... What a rubbish film!
Thunderbirds.

I bought it the other day in Morrisons for £5.99, wonder if I can get my money back??
It's more like the trailers for 'Spy-Kids'

The only thing to say is that the director, Johnathon Frakes (Will Ryker in 'Star-Trek; Next Generation'), stuck the original corny plots that Gerry Anderson used.
Robbing banks??, even Dr Evil (in the shambolic 'Austin Powers' series) had better ideas :evil:

FAB 1 (http://forums.mud-club.com/viewtopic.php?t=695)

Good points;
Surprisingly there were some.
All credit to the vehicle designers, FAB 1 looks good & does actually drive, do you remember James May driving it on 'Top Gear', out on the streets :shock:  :lol:
There was also a pink Ka (http://community.webshots.com/photo/344259581/1431226634047309372vXwkzB) & a Ford Thunderbird in front of Lady P's house


Sophie Myles as Lady Penelope. What a perfect English Rose :D
She was one of the 'Saucy Wood Nymphs' in Ritchies dreams (after Eddie hit him?) in 'Guest House Paradiso'

Ron Cook (Parker) was simply inspired casting, does anyone remember him as Isambard Kingdom Brunel in the BBC series;'Seven Wonders OfThe Industrial World' in 'The Great Ship' episode

Sadly the film was nothing like the orginal scritps, it took about ten years and endless rewrites/rejections to get where it is today. :cry:
