	Saw the trailer at Harry Potter the other night. Looks sweet.... I remember being freaked out by the original TV version.... Twins look a little older than the original. Mind you, who would watch a movie about a couple of 10 year olds going on "adventures" with an old man in walk-shorts, socks and roman sandals in this day and age..... -----signature----- Liam, the shades. Good job. May contain traces of nuts.

	yeah, looks good, although it also looks a lot like the original TV series in terms of production design. Speaking of related things, "Children of the Dog Star" has just come out on DVD. Vanessa and I watched it in one sitting a few weeks ago. It's aged remarkably well.

	They're both quite cheap at JB Hi-Fi - about $17 each, as I recall. The actual transfer of "Under The Mountain" looks quite poor - most likely off a second generation source (it's perfectly watchable, but looks more like a VHS copy). "Children of the Dog Star" looks fantastic.

	Don't remember the original cause I'm to young... Not really sure if this new movie interests me either. Worth paying the price to go see it at the movies? I think I might just wait for the DVD... -----signature----- http://www.alldayshow.com check it out xD AHBY

	NZ Herald posted: Under the Mountain won favour with some critics. The children's thriller was praised for its "enchanting use of Auckland's startling landscape". But some reviews suggest the themes of the original story do not transfer to the big screen. The Variety review says the film, directed by Black Sheep's Jonathan King, "manages to invoke nearly every genre cliche ever formulated by the lazy mind of man. The plot and basic concept behind the film defy comprehension, and one suspects that both were infinitely clearer in the novel." -----signature----- Thunder only happens when its raining Players only love you when they're playing Say women, they will come and they will go When the rain washes you clean you'll know

	This looks fairly tame compared to some of the other films available. Is Sam Neill the producer on this project? -----signature----- Hey, what are you trying to pull here... (CLICK) pull here... (CLICK) pull here...

	It's based on a kid's book (well, probably aimed at 10-16 year olds). Great novel, and I'd guess the film is targetting a similar age group. -----signature----- Thunder only happens when its raining Players only love you when they're playing Say women, they will come and they will go When the rain washes you clean you'll know
