I love editing. I always seem to enjoy it more than I should. I suppose it makes me feel intelligent.
I just added and edited the full page for 2004 Thunderbirds (GBA), you know, the mediocre game about the hated 2004 film from Universal? Universal, that makes sense that Vivendi Universal was the developer.
The game's not as bad as the movie is hated. The game's OK. Some good level design, some bad design. I've been a Thunderbirds fan for 11 years now, so I still find myself playing it, even though I'd give it 2.5 stars. Thankfully I found YT vids that allowed me to provide sources for the gameplay.
On a personal level, I didn't rate the film for being kind of a poor representation of the show. I though the redesigns for the vehicles were great, and Bill Paxton was a perfect choice for Jeff. Bill's a personal favorite. And I can get passed the "it's a kid's movie, so let's make it about kids" aspect. But Ben Kingsley didn't show his real talent when he could've played an awesome Hood, the minions were stupid, and Bill Paxton stole all the scenes he was in. Plus, the Hood stuck to a generic bad-guy plan. For a movie, the plan should've been more complex. And the movie focused more on the island than the machines, which were hardly an element.
I give both the film and the game 5/10.
