Tintin Wins Globe

You've probably seen all the A-listers clutching their Golden Globe Awards, but did you notice that Best Animated Feature Film went to The Adventures Of Tintin (2011)? In Britain it's called The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn (2011). I guess we like longer titles here. This is modern art. If you don't believe me, take a look at the long lists under Art Department and Visual Effects (CLICK). The big question is: Are our art schools training artists to enter this field or are they merely churning out inartistic clots hoping to win the Turner Prize? The Adventures of Tintin cost an estimated $130m. And look at the companies involved: Paramount Pictures, Columbia Pictures, Hemisphere Capital, Amblin Entertainment, Wingnut Films Production, Kennedy/Marshall Production. In comparison the Turner Prize is very small potatoes. Yet the purported elite of British artists is a handful of its nominees and winners. Artists are being led up the garden path by the Brit. Anti-art Establishment. Above is Wallpaper 7 featuring Tintin and Snowy (2011). Click the title link for the full list of Golden Globe winners. There are links to wallpapers too.
