From Academy Award® winning filmmakers, Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson, comes the epic adventures of Tintin. And both movies even feature a secret message that's only visible when the sun hits an age-old artifact just right.Synopsis. Plus, Tintin narrowly escapes the fate of Raiders' Nazi mechanic when he passes out next to a propeller.
Spielberg had never heard of Tintin before, but soon he was hooked, and he spent the next several decades trying to bring it to the big screen, beginning with a 1984 production that would've starred Jack Nicholson as Captain Haddock. The Philippine Daily Inquirer reports Spielberg's love of Tintin began with the release of Raiders of the Lost Ark, which one critic at the time compared to Hergé's comics. Intrepid reporter Tintin and Captain Haddock set off on a treasure hunt for a sunken ship commanded by Haddock's ancestor.That's no coincidence.

Because it doesn't.Most spectacular of all, there's the chase scene in Bagghar, which goes on for nearly five minutes without a cut. It can begin one shot behind the controls of a crane, then move straight through the windshield all the way across the docks and behind the windshield of another as smoothly as if the glass didn't exist. The simulated "camera" can begin a shot zoomed all the way in on the reflection in a pirate's sword and then move all the way out until both ships look as small as bathtub toys. That means he can do all kinds of tricks that would be impossible in live-action. Instead of a big, bulky camera, Spielberg gets to work with one that's literally weightless because it only exists in computer code.
That one shot covers miles of space, jumping up into the sky and darting seamlessly in and out of buildings. Tintin doesn't have any of those limitations. Even the most ambitious live-action filmmaker couldn't cover any more space than they could lay down tracks for.
