I thought we had some major Tintin  fans here?

[Josquius]

I like it somewhat. When I was a kid I hated it but...its grown on me. I hope the film is of Tintin au Congo.

Fuck off and choke on Neil's spooge, spammer.

[Slargos]

It will inevitably be pussified for a modern, more discerning (read: head-fucked) public.

[Oexmelin]

It seems to have scenes from Le Crabe aux Pinces d'or (the  Crab with the golden claws?).

I appreciate the fact that they did not place the action in a more contemporary setting.

Wouldn't be the first time, Hergé himself already did it when he changed Tintin in Congo.

[Malthus]

They had better not add a (female) love interest.

A Tintin movie directed by Spielberg-- I guess the wife will be dragging Tommy & me out to see it the day it premieres

I guess I'll at least get some enjoyment over watching her complain about them calling the dog "Snowy"

Did the original have Tintin collecting human hands in exchange for bullets a la King Leopold's Ghost? 

Because that would be awesome.

[Syt]

Not quite:

[Malthus]

Not nearly as awesome as hoped for.

It's a mix of Le Crabe aux Pinces d'Or and Le Secret de la Licorne.

[Grey Fox]

Ah, Tintin au Congo. So true.
