tintinandco

Production on the much awaited Tintin movie has finally started.

These men are titans in this genre. This movie. Will be. The shit. …”

I don’t think I can top that quote!

I am paying an average of $0.44 per movie – this includes movies I get as DVDs and those I stream online through my Xbox or Windows Media Center PC. Not bad at all!
