Here's hoping they haven't ruined another childhood memory...

Did you read Tintin as a kid? No? Then you missed out. Or maybe you didn’t, cos Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson have teamed up to bring one of the best books from our childhood to the silver screen (in 3D, naturally). Of course I trust my favorite material to Spielberg the way I trust Schwarzenegger around my sister, so I’m not sure this is gonna be any good. Plus, I can’t say I’m loving the animation — looks a bit like that plastic-human Polar Express debacle. I think they should’ve gone with Herge’s original art and brought that to life somehow, considering how memorable it was to the story. Anyway, here’s to hoping they haven’t irreparably ruined another treasured childhood memory…
