Spielberg to Produce Live-Action Tintin Movie (s)

jtauber writes "Looks like the Adventures of Tintin may be the next series of books to be turned into a film franchise with Spielberg in talks to acquire the rights. See the Marlinspike for more information." Tintin was one of my favorite "book" type comics growing up - and they've released collections.

    If life gives you lemons, make lemonade. No, squeeze out the acid and fling it into the eyes of the Man. Speilberg has lost it BTW.

  3. Spielberg's Filmography - Nothing Short of Amazing by ekrout · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Spielberg's filmography is nothing short of amazing. Both the quality _and_ quantity of work that he has done is fabulous.

    Believe it or not, he didn't even get accepted to the better film schools as a prospective college student, and he ended up at a public university in California. But he showed them who really had the talent, and his life in progress is a tribute to his dedication to follow his dream through thick and thin, bad and good, richer and poorer.

    His filmography, below, is listed in more detail at http://www.filmmakers.com/artists/spielberg/filmog raphy/index.htm
