Episode Review: Whistles and Sneezes

 

Plot

 Henry, now having his new shape, tends to whistle loudly and happily. Gordon despises this, and lectures him about it. Henry's miserable after hearing this, but cheers up later when Gordon's whistle jams 'on', and he won't stop whistling. Next day, Henry experiences troubles of his own, when boys throw stones at him from a bridge, breaking his coaches' windows, and annoying him, his crew and the passengers. To teach them a lesson Henry "Sneezes" at the boys covering them in smoke ash. 

Review

 Gordon's coaches are all most falling off the tracks when he is going through the station. What did the boys have to do with Gordon? James should have had a line in the episode to, but he didn't.

  

I thought the episode was good there wasn't that much of a plot in this episode though.  If the  glass on the coaches is broken how can they keep the windows shut?

Over all I give this episode a 8/10 

2013 Special Titled " King of The Railway"

Soon after Blue Mountain Mystery, the 2013 movie is announced King of The Railway. The special comes out in fall 2013, and it is the first Thomas & Friends special written by Andrew Brenner.

The new books for the special are available for pre-order at amazon.com and at the Sodor Island Fansite amazon stores. There are six new books.

The description reads: Thomas the Tank Engine discovers mysteries of the past—and may even find a treasure!—when a stranger comes to the Island of Sodor.

This new movie sounds great and I wonder if they are still going to produce the 2014 World War 2 based Thomas & Friends movie at the end of 2013 or in 2014.

The six new books are titled: King Of The Railway: A Big Golden Book, King Of The Railway: A Little Golden Book, Treasure On The Tracks, The Secret Of The Mine, The Lost Crown Of Sodor and The Quest For The Golden Crown.

Episode Review: The Flying Kipper

 Plot

 Henry, now having new Welsh Coal and feeling better, is chosen to pull the 'Flying Kipper', a train of fish vans to deliver around Sodor. He's happy, and soon sets off for the snowy countryside in the early morning. He's having a good time, but some points that go to the main line are frozen to a siding and he misreads a signal that was supposed to say danger, but was pushed down by snow. 

 

 Review

There are no waves on the water at the docks in the first few docks scenes. There is a new CGI episode titled Henry's Happy Coal where he still needs special after Sir topham hatt said he won't need it anymore.

The bridge that Henry goes under is broken on the right hand side, the left if you are facing the other way. I didn't notice much shape change in Henry after at the end of the episode, but I guess there is some.

Over all I give this episode a 8/10

Episode Review: Henry's Special Coal

Plot

 Henry isn't feeling well because his firebox is too small, and he can't make enough steam. Sometimes he doesn't even have enough power to pull a train. The Fat Controller addresses the problem, and comes to a conclusion that Henry needs Welsh coal. 

Review

Henry goes in the siding by the station then pulls out and in the next scene he is back in the siding. Thomas' face looks strange at the end. 

It's funny that Sir topham hatt where's overalls, something other than his suite. Henry's steam looks strange at the station because it is coming only half way out of his wheels.

Over all I give this episode a 8/10

Episode Review: Percy Runs Away

  

 Plot

 Percy, the new engine, is working hard, and Gordon, James and Henry have been let out of the shed after promising to be good. Percy, Edward and Thomas go and play on Thomas' branch line. Edward then goes to the Quarry leaving Percy alone, He doesn't mind that a bit. However, he forgets Edward's warning about going on the main line, and is almost caught in a collision with Gordon and the Express. Frightened, Percy runs away, leaving it up to Gordon to find him. 

Review

Wow, the first time a tender engine is nice to a tank engine.  Percy put the trucks in the middle of no where on a siding in the country some where. 

I didn't remember that this was a season 1 episode, and how did Percy start with out a driver anyway? At the end of the episode Percy is still pulling Annie and Claribel.

Over all I give this episode a 8/10

Episode Review: Trouble in the Shed

Plot

 Gordon, James, and Henry are causing trouble for the Fat Controller. They're going on strike for being made to shunt, and refuse to work at all. The Fat Controller tells them off, and goes to get Edward so he can work in the yard again. But Edward can't manage alone, so he finds a new engine called Percy and shuts the big engines up. In the end, Thomas and Edward run the main line while Percy runs the branch line with Annie and Clarabel. 

Review

 I liked this episode and it is the first episode that Percy is seen in. It's funny that James and Henry didn't really say anything and Gordon did all the talking. 

Why would they get mad at Edward for doing there shunting because he is a tender engine. The angles of Sir topham hatt look funny when he is talking to the engines.

Over all I give this episode a 9/10

Episode Review: Tenders and Turntables

Plot

 Gordon, James, and Henry are upset that they have more work to do. Now that Thomas is gone, they have to shunt their own coaches. Because of always having to turn around to shunt, Gordon and James soon have trouble on the turntable. 

Review

Just by seeing the title scene I can tell that Henry is in a bad mood for this episode. I know I've watched this episode, but I don't remember seeing it. Sir topham hatt has a new cross face on him that I never saw before.

I noticed that Gordon's bad mood face changes in different scenes.  I wonder how they moved the turn table so fast, or made it look fast. James looked green in the face after spinning on the turn table.

Over all I give this episode a 10/10

Episode Review: Thomas and Bertie's Great Race

 Plot

 Thomas stops at a signal near the bus depot, and meets a bus named Bertie. Bertie reminds Thomas of the time he took his passengers after he got stuck in the snow and Terence came to pull him out, and Thomas gets jealous. He challenges Bertie to a race.

Review

It looks like there is a second Bertie at the bus depot, but there should be more than one bus at a but depot anyway. Bertie isn't going very fast for a race , I wonder how they moved those old model buses.

Why did Thomas whistle in the middle of nowhere?

Over all I give this episode a 9/10

Episosde Review: Thomas, Terence and the Snow

Plot

 Thomas meets Terence the Tractor, and soon says his wheels are ugly. Terence explains that they're caterpillar tracks, and he can go "anywhere", which comes in handy during the winter when Thomas doesn't use his snowplough... 

Review

 How can a little tractor like Terence haul a big tank engine like Thomas? This episode has it's own song called Don't Judge a Book By It's Cover. This episode was nice, but a little boring unlike some others.

Why did Berty need to take away the passengers? Thomas could have just taken them home, but I guess they were tired after diging in the snow.

Over all I give this episode a 10/10 
 

Episode Review: Thomas Goes Fishing

Plot

 Thomas loves his branch line. He wants to fish after seeing people fishing, but the other engines say engines don't fish. The next day Thomas needs a drink, but the water tower is out of order, so Thomas' crew decides to get water from the river. However, there's a consequence... 

Review

The camera wobbles a bit in one of the scenes when Thomas is going to the station. There is funny piano music when they are filling Thomas up with water at the river.

The Danger Keep Away signs are funny as if Thomas is really going to "Burst". When Sir Top ham Hatt was eating it looked like he was standing behind some kind of garbage can.

Sir top ham hatt should have said Thank You to Thomas for the fish at the end of the episode.

Over all I give this episode a 9/10

Episode Review: Thomas and the Conductor

 

 

Plot

  Thomas is very busy working on his branch line with Annie and Clarabel. But one morning Henry is late, and this makes Thomas cross. When Henry finally arrives, Thomas insults him, and hurries away. Because he is in such a rush, however, he leaves the guard behind. 

Review

I like the scene with the Windmill going across the country. I don't remember seeing this episode and I don't remember the part where Henry is late. I remember the part about the conductor being left behind from the book.

I think in the book that the conductor had a sandwich in one hand and his flag in the other, but I guess I didn't here the story right before. This is one of the episodes that was nicer.

Over all I give this episode a 10/10

Episode Review: Foolish Freight Cars

Plot

James is in big trouble with the Fat Controller. He has been confined to the shed for a long time, but is released to pull trucks. He works hard, and then takes a goods train up Gordon's Hill. The trucks misbehave, but James doesn't give up. 

Review

When Sir top ham hatt asked James if he would like to come out again it looked like the same scene form the last episode. 

At the end when Sir top ham hatt said "After that you deserve to keep your red coat", for some reason I just didn't remember that part of the episode.

 Over all I give this episode a 7/10

Episode Review: James Learns a Lesson

 Plot

 James, after having an accident on his first day, is now trying to be really useful. He does however cause trouble, when he wets the Fat Controller's new top hat with steam, and then bumps coaches so hard that one of their brakes fail.                                                

 Review

There should be a fence where the cow field is. At the end it showed Thomas' coaches that James was pulling. This is a big error in this episode. I saw Annie's face too. 

Sir top ham hatt should have told James that he would paint him black again like he was in the original books.

Over all I give this episode a 8/10

Episode Review: Thomas & The Breakdown Train

 

Plot

Shunting in the yards, Thomas comes across a strange train called "The Breakdown Train". When James, the red engine comes off the rails, Thomas quickly comes to the rescue with the Breakdown Train. The Fat Controller is so pleased with Thomas, he gives him his own branch line and two coaches as a reward. 

Review

I thought that James was black in the book and then they painted him red after the crash. I really like the music track on this episode and how the cars are piled up behind James is really funny.

When Thomas was pulling Annie and Claribel up the hill the camera was on an angle and then it went flat.I think this is one of the better episodes in season one and it is also the first ever crash in the Thomas T.V. show.

Over all I give this episode a 9/10

Episode Review: Trouble for Thomas

Plot

Thomas is fed up with shunting coaches in the yard, so Edward agrees to swap jobs the next day. However, Edward's train consists of trucks, which love to play tricks, especially on an engine not used to them, like Thomas. 

Review

It looks like Henry is still ill in this episode and I really don't like the old Truck faces. The new ones on the Tomy engines are way better that in the series.

It's strange that Sir top ham hatt doesn't have his little stand, but in stead he is standing on a pile of bricks with a ladder at the very end of the episode. It's also strange that they just start calling the tunnel Henry's tunnel right after the last episode.

Over all I give this episode a 7/10

Episode Review: A Big Day for Thomas

Plot

Thomas is getting bored with shunting, and wishes he could pull a train instead of merely collecting coaches. When Henry is ill, his chance comes—with disastrous results. 

Review

The camera is on an angle for the first seen for some reason. When Thomas and Henry are in the shed where are all of the other engine's? Doing night work I guess. It's odd that Thomas had to find the coach's, doesn't  Thomas run the yard and know where they are?

The face on Thomas when he went back to get the train looked more like he was in thought  than sad. It would have been nice if they put Gordon at the end of the episode too, like they did with James and Henry.

Over all I give this episode a 8/10 

Episode Review: Henry to the Rescue

  

 Plot

 Henry has been stuck in the tunnel for a long time now, and wishes he hadn't been so silly. But one day, Gordon goes too fast and bursts a safety valve. Edward is the only engine available, but he can't push the heavy train without Henry's help. 

Review

 Why is Sir top ham hatt's head always on an angle in the Express? Henry's smile look's like an upside down triangle. The part where the goat ate Sir top ham hatt's hat was silly because it happened again in a latter episode.  

I don't have any thing else to say about this episode, but I think that James should have been in it to make it more interesting.

Over all I give this episode a 7/10

Episode Review: Come Out, Henry!

Plot

 A green engine, named Henry, is afraid of the rain, thinking it will spoil his lovely green paint. One day, he runs into a tunnel and refuses to come out. After numerous attempts to move him, the Fat Controller decides to shut him in the tunnel. 

Review

This episode is over all just silly because can't Henry's driver just drive him out of the tunnel, well I guess if he did there wouldn't be any episode. The part where Sir top ham hatt said that his doctor forbid him to pull and push was very funny.

Why does Sir top ham hatt stand around in different spot's while they are building the wall, including Henry? The strange thing is that Henry can just drive out the back end of the tunnel unless Sir top ham hatt has put a wall on the other side too.

Over all I give this episode a 9/10

Episode Review: Edward Helps Out

 

Season 1, Episode 2

air date: September 9,1984
 written by: Rev. W. Awdry

Plot

Edward is an old engine, and has not been out working for a while. His crew feels sorry for him, and decide to use him one day. Not only that, but he helps Gordon the next day when he gets himself stuck on a hill.

Review

At the beginning Edward's buffer's have very small dotes in the middle and at night at the sheds Thomas & Henry's buffer's look dirty. While I'm talking about buffer's Gordon's buffers are dented up when he is at the top of the hill.

It's funny how at first Gordon's in a really bad mood boosting to Edward and then after he's in a good mood and Edward has done half the work. The check's in this episode are a lighter red then in Thomas & Gordon.

Over All I give this episode a 7/10

Episode Review: Thomas & Gordon

Season 1, Episode 1

  

air date: September 4, 1984

written by: Rev. W. Awdry

 Plot

 Thomas is a blue tank engine who works at a big station on the Island of Sodor, shunting coaches to their proper places. He enjoys teasing the other engines, especially Gordon, the biggest and proudest engine. When his teasing goes too far, Gordon decides to teach him a lesson. 

 

 Review 

This is my first episode review from the old model series, so let's start. I really liked the tired out faces on both Thomas and Gordon, but the checks where a little to puffed out.

The cart that the worker was holding at the plat form looked like the same one in A Scarf for Percy. The turn table was a little slow, but I guess they are slow.

Why wasn't Gordon tired pulling the train when he stayed up and Thomas was too tired to shunt after a long night's sleep? That part of the episode was strange.

 I give this episode a 8/10

ThomasWoodenRailway Uploaded Hero's Origins

You Tuber ThomasWoodenRailway has uploaded his half hour movie titled Hero's Origins. The movie is all about how Sirtophamhatt bought the railway and how Hero got lost and forgotten about.

There is one other seen at the very end which is from Hero of the Rails the movie, when Thomas finds hero.
I thought the movie was good, but there was to much talking at the beginning.

October 2012 Blog Update

I haven't blogged in a while, so here is the October 2012 update. First of all I might be making some audio reviews on my You Tuber channel now called ThomasDVDGuy2.

But other than that no other plans have been made so far. The blog has been updated with Google's new dynamic blog look so there won't be much on the side bar until blogger updates it with more feathers.

I've learned HTML5 and most of CSS3 so my official website should be up some time in spring or mid summer of 2013. I might do episode reviews of every season and movie, like I said I would do before.

My You Tube channel have been updated with different feathered channels. The reason I've changed it a little is because the You Tuber ThomasWoodenAVI had very bad words on his channel icon so I took him off.

Another channel I added is TheAlexJonesChannel. Alex Jones is really cool so check by clicking this link.

That's all for now and hopefully there will be more post's out latter on this most.
