Live action Thunderbirds?!

[vf-xx]

Anybody else seen previews for the live action Thunderbirds movie?

I can't decide if the principle is a good thing, or if it's stretching something cheezy too far.

I saw it,
All I could think about was the old figurines that tech TV had on. I'm def. going to stay away from this movie!

Saw it tonight (Preview). If you go see this movie and are over the age of 12, you need some of this:

the puppet version of that show is a solid kick to the groin. i cant imagine how horrible this movie will be. looks as if number 1 cranked out a big pile of number 2.

Its directed by Jonathan Frakes (Lieutenant Riker on Star Trek).

He's publically said he's making a kids movie. Its one of those movies to bring your kids to and thats pretty much it.

The preview gives that one away pretty quick, so there really shouldn't be any doubt

I haven't seen it yet, but I do have a question. Does the live action version have strings?

[FooTemps]

If the live action version had strings, then it would be geared to a more mature audience that would appreciet puppets and spaceships on sticks/strings

Ah, memories...
