Title: Nick Frost and Simon Peg in Tin Tin? DEMIIIIIII

...Pegg is in Hollywood, having just finished work on his latest film, How to Lose Friends & Alienate People, when he gets a call saying Steven Spielberg would like to meet him.

So he trots over to the motion-capture set for the ET director’s latest project - the first in a trilogy of Tintin movies. Motion-capture sets are bizarre, empty places. The event has been shot and is held in a computerised camera, which allows the director to swoop around the scene. As a result, there is only a computer guy and Spielberg sitting there.

“Steven’s smoking a stogy, cap on head, like he’s always been since I was a baby,” Pegg says, shaking his head in wonder. “I shook his hand and chatted about films. He gave me the mo-cap [motion-capture] camera, and I had a play around with it. Then he said, ‘Hey, maybe you and Nick Frost could play the Thompson Twins.’ In Tintin. A Spielberg movie. To work with him is beyond .. . ” He trails off, lost for words.

They both really kinda suck. Frost is the better of the two, though.

My site's been getting a nice burst of traffic because of this, though. I can appreciate that.

Funny, I thought I'd heard somewhere yesterday the whole thing was scrapped due to cost.

Edit: Shit, never mind. I finally looked at the link Demi provided. :duh
