1:22 Defending Hit, Hit is a big corperation so how about them standing up for themseleves instead of people defending Hit, after all Hit is sapose to be big.

The only problem that I have here is that you kinda act like that it should just be ignored and nitpick the video when a problem comes up. Dude, it's kinda obnoxious, even for something made by a rabid fanbase. I always hated the CGI, but I'm not gonna whine. The real problem here, is that HiT loves the copyright and hovers over Thomas like a hawk. Making YTPs are a pain in the ass.

With that said and done, I think Thomas was killed, but I'm not going to make myself into the idiot foamer.

[super58173]

While I gotta agree with you, it still was a kick in the balls to have one of your childhood shows numbified. The reputaition of Thomas fans would have been better if the CGI hate hadn't made the stereotype that everyone hates the CGI. I like computer animation, but like most kids shows of today, effort seems to be lacking, in storyline, and in models.

Thomas isn't the only one. Transformers. THAT was awsome. Then they made it for 5 year olds. Many others were dolled up.

i always thought of thomas the tank engine as a scary ass kids show

[NickInfante92]

Season 16 will most likely air in 2013 and will feature the return of the classic Skarloey Railway engines! Duck, Donald, Douglas, and Oliver will only be made in CGI when they are needed And most of the original Thomas models are being stored in Southampton, England.

[CynthiaShirona149]

@NickInfante92 Actually, it's going to be aired in autumn 2011, and will introduce the return of the little engines, but not Duck i'm sorry to say!

[LeonSKennedy828]

Also, you go on and on about how HiT are making it marketable for children...the older episodes were as well, except the characters were somewhat believable, as were the stories, yet they were still kid friendly, so what was your point there?

[LeonSKennedy828]

How is complaining about HiT making the show babyish and overly politically correct making anyone look bad? Modern day Thomas sugar coats everything, it doesn't prepare kids for the types of people they may actually meet like it used to, you will not find such a nice goody two shoes as Thomas (modern) anywhere in reality and to make kids think that they will is bullshit.

Sorry, it's just how I feel.

i think the models should go to the california RR museum in sacremento so I could see them

[coasterfreak14]

@GregoryThomasFan You know what? You're not worth my time...

[coasterfreak14]

@GregoryThomasFan What parts do you not agree with?

[ThomasRules8391]

Some of the models are permanently displayed in Thomas Land (UK).

[Shadowcat0161]

@ThomasRules8391 Really?

[ThomasRules8391]

@Shadowcat0161 Yes, I watched some videos about them. Some of the models are preserved in Thomas Land in Drayton Manor, UK.

[coasterfreak14]

@ThomasRules8391 Well, it's nice to know that the old models are preserved! Maybe I can check it out if I even go to the UK.

[ThomasRules8391]

You know, if I were making a children's series, I wouldn't make it too childish.

[ThomasRules8391]

I still like Thomas today, but I still wish that HiT never made it so childish!

[SoundwaveSkywarp]

I would call this an HDG to more of the franchise than the series
