If you interpret Lucifer/Satan as the morning star - bringer of light and enlightenment, driven and independent, then I'm completely ok with him (as a fictional character).

So in answer to the original question, maybe, but it depends who you ask.

Coming back to something mentioned earlier, does religion form the basis of ethics?

My first instinct would be to say "no, empathy does", but I say that after growing up with some religious framework imposed by the world around me, if not at home.

Zarban is banned from poker.

Is there a history of substance abuse? It seems like terrible decision after terrible decision - is anyone giving him advice at this point?

Squiggly, how much Tintin had you been exposed to prior to the movie?

If the answer is none or very little, it wasn't for you. You could argue that every thing should be made for as wide an audience as possible, but that's a position I don't agree with.

I am a huge fan, both of the graphic novels and the magnificent 2011 film.

Returning to the earlier posts about it, I'm not sure there's anything specific I could mention that didn't work - given the familiarity with the source material. I never felt it hit the "uncanny valley" with the characters - rather sailed right over and on to the other side.
