The new "Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn" teaser still keeps its hero in the shadows, but it's given the world a glimpse at what director Steven Spielberg and producerPeter Jackson have put together. A few tweeters feel like it may have jumped a little too far into the uncanny valley, though.
Meanwhile, Jon Stewart and Bill O'Reilly's debate last night attracted a few responses as well. Reactions to that, news of an up-and-coming Marvel trivia champion and Simon Pegg's new fight to raise awareness are each on the record after the jump.

@simonpegg I've decided not to tweet for two weeks to raise awareness of the importance of lowering awareness of oneself in the social media universe.
