Was it on that movie as well? I heard TDKR was on Sherlock.

It was on 10% of Ghost Protocol's locations.

Expected a bit more from Tintin.MI4 did nicely though.



Chris Hu on 25 December 2011

The Adventures of Tin Tin should have done a little bit better but according to Wikipedia it already made $250,632,000 world wide and since about half the box office money goes back to the studios it already covered most of its $135 million dollar budget and will be profitable soon.



Coca-Cola on 25 December 2011

just watched MI4 - it was pretty good, but I expected it to be little better. but can't complaint.
loved the ending - the very ending when ethan gets a call about the drones. haha

I do not know how to quote on my kindle. Worldwide is what will save tinting. Isn't a big deal in America. Spielberg is though.


World wide will not only save The Andventures of Tin Tin it will make it very profitable a sequel is pretty much guranteed and with strong video sales another sequel will probably be also very likely be announced before production on the second film is even started.  I don't think Spielberg other current movie War Horse will perform quiet as good at the box office.

I agree about war horse. It has gotten good reviews, but it is something I do not really car about. If it has little competition maybe it will have w better time of making profit. I would have to go to wikipedia to see the budget. Though.


My local paper the Fort Worth Star Telegram thought it was one of Spielberg's worst movies and gave it 2 out of 5 stars, The Adventures of Tin Tin did only slightly better and got 3 out of 5 stars.  Also according to Wikipedia War Horse had a budget of $75 million dollars which isn't too big so even if it doesn't do so good at the box office its should be able to make a profit once its on video and pay per view.
