"We want Tintin's adventures to have the reality of a live-action film, and yet Peter and I felt that shooting them in a traditional live-action format would simply not honour the distinctive look of the characters and world that Herge created."

that sounds like someone who wants to screw Tin-Tin up.

Everything in Skull was great: Direction, art direction, set designs. The thing that sank it was the script and story.

Indiana Jones rides half on the line of realistic and unrealistic. Everyone complains of the "nuke the fridge" scene. I'm sorry, but didn't Indy jump out a plane in a raft in Temple of Doom?

Edit: Well, we're talking about two separate stories: Tin-Tin and Indiana Jones. Some things are right are Indy and some things are right for Tin-Tin.
