Tintin: The shooting star. Script

Dado que los subtítulos automáticos de YouTube no funcionan especialmente bien, abajo os dejo con una transcripción de los diálogos del capítulo de The adventures of Tintín: The shooting star en inglés por si queréis practicar un poco vuestro listening. La serie está genial para hacer oído, dado que al ser una serie para niños, los diálogos son cortos y el vocabulario es sencillo. Además es más divertido ver dibujitos que una película en carne y hueso. Podéis ver el capítulo aquí.

The shooting star

Tintin: Is or not a wonderful night, Snowy?

Snowy: Wow.

Tintin: Well, yes. It is a little hot. Uhm, that's strange: I've never known that star before. I smell a story here. Come on, Snowy. Hello, Observatory? I'm calling about a...

Voice in telephone: No, no, no. It's imposible. Oh, dear. You call yourself a scientist?

Tintin: Hello? They hung up. Hello?

Philippulus the prophet: A judgement! A judgement, yea!

Tintin: Ah, excuse me...

Philippulus the prophet: A judgement, woe!!

Tintin: Hello? What! That must be the main telescope, wow.

Decimus Phostle: No, no, no. It is imposible. It must be a mistake.

Tintin: Excuse me. Excuse me!

Scientist: Shhh!!

The refraction of this Following a negative Where's the matrix intensity so team first negative. Shhh!

Tintin: But..., but... I wonder if... Pfiuu, I thought so. It's OK, it was only a...

Scientist: Sir, please. Professor, you must have made a mistake.

Decimus Phostle: I have not made a mistake. My calculations are correct.

Scientist: Oh, dear! Oh, dear!

Tintin: It's something wrong? Ah, Sir...

Decimus Phostle: Have a look!

Tintin: What is it?

Decimus Phostle: I, Decimus Phostle, have discovered a gigantic mass of matter in fusion. A flaming meteorite is heading straight for the Earth. It's the end of the world! At precisely 08:00 hours.

Philippulus the prophet: A judgement is upon us. Repent! The end of the world is at hand.

Tintin: The end of the world. Hey, yeiks. Snowy! Poor Snowy, you're stuck in the melted tar. Come on, we'll... They're absolutely panic-stricken. The tires are burnsting from the heat. What next?

Philippulus the prophet: Woe! A judgement! A judgement is upon us!

Tintin: You!

Philippulus the prophet: There will be famine and pestilence and measels.

Tintin: Look here. Why don't you go home to bed?

Philippulus the prophet: Sit down and look what I brought you. Behold the judgement!

Tintin: No, no! Leave me alone! I've must been dreaming. It wasn't the end of the world. We're alive. Snowy, it was only an earthquake. Let's get to the observatory, Snowy. The scientist made a mistake. Professor Phostle, Profesor Phostle...

Phostle: You bungling imbecile! Out, out, out! Oh, dear. You call yourself a scientist?

Tintin: Did he you something wrong?

Phostle: He made a mistake on the figures. All my calculations were wrong.

Tintin: But something happened out there.

Phostle: Only a small piece of the meteorite hit. The rest passed by. What a disappointment!

Scientist: Professor, I have the spectroscope of the meteorite.

Phostle: But, this is incredible. I have never seen such a formation before. I have discovered a new metal.

Scientist: Congratulations Professor. May I suggest the name phostlite?

Phostle: You may! Let's celebrate. Order ten pounds of jelly beans.

Tintin: Did you know where the meteorite landed?

Phostle: It was tracked to the Arctic Ocean. Arctic Ocean? We'll never find it now.

Tintin: But, if it was big enough, maybe part of it is sticking up out of the water.

Phostle: Do you think so?

Tintin: You could form an international expedition.

Phostle: We could get funding from the International Scientific Society. We're going to the Arctic! We're going to the Arctic!

Radio voice: As the Aurora prepares to sail and search the meteorite that hit the Earth last month, let's have a few words with Professor Phostle, the leader of the expedition.

Phostle: We would like to thank the various governments who agreed to help fund our research.

Radio voice: Professor, would you be kind enough to introduce your team?

Phostle: Gladly. We have Doctor Otto Schulze of the University of Munich; Professor Paul Cantonneau, of Paris; Señor Porfirio Bolero y Calamares, of the University of Salamanca; the distinguished Swedish scholar Björgenskjöld; and the renowned physicist Senhor Dos Santos, from Coimbra. Captain Haddock is in command of our research ship and Tintin will accompany us as a representative of the press.

Tintin: Ah, this is the life, Snowy! I think we should go back inside.

Captain Haddock: We're making good time. We shall reach the Arctic Ocean by tomorrow if this weather keeps up.

Sailor: Captain, I think you should see this.

Haddock: Why, those thieving toads, fresh water anfibians!

Phostle: Is something wrong?

Haddock: The Peary set sail from San Rico yesterday. They're trying to beat us to the meteorite. If the Peary wants a race, they've got it. Engine room: increase speed ten nuts!

Sailor: I'll do my best.

Tintin: You know, Captain? There's something strange going on. An expedition like this is very expensive. Every government in the world has helped finance us.

Haddock: So, what are you getting at?

Tintin: Who's financing the Peary?

Bad guy: Mister director, gentlemen: we're going to be rich. The new metal in the meteorite could be worth millions. We're taking a big financial risk but I assure you I have taken precautions. The Aurora will not reach the meteorite. (Bad guy laughs)

Tintin: Careful, Snowy. You don't want to swept overboard

Haddock: Ah, Tintin. Nice little breeze, isn't it?

Tintin: I can't see a thing.

Haddock: Don't worry. The operator is maundering the radio. He'll tell us if anything is close.

Tintin: No!

Haddock: We're gonna make it. Thundering typhoons. Shipwreckers! Rude dogs! Demolition What such of captain sails without lights radio idiot was trying to sink us.

Tintin: Yes, you would.

Bad guy: They've failed. Those fools. Now we're back where we started! But I'll get them yet!

Phostle: Good morning, Tintin. Don't you just hate this ice?

Haddock: Those trying to sink my ship wait till I'll get my hands on them! Blistering typhoons!

Sailor: Ahoy, Captain. Ship sighted on the board side.

Haddock: It's the Peary.

Tintin: They're going to beat us to the meteorite.

Haddock: Not likely, the Aurora is got a fine and strong engine. We'll over take them this afternoon.

Sailor: What?

Sailor: Captain, we have an emergency.

Haddock: What? I called this meeting, gentlemen, because at approximatetly zero eight hundred hours, the Aurora received an S.O.S. signal. If we move to answer the distress call, the Peary will beat us to the meteorite.

Tintin: There are people on that ship. Their lives are in danger.

Phostle: There's no question about it. We must go to their aid.

Scientist: Yes, agree.

Haddock: All hands top side. Runners turn on left.

Tintin: This S.O.S doesn't name a ship.

Haddock: We manage to get VIL, but then we lost radio contact.

Tintin: Uhm, another unidentified ship, eh? This is the research ship Aurora to the shipping registry office.

Radio voice: We heard you, Aurora. Go ahead!

Tintin: We'd like a location check on all ships beginning with the initials VIL. Over. Captain, I've called everyone and I've learned there are no ships whose name starts with the letters VIL operating anywhere near of these waters. The S.O.S. was a fake.

Haddock: Blistering barnacles. Engine room: increase speed.

Sailor: What?

Haddock: Who such a crazy staff?

Tintin: The people financing the Peary by getting back turn around they've won the race.

Sailor: Captain, we've just received a message from the Peary. They have the meteorite in sight.

Tintin: We still have a chance, Captain. We've got the seaplane.

Haddock: Good luck, Tintin.

Tintin: There it is! Captain, we've sighted the meteorite!

Haddock: Really? Hooray! What's its position?

Tintin: It forms an island sloping slightly towards the west, and... Great snakes! The Peary has beaten us to it!

Haddock: The Peary has beaten them to it!

Sailor of the Peary: That plane is from the Aurora.

Tintin: No, wait. They've just launched the boat.

Haddock: They've just floating in the boat.

Sailor of the Peary: Pull!

Captain of the Peary: Come on, come on! Pull! Pull! Have you gone crazy, Frank?

Sailor of the Peary: One more!

Pilot: He did it!

Haddock: He did it! Hooray!

Pilot: The Aurora will be here in a few hours.

Tintin: We'll wait here.

Pilot: Take this food.

Tintin: Good bye! A worm! Come on, Snowy. Let's take a look around. What is that? Let's get out of here. I think we're save now. Wow! An apple tree? It must have grown from that apple I threw away. The meteorite is causing this. It's affecting to grow everything on this island. That's the last.  Great snakes! Run, Snowy! No! Pfiuuu. We're sinking. Over here!

Pilot: The meteorite is sinking. I'm gonna try to land. Over and out!

Tintin: Where he go?

Pilot: I can't get any closer. Crumb on this rope.

Tintin: Got it! Ready, Snowy? Let's go.

Pilot: Tintin, what're you doing? Hurry, hurry, hurry up, Tintin!

Tintin: We did it!

Haddock: There they are!

Tintin: I brought back a piece of the meteorite. Look out!

Radio voice: This just in. The research of the Aurora has returned from his succesful meteorite expedition. And in related news the police have just to know there's be lain in charge against San Rico bank for sabotage and fraud.   Back on the Aurora, pieces of the mysterious and powerful meteorite are now at the hands of a greatful scientific community thanks to captain Haddock and Tintin.
