I'm sorry to take this off topic, but Haddock's eyes were not brown in the movie. Most of the main cast had blue or similar colours for eyes.

I noticed that throughout the whole series,tintins hair color changes a lot. Sometimes when you are reading bam! His hair color just changes! Does anybody know why Herge made those mistakes and he did not make a change or was it the publishing company

Well I think it depends on the light contrast: his hair was kind of ginger (in the film), that changed with the brightness and darkness.

Well, it can be hard to tell, but most of the time I'd call it ginger. Cigars of the beeper is right, though, in destination moon it's brown.
