Gargamel is named after Gargamelle, the mother of the giants from Gargantua and Pantagruel, a story about a family of giants who kill, urinate on, and repeatedly defeat a series of enemies. It's an odd story to say the least. https://archive.ph/FZnm0
Uhhh, hopefully some dig materials for someone with more patience...
Yes, thanks. Good info and presentation. I'm very interested in the French novel. Never heard of it, which these days really tingles my Spidey Sense. I'm also on alert as The Smurfs cartoon randomly appeared in my timeline literally yesterday. I thought it was strange then, stranger now.
Couple quick instinctual feels:
Gargamel wants to kill Smurfs to turn them to Gold?
Named after giants... The kind that eat people?
Gargamel's cat's name is Azrael?
🤔
That's just 5 minutes of brainstorming. I think you're onto something.
Smurfs are killed and consumed by Gargamel. Wikipedia archived: https://archive.ph/ypMGT

Interestingly he is a giant in this. Also, the video starts out with a dead kid on the screen.
