargamel to change her back to her evil self! However, it's an act; Smurfette is actually tricking Gargamel into causing his own magic to backfire, since Smurfette isn't a real Smurf.]]

--> [[spoiler: '''Smurfwillow''':]] "Don't be weird"

* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:In absorbing all of Gargamel's power, Smurfette ends up being drained of all her essence, becoming an inert lump of clay. Fortunately, she is later revived by ThePowerOfFriendship.]]

* MagicAIsMagicA: Gargamel's Freezeballs can freeze a Smurf, [[spoiler:but only a real Smurf, which Smurfette isn't.]]

** A Smurf playing the horn section of "Careless Whisper" by [[Music/GeorgeMichael Wham!]] in the early part of the movie.

* ToiletHumour: When Brainy tries to impress [[spoiler:the Smurfettes]] with his knowledge on the chalkboard, Hefty draws a little cloud on the chalkboard behind Brainy to suggest that he just passed gas.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: [[spoiler:The Smurfettes, who mostly have blue hair except for their leader Smurfwillow, who has white hair.]]

--> '''Papa''': "It's time to rock the [[spoiler: cage!"]

* ComicBookAdaptation: As a sort of RecursiveAdaptation, this movie had a tie-in comic book called ''Smurfs: The Village Behind The Wall'', consisting of five stories that take place in that movie's universe.

--> '''Papa''': "It's time to rock the [[spoiler: cage!"]] [[spoiler: '''Smurfwillow''':]] "Don't be weird"

* WithAllDueRespect: This conversation between Smurfette and Smurfstorm.

-->'''Smurfstorm:''' Yeah, well, with no due respect, you don't know us.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Early Smurfette, just like in [[WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs previous]] [[Film/TheSmurfs2 adaptations]].

* AdaptationalIntelligence : Brainy is no longer a KnowNothingKnowItAll, but a HollywoodNerd with genuine smarts and useful skills, his InsufferableGenius tendencies also being very downplayed.

* Keet: [[spoiler: Smurfblossom, full stop. The fact that she's voiced by Ellie Kemper helps.]]

* DarkestHour: [[spoiler:Near the end, Gargamel is finally able to capture all the Smurfs in the lost village, and he thanks Smurfette for unintentionally leading him there, telling Smurfette that it's her "purpose" (and one of the female Smurfs, as she's being taken away, even asks Smurfette, "How could you do this to us?"). Smurfette is left all alone and in tears...until her EurekaMoment.]]

** Smurfstorm (and later Clumsy) ride on a Dragonfly.

** When the main Smurf party discuss the mysterious Smurf race's appearance, one suggests that they have orange skin, which is a nod to ''The Astro Smurf'' comic book story and its animated adaptation, where the Smurfs have to drink a potion to disguise themselves as the orange-skinned "Swoofs".

* WordOfGod: [[http://smurfsproductionblog.tumblr.com/ a directors blog was created on Tumblr where the director]] gave a behind-the-scenes look at the production of the movie prior to its release.

* CreatorCameo: According to the film's [[http://smurfsproductionblog.tumblr.com/ tumblr blog]], Nosey Smurf is voiced by the film's director, Kelly Asbury.

* TheMcCoy: Hefty, to Brainy's TheSpock, as illustrated by their argument over [[spoiler:whether or not to save Gargamel from drowning.]]

* SpoiledByTheMerchandise: [[spoiler:The Smurfettes]] are kept hidden by the packaging of the Jakks figures, but that isn't the case with other figures, like the McDonald's ones.

* BlahBlahBlah: When the four Smurfs try to get their raft going in the river, Brainy makes too many interruptions to the point where Hefty interrupts Brainy with his "bing bong bam" to get his friend to shut up.

* SpoiledByTheMerchandising: [[spoiler:The Smurfettes]] are kept hidden by the packaging of the Jakks figures, but that isn't the case with other figures, like the McDonald's ones.
