Looks like Spielberg's TINTIN flick is that much closer to happening...

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Below you'll find out some cool info about some roadblocks being moved out of the way of Spielberg's TINTIN film... I claim total ignorance of this series of books, but from I've read online about it it seems right up Spielberg's alley... As long as he still does WAR OF THE WORLDS, count me happy!

Hi Harry!

Long time reader blah blah blah...

Thought you might be interested in knowing that Hergé's widow, Fanny Rodwell - who is currently visiting Stockholm, Sweden - told swedish reporters that she has read and approved a first draft for the Tintin movie that Spielberg is directing. This was reported in several newspapers yesterday. Fanny Rodwell and her husband Nick Rodwell are, as most Tintin fans already know, responsible for the Hergé Foundation - who get final say on all things Tintin. Spielberg has now gotten the green light from the Foundation to go ahead with the movies. She didn't say which album he's doing though, but going from rumours, it's probably "Unicorn..." and "Red Rackham..."

If you use this, call me The Abominable Snowman.
