  • 27 - Bonus Episode – A Day at the Museum




    Did we say that Tintin and the End was our final episode? Well…we lied!



    Yes, David and Ian were in Belgium this fall for a comics convention in Ghent, but they couldn’t not visit the Hergé Museum – a longtime dream of David’s. Did it live up to David’s – admittedly pretty high – expectations? What did non-Tintinophile Ian think? And how many times did they get lost during the drive there?



    In a wide-ranging (some might call it loosey-goosey) conversation, Ian and David discuss all their thoughts, experiences and feels about that beautiful place. (Oops! Spoilers!)

  • 26 - Tintin and the End


    This week on Totally Tintin, the final episode of the series: Ian and Dave answer your questions, give us their final thoughts and give out some well-earned thanks. And let us just say here: thanks to all of you who have listened to the show and who have added their thoughts and comments (here and on Facebook) throughout the run. Ian and Dave have really appreciated all your help and enthusiasm for this great comics series.
    So, thank you for listening and keep a little bit of Tintin in your hearts – but also a little bit of Haddock. Blue blistering barnacles, we thank you all!

  • 25 - Tintin at the Movies


    This week on Totally Tintin, David and Ian postpone the inevitable and take a look at Tintin in the movies. Some are pretty good and some are pretty bad and some are TERRIBLE. Want to know which? Well, give us a listen.
    If you’re curious and you’d like to check out some of the movies that Ian and Dave talked about on the show, here are a few YouTube links:
    Here is a short video looking at one of Hergé’s film fixés, Tintin in America:

    And here is the stop-motion animated version of The Crab with the Golden Claws from 1947. It’s completely in French, of course, but don’t worry, it has Spanish subtitles!

    If you can stand it, here is Belvision’s murder of The Black Island:

    The complete version of Tintin and the Mystery of the Golden Fleece – well worth a look:

    The complete version of Tintin and the Blue Oranges – best to watch this while doing something else – like the dishes or watching a different movie:

    This is a clip from the promotional film for the SGM that Dave mentioned during the show – the first appearance by Tintin without his famous plus fours.

    Here is the best version of Tintin and the Temple of the Sun I could find – if you have a better link, let me know and I’ll substitute it for this one!

    Tintin – The Temple of the Sun from Kuifje on Vimeo.
    Here is the execrable Tintin and the Lake of Sharks – the film that features no sharks or any sort of entertainment, for that matter:

    And finally, let’s end with Nelvana’s version of The Black Island – we can compare it with the Belvision massacre:

    Actually, let’s not end there – this seems crazy to me, but the entire version of Stephen Spielberg’s The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn is on YouTube so I’ll embed while the link is still alive. Enjoy!

    We didn’t mention it on the show, but what a brilliant credit sequence!

    Next week, Ian and Dave will take a look at the history of Tintin in the movies.
    Don’t forget that we’re looking for some questions for our final episode. If there is anything you’d like Ian and Dave to discuss in greater detail or anything they may have left out, please leave a comment below!

  • 23 - Tintin and the Picaros


    This week on Totally Tintin, it’s a revolution with involuntary abstinence and terrible trousers as Ian and David take a very long look at Tintin and the Picaros. Will they enjoy the last, finished Tintin book?
    As we head into our last shows, Ian and Dave would like to hear if you have any questions or anything you’d like them to talk about on the final show of Totally Tintin. You can post questions or comments below!
