Hello all! This is my first post on this forum. Long time Tintin lover here. When I saw this trailer I just HAD to share it with people that actually know about Tintin as well.
Here is a link to an io9 article with an embedded Youtube trailer with English subtitles, as well as some short scenes from the movie below in French.
If you just look at the first 3 seconds in the trailer, you'll catch it!
The movie is being directed by Luc Besson and is also a Belgian comic, just like Tintin. The comic,
The Extraordinary Adventures of Adele Blanc-Sec, has also been compared to Herge's art style- which leads us to wonder...why would Luc Besson do this? If you look at the rest of the trailer, some elements felt a little bit like The Seven Crystal Balls. I think the movie looks great, and I'm really excited to see it!
Has anyone read any of these comics? And also, do you think that maybe Luc Besson should be making a live-action Tintin instead of Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson?
Moderator Note: Welcome to the boards! You will see that there is already a discussion of the movie, and a link to the official site, which contains the clips and trailers, so your post has been moved to this thread. Doing a quick search is always recommended before posting, to see if there is already something under way.
The link to the photo you posted has been removed, as it is taken from a screen-grab, and might infringe copyright - but anyway, it might be nicer to let people to spot the cameo; the direction to it is in the first post of this thread.
