The trailer for Paramount Pictures’ The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn has hit YouTube seven months before the movie is set to premiere.
The movie, a collaboration between director Steven Spielberg and producer Peter Jackson, uses motion-capture 3D technology (a la Avatar) to create very realistic computer animation. The first few seconds of the trailer tease the effect by showing characters in shadows and in a glass reflection.
The movie, based on the Belgian comic strip character, is set for U.S. release on December 23. Anticipation is so strong, though, that a fake YouTube trailer has gotten 80,000 views by telling viewers “Wait, don’t leave!” and then showing a few screenshots.
