I was going to see Tin Tin before but now have another reason to do so.

Tintin? Really? Well...it looks like I will be waiting for the teaser to hit the internet. I was not planning to see that movie as the trailer looked terrible, to me.

How can you not like Tintin! The animation (Weta) is so good, it sometimes looks real.

Directed by Spielberg, produced by Jackson, using both their movie-making companies, music by John Williams, animation by Weta, written by Stephan Moffatt, Dr.Who writer, starring Jamie Bell, Andy Serkis, Daniel Craig, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.....

What's not to like?

Not a big fan of motion capture cartoons.


I'll prolly rent it on blu though.

Its not motion capture. Its digital.

My understanding was that it's the same tech as Beowulf and Polar Express.

Benedict Cumberbatch talking about his prep to play Smaug:

Interesting to see how the motion capture works for portraying a dragon.

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

Glad they're making him pronounce his character's name correctly. It's Smaug, not "smog".


And while we're on the topic, it's Sauron, not "sore-on".
