The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn DVD Review

Tintin-Poster

The big question with the transfer of Tintin from big to small screen was how the fantastic use of 3D and sheer scale of the film would suffer. The answer, thankfully, is not in the slightest, Spielberg and Jackson wisely choosing to steer clear of the clichéd third dimensional gimmicks. With the audience treated as [...]

An Interview With Tintin VFX Supervisor Joe Letteri

Joe Letteri Tintin Banner

One of the most striking things about Tintin is the quality of the animation. While I found the character design somewhat cold and distant, everything else was rather impressive, so when I recently had the chance to talk to the film’s VFX supervisor Joe Letteri, I wanted to understand why things like the character movement [...]

The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn Review

Tintin-UK-Poster

It’s probably worth starting this review of The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn by gently ushering a couple of elephants out of the room. The first is the title, which is ridiculously overlong. For the sake of simplicity, from here on in, we’ll simply be calling it ‘Tintin’. The second, much larger [...]

New Tintin Poster is an Unsubtle Mess

tintint poster

I’ve loved the posters for Peter Jackson and Steven Spielberg’s The Adventures of Tintin so far. Each teased the adventure ahead with sihlouettes of our bequiffed hero and his dog wandering towards both Hell and High Water and there was a genuine sense that was coming would be something special. Sadly this new poster, if [...]




Comic-Con: Tintin Panel and Press Conference

JacksonSpielbergComic-Con

It’s interesting that I’m writing this panel up for HeyUGuys as it seems that the story of Tintin is much better known in Europe.  North America is pretty much in the dark when it comes to these tales.  However, it helps the cause when you have a movie being made by the likes of Steven [...]
