American ladies like Jessica Biel brought a smattering of sass (Amanda Seyfried didn’t…), but on the whole the US dames present at this year’s Con were entirely outshone by their breezy British counterparts.
Just about every film panel hosted in Comic-Con’s historic Hall H consisted of at least one British person this year, and it was the Brit birds who were the best value for money.
In particular, a surprisingly flirty and feisty Kate Beckinsale came out guns a-blazing, calling her skin-tight Underworld 4 costume “a condom” and teasing that she was “doing the Basic Instinct pose” under the table.

I see they've stopped calling it 5nal Destination, which frankly looks a bit rude...

Tintin? Exactly what audience are they aiming at? Im 40 and ive never heard of Tintin, I asked a coworker whos 50 and he has no idea. I found the 'teaser' trailer hilarious because it did a reveal of Tintin as if he was someone everyone would recognize. My giveas**tfactor is 0 for this movie PS. Didn't you learn a lesson from Polar Express and Mars needs Moms?

Mitchsn, Tintin is not aimed at you, obviously ? In fact it could be that is not aiming at British audience entirely but, given that Tin Tin was released all over the world, I guess you can trust Spielberg and Peter Jackson to know what they are doing. It's a shame if British audience missed out on the comics but maybe it was not released because it was Belgian ? Either way it was excellent and I expect , given the people at the helm, this will be too regardless of previous knowledge.

I'm 40, live in the UK and a fan of TinTin. Me and all my friends were given the books as reading material at school on rainy lunch hours (along with Asterix btw). Tin Tin's animated adventures were also shown on BBC1 here. I look forward to the film.
