Tintin

Ok. On the one hand, Stephen Spielberg and the Avatar SFX (for hair and noses, it looks like). On the other hand, Peter Jackson and Andy Serkis. Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg, and Nick Frost. Steven Moffat and Toby Jones (The Dream Lord from Doctor Who). And Daniel Craig.

... I'd watch the phonebook if it were directed by Spielberg, produced by Jackson, written by Wright and Moffat, and if it featured Pegg, Frost, Jones, and Craig.

Good lord.

Any links you got to offer us?

Main movie site

EDIT: Holy shiksa, music by John Williams?

Why is the most epic movie Tintin?

Usually the OP is expected to provide links.

As for the movie, I hadn't really payed much attention to it but now I am interested.

Sorry, did not know. I usually do that whenever people ask for links.

Will refrain in the future.

I never thought I'd be, you know, planning to see a Tintin movie.

I was just joking anyway.

I think that at this point, without having seen the movie obviosly, my biggest complaint is that it's not in french.

Seriously. Wasn't Tintin like the MORE boring precursor to Johnny Quest and dull 3rd cousin to the Hardy Boys?

Personally I liked Tintin a lot when growing up. It's one of the few comics I actually used to read as a kid. Though that was a long time ago.

I just hope that they keep in the coded references to every character sleeping with every other character and Haddock being heavily related to the Bourbons.

I'm gonna guess they wont.
