That will be fun. I'll go to most anything Rid does. Even enjoyed Robin Hood.

Tintin is going to be my final end-all litmus test for Spielberg. If it works, then he will have proven his mettle. But likely I will be just as disappointed as usual. And then I will completely give up on his output. (I haven't liked anything post 87 anyway, save for Crusade.)

What about Jurassic Park, Schindler's List, Minority Report, and Munich?

JP: No.  SL: I could never pin down my dislike of this one. Finally found somewhere online where Kubrick essentially described List as a movie about "winning" the Holocaust. Spot on. MR: bland. Not deep enough and not enough of an action serial. It doesn't know what it wants to be. Munich: trying way too hard for very little results. In my book Spielberg ends with Empire of the Sun and LC.
