I too have not ever read any of the books, but did hear about the name. I wonder what age group this will target – young kids or teenagers? I do look forward to it since there has been so much buzz about the movie!

This is going to be massive. Tintin was a hugely popular character in New Zealand when I was growing up.

Hey Steve,

Tintin is a European comic book. It’s mainly popular there and in Asia. Not many people like it here in the US. Same with the Asterix comic books.

Glad to have exposed you with this goodness.

Hi Rudy,
I’ve never heard of the Tintin series, but based on your post, I’ll look forward to the movie. Sounds like it should be good. Thanks for the heads up! Steve

Hey Chris,

I did wonder how they were going to cram 3 stories into 1. Now it makes more sense for them to leave out Prof Calculus out of the movie.

Thanks for info. By the way, you have a great website!

It looks as if the first film will only involve parts of The Crab with the Golden Claws and Secret of the Unicorn. So obviously Prof Calculus is not needed.

It is also unclear if Peter Jackson will be make Red Rackham’s Treasure as the second film.
