This captures the spirit of Thomas better than the current trash, All Engines Go.

The fact you got the actual Mark Moraghan to narrate this, makes this parody so fun. Having the actual actor to do it is so much better than using AI voices. Huge credit to you for that. This is the best parody I've ever seen. This is so much fun to watch, the animation, the narration, the music. It's amazing! This is awesome, great work!

Thank you! 😊

[@MattyHarris]

@@HatLovingGamer You're welcome!

I mean, he's no Ringo Starr or the late George Carlin, but I'm still equally impressed you got one of the actual narrators to do this

[@Apophis324]

Not knowing a lot about GTA, this still is far funnier than it has to be ^ -^

[@harshvardhangodara5852]

I'm being brutally honest, this video has resparked my interest to watch Thomas and Friends again after so many years

[@user-zb7ke5jw9k]

The scene when everyone began to fire their weapons is hilarious

''bang bang!, takatakatakatakataka, bang bang bang!'' was the most beautiful sentence ive ever heard

[@charmyzard]

I need this to be a series. Childhood upgraded with the charm of the original.

[@abhisheksengupta4866]

Epic nostalgia overload.

As someone who used to be a MASSIVE Thomas and Friends fan, I can say the aesthetic was very faithfully styled! 👍

[@tre-engines]

This is excellent! Obviously the people who made this video understands what Thomas is about! (Also it’s really cool they were able to get Mark Moraghan to narrate this!)
