New REAL Thomas Movie: "The Great Discovery"

[Beatle (TrainBrain)]

Well, it may be old news to some, but it's new to me! A new DVD special entitled "The Great Discovery" is set to be released in Fall 2008.

*>POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD<* Note: quote contians no big spoilers, just gives away main focus of plot line. a prelude, if you will . Highlight to read (click and drag mouse from top left to bottom right):

Following the enormous success of Calling All Engines, Thomas's forthcoming feature length special sees Thomas puff into new and uncharted territory in his biggest adventure yet. When Thomas discovers a forgotten town high in the mountains, he's placed in charge of restorations in time for Sodor's own annual festival "Sodor Day". This means a lot of work for Thomas and friends, so a new engine comes to the island to help out. Stanley is a tank engine who turns out to be just like Thomas except a bit bigger, a bit stronger and, in Thomas's eyes, a bit more popular! When Thomas feels his position as Sodor's #1 engine is under threat, he decides to play a trick on Stanley to make him look silly. The plan backfires and soon Thomas finds himself alone on a dramatic, action-packed adventure that takes him far away from the Sodor Day preparations. When he realises that Thomas has disappeared, Sir Topham Hatt orders the biggest search ever on the Island of Sodor. When Thomas is eventually found by Stanley, the two engines find they make a great team and become firm friends. Thomas meets Indiana Jones in this all action spectacular!

The movie will be narrated by Pierce Brosnan, who had this to say about his new job with HIT:

"One of my fondest memories as a father was sharing the stories of Thomas the Tank Engine and watching the series with my children when they were young. I am thrilled by the opportunity to be the Narrator for this beloved series, following in the shoes of so many famous names, and helping introduce Thomas & Friends to many more generations of children."

See, even 007 liked Thomas!

[Beatle (TrainBrain)]

I could tell you, but it may be a "spoiler", I believe it's mentioned in the "spoiler" quote:

Stanley is a tank engine who turns out to be just like Thomas except a bit bigger, a bit stronger and, in Thomas's eyes, a bit more popular!
