In praise of the Thunderbirds movie
(01/09/03)

Dear Sci-fi Online

Thank God Heather Simpson has raised an issue which hasn't been mentioned before regards the new Thunderbirds movie in her editorial this month. It's all well and good Gerry Anderson claiming the film will be poor, but then again it was his wife, Sylvia, that was the creative talent behind his hits.

Also, I was impressed that she stood out amongst your staff and spoke her mind. A very brave women indeed. Thunderbirds movie gossip is all too easy to come by these days and most of it is just rumour. Therefore, to judge a movie before anything has really been filmed is ludicrous.

I am looking forward to seeing the Thunderbirds movie as I'm sure Working Title will do a good job. And for goodness sake, when all's said and done, it's only a kids movie
