Guys, does anyone know the name of the music used in the 2nd. trailer (starts around 1:30)? I don't think it's used in the movie... or is it? Thanks.
 
I've been saying since the first snippets released that the tracks sound like Catch Me If You Can Williams. Which I can't I can't wait to hear in full in the theater.

Won't spoil the full tracks for myself now.

I listened to the suite despite my hesitation not to, and it sounds fine. There were a lot of great parts in there, and the melodies were great.

It doesn't sound like the Tin Tin theme, but John Williams apparently wanted to make something different and he did. It sounds great.

The movie should be out in Montréal two weeks before the rest of North America, French roots and all. So December 9th here as per Paramount.

I can´t wait for Friday. I really dislike that they translated Milou into Snowy. I know it has been done long time ago, but it still bugs me.

What exactly is the problem? The dog's name was Milou in the original French translation. His name is still Milou in the french version of this film.

I read it as Milou all my childhood. It´s just weird hearing it called Snowy. My French is rusty,and i don´t want to lose focus by reading subtitles.

Same, the Swedish dub for the cartoon kept all the french names.

What Spoiler ? Every european has all the books on their shelves.
Aussie kids too, although all Tintins eventually make their way from the kids bookshelf to the toilet where they're re-read forever.
 
Loved it, the acting, the visual style, the story, pretty much everything was great.

The only disappointment I had was that the 3D was a letdown, not sure if that's down to the cinema, but it wasn't as impressive as I'd hoped it would be.

Also, special mention goes to Haddock. He really shines in the movie, in fact it felt more like it was about Haddock after his intro and TinTin was a supporting character instead of the lead.

Just came back. Holy shit this movie looks amazing. Just, wow. The animation and overall visuals are fantastic. Beyond that the movie itself isn't as good as I hoped, but it is a lot of fun. While it lacks emotion, I loved the different settings which really made it feel like a great adventure reminiscent of Raiders of the Lost Ark-era Spielberg.

I also agree with both points on the 3D and Haddock that Speedymanic made.

it's pretty good - certainly a whole load of fun, the action scenes are superbly directed in terms of movement and feel, and everything haddock does in it is absolutely amazing, so well written, voice acted and animated - but i was expecting some more elegant storytelling and stronger character moments given the talent involved. the motion capture and cg is excellent, very impressed by how it looked as i was expecting some uncanny valley, and don't worry about the john williams soundtrack, though they should have put the tintin cartoon theme tune in there.

Because of the cartoon-look I didn't notice much uncanny valley-moments, unless except with Tintin himself a couple of times when he just shows an empty stare that lacks emotion.

Don't worry = really good or what?

i noticed up thread that people weren't so optimistic about it based on the track previews, but the way it compliments the action is really good.
 
Peter Jackson Says He’ll Direct The Sequel To ‘The Adventures Of Tintin’ After ‘The Hobbit’

In the latest print edition of The Hollywood Reporter, the trade caught up with the directors to talk about the film, the asked Jackson directly if he’ll helm the sequel once he’s done with “The Hobbit” to which he simply replied, “Yes

Spielberg elaborated that while they don’t have the greenlight yet for a followup, the studios have allowed them to develop it to the point where it’s good to go. “[Sony and Paramount] were willing to do one movie with us and then give us the financial werewithal to develop a script, do all the visual storyboards and get it really in launch position. So we can launch pretty quickly on a second movie. The script is already written,” explained Spielberg.

Saw this yesterday. Great movie. The 3D bothered me though, the picture got very blurry during movements. Then again this is the first time I've ever seen a 3D movie, so I dunno.

saw a screening of it today, was the only person in the cinema.

i really enjoyed it, it does have it's flaws but it's still an enjoyable film. it also features an amazing single continuous shot that is a non stop action chase scene which was my favorite part of the film.

Seen it yesterday was one of about 5 people in the cinema

Loved the movie and the chase screen but judging by the amount of people in the cinema it's not looking good for its opening weekend
