Here is the first official trailer for Steven Spielberg's The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn, which will debut in the U.S. on December 23rd in 3-D. It appears from the trailer that this will be a reverential, almost shot-for-comic-panel adaptation of Herge's hugely popular (everywhere in the world except the U.S.) graphic novel.

If Spielberg's film, which cost $135 million to produce, is successful, it could establish a niche for motion-capture animation. If not, along with the massive failure of Disney's Mars Need Moms, it could provide the death knell for the format.

Spielberg's film, which is produced by Peter Jackson, features vocal work by Jamie Bell (Tintin), Andy Serkis (Captain Haddock), Daniel Craig (Red Rackham), and Simon Pegg and Nick Frost as Thomson and Thompson.
