Steven Spielberg will make 'Tintin' trilogy

[RadishTM Veteran]

Tintin ruled when I was a child :jump:

Steven Spielberg is poised to make not one but three movies based on the Belgian cartoon character Tintin.

The director is planning a trilogy based on six of the classic Tintin books, including Red Rackham's Treasure and The Blue Lotus, according to French magazine Capital.

Ace reporter Tintin travels the world solving mysteries with the help of his friends Captain Haddock, the Thompson Twins and his faithful dog Snowy.

As usual, Spielberg's slate is loaded with new projects.

As well as the planned Tintin movies, the director has started pre-production on a fourth Indiana Jones film and is working on an adaptation of James Thurber's story The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty. He's currently shooting The Terminal with Tom Hanks.

Additionally, Spielberg has announced a DVD release for Schindler's List, his acclaimed Holocaust drama.

The movie is coming to DVD in March, 10 years after it was first released in cinemas.

The DVD will include a documentary looking at the Shoah Foundation, which has an archive of Holocaust material established by Spielberg in 1993.

Also included is Voices From The List, a 77-minute compendium of testimonies from the archive never seen before. Schindler's List won seven Oscars, including Best Picture.

[uniacidz]

Koooooooool

Read alot of Tintin books/comics or whatever they were when i was younger.

Tintin rocks.

[dafinga]

Never heard of Tintin, but that Indian Jones flick will have Harrison Ford in it. Though he will be his age as an older Indiana, kind of like the last crusade, but who knows how it will work out?

[FatCat]

YAhoo!!! tintin rocked!! I read em all.

[Wildies]

Ohhhhh TinTin thats was the really goood days reading this stuff...

And it will be very cool to see it on big screen..though i think it was done b4 but failed..

[blackcoffee]

YEs ! Schindler's List on DVD! w00tw00t

[nugg3t]

nice stuff. never thought spielberg would do this kinda work. and how hes gonna succed to make it a good movie.

i use to love to check out the comic books about tintin. great stuff

[Quboid]

Sweet, I used to love Tintin. I wonder how they'll shot it - live action, I presume?

Indiana Jones 4, yeah, I dunno. If it recreates the magic then yeah, I'm in favour. With Spielberg and Ford onboard it should be good.

[SpicyBeef]

Nice find Radish.

This is why i can't live without Neowin. Lol.
