The Adventures of Tintin!!!!

**Nturtle** · 10-06-2002, 07:15 PM

Hey, I was just wondering if there are any Tintin fans around here? As in Tintin with the little dog Snowy, Captain Haddock and Professor Calculus?

I for one am a big Tintin fan!! I have all the comic books that have at least been transilated into English, and I have seen bits of the tv show but didn't like it

anyway hers your chance to talk about Tintin!!!

I think I used to watch the TV show...doesn't have two twin guys named "Thompson and Thompson" too?

Wow! I haven't thought about Tin-Tin in forever! That was one amusing guy, but I only saw the TV show. I think the only thing I remember was he and the Captain guy singing, "Yo ho ho, and a bottle of rum, Red Rockin's Treasure, here we come!" or something along those lines. Whoa...talk about your flashbacks, I remember exactly what I was wearing, where I was sitting, and who I was with when I watched that episode. *shakes head* Weird...thanks for bringing that up!

I never saw the show but I read the big comic books when I was younger

Good!!! I love tintin!! that episode which you reffer to must be From "The Secret of the Unicorn" or "Red Rackham's treasure"

Yes there are 2 detectives named Thompson and Thomson they are exactly alike except for the fact that Thompson had slightly out reached mustatch, I think. They aren't twins though, In fact they aren't even related!!

The tin-tin cartoon never interested me

But there's a pc game that looked cool...any of you ever played it?I wanna know what's about

**Karpo_007** · 10-07-2002, 01:50 PM

I watched the show when i was little... It came right beofre Lucky Luke!

**Nturtle** · 10-07-2002, 02:53 PM

The comic book is what counts, the tv show didn't look great

a tintin pc game eh? I played a snes game based off The Prisoners of the Sun but nothing else...

*Nickokapo* · 10-07-2002, 03:16 PM

Perhaps the pc version of the game was a conversion of the snes version to the pc...i think it had the same title and everything...

The Hedge · 10-07-2002, 03:28 PM

I used to really enjoy that show, haven't seen it in ages though, wonder do they still make it?

*Nickokapo* · 10-07-2002, 03:33 PM

I think they stopped making new episodes of that toon already.

Snow White · 10-07-2002, 03:39 PM

Too bad. But if the comic book is out there, I may just have to rush out and giggle at past memories.

*Nickokapo* · 10-07-2002, 03:45 PM

Yeah i think you can buy the comics here http://www.navrang.com/tintin.php
What i want to see is the game

maybe i'll download the snes rom and perhaps the pc game if it's abandonware already.

**Nturtle** · 10-07-2002, 03:57 PM

awesome!! I already have all of them though

except for the non english ones go to Tintin.com its preety cool!!!

Snow White · 10-07-2002, 04:52 PM

Non-english??? Well, gee, then I'll be sure to read the english versions. What is it written in? Greek? Spanish? Russian? Pig Latin?

**Nturtle** · 10-07-2002, 04:59 PM

well it was orriginally written in French and actually most of the books have been put into 30+ languages

Only the original 2 books aren't in English; Tintin in the land of the soviets (

) and Tintin in the Congo also there is a unfinished book because Herge died while making it called Tintin and the Alpha art...

*Nickokapo* · 10-07-2002, 05:03 PM

22 out of 24 is not bad...

**Nturtle** · 10-07-2002, 05:05 PM
