Popular Post John 2,032 Posted October 6, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 6, 2018 Peter Jackson’s latest update on the ‘Tintin’ sequel. Quote “I’m intending to make it”, said Jackson. “I’ve gotta get the script written, but I’m certainly hoping to get another Tintin film, one which I’ve directed. This one, Steven [Spielberg] would produce. It’s within the next year or two, I would hope. I mean, there’s nothing happening this very second, but it does literally need me to sit down and develop a script for it. So probably in the new year, I’ll try to do that.” Once, Will, Bespin and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're used to films being produced under 2 years now and if a sequel doesn't happen right away well we might as well forget about it. No. They should take the time they need, I'm sick of sloppy half-assed productions that studios squeeze out like a constipated turd. Isn't a common complaint concerning sequels that they're rushed and lacking the spark of the original? Incredibles 2 came out after a fifteen year hiatus and that film was a worthy sequel!

According to Wiki, the screenplay started to get written in 2007 for a 2010 release, but the WGA strike and other issues got in the way pushing it to 2011, mo-cap officially starting in 2009. So perhaps a release closer to 2022 if they actually get serious about it starting next year and everything goes smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick1Ø66 4,711 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 You'd almost think a sequel would have to be a soft reboot at this point, reintroducing (mostly American & Chinese) audiences to a character that, let's face it, they never cared about that much in the first place.

Bespin 8,480 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 It's a movie I liked, but not that much (I usually never watch animated movies). I saw it in french of course, because the character's name in english don't mean anything to me. Is JW was the best to score the movie, although he did a great job, like he's capable of doing it, but... honestly, maybe not. Tintin meet Hollywood was maybe a big clash this for the little belgian reporter... A return to the roots maybe a good idea, if there was to be a sequel...

Like old Nick said, at this point would they even really bother to keep the same team involved? Yes, but I'd rather PJ wasn't harangued by a studio pressuring them to make a sequel in any case - which was probably what happened. On your point of them not actively working on it over a period of time, to use Incredibles 2 as an example again, Brad Bird said he came back to the sequel when he felt it was right to make it, citing that working on other projects allowed him some breathing room and that it wasn't a sequel made out of necessity, but one of a creative passion. So he wasn't working on it over the course of 15 years, but felt it was right to return. PJ was already planning The Hobbit around the time of Tintin, with pre-production already on the go. I'd say if he didn't have those films to do, we would've seen a Tintin sequel sooner. Yavar Moradi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post John 2,032 Posted November 8, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 8, 2018 'Tintin 2' could start filming next year, says Peter Jackson. Quote Peter Jackson has revealed to Empire magazine that a follow-up to 2011’s The Adventures Of Tintin is still on the cards, which is pretty exciting. The first one didn’t light up the box office, but any collaboration between Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson is worth anticipating. And it sounds like we won’t have long to wait. According to Jackson, the team will be “possibly even doing mo-cap next year.” But, before we get too excited, it’s worthing listening to Jackson’s caveat that “no film is a real project until you’ve got the money from the studio.” Still, we’re going to ignore that and get worked up over the fact the rumoured source material for the sequel is The Prisoners Of The Sun, which is reportedly Jackson’s favourite book. The story has been adapted before, in everything from cartoons, to computer games, to musicals, which proves just how popular it is. If you haven’t read it, it involves a trip to Peru, Inca magic and an angry llama. And Jackson isn’t the only one to offer hope, with Steven Spielberg stating seven months ago, “Peter Jackson has to do the second part. Normally, if all goes well, he will soon start working on the script. As it takes two years of animation work on the film, for you, I would not expect to see it for about three years. But Peter will stick to it. Tintin is not dead!” Just don’t expect Jackson to pop up in the director list for Amazon’s Lord Of The Rings series. “They’ve asked me and I’ve said that we would certainly look at the scripts,” Jackson told Empire. But with Amazon’s deal with the Tolkien estate giving them final approval over casting, storylines and scripts, Jackson wouldn’t be able to direct. “It would be impossible without that control.” But there is hope that he’ll have some influence. “Even if I don’t get involved in directing, I’m certainly happy to share our designs.” Chen G., Disco Stu, Holko and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
