Tintin a trilogy

Tintin

The reason Peter Jackson wont be directing The Hobbit is due to this adventurous fellow. Jackson and Steven Spielberg have decided to make a Tintin trilogy, Jackson will direct the first movie, and Speilberg the second. But not only that it will be in 3D and they will be using similar motion capture technology to that of James Cameron’s Avatar. There is no word on who will direct the third, but that is years away so they have time to get someone. The only problem is that you have two amazing directors doing the first movies, so someone of equal greatness will have to take on the job and finish the trilogy, which will no doubt be a hard task.

Why do they think it's a good idea to do Tintin in 3D?

my vote goes to Michael Bay for the third installment.

i think its great that steven spielberg and peter jackson are going to make 3d movies. i can't wait to see the result.

can't wait to see all this new fangled 3d shit - and i know avatars going to be the best film i've ever seen ever. if it isn't, i'm going to waste myself.

what the fuck is tintin

I fucking LOVE Tintin

I wonder which story angle they'll take. I hope it's not several books thrown in together

I hope it's Red Rachams Treasure, though I'd image it'd be based on Tintin in Tibet being as that's the most popular

just read that Steven Moffat is writing them! He's my favourite screen-writer. This is unbelievable

>Tonerre de brest !

Sapajou !

Moule à Gauffre !

Anacoluthe,, marin d'eau douce, iconoclaste, !

3D ` o` ? mmmh that's strange i heard that dicaprio might be tintin. Tom hanks would be perfect for Haddock. I hope they will keep the idea of beowulf : 3d characters based on true actors

i haven't seen beowulf - it looks absolutely terrible. Is it?

my only problem is tintin is super lame, joel shoemacher materiel, super gay heel tapping halfway out of the closet material, old blood directors for shame

Childhood isn't complete until you've read all the Tintin back to back on a sick day from school :) Seriously I hope that both of them do one of the two-parters that really could hold strong as a 2hour+ movie. Unless they want to go the more mature and realistic way.

Le Secrets de la Licorne / Le trésor de Rackham

Les Sept Boules de Crystal / Le Temple du Soleil

Vol 714 pour Sydney is exactly like LOST. I don't see them doing the moon two-parter, basically it's an artistic exploration, there isn't much action happening, it's more the readers being in awe of the spectacle of ink and paper.

this tintin is all bullshit. fuck this bullshit tintin. more like tittit.

re-linked here as the last one is now dead for some reason

Tintin is my fucking childhood hero, i had all the books and cassettes. It's ridiculously amazing how age friendly his mature stories are. This better be fucking good. I'm abit worried about the 3d thing, tintin was realistic, i hope they realize that.

why this aversion to animating it? that's what should be done. Motion Capture looks ass, they'd be better off having Square do computer animation.

wonder if they make it as racist as the originals were

The only book really that could be interpreted as 'racist' is Tintin in the Congo. Hergé drew it in 1931 and hadn't actually been to Africa (he hadn't been anywhere at all actually) so he pieced it together from research.

by the way I would reccomend 'Tintin & I' it's documentry interview with Herge before he died, There's probably a torrent somewhere

I thought this was about Rin Tin Tin K9 Cop.

Milles milliards de milles sabord! A Tintin movie in 3d!
