JamieC 13 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Having seen Tintin last night I'd say there's no reason at all for Tintin being 'an unkown quantity' in North America being an impediment to its popularity there later this autumn.The film moves at a wonderful pace (how nice to have an adventure movie that actually moves rather than lumbers along, and which clocks in under two hours...more screenings per day, too, of course ). The movie also punctuates the high energy action with a welcome dose of physical and verbal humour. It's also a visually rich experience..better than life almost. It's a real treat. Finally, the film's plot mechanics are working just wonderfully with everything laid out and set up / paid off just right. The sweet precision of the Hollywood studio film style is nicely at work here. Interesting, too, I think that it's animated films that often have tighter, clearer, stronger storytelling than live action titles.Jameswww.twitter.com/jasclarkewriter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,369 Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Cool new featurette showing Spielberg and Jackson talking about making the film together. Features that same bit of unreleased Karaboudjan music at the beginning as well I found out about it from this article, which thinks that the loop of music on the official site is all Williams http://popwatch.ew.com/2011/11/04/tintin-website/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbellamy 6,287 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Entertainment Weekly gets more hilarious by the day...Also, 18 films have been submitted for the Animated Feature category, including Tintin: http://www.oscars.or.../20111104a.htmlBut that doesn't necessarily mean it's eligible yet, right?

indy4 155 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 It's lucky that Tintin is up against what is probably the worst reviewed Pixar film ever...it definitely has a good chance. Has a Pixar film ever been nominated for best animated film without winning?Has the same director ever won Best Picture and Best Animated Film in the same year? Not saying I think Spielberg will, but it would be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbellamy 6,287 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Yes. Twice, actually. Monsters Inc. lost to Shrek, and Cars lost to Happy Feet.As to your second question, I was just thinking about that today, what with all the buzz around both War Horse and Tintin. That would be hilarious if they both won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy4 155 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I saw a TV spot that used a critic's quote. It was something like "this is the perfect combination of Pirates of the Caribbean and Indiana Jones." I hope Spielberg hasn't been entirely derivative in this film, I'm expecting something a little different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
