Now I know it's kinda nerdy, in fact it's really fucking nerdy, but I have a real soft spot for
Tintin.
Back in my early years, right around the time I was starting to read
'real' books, I also began to get acquainted with comic books. In
particular the Belgian reporter Tintin, and his classical French
counterpart
Asterix
kept me entertained for what could probably amount to years of my life.
So hopefully you can forgive my unbridled enthusiasm upon hearing the
news that a Tintin movie trilogy is in the works, with none other than
Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson at the helm. The only downside at
this stage is that it's apparently going to be produced in CGI, which
has the potential to turn to shit, but until I've actually seen it
turned to shit I'm still excited.
