If you don't get the game codes, you'll never make it through the "money changer" level.

camacazio On an unrelated note, I still don't get why idiots like to end their bad internet jokes with elipses.

NeutralLoser Never know, what I heard could have been wrong. I chose not to see it.

On any account...I can't wait for the fruit snacks either :D Or the countless Lays and Pepsi promotions...

Guitar Woman The only movie I've ever seen based on an old tv show that didnt suck was Starsky And Hutch. But only because Snoop Dog(g?) was Huggy Bear.

I also saw one episode of Thunderbirds where this building was on fire and some old lady who was made of plastic started melting :D

NeutralLoser Cama...What are you talking about? The Passion wasn't a travesty of an old series o.o;;

The Passion was said to be the most accurate telling of that 'story' by far. I'm not hella-fire and brimstone-religious, so I didn't bother seeing the movie, but from what I've heard it is the most accurate telling of that 'story'.

On any account o.o;; True! They were marionettes.

Mat stone and Trey parker are making a movie withe puppets like from the old thunderbirds shows.

camacazio I think it'll be awesome. I'm playing my NES game in preparation for when I see it. When you consider all the trashy movies made in the last 4 years, this doesn't even compare to some bad ones like The Passion or whatever else I didn't see because it was obviously bad.
Aug 1st, 2004 10:36 AM
Alive And calling them Marionettes, also wouldnt hurt i allways liked the thunderbirds when i could catch them in re-runs, but yes this new movie is a travesty of the old show, ridiculous is more to the point...

NeutralLoser All too true. And maybe next time I won't forget about the movie forum?

:D

Spectre X Movie forum.

Also, well done Captain Obvious.

I think that a live-action Thunderbirds movie could actually work out really well. However, not likeit is now.

I DO, however, hope that they make a Captain Scarlet movie, because there are considerably less ways how they can screw that up.

NeutralLoser I know. It's like that, isn't it! o.o

Thunderbirds...Ugh.

When it comes down to it...I really think that all these movies based on sitcoms/old shows are the worst thing to happen since the invention of schools with metal detectors. I was sitting down on my couch, lazy fucker that I am, and I saw the Thunderbirds commercial.

I was instantly upset...I felt like puking. Thunderbirds, as many of you may or may not know, was actually a series made entirely with PUPPETS. That's right, friends. Puppets.

Now, I know many of you will whine that the puppets, compared to the special effects of the new Thunderbirds, would actually pale in such a fight. I say bullshit. What they've done is made Thunderbirds into a coming of age story about a teenager. Abso-fucking-lutely ridiculous. Alan Tracy was a college student in the series, and even the pilot of some sleek, phallic vehicle.

So, I'm naturally pissed off about this. How can you even think of replacing puppets, so capable and kind...With inept and line-forgetting human beings?

At least the puppets don't have outtakes!!
