Thunderbirds 2004 - Launch Sequences
Vložit

- As requested... In one huge compilation, all the launch sequences from the 2004 Thunderbirds movie! The fact that it's only 5 minutes long should tell you everything that's wrong with the movie - and that's including my channel thingy at the beginning, which is probably the highlight... Anyway, you can see I've made my mind up - what do you think? Do you like the sequences? Did you like the film? Let me know in the comments below!
Sorry some of the launches are broken up - I edited out some plot points so as not to take away from the sequences. Disclaimer: As you may well have guessed, I do not own any of the footage or audio in this video nor anything to do with any series or version of Thunderbirds. How ever much I wish I did.
I actually quite liked this movie. Watched it all the time as a kid.
Me too !!
We were missing the Countdown here, that would improve the Launch-Sequences.
You poor thing.
thomasfan# 1 people say the movie was bad but I liked it
Yh
I remember being really fond of this movie when I was a kid, doesn’t look so good now 😂
Same dude...same
Ye it looks rly cheesy
Same bro 😂
Same man. Its just the act of growing up 😂
STILL LOOKS GOOD
Any one else noticed the puppet hand at 1:47? That's a reference to the original series because there were lots of scenes with real hands in it.
Yes, we saw it. We ALL saw it... we have eyes for a reason.

REEEEEEEEEEEE!
Bill Paxton, Sir Ben Kingsley, they did the best with the crap they were given. It's really sad though, this could have really been something.
As other people put it, they were trying to recreate a spy kids kind of movie. But it's Thunderbirds, it should have been about 5 brothers in their late 20s and mid 30s saving the world. And they should have been portrayed as the right stuff, like the Mercury astronauts they're named after. All we got was a misdirected mess and cringefest.
Absolutely. I was looking forward to seeing it and it was terrible. I grew up watching Supermarianation shows back in the 60's. So much potential and it flopped.
@@dcolb121 Because it was for kids you drip.
Totally agree, as a kid of the sixties who has loved the show ever since (plus my kids loved it in the 00’s), I couldn’t bear to see it, having read the odd review and watching the trailer. A brilliant IP totally wasted on the short lived ‘spy kid’ genre, which was popular at the time.
I’ve always loved that little Easter egg of the close up of the hands being marionette hands. They knew the fans of the original would be sitting in quiet contempt while their kids or grandkids watched so that little callback I’m sure at least put a smile on some faces.
I grew up on this movie so I am naturally in love with it...
Same with me.
Same. Damn how time flies
this movie is awful the orignal series are wayyy better
i mean look at the thunderbird vehicles wtf did they do with it
thunderbird 4 is a complete other design
thunderbird 2 looks awful in this pile of crap movie, not worth a penny more then a justin bieber album. Origional is superior then this crap.
Same dude
Thunderbird 3 probably had the best launch of these. Maybe because it was an homage to Apollo 13.
You know, you can't deny that the music in Thunderbirds is FANTASTIC! Especially at 0:50; just wonderful!
Zimmer didn't disappoint. The opening credits and "International Rescue" are my favourite tracks in the OST.
@@claritycontrol1530 I'm also a big fan of TB 3 take-off
小学生の時に映画館に観に行ってめちゃくちゃ興奮した映画！正月とか夏休みとかにNHKでやってたサンダーバードを見てめちゃくちゃハマってまさかそれが実写化するなんて子供の時は嬉しかったなぁ
個人的には大好きな映画です❗
Love Thunderbird 2’s sequence, just opening the doors to such a big behemoth of a machine.
ya it does get the feel of sheer weight and size across now if only the occupents didn't look like braidy bunch villains.
thunderbird 2 is by far the best. i had a toy of it and i have so many memories playing with it.
Just goes to show that you should never mess with a good known classic
Yeah, you do have a point there
1:49 that's a puppet hand! Nice reference to the original thunderbirds
2:35 Look at that! This movie has shown us the exact location of Tracy Island. Great job giving away the location of a secret facility, movie! Great job!
it has always been known that its midway between Australia and South America
+Richard Baalman Yeah, but not exactly where. The Pacific is a massive amount of space and Tracy Island is quite small. It might've been either exactly in the middle point or a bit closer to South America or Australia.
its about 175 km off the shore of australia. go watch the ring of fire from thunderbirds are go
Omg you are really stupid,of course a thunderbird will have the location of his own island
what the hell?thunderbirds are go? how stupid and also when tb3 lands in london it lands on grass?
Thunderbird 3 was the best redesign. But it also had the best launch sequence of the film. In fact the best scenes in the film, in my opinion, feature Thunderbird 3 in some way. Especially that shot of it coming through the atmosphere.
I think it’s design is better than the 2015 version. The 2015 version looks like it was made in Minecraft.
What makes this movie is the scale of the Thunderbirds themselves, I mean, seeing Thunderbird 1, 2 and 3 take off in live action is pretty damn cool. Also Zimmer's score, not only the remix's of the main theme, but also the themes he created for the kids and The Hood. Even if the movie is held back by its lackluster story and characters. Also, making a Thunderbirds movie where Scott, Virgil, Gordon and John are barely in it and are basically cameos is like making an Avengers movie where Cap, Thor, and Iron Man are mere cameos.
The little nod of "They've got this trust them" from lady Penelope 😄
This movie felt like a fever dream, used to be so addicted to it as a kid
As the late great Gerry Anderson (RIP) said: "this was the biggest load of crap that I have seen in my whole life".
+mtpride94 DAM-STRAIGHT!
Yes and rip Bill Paxton
That’s sooooo sad. Imagine being completely shut out of your own vision; as a creative person that would be a form of death itself.
Yeah, I headed that BP fought for more access for him.
What we need now is someone like Netflix to tackle ‘UFO’
@Sailor Sedna from what i heard the director hates this as well. the studio and investors apparently squeezed the creativity of of the production
Thunderbird 2 looked like complete crap, that is what hurt me most..... absolutely wrong in every proportion
Launch sequence scenes are good, one of the few things this movie did right.
Sadly they were not up to the standards of the original series, no sense of mass and no build up.
Mike Smith I highly disagree with that these launch sequences are better and make more sense like how thunderbird 2 is moved by a separate machine that becomes the ramp
@@FFContent if she’s having to be moved on a ramp then she’s far too heavy, too heavy to be able to lift herself off the ramp and later on be able to take off vertically
@@Thundernerd2aBird not really, its because it (this version at least) doesn't have wheels
@@FFContent 🧐🧐 ah good spot. Still think she’s way too bulky in this film to have such tiny VTOL engines and wings, but I’ll take your point on how she got to the end of the runway. I naturally assumed she had wheels like the marionette and the new series one.
I actually liked this movie- I got it on clearance a few months back at Saturday Matinee. And from what I've read, you can't blame the cast members (who all delivered good performances and had a good time- Ben Kingsley and Anthony Edwards chose this movie because it was light-hearted and fun- for serious actors like them, they needed something like this as a break) or Jonathan Frakes for what a mess this became. It originally started out at PolyGram Films (they owned ITC for a time in the 90s) and originally planned it as an all-CGI flick, then planned to have the Baldwin brothers as the Tracys and Sean Connery as Jeff. Then the project "fell through the cracks" when Seagram's (yes, the liquor company) merged what remained of PolyGram with Universal. By the time Universal got the project started again, they'd gone through a crap-ton of scripts, Gerry Anderson had left his consulting position on the project, and somebody decided to rework it to be more like Spy Kids. And that's the whole sordid tale.
Tim Mischka
I agree with you there and people discredit it even though it had amazing CGI for it being made in 2004
This movie was and still is my childhood
It is still a fun movie, and I quite like the design of the crafts. I agree the execution for some of them, Thunderbird 5 mainly, does look a little strange but I love the concept they were going for. Thunderbird 5 looks like they were taking inspiration from the mural of Space Station 77 on Space Mountain at Disneyland. If they had kept more to something like that and gone with a different color scheme with proper lighting it might have looked better.
@@christopherhodges7607 What do you think of the Thunderbirds' designs in the new CGI show? The only one I don't care for is Thunderbird 2 (The original design is the best).
18 years later and I still love this movie
Christ your standards care low, this is crap
i think that movie was amazingly made and filmed perfectly!
but the vehicles suck they don't look like in the original series
gerry would hate this if he was still alive
+petr jack he did hate it.
This movie was featured whan I was a young kid and then My dad introduced me to the old puppet series. I love both. This movie was easy the "this kid watches it every time" movie. For some reason I don't care mutch about plots, and what it cautivated me are the tech: launch sequences, screeens,interfaces, controls, etc.
I'm afraid to say that the movie hasn't aged well but I watched it when I was around about 5 years old so there's just no way to hate this movie
Do like that they took elements of the designs from the film and put them into the new series that have.
Think they should do a new film, but not have it squarely directed at kids like this was, which let it done most I feel. Could have been a great film if Johnathan Fawkes had better control over the film.
Thunderbird 2 looks awesome from the front... then you see the back and it's like a stubby plastic bath toy!
i love Thunderbird 2, and 1 and 3 even Thunderbird 5 looks amazing (better then the crap in Thunderbird Are Go) and plus they are an organisation than rescuse's the world that most people cant do themselves, besides i dont like the 'BIG ROCKET ENGINES' thunderbird 2 has, i like this movie version cause it looks like future tech while still showing its a beast of a machine... thunderbird 1 in the movie, OH ITS SO BEAUTIFUL much better then the TV versions,
Peter Byrom I know why, I saw a behind the scenes and the front of thunderbird 2 was real but the back was cgi
@@FederationThunderbolt It's ironic, because the Thunderbirds Are Go designs much more visually interesting and in keeping with the original designs.
@@lorzon ive really only ever saw the movie, and legit like 3 or 5 episodes of the original
@@FederationThunderbolt You should watch the rest of it, it's a good show. Much of the 'sets' are miniatures by WETA Workshop while the characters are CG, but designed to look like marionettes.
I also noticed the puppet hand in thunderbird 1 launch and I have come to realise that not only is it just a reference to the original thunderbirds series with puppets, but in the puppets series in some scenes they actually use a normal persons hand to film it so I think they thought they would return the favour!
3:37: broke my heart seeing Thunderbird 5 blown up
Also at 2:07: love Sophia's outfit. She was perfect choice for Lady Penelope.
They should’ve given Thunderbird 2 a launch sequence at the start of the movie so we can actually see International Rescue deploy with it instead of just with the villains. It feels off the way they did it. You almost don’t want to watch Thunderbird 2 deploy because the villains are in it.
For a Thunderbirds movie, that’s a SIN
Thunderbird 3 has the coolest launch.
Definitely, Thunderbird 1 doesn’t move from the villa to the pool like it did in the original tv show, thunderbird 2 doesn’t have wheels, the pods are weird and looks bizarre but thunderbird 3 remains relatively close to the original launch
It's amazing how much the 2015 animated series developed some of the stylistic elements first seen in this movie. From little moments like "Thunderbird 4 is go" to the flying FAB-1, to the characterisation of the Hood and introducing two henchmen for him, the influence is there.
I think Thunderbird 3 launch is awesome!
Some company needs to make this movie again with today's technology.
The special effects and CG in this movie is still impressive.
Even though the film was BAD, the craft were pretty cool! I think they deserve a place in the hiztory of Thunderbirds' craft!
How is it these "real life" Thunderbirds look more fake than the actual animated ones we have now?
The Thunderbird 2 from the 2015 CG series is a bit too square and blocky for my liking.
Never cared much for Fermat tbh. Sure, he's not too bad in some scenes. Like for example, when Alan, Tin-Tin and Fermat are trying to escape from Mullion and his men with a hoversled. Alan was a bit harsh to Fermat and making fun of his stutter when Fermat's trying to make him see sense. And the shot of Fermat's hand appearing as a marionette during the Thunderbird 1 launch sequence was a nice nod to the TV series. But I still wish Brains had as much screen time as Fermat.
R.I.P. Bill Paxton
I honestly think Fermat was a worthless and redundant character that never should've been written in regardless, yet not only is he in there, but gets more screen time and focus than his father who was already well established. A complete waste. Brains never needed to have a child in this film. I think Grandma Tracy (the absent, unmentioned Tracy family member in this film) would've been better.
As for Alan, I find him nothing but an unlikeable, self-entitled whiner in this film who never even learns from it. Sure, there were a couple of times in the original series he was jealous of his brothers having more to do than him, but not to the point of being insufferable! Nowhere near.
And with these two and Tin-Tin (who didn't need more focus in the story when she was a minor character in the original series) not only being the main characters, but also spending a large amount of the story running around Tracy Island from the villains whilst spending the most time on the equipment, I need to ask - what the fuck does any of this have to do with Thunderbirds?! Let me put it simply - when I see a film done on Thunderbirds, I want to see dramatic and exciting rescues pulled off by ALL the Tracys, Brains, Lady Penelope and Parker working as a team. I do not want to see an unlikeable version of one of the siblings, a pointless son of an already well-enough established character for use and a minor character turned into a cheesy teenage girl, tediously evading villains (who also didn't need to exist when The Hood could've done all his own work like in the original show) on their own home island. If I wanted to see a film like that, I'd watch either Spy Kids or Home Alone. And it doesn't help that Scott, Virgil and Gordon look fuck-all like their puppet counterparts.
This film wasn’t great but damn this gives me nostalgia can’t believe this thing is 20 years old
I remember being so excited to see this movie. And then I saw it...
As a fan of the original, I actually really have a soft spot for this.
It is crap,get over it
I grew up with the original and I am neutral to it, now @robdykes3659 shut your mouth you mediocre tbs fan
This movie is old enough to drive...and I’m old enough to feel bad about it lol.
Is it just me or for a solid 5 years I forgot this movie even existed
Everyone did. It's atrocious and probably ruined many careers of many actors in this. I think the guy who played Virgil quit acting not long after this.
Dude , the fucking nostalgia , this was my favourite movie as a kid
Maybe some day, someone would actually make a
SERIOUS THUNDERBIRDS MOVIE !!!
The Tracy brothers are young ADULTS - not kids - and they go on missions with well written stories.
The closest thing to what I want right now is Thunderbirds Are Go.
This was so cool as a kid, now it’s well....
Dogshit. That's the word you're looking for.
I would love to see Thunderbirds Are Go remake this film.
The plot of one of the episodes did resemble this movie apart from the whole bank stuff and you could argue that the "Chaos Crew" in series 3 were slightly inspired by the two henchmen in this, except the new show is better written.
Different from the Thunderbird shows of the 60’s, but I’m still a loyal fan of this show...new or old 👍🏼👍🏼👏🏼
I really liked this movie!
It’s pretty sad when a TV show that is almost 60 years old, as strings attached to all the characters in it and a limited budget as aged so much better than a multi million movie made less then 20 years ago. Kind of show you the sad state of the entertainment world these days.
It really is a shame this movie was horrid. The Thunderbirds, in cinematic CGI, would've been so orgasmic, that despite the bad redesigns I STILL got chills when I saw them doing what I remember.
Anybody notice the puppet hand in the TB1 launch?
jafpies I Did :P
jafpies Where?
Ian Cotterill 1:47 when he lays his hand on the thrust
Oh yeah! Well spotted!
Yeah, I hated that hand! If you're doing a live action version commit to it, and if you don't respect the source material then leave it for someone else to adapt.
how could you mess the thunderbirds up so badly
This movie wasn't written for the original generation. It was written for a new generation and left the old one behind. I remember feeling so betrayed after watching it. I've never watched it again.
: Ello, ello, ello, this is it, folks. If we don't have a commercial now, we'll have to pass a ruddy hat.😂
For me this can't beat the original Thunderbirds. But I am an old guy :)
Thunderbirds are my favourite film especially with Bill Paxton starring as Jeff Tracy, Billionaire and ex astronaut of International Rescue
Paxton as Jeff Tracy was good casting. Too bad (to this, very, very old fan of the original series) the movie was garbage.
I would love another live action Thunderbirds film to be made. Not as a sequel to the 2004 film, but one which is more faithful to the original show. Where it’ll focus on all of the Tracy Family & Lady Penelope of course plus more Rescues and Disasters.
Next year will be the the 60th Anniversary of Thunderbirds and I think now is the right time for the franchise to be brought back into the spotlight on the Big Screen, as long as it’s done by the right people who care deeply about the source material like me as I’m big Thunderbirds fan myself.
Thunderbirds still has a strong following by fans everywhere especially here the UK 🇬🇧
Maybe they could use the Thunderbirds designs from this movie? I actually really love the redesigns. Which is probably why I wish Thunderbird 5 wasn't blown to pieces.
One of my fav films growing up
2:17 “Thunderbird 1 is go.”
3:21 “Thunderbird 2 is go.”
4:47 “Thunderbird 3 is go.”
5:07 “Thunderbird 4 is go.” (Thank you,Alan)
Thanks for the upload.
The palm trees falling aside is the BOMB, but in TOS, they mechanically fell away and bounced at the same time. Also, TB1 meandering into the air at liftoff lacked verisimilitude. Also, teenage GIRLS smiling like it's a prom limo is just WRONG. Oh! Oh! O-H-H-H-H!
first movie i ever remember being disappointed with. I was so excited when this movie was announced, then i went and saw it and was so upset at then end i even apologized to my sister for making her take me to the cinema to go see it
My brother saw this with dad back in the day then he got the DVD for Christmas that year. I bet he cried, it must've been so painful.
...Alright, this movie forgot a couple important details:
Virgil didn't get to do anything. John, in Thunderbird 5, got more screen time.
The Hood finding Tracy Island is just... *No.*
The Hood pilots Thunderbird 2 more than Virgil does.
A 9-year old boy whose name is not Joe flies Thunderbird 2 more than Virgil does.
Brains has a son. I feel much more hopeful though, if a guy like that could have children, there is still hope in this world.
Thunderbird 1's interior looks like a theme park ride at Disney, not a high speed VTOL rocket plane. Also, the blue interior lights weren't necessarily needed, we get it, Thunderbird 1 is the blue one.
Same for Thunderbird 2, except the chairs in that one just look uncomfortable and again, don't look like they'd be in an airship like that.
Thunderbird 2 overall just looks too bulky to believably fly with such tiny rocket engines, sure, neither the original or the 2015 rebooted versions would realistically fly, but at least they try to look reasonable with their wings.
Jeff flying everything. He was essentially Captain Picard and the Tracy boys were just the stock background officers.
Alan is in high school on the mainland somewhere. How was that set up? Why is it interesting? I'm saying this from experience, high school isn't interesting enough for a Thunderbirds movie.
Score overall. Sorry, other than the intro, it was just "I'M GONNA PRETEND TO BE DANNY ELFMAN COVERING BARRY GRAY MUSIC XDDDDD."
I really don't like the way they redid Firefly. Something about it really doesn't look right. Maybe it's because it is no longer a bulldozer and has an open turret for fire fighting?!
also, how did the hood hit thunderbird 5??
Yeah, that's something else the movie never really explained.
Gordon & Alan are piloting the wrong thunderbirds. I know it would make less sense if Alan had to pilot Thunderbird 3 at the end of the movie, but it's still not how it is was in the original series (or any series for that moment). If the director can't get the basic material right, how did they accept the movie to be anything than a C at best?
Also thunderbird 1 and 2 wouldn’t have the range to fly all the way to London also the way that thunderbird 2 is designed makes it very inefficient in flight . Also the airspace in London is very congested ( due to London Heathrow and London city approach paths ) Alan , Fermat and tin-tin should have contacted London Heathrow air traffic control during the approach into London . Also building a monorail open over deep water is a very stupid thing to do also due to the supports ships wouldn’t be able to pass through it . Overall this movie lacked a lot of logic
Jesus this makes me feel old
The problem with this movie was that the studio execs seemed to think kids want some kind of "wish-fulfilment fantasy", rather than seeing their heroes and the equipment come to life. So we end up with a lacklustre plot where a bunch of margarine-faced Hollywood kids "with issues" save the day because the 'heroes' are stupid enough to get sidelined by a plot contrivance.
Gerry Anderson knew kids loved the technology and watched it for the feeling that - as fantastic as the vehicles were - the way they worked had been thought out. He'd learned the hard way, with Joe 90, that putting a child hero centre-stage didn't chime with much of the viewing audience (who wants to be a 9 year-old hero when you're 10?). It's a pity the people behind this version didn't have the same understanding of their audience.
I loved this movie so much Id scrath the CDs part 1&2, cant believe itdbe replace with hard drives, nostalgia
Great effects for 2004
The less that is said about this movie the better.
Frakes managed to pull off the impossible with this movie. He took a great TV program, with imaginative story likes, and make a movie out of it, which was the biggest pile of crap possible. The only directing he should have been allowed to do after making this film was showing people to their seats in the cinema.
Didn't help he had a crap script to work from.
Growing up as a child in the sixties I watched Fireball XL-5 (had one,) Stingray (had that also) and The Thunderbird's (had 2 & 3.) I found the live action done well. Jonathan Frakes who is married to Genie Francis (Laura in General Hospital) did a good job. Just like Battlestar Galactica in the original the arrive in 1980. The remake it's 150,000 years ago. As with any remake they are going to change a few things which if done well and they pull it off I'm open too. Everyone has different tastes, but love all the complainers with their uneducated comments. Most of you didn't grow up with the Original. Gerry & Sylvia Anderson also did Captain Scarlet, UFO, Space 1999 and a move called Journey to the Far Side of the Sun.
LOVE IT!❤️ Brains isn't balding though...🤔 Penelope had a thing for young Allen that was cute but this makes her look like a cradle robber in retrospect 😱

Thank you for these scenes - but I wish they had been done in chronological order (not numerical order), and I wish the scenes had been complete (not cut short).
+Dakkar Nemo Glad you enjoyed them! Unfortunately there is a limit to what I am allowed to post on CZcams and I had to cut out some of the faff from these scenes, hence the jumpiness. Trust me, this video includes every second of each Thunderbird launch, there's nothing missing! If you would like to see that though I strongly recommend watching the actual film my friend! ;)
Oxtail Chamberpot - I have been trying to create so videos for CZcams, but when I try to Monetize them I get suspended by AdSense if there is even 1 photo or song anywhere in the video which was not created personally by me. I've never understood how some people are able to put photos, songs, and even scenes from a movie into a video and get away with it - are you monetized?
+Dakkar Nemo Sorry for the late reply bud. Yes that sounds about right - I'm not monetised either. Unfortunately you're not allowed to make money from anything created by other people, so anything at all you don't hold the rights to will stop CZcams allowing monetisation (and monestise it for the benefit of the rights holders instead). I get away with it by heavily editing scenes so they're very different to how they first appeared, only using very short chunks of footage and music, and also acknowledging the copyrighted content and not attempting to monetise it. Even so, I've had a couple of videos taken down as they had too much of a copyrighted scene in it, so it's pretty hit and miss to be honest. Hope that helps mate, best of luck with you videos!
Late to this party as I am, I'll throw in my tuppence-worth anyway. I saw the 2004 movie a few years back, and TBH the only reason I lasted more than 10 minutes was cos I was with mates and beer a rented DVD. All of us were (are) old enough to remember the original on the telly (SuperMarionation and all), and we all panned the movie... mercilessly. No doubt many younger folk enjoyed it, and I am not here to tell them their taste is rubbish - my hope is that they use this superficial recreation as a means to discover the original (and best) Gerry & Sylvia Anderson series.
The movie failed on many counts, as previous commenters have mentioned. For me its biggest failing is that it treated its audience as mere consumers of an entertainment product: there's a lot of action and excitement, but not to any great purpose. Conversely, the original series - in among all the excitement and action and drama and astonishing (laboriously-made) SFX - posed all sorts of problems and dilemmas, and treated its audience as intelligent beings. In many ways, Thunderbirds was a forerunner to the original Star Trek (which I also loved watching), a series that also assumed its audience capable of and willing to watch fiction as a means of exploring morals and the human condition.
F.A.B.
P.S. From a personal perspective, the worst technical cock-up of the movie was its version of T2 - it was rubbish. T2 has always been about multi-role capability and a primary part of its versatility was its ability to load and unload pods of varying technical specialities. The blokes in the production team of the 2004 movie should hang their heads in shame for what they did to T2.
Well said matey agreed on all accounts!
I was 10 at the time and seen episodes of the 60's one and thought they were much better.
@@taxus750 I would assume they can still load multiple vehicles it just doesn't do it in the same way The open sided cradle may be to save weight - though TB4 is perhaps one of the lighter cargos the vehicle might carry.
i wonder if there is any coincidence that the Vehicle transporting shuttle in the Frakes Directed Star Trek Insurrection is a similar shape to TB2?
4:07 The acting is even more woody than the puppets they are based on.
I watched this movie on the 22 of December.
Spare me the replies but i actually like the design for thunderbird 2 in this movie. They went for a more alien mothership design than a futuristic jet.
Thinking back, I think just running off with TB2 and selling to highest bidder would net them more money than the bank of London could store
Man...those launches were so awesome ^^
Don't care what anyone says about them
Real shame how this movie went so wrong. I personally thought the re-design of Tracy Island and the thunderbirds was really well done ( Particularly 1 and 3)
Scot= tb1
Virgil=tb2
Alan=tb3
Gordon=tb4
John=tb5
Slime Crew where as this seems to be Scott tb1, Jeff TB2 and Virgil as a co-pilot, Gordon tb3? Alan in tb4 I think and John in tb5. What were they thinking
kayo= thunderbird s
If only someone had told this to a member of the production team before they made this pile of absolute wank
原作はそうですね🎶（笑）
@@Thundernerd2aBird To be fair John and Gordon did swap places from time to time.
WOW ! Excellent ! What was there not to like !
Despite the bad press I grew up loving this movie as it still retains the premise of the original series and as some ripper scenes. For an eight year old it’s great.
I just cannot believe this movie has the same director as Star Trek: First Contact. Talk about starting at the top and working your way down.
Also these are some of my favourite TV or movie moments ever, from anything! Thunderbird 3 launch I think being my favourite! I just love everything about it! The soundtrack especially and just the action!
1:47 -1:48 that little ode to the original 1965's Thunderbirds is quite nice with the puppet hand
I remember seeing this when i was 8 and even then i thought it was very cheesey compared to the originals - which i used to watch on a Friday night right after Robot wars and before Top of the Pops and Captain Scarlet! Man those were the days
I watched it as a kid and somehow convinced myself it had no redeeming qualities.... upon looking back on it... it does have some amazing effects
I only remember the classic 60's Thunderbirds and I have totally forgotten of this newer early 2000s Thunderbirds... Maybe I couldn't remember this because it was crap
Never will be the same. I do prefer classic version.
Classic Series = Awesome
2004 Movie = Trash
Thunderbirds Are Go! 2015 = Not bad but fun
I was 5 when this movie came out I'm now 21 and I still love it
For the kids this movie is great. Like as a Kid I enjoyed this film so much. Doesn't look so good now but still
Interesting thing about TB3 launching and recovering through the split house, SpaceX has made this science fact.
Thunderbird 3 is my favourite.
Mine too.
THE THUNDERBIRDS -KNOW THE EARTH IS FLAT
Ruined thunderbirds. I would love to see a darker grittier version of Thunderbirds and Capt Scarlet.
Captain Scarlet live-action movie could be cool... if you hire the right people to do it that is.
Capitan scarlet was pretty dark already
