I Can't Believe This Movie Was Made

The Thunderbirds, that loved 1960s TV Sci-Fi show that featured animatronics, models and PUPPETS for the characters. The Characters and story lines may not have been anything special, but we all remembered and loved the show BECAUSE OF THOSE PUPPETS. So yes, I think we all scratched our heads and said WTF when someone chose to do a big screen version for the 2000's with actual real people instead of PUPPETS. Thats right, without those puppets that were the very reason people used to watch the show. I am still to this day trying to figure out how anyone could have thought anyone would want to watch this.
