  Didn’t he want to eat them or something? That sounds like a one-way ticket to a body horror ending…

      yep. that’s the biggest tell that the Smurfs is about communism. in any other kids story the antagonist would either want to get rid of them or eat them, which is why most people just assume that’s what he wants. but no, he wants gold. he’s a capitalist.

    First book, he needs them to make gold.

    Then it’s just revenge.

    Or so I remember.

    He appeared in Robot Chicken and admitted that he was never all that clear on his motivations.

      Gargamel would be patient zero of The Last of Us: Blue Edition.
