Steven Spielberg's "Tintin" Trailer is Here!

Really can't make my mind up about this, Looks ok i guess ..

robert zemeckis just had an orgasm

Dont like these freaky looking render dudes! same as that chrismas train bollocks... there just souless!!!

As I said before, the fact that Moffat and Wright wrote this is reason enough for me to see this.

Spielberg. I'll watch ANYTHING he's involved with. Looks pretty good. And the fact that Peter Jackson is a producer is a plus too.

Cast looks great, so does the live-animation. But I'm not so sure if it'll be great story-wise.

@Masht7

Watch the 5th season of Doctor Who and tell me again it won't be great story-wise.

meh. tired of that cg doodoo

The CGI looked fine and the movie looked somewhat entertaining but then, in the end, hello uncanny valley. I don't get why they went the motion capture-way. This would've looked so much better in live-action.

Could be OK, don't think it will do too well in the box office though considering most younger generations probably don't know who Tin Tin is. There's something about CGI that normal films just can't beat visually. Maybe it's normal films trying to make sequences look too real and failing. I'll probably see it.

When WETA takes care of the business - it shows.

Looks much better than Zemekis' features.

Creepy Polar Express CGI is not for me. This looks lame anyway.

Good live animation CGI. They should done the same thing with the Hulk.

freud -

Agree, live action would have been more appealing. I Dont really see why they couldn't have made it that way.

Hm. Not sure...

and I thought Lou Diamond Phillips was dead
Guess he's still making movies thanks to Alex by putting out his latest movie Takedown.

Looks ok, dvd watch.

Schwarzenegger Admits to Fathering Child With Housekeeper

Go Arnold, You sly old dog you !!

yea Trailer Trash i saw the news on that one
ALEX SHOULD of posted that as well with the new Mortal Kombat episode is about RAIDEN

Looks crap,TinTin is for nobrashes

Loved the posters but this is underwhelming.

Jesus Christ, you people, you see a poster you like with some name you think means win and you cream your pants, but then five seconds later you see a trailer that sucks and your back to being negative.

I've heard of manic-depressive, but this is just crazy. Either love the damned thing, hate it, or the third option, just wait till the f*cker shows up on the screen.

Either stick to your guns or don't draw.

"I don't get why they went the motion capture-way."

Because hand-animated reality is expensive and time consuming and because these people think that with each MC advancement the results will provide a convincing appearance and yet they never do, usually because they're too lazy to painstakingly edit the keyframes to smooth out the 'uncanny' animation.

Thnik how real a Disney film like Sleeping Beauty looks compared to some sh*t like Polar Express. One uses hand-drawn animated frames, the other motion-capture. One technique is more than half a century old, the other is a cutting-edge and quickly-developing mature technology. One works well to convince the viewer the characters are real, the other does exactly the opposite.

I watched this with an open mind... no expectations. And it didn't show me enough to grab me.


So I'm just going to sit here and grab myself.

f*ck grabbing,i would rather fist myself than watch Tintin,bender comic for faggy frogs and Belgium types.

Spoken like a true Brit Rocket, Bravo good sir !!

Lol cheers ;)

wow minkowski thanks for the thesus on Motion capture -your lame-


The reason they went Mo-Cap is because it was the only way to stay true to HERGE and his original Tintin books. And because hand-drawn Tintin would look like a kids movie

@rocket - lol.

That trailer was a HUGE let down- if decent footage cant be released, dont release any

It seems to me like 99% of the people who post on WP are certified dipsh*ts, with the f*cking brown diploma and the plastic step-ladder and everything.

"The reason they went Mo-Cap is because it was the only way to stay true to HERGE and his original Tintin books."

Tintin is a static comic strip originating in 1926, so how the f*ck could it have used motion capture? Motion capture is for animation, not cartoon comics, and is a mathematical/camera technique to import captured real-life motion into virtual actors and props, making them move, supposedly, with much improved realism.

And yes, moron, you can hand animate some sh*tty film like Tintin, just like the Disney artists did and do, and they even have books for 3D artists on hand-animating CGI using manual techniques. Without motion capture, so please, shut the f*ck up.

"And because hand-drawn Tintin would look like a kids movie"

And this doesn't look like a kids film? I mean, I know you're 25 and all but you must think that because YOU like Tintin, that makes it an adult film, because you imagine 'your' an adult, and yet it looks like a f*cking CG film for children to me.

Or twenty-something year old fags.

"your lame"

No, 'your' lame.

This is the sort of garbage self-loathing Spielberg's trying to sell to American audiences:

"The Shooting Star was nonetheless controversial. The story line involved a race between two crews trying to reach a meteorite which had landed in the Arctic. Hergé chose a subject that was as fantastic as possible to avoid issues related to the crisis of the times and to thereby avoid trouble with the censors. Nonetheless politics intruded. In the original version, the crew Tintin joined was composed of Europeans from Axis or neutral countries ("Europe") while their underhanded rivals were Americans, financed by a person with a Jewish name and what Nazi propagandists would dub "Jewish features";[14] later editions would substitute a fictitious country for the United States. Tintin himself uses a World War II Arado 196 German reconnaissance aircraft. In a scene which appeared when the story was being serialised in Le Soir, two Jews, depicted in classic anti-Semitic caricature, are shown watching Philippulus harassing Tintin. One actually looks forward to the end of the world, arguing that it would mean that he would not be obliged to settle with his creditors."

Heopfully, Tintin will fail and that's the last we will ever hear of Spielberg.

a movie for kids... based on a comic from our grandparents... yeah, seems legit.

Cinema- With you on "Doctor Who", Moffat writing is better than previous writer.


Will watch this just because Moffat and Wright are writing it.

I’m looking forward to seeing this movie and the only reason I’m going to see it in theaters is because Spielberg has a hand in this. I’ve been testing out DISHonline.com for my job at DISH Network and I came across many components that have brought Spielberg to such a successful career. After seeing this I strongly doubt that the Tin Tin Trilogy will be short of another box office hit. http://beta.dishonline.com/shows/83319/videos/762647
