Billions of Blue Blistering Barnacles
The Secret of the Unicorn – Official Trailer
The Tintin series of comics are some of my most beloved stories ever. While I was growing up, I spent hours reading all 21 of them dozens of times. Literally, dozens of times. (And there are actually 24. My collection did not include the first two stories, or the final, unfinished one.)
So I really hope the movie does the series justice. The art style in the trailer there, I think, captures the art style of Tintin and translates it into 3D fairly well. Some shots however, are not from the original Secret of the Unicorn. The crashing airplane and wandering in the desert are from an earlier book, The Crab With the Golden Claws.
Yeah, it’ll be fun picking out all the inconsistencies with the books. And I will find them. All of them.
