It updated the basic concept while still being respectful towards it, but at the same time not being afraid to do its own thing.

There are many words to describe Zimmer's score.... 'Amazing' is not one of them I happened to hear Classic FM at the movies, less than a week after I'd taken my 10-year-old to see it they actually played some of the soundtrack on the programme. I didn't recognise the music. A more accurate description of the score would be 'lacklustre' and 'derivative'; even the main titles, using a severely mutilated version of Barry Gray's original theme were dire. This would have far more inspiring: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4KwdWxqgt1lbKssi=rrO30U6OcRAJGw3t

In the first episode of the Gerry Anderson Podcast, Gerry's son Jamie interviewed Sophia Myles in a restaurant and she was very honest about what the production period was like as well as the aftermath of when the film was released. Apparently, a lot of the dialogue between her and Parker was written by Richard Curtis which explains why they are the best characters in the film. The other big actresses who auditioned for Lady Penelope in this film were Sienna Miller, Rosamund Pike (who later voiced her in the 2015 remake!) and I think Kate Winslet was also considered.

I can’t deny the films many flaws but I think it is no way near as terrible as a lot of people make it out to be. I was a huge Thunderbirds fan as a kid and watched the show on TV every weekend - even was lucky enough to get the infamous Tracy Island set for Christmas. The real problem with the film was the writing, especially that of the new characters. Mullion, Transom and Fermat have moments that are just plain cringe-worthy and a lot of fight scenes are so awkward with poor choreography and stupidly misplaced Looney Tune sound effects. However, the film was a brilliant experience in the cinema for the sheer spectacle of the Thunderbird vehicles and the production design. We're all desensitised to this sort of thing now but back in 2004 the CGI looked incredible. I'm still impressed by the shot of Thunderbird 3 launching and the detail of the reflections you can see on the body of the craft. The appeal of Thunderbirds for many children wasn't really the characters but instead the technology and seeing how it would be used to rescue people from seemingly impossible situations - which this film succeeded on. The oil-rig scene and the missile impact on Thunderbird 5 feel quite visceral. I loved it so much as a kid I actually watched it twice in the cinema, which I rarely ever did. Sure there are things that were changed from the show (the costumes, the design of Thunderbird 4 etc.) but you have to remember that THIS IS A PREQUEL. Even as a child me and my schoolmates knew this as it isn't until the end of the film that Alan Tracy becomes an official Thunderbird pilot. Because of that, in our collective head-cannons we thought all the inconsistencies would be resolved in the time-frame between the film's story and TV show. Also Ben Kingsley was perfectly cast as The Hood who despite his delightfully hammy moments could be very intimidating “open the door Alan!” Saying that the only thing I hated as a child was the actor who played Brains who seemed completely miscast and seemed to be doing a bad Jarvis Cocker impersonation. Even if people debate the worth of the film there is no denying that the soundtrack is a banger. FUN FACT: Part of the reason Parker and Lady Penelope are so great in this movie is because the actors gave their scenes to Richard Curtis to rewrite them uncredited - making a third connection to Doctor Who as he wrote 'Vincent and the Doctor'.

Saw this is a cinema with my dad after getting free tickets for him test driving a Ford with me in the back, because hey did ya notice Ford was involved?

Also I'm pretty sure Brains in the show was pretty close in age to Alan & Tintin so it's extra weird they split him into older him and his mini-me. Kyrano was also the Hood's half-brother just to be extra contrived in the show and that sometimes let the Hood mind control him remotely I think?

As a lifelong Thunderbirds fan, great video, and I agree, completely with every point made. There is an interesting fact about the production however, that doesn’t get raised very often, if at all. The actress Naomie Harris, (28 Days Later, Miss Moneypenny in the Daniel Craig Bond films) was originally going to play the reporter that follows International Rescue around the world reporting on their activities. There are several interviews from around 2003-04 where she confirms this. However, as we saw in the video, there is a blonde lady playing the reporter who is in fact Genie Francis, the wife of director Jonathan Frakes. Why this change was made has never been revealed, but I think it is likely Ms Francis was drafted in due to reshoots and the Ford product placement. It remains a curiosity, nonetheless.

I remember liking this movie at the time, but now it's at unwatchable levels of cringe. It was interesting how 2004 had two films about kids on a hidden base island rescuing their parents from a supervillain (Thunderbirds and The Incredibles). The Incredibles definitely holds up better. Still, I do love the OG Thunderbirds, and I think the 2015 reboot did a really good job keeping what made the original series so unique, and modernizing other aspects for a new generation. Would love to hear your thoughts on the reboot series.

I was so excited to see Jonathan Frakes was directing, I liked him as Will Riker in TNG, and his directing efforts on TV and for First Contact were all outstanding. Then I was happy to hear that the TB machines would be faithful to the originals. Sadly, everything else was ditched. FAB 1 became a Ford, Alan became a petulant teenager, and the Hood became a joke. Jeff was no longer desk bound, meaning the entire IR team was off world. Except for Lady Penelope and Parker, the saving graces of the film! Back in the 60's I was lucky enough to see the full size Rolls when it was transported to my town for a garage opening!

Has stuck with me as a simple way to do a back and forth reveal, but most of it is just the 'live action' problem like Dragonball. Insert typical attractive disney teen into what is effectively a dress-up party for all actors involved. I legitimately still enjoy this movie (in spirit, i actually havent rewatched it, but i mean i like thin arc of tin-tin holding back her heritage and i can see how/why they wanted to adapt The Hood's voodoo think towards Kyrano and give it a more practical story use), but yeah its a hollow cash grab.

have to say, thats pretty cool. You are not the only one, I imagined I was some sort of mechanic in the hangers etc.

I haven't watched this movie, and I'm not saying it's good, but I dislike how a lot of the criticisms is just "It's detached from the original show". Something being different from the unique original source doesn't necessarily mean it's generic, it can be unique in a different way. Like How to Train Your Dragon book and movie. Or Shrek.

How to train your dragon is a perfect example. Great film and great books despite being very different. But yeah I haven't watched this since I was a kid but I'm not surprised to hear it doesn't hold up

okay, anything underwater with bubbles - i worked on that. anything with afterburner jets - i worked on that. anything with chaff in weightlessness - i worked on that. i had a smoke and a chat with mr frakes on more than one occasion while this was being made - it's bad in places but it's quite good in places too. luckily i had no part of the storyline.

Because the script was Spy Kids. It wasn’t Thunderbirds.
