The new trailer for 'Yogi Bear'

Here's the brand-new trailer for Eric Brevig's upcoming 3D flick "Yogi Bear," and to tell you the truth, it still looks kind of weird in terms of the whole live-action/CG mix. "Yogi Bear" opens Dec. 17, 2010.

The story follows a documentary filmmaker who has an encounter with Yogi at Jellystone Park. Dan Aykroyd voices Yogi and Justin Timberlake does Boo-Boo. Anna Faris and Tom Cavanagh co-star.

Eric Brevig also helmed the 3D adventure "Journey to the Center of the Earth." I don't think the world needs a "Yogi Bear" film, but then again, this looks like it can attract youngsters looking for a cheap laugh.
