I'm definitely going to check this movie out. I was always a Tintin fan. And there are a lot of big names like Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson making this movie and the two sequels that are set to be made after this one. They should be pretty good. The interesting thing about Tintin to me was that I always liked the books, but I never really liked Tintin himself. I always thought he was kind of a little bitch. I liked Captain Haddock a lot, though. He was always busting Tintin's balls and getting absolutely ripped on scotch. But, I did always think it was kind of funny that this old sea captain was best friends with a teenager. What was that all about? My buddy thinks that Tintin is really in his late 20's, but that's bullshit. He's definitely like 17. (According to tintin.com, he is between the ages of 16 and 18. I fucking knew it!) My buddy also used to tell me that there were lots of gay overtones in the Tintin saga as well. I always thought he was full of shit about that too, but there have been articles that support this idea. And I guess when I think about it, Tintin can be a bit gay sometimes.
Nah. Tintin was cool.
