Is it true that Tintin was based on the intellect and boyish charm of Stuart? That Haddock is a thinly veiled cartoon of Brose? And are the Thompson Twins merely the Stephen Twins? No, not at all. That's ridiculous and such speculation has no place in the blurb for this episode!
What IS this week's film for discussion? If you haven't guessed (or read it in iTunes when you clicked on the episode) maybe you shouldn't listen to ChatFlix?
It is The Adventures of Tintin!! Stephen Spielberg (the Stephen triplets?) and Peter Jackson's combined effort to adapt Tintin and make an Indiana Jones movie without Indiana Jones.

For seven weeks Shaun and Brose are discussing the debut films of prominent directors. Robert Rodriguez, P T Anderson, the Coen Brothers, the Wachowskis, Wes Anderson and Ben Affleck.
For week two we are checking out Christopher Nolan's 1998 debut theatrical film: Following. The man that went on to re-invent the troubled Batman franchise and cinema in general with films like Inception, Interstellar, Insomnia and other films not starting with the letter 'i.'
In 1981 John Carpenter dared imagine a not-too distant future (1997), when New York City would be walled off to the rest of the USA and turned into a maximum security prison. Terrorists have crashed the President within these walls and the President's only hope is Kurt Russell (Trump wishes Russell was all he needed!).
