'Adventures Of Tintin' Sequel To Be Released In 2015

Steven Spielberg's 'The Adventures of Tintin' was a marvel of animated filmmaking. Whether you ended up enjoying it or not, the achievements in the field of motion-capture technology utilized for the movie were astounding. Soon after the release of 'The Adventures of Tintin' it was announced that the sequel would not be directed by Spielberg, but instead Peter Jackson. So when would we see this second installment of Tintin's filmic adventures? Now, thanks to Jackson himself, we have our answer. During a press tour for 'The Hobbit,' Jackson revealed that 'Tintin: Prisoners of the Sun,' which is a great title by the way, will begin shooting the motion performances next year in time for a theatrical release in 2015. With his adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's classic 'Lord of the Rings' preamble now being released as a trilogy, this announcement effectively means that we will have a new Peter Jackson movie every year from now until 2015.

Wow, so chalk up another big title for 2015. Just days ago we learned that Fox's Fantastic Four reboot was lining itself up to compete with the likes of 'The Avengers 2,' 'The Justice League,' 'Star Wars Episode VII,' and 'Ant-Man.' However, this barely scratches the surface of the innumerable giant releases that will begin crowding into theaters just over two years from now. Again, some of these may shift closer to that time, but even so, it's going to be a titanic year for movies and Tintin has just thrown his hat into that formidable ring. My hope with 'Prisoners of the Sun' is that Jackson will have gotten past his 48fps phase, and that we won't have to suffer a Tintin story that looks like a soap opera. As much as the first 'Tintin' was an innovative film, I frankly just don't see any merit in this accelerated frame rate and can't subscribe to it's potential to improve the sequel. Sure, we'll probably have the option to see 'Tintin' in 24fps, but I hope Jackson is able to see by then how unnecessary this technology really is.

What do you guys think? Will 'The Adventures of 'Tintin: Prisoners of the Sun' be able to compete in 2015. Any thoughts on 48fps?

Wow, really?  If any film is THE film to show off 48 fps, It's this one.  Animation is perfectly suited for 48 fps and would look gorgeous.

Jeez Brian tell us how you really feel about 48fps.

Fuck these movies the main reason why Peter Jackson made his Hobbit Trilogy nothing but  CGI 3d effects lacking any presence or depth that tangible Real Prosthetic's  sfx make up and and animations bring to movies its such a shame he didn't go with Guillermo's  practical creatures of middle earth..

Prisoners of the sun is cool because it starts out as a crazy, surreal mystery. Bunch of scientists are put into trances by an ancient curse.

Plus it's got great Haddock llama humor.

Having seen The Hobbit yesterday, which you Americans haven't yet, I feel I have to adress what you said about 48fps. Yes, the first few minutes of the movie were hard for the eyes and you noticed how fast everything was moving, but after that, it all looked normal and fine. The colors felt more enhanced though. It looked great, and I think it would have done so in 2D as well.

I also suspect that it helped the 3D because it's one of the best looking 3D movies I've ever seen, necessary or not. You didn't get that stuttering feel of the effect that you get in a lot of 3D films. I'm excited about the technology and I look forward to see more 3D movies in 48 frames.

The quality of the movie itself on the other hand? It's a step down from Lord of the Rings, but kinda on par with Jackson's King Kong. First hour is quite silly and hard to take seriously, but when the ball starts to roll, it becomes better. The Gollum part was my favorite of the film.

High Matinee - 7/10

The first Tintin was great, and Prisoners of the Sun was my favorite of the original books I read as a child. I'm very excited for this.

Personally, I don't care one way or the other about the 48fps controversy. I don't see a problem with giving film a framerate closer to real life or with keeping it the same. I can get used to either one.
