Talk:Thunderbirds (2004 film)

message: Removed this line because it seems superfluous and... crappy.
There is extensive use of computer-generated imagery to create the illusion that the Thunderbirds, the fantastic machines which give the name to the production, are real. --76.104.205.73 08:10, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

message: There's a see also link to Team America at the bottom of this page. Not sure why it should be there without a single piece of explanation. I personally equate the two because Team America came out around the same time and Team America featured the marionette stuff we all remember from old school Thunderbirds.

replies: text: Presumably because the 'Team America' guys reportedly wanted to make a Thunderbirds movie with puppets, but couldn't get the rights because this version was in pre-production? Mark Grant 02:26, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

message: After reading all the critisims of the move, including that Alan is already a Thinderbird in the original and that The Hood already is a villian and knows about the Thunderbirds in the original. It seems that is is most likely the updated movie is a prequel to the original series. Can anybody verify this? 70.108.48.238 01:16, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  refer to geographical mistake

message: In the reception section (discussing how the film was received) there is a line saying it had a "mixed fanbase", presumably meaning about half of viewers or critics liked it and the other half disliked it. However, almost everything written after that statement relates to negative reception: very poor box office result relative to budget ($28 million box office vs. $57 million-ish budget), awful Rotten Tomatoes rating, awful Yahoo! moves rating (C+), bad reviews by critics, negative response even from the built-in fanbase from the original series. Given the poor box office performance and the slew of indicators of negative critical reception by professional reviewers and fans alike, what can possibly justify this "mixed fanbase" statement? I think it is obvious that the reception was overwhelmingly negative and there was not, in any meaningful sense, a "mixed fanbase." 
In short, I think someone should remove the "mixed fanbase" statement. It is not true.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.97.243.208 (talk) 00:48, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
