Three unicorns in company, sailing in the noonday volition speak. From what is from the calorie-free, that the light will dawn so shines along the eagle cantankerous". So Tintin on the parchment had been in a transport's mast, it fell out of the mast when the ship turned over and then rolled information technology into the agency and he who stole the ship knew that parchment independent therein. Just when the thief took the ship, he discovered that the parchment was non at that place so he came dorsum to the flat to look for it, but he did non think it had fallen below the cabinet.

When Haddock winds upwardly drinking spirits inadvertently provided by Snowy, he tells the story again. The awful revelation that Sir Francis Haddock saw was the pirates' leader, Red Rackham, who managed to overpower and capture the crew. Rackham, threatened to throw the knight's men overboard if he did not tell was the Unicorn's secret cargo was. Haddock revealed the surreptitious door to the send's hidden cargo holds and where was the underground cargo: 4 hundredweight of gold, jewels and treasures.

Music
John Williams composed the musical score for The Adventures of Tintin. It was Williams' kickoff film score since 2008's Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,[1] every bit well every bit his start animated film. Most of the score was written while the moving-picture show's animation was still in the early stages, with Williams attempting to employ "the quondam Disney technique of doing music first and accept the animators trying to follow what the music is doing". Eventually several cues had to be revised when the film was edited. The composer decided to use various musical styles, with "1920s, 1930s European jazz" for the opening credits, or "pirate music" for the battle at sea.[2] It was released on 21 October 2011 through Sony Classical Records.[3]
The score received very positive reviews from critics.

Reception
The Adventures of Tintin was well responded to past critics, and bankrupt Pixar's streak by taking the 2012 Golden Earth Award for Best Blithe Picture show. It did not, however, continue to win the University Laurels for the same category (which information technology was non even nominated for). It was nominated for the University Award for Best Original Score, but lost to "The Artist."
Changes from the Source Textile
Every bit the picture mainly draws its story from The Clandestine of the Unicorn (1943), The Crab with the Gilded Claws (1941), and to a small degree, Ruby-red Rackham'southward Treasure (1944), several major differences were made from the source fabric:
Instead of the Bird Brothers beingness the main villains who wanted to find Ruby Rackham's treasure, Sakharine, the originally innocent model ship collector of the source textile, is re-imagined equally the main villain and the i who is determined to find the scrolls to the treasure and is a descendant of Red Rackham.
Red Rackham's treasure is now instead the property, or at least the stewardship, of Francis Haddock, which eliminates the connotation from the original books of our heroes claiming the treasure equally stolen belongings for themselves. Furthermore, the treasure is not just the contents of a small chest, but a comparatively vast treasure trove hidden in a hush-hush concur on the Unicorn.
In the original volume of The Surreptitious of the Unicorn, Tintin intends to buy the model of the Unicorn as a gift for Captain Haddock, but because of the altered series of events in the picture show, Tintin purchases the model for himself as he does not know Haddock until he gets captured by Sakharine and the coiffure of the Karaboudjan. Tintin besides learns that Captain Haddock is a descendant of Sir Francis Haddock on board the merchant ship shortly after meeting him rather how he learns of it in the original Hugger-mugger of the Unicorn book.
Barnaby is no longer a lackey of the Bird Brothers as he was in the original The Secret of the Unicorn book and is instead an FBI agent who is tasked to protect the iii models of the Unicorn from being put into bad hands. He besides perishes in the movie after being shot at Labrador Route rather than what happens to him in the original book.
The opium smuggling venture from The Crab with the Golden Claws is removed entirely from the film's plot (though it is referenced during the final battle scene of the storyline where Snowy makes the aforementioned crab tins from the original book fall, tumble, and significantly obstruct a number of the Karaboudjan's crewmates.)
When Tintin gets chloroformed, he gets sent to the Karaboudjan by its crew instead of Marlinspike Hall past unidentified goons of the Bird Brothers.
Omar Ben Salaad is no longer a drug smuggler like how he was in the original Crab with the Golden Claws book and is instead the sheikh of Bagghar and a collector of model ships. He is too instead a neutral character rather than a antagonist.
Nestor is initially portrayed every bit the private driver of Sakharine and only vastly later becomes the future butler of Helm Haddock, whereas in the original books he was ever a butler.
The coiffure of the Karaboudjan (minus Haddock) work for Sakharkine in the motion-picture show instead of working for Ben Salaad in the original Crab with the Golden Claws book.
Bianca Castafiore appears in the film, just does non in the original story source textile the film adapts.
Trivia
According to pg. 95 of The Art of The Adventures of Tintin, the events of the motion picture take place in 1949[four].
However, according to the newspaper Barnaby used to spell out the Karaboujan, the film is set up in 1944.
Many references to other adventures, characters and productions of the franchise appear in the film, which include the post-obit, merely not limited to:
One of the cameos of the Moon Rocket in the motion picture's opening credits.
Professor Calculus' Moon Rocket from Destination Moon and Explorers on the Moon appears twice in the opening credits, first as a graphic on a mug in the very first shot, and later seen flight in the railroad train chase sequence.
The Ellispe-Nelvana animated series from the 1990's is referenced when a searchlight appears and focuses on Tintin and Snowy when they run off to the train station, mimicking the iconic logo of the animated serial.
Several locations that Tintin and other characters have visited appear every bit reachable destinations on the railroad train station'due south timetable, including the Congo, Shanghai, the Black Island, San Theodoros,and Syldavia.
The Black Island itself, Craig Dhui Castle, appears in the background during the train chase.
One of the statues of Pulau-Pulau Bomba isle from Flying 714 appears during the railroad train hunt merely before Tintin and Snowy duck themselves through the railway tunnel.
At the start of the flea market scene when Tintin is receiving a self-portrait of himself from a Hergé await-alike, portraits of many characters from the other comic books appear, including Bobby Smiles, Sophocles Sarcophagus, Dr Ridgewell, Decimus Phostle, the Bird Brothers, and several others.
When Tintin arrives back at his apartment in the beginning of the motion picture, newspapers detailing previous adventures he has had are shown, including Tintin in the Congo, Cigars of the Pharaoh, The Blue Lotus, The Broken Ear, The Blackness Isle, and Rex Ottokar's Sceptre.
Le Petit Vingtième is referenced by utilization of its proper name for a generic paper provider that the Thompsons share with Tintin afterwards the decease of Barnaby.
The function where Haddock uncovers a coiffure member on board the Karaboudjan who was sleeping inside one of the lifeboats is similar to how Professor Calculus managed get on board the Sirius in Ruddy Rackham's Treasure past hiding in a lifeboat and afterwards having a snooze inside of it.
The shot that mirrors a console from Land of Black Gold.
When Tintin, Haddock, and Snowy are trying to avoid being shot down by CN-3411, Tintin aims his pistol for defense in a very similar position equally to how he aims in one particular console during the climax of Land of Black Gilded.
When Sakharine attempts to escape with the scrolls in Bagghar alongside Allan and Tom, the vehicle that Tom drives to escort them is a red jeep identical to the one used by the Thompsons, and later Tintin throughout Land of Blackness Gold.
As mentioned before, the crab tins from The Crab with the Golden Claws appear at one part of the dock crane battle scene betwixt Haddock and Sakharine.
During the catastrophe of the film, Tintin is wearing the aforementioned casual conform he wore in The Crab with the Golden Claws which consisted of a brown blazer, a white shirt and tie underneath a yellow 5-cervix pullover vest, his usual dark-brown plus-fours with blackness socks, and brownish shoes.
The manner how Tintin was able to suspension out of his imprisonment at Marlinspike Hall past using a large fragment of wood is referenced when the aforementioned tactic used by him and Haddock to gain entry into Sir Francis' cellar of splendors.

Originally, the second Tintin film was to exist based on Hergé'south The 7 Crystal Balls and Prisoners of the Dominicus. However, screenwriter Anthony Horowitz later stated that those books would be the second sequel and some other story would get the outset sequel.
Peter Jackson appear that he would directly the sequel once he had finished The Hobbit trilogy. Ii years before The Hugger-mugger of the Unicorn, Jackson mentioned that his favorite Tintin stories were The Vii Crystal Balls, Prisoners of the Lord's day, The Black Island, and The Calculus Affair, just he had not even so decided which stories would form the footing of the second film. He added "it would exist great" to use Destination Moon and Explorers on the Moon for a 3rd or fourth moving picture in the series.
Past the time The Clandestine of the Unicorn was released, Spielberg said the volume that would form the sequel had been chosen and that the Thomson and Thompson detectives would "have a much bigger role".

In the months following the release of The Hugger-mugger of the Unicorn, Spielberg revealed that a story outline for the sequel had been completed and that it was based on ii books. Horowitz tweeted that Professor Calculus would be introduced in the sequel. During a press tour in Belgium for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, Jackson said he intended to shoot performance-capture in 2013, aiming for a release date in 2015.
In March 2013, Spielberg said: "Don't hold me to information technology, but we're hoping the moving-picture show volition come out around Christmas-time in 2015. We know which books we're making, we can't share that now but nosotros're combining two books which were e'er intended to be combined by Hergé". He refused to confirm the names of the books, but said The Blue Lotus would probably exist the third Tintin moving picture. In December 2014, when Jackson was asked if the Tintin sequel would be his next project subsequently The Hobbit trilogy, he said that information technology would be fabricated "at some point presently", but he added that he wanted to straight two New Zealand films before that.
In June 2015, Jamie Bell stated that the sequel was titled Tintin and the Temple of the Sun and that he hoped shooting would begin in early on 2016 for a possible release by the end of 2017 or early on 2018. Later in November, Horowitz said that he was no longer working on the sequel, and did not know if it was still being made, and in March 2016, he confirmed that the script he had written for the sequel had been scrapped.
On March 2016, Spotter.co.nz announced that Jackson would produce the sequel rather than straight.

In March 2018, Spielberg reiterated the above, proverb that "Peter Jackson has to practise the 2d part. Normally, if all goes well, he will presently start working on the script. As it takes 2 years of blitheness work on the movie, for you, I would non expect to see it for near three years. But Peter volition stick to it. Tintin is not dead!"
