A lot of people this morning are talking about the just released trailer for The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn, though not all of it good. I’ve watched the trailer four times now and while it looks ok, a lot of people are questioning why they don’t really show any of the characters faces , or that it was filmed on location in the Uncanny Valley . My hope for this movie is that it’s directed by Steven Spielberg, who’s one of my very favorite directors and a genius in his own right. And though Tintin was filmed with motion capture, the only company who’s ever done a good job with mo-cap is Peter Jackson’s WETA, and that’s exactly who’s handling the special effects. My guess is that public opinion will force Spielberg and Jackson to release a trailer that really shows the faces of the characters “working,” for a lack of a better term, some kind of proof that we’re not going to be seeing a bunch of glassy eyed zombies running around on screen. What did you think of the trailer, are you optimistic or excited to see it now? Bobby
