Be sure to check out 22Tesla's spooktacular adaptation of the Jack & the Pack episode "Scaredy, Scaredy" where instead the One-Eyed Lorry has an actual backstory, the ending is more enjoyable and no forced Thomas & Percy appearances: www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlMM...

There's also some bizarre scrapped bits in the original script:

Duke in Rheneas' place when the Boulder was about to hit him, and the latter was in Percy's place near the end. Thumper also dies and Boulder was originally gonna speak.

Just like David Menkin as Jack, I also find Kevin's US voice by Kerry Shale underrated. Like, I always find some old-school users like MOAB and Dalek44 claiming he sounds like Jerry Lewis, but it matches his young and clumsy persona and unlike Henry - the higher voice fits him more than the latter.

For S4 of GSE, I will be finally adapting another cancelled Jack & the Pack episode "The Importance of Being Patrick" - though as a flashback episode told from Patrick's POV (rather than a narrator) telling it to another character - and the fat Mayor will be a previous mayor.

If a few Thomas movies are actually made as multi-episodes as a mini-series, I'd say The Great Race should've been it. Like, the concept and potential is a great premise, only for the way it was written and presented not so good. Episode count-wise, I'd say 12 eps to flow the story better.

Been listening to one music theme from Hamtaro's Japanese OST - mostly played the one of 25:31 which is the sad theme - and I picture this scene playing over the campfire scene in Magic Railroad during Mr. C. and Lily's extended conversation.

I'm not really a fan of this take on 98462 TBH (the name Alfred is really meant for an AU darker series originally) - especially since now as time goes on, he and 87546 aren't really given a specific basis (and there are plenty of other headcanons and takes on both of them).

It is the American Way!

Considering the fact Bigg City Port is set in a 1920s Americana - even if this is filmed and created in the UK.

So they are working around different ideas for a Thomas live-action movie, and this one about an Autistic boy going to the Island of Sodor - on one hand, it's a great idea especially since Thomas is associated with many fans on the spectrum, though it sounds identical to a certain 2000 film.

So I once idealized Susan Roman as Mavis - though I think she can work w/ any other actress besides her. Then I saw a voice clip of Blazing Dragons that featured her as Princess Flame w/ a British accent and I thought she would sound marvelous for Mavis - that voice reminded me a lot of

So remember that artwork where I drew Laura & Friends as Hamans based on The Mystery of Snoozer? Well, as much as I liked that fanfic, the only thing I wish was included in their Ham-Ham forms was the hairstyles (cause being hamans, they should have some

Remember that outdated drawing of Hillary (Sandy's Owner) from last time? Well, here's the brand new updated drawing of her. Her hair, clothing and face came out splendidly, though the ribbon is the trickiest part to work around with.

Eddie Glen's British accent works for Thomas or Percy, but he also uses it for other productions prior like Prince & the Pauper from GoodTimes or Blazing Dragons.

So which other Thomas characters do you think Eddie would fit w/ that same dialect other than the two little engines?

So when The Magic School Bus reboot first came out, I was so baffled by it I didn't dare myself to watch it (because as a die-hearted fan of the original, this one didn't feel right cause I think the animation is what threw me off). I had read a little bit that Lily Tomlin was still Ms. Frizzle

Seeing those two characters makes me wonder if we could have a rivalry episode or movie moment between Diesel 10 and Cranky - like maybe Cranky could defend the engines or drop stuff on Diesel 10 in Magic RR (the original storyboard implies he was going to drop oil all over him).

If you're wondering in terms of actors I'd imagine for the characters for this alternate US dub, well here's the list (ignoring the bad formulaic writing and more on the voices). And this may include a few of the bad characters too, but here goes nothing (even I admit, this'll be strange)

ANOTHER RANDOM THOUGHT IDEA:

What if...the early CGI Series' US dub of Thomas & Friends was recorded in Vancouver, Canada than in the UK (basically where Nitrogen Studios was doing the animation (I can imagine Scott McNeil, Paul Dobson, Kelly Sheridan, Chantel Strand, etc. as part of the VA cast).

At least we get to hear Michael Angelis' James voice in that scene.

And I think Keith Scott is doing a bit of temp VO for Mr. C.
