Simon Pegg & Nick Frost to play….

the Thompson Twins in the forthcoming Tintin movie!

According to ‘Shortlist’ (London village freebie paper trying to be like FHM, etc) this morning.

IMDB would agree, at least for now..

Pics??

And – do you get the impression no one else knows what we’re on about?

what are you on about

I’d imagine there are a few other people on here who were alive in the 80s..

ummm that’s just goddam strange, the thompson twins were identical in the comic books
(yes I was alive in the 80’s & most of the 70’s too)

Maybe it sets the theme of the whole movie – sounds good.
Hope Haddock is a proper alcy…

I wonder if this will be the first film Simon Pegg is in which he didn’t write or be directed by Edgar Wright which will be any good.

saw them live with Adam and the Ants…..So much hairspray it’s a wonder the whole place didn’t explode when some-one lit a fag

I wonder if it will be the first film since Shaun of the Dead in which he hasn’t got his head stuck up his bum.

What was that one with David Scwimmer in? I thought he was half decent in that.

You’re right though, Hot Fuzz was not a patch on Shaun of the Dead.

Technically, the Thom(p)son twins were unrelated, but looked identical. One was Thomson, the other Thompson. It was a bit of a joke or something.

Simon Pegg better as Tintin, imo.

Ahh, that famous Belgian humour.

one is going to look like they do normally, the other is going to look like him through CGI, similar to how they animated Gollum in Lord of the Rings.

Still won’t get me to see the film though. I think i’d rather repeatedly stab myself in the scrotum with a rusty screwdriver.
