{{quote|"...while nothing in ''Tintin'' is quite as richly nightmarish as the waxen-faced corpse of Tom Hanks sauntering through ''[[The Polar Express]]'' or the kinky video game avatar of Angelina Jolie in ''[[Beowulf]]'', it's still a bit eye-watering in places. Particularly in the beginning, before one has a chance to really get used to the sight of almost photorealistic people with comic book facial features, which we've never really had in the movies before, and Jesus Christ is it ever something the brain's not really equipped to deal with."|'''[http://antagonie.blogspot.com/2011/12/boy-and-his-dog.html Antagony and Ecstasy]''' on ''[[The Adventures of Tintin]]''}}
{{quote|"Whereas formerly, before the advent of machinery, the commonest article you could pick up had a life and warmth which gave it individual interest, now everything is turned out to such a perfection of deadness that one is driven to pick up and collect, in sheer desperation, the commonest rubbish still surviving from the earlier periods."|'''Harold Speed''',
{{quote|For my part, I prefer aliens that look alien. Then when they ritually eat their first-born, or turn arthropod halfway through their life-cycle, it isn’t so much of a shock. You expect it. Humanoid aliens, they’re trouble.
