ITT: The forgotten franchises of Hollywood
Films which were might to be the next big thing and never got it
Its a pity about this, I thought it was alright and more of a Indiana Jones movie than Kingdom.
Crane fight was unforgivable though
Another example
Steven Moffat's script was FUCKING TERRIBLE

What was wrong with the crane fight? Was perfectly in line with the rest of the film.
I love tintin, I read all the bd's as a kid, and globe-trotting adventures are literally my favourite genre of all time—but that movie looked fucking off
That was better than IJ 4
I love tintin, both movie and cartoon, too bad we will never see a sequel.

People that read the book said the novel is pretty shit too, I like the ending though
>>64585320
I just thought it wasnt a great setpiece.
Probably the last movie that felt like an adventure.
The last before Tintin was The Mummy.
Fuck why are adventure movies so dead now we have to deal with Uncharted or have nothing.

Didn't everything about it seem a little off? Not just that weird animation. The script seemed like it needed a rewrite in some places, to make it a bit tighter, and the ending was basically a non-ending. The movie was called the scret of the Unicorn, so one might expect that the "Unicorn" plotline would be wrapped up by the end of it, but at the end it seems like they're still going to try to find the ship. They find the coordinates, and then the movie just kind of ends.

That is what made it so fresh.

One of the few films I saw in 3D but I loved it.I enjoyed the crane fight.
This, in all likelihood. The reviews were abysmal, as were the box office returns, but they were definitely trying to lead up to rebooting the entire Peter Pan story, with as many stops along the way as could make them money.

Just what? That's not a full sentence. Type correctly. Stop making a fool of yourself.
>>64585035
Is it available?
Also I'm pretty sure that Moffat just wrote a first draft and then had to leave the project for Doctor Who. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a bit rough.
Well the movie she is talking about
>a series of seven novels
>one movie and the franchise ended
>the main actor's career completely dies
Hollywood is cruel.

I don't find movies that break formula and replace it with something faulty to be "fresh". I find them to be awkward. A movie that actually breaks formula and creates something new that works is fresh, and you'll know it's worked, because imitators will spring up to try to copy THAT movie's formula. Tintin was not so lucky.

Ah, memories.

Forgotton? You know how many chances this shitty manchild story had?
Golden Compass

I saw it in the kino, but your post makes me realize that I can't remember anything from it, short of some vague recollection of something in a cellar.

Rewatch it, it's great.

wow, that image is sad as hell.
