    It’s also worth noting, how vague TFC’s line “Ryan told me everything” is. It could not only mean about how Thomas worked hard to prevent Sailor John from stealing the treasure, but also explaining how he tried to prevent an accident he caused with the dynamite.

      If only people in the fandom aren't so annoyingly stubborn to figure that through their head or get a reality check because I'm so sick of people kicking on something that's obviously a dead horse at this point. "tHoMaS gEtTiNg pUnIsHeD tHrEe tImEs iN tHe SaMe mOvIe iZ nAt fAiR!!11!!1 aLl tHrEe oF tHoZe tHiNgZ aRe bEyAnD TaMiZ'es KaNTrOl!!1!" It's like these people are so blind and oblivious, it looks to me that they either assumed otherwise without watching the movie or even reconsidered their thoughts. I was wrong to believe the third incident wasn't entirely Thomas' fault because I should have remembered about that line where Thomas apologizes to Ryan about the dynamite incident. That's like saying Topham bricking Henry up in the tunnel is unjustified, even though the reason for it was because Henry was being selfish about his appearance, not because he did nothing to deserve getting walled up.
      I find it really ironic or even hypocritical (or a complete double standard) how people in the fandom refuse to believe in any of those dipshit journalists that make up those false claims on "The Sad Story of Henry" for clickbait sake, yet they act like them whenever The Fat Controller told Thomas off on all three incidents that Thomas not only did to himself because of his arrogance and lack of honesty, but because he put the first incident onto Gordon as well. This needs to stop for all I care. Railway Sparrow made his point clear already and no one else has ever heard of a reality check.

    One thing I love that the fandom did was the Trainz site Sodor Workshops, which has a downloadable freeware model of a what-if Geoffrey, which is based on Thomas's description of Geoffrey. Honestly, if the fandom can do that, I can't believe all of those who complain or nitpick about Sir Topham and Thomas's attitude haven't just fixed their satisfactions by creating their own version of a prequel of SLOTLT

      Me personally, I want a lost treasure prequel to be the episode Goodbye, Fat Controller, The 2nd last episode of season 19.
      See, in my version of the *entire* CGI series (Yes, I want to rewrite the whole CGI Thomas era), The episode Goodbye, Fat Controller would instead be Topham not planning to leave Sodor, but rather retire, which this time actually turns out to be true, with him making plans. And sorry to say, Thomas' attitude in this movie would be more suited to The Adventure Begins, where he is just as cheeky as in his debut. The real #1 Thomas movie. That way, Thomas' attitude won't have to be exaggerated like it was here, Making Topham come of as more cruel, Ala Dr. Eggman in tails' story (Sonic Adventure)
      And the movie itself can play out with its own 3 strikes, but after it's found out that STH refused to accept that Thomas saved everyone, things come to a boiling point because he not only let Gordon get away with teasing Thomas, but credited Rocky for discovering the pirate ship where there's no logical way a crane like him could have.
      For all these actions, Topham is given the boot before he can complete his retirement plans. And Gordon? In my Henry gets the Express rewrite, Gordon gets the Express taken away as punishment for his behaviour.

  • @MainLineEngine112
    @MainLineEngine112 2 года назад +72

    A relief to see someone actually acknowledge that the dynamite incident *was* ultimately Thomas’ fault. What I think makes Thomas’ character arc from S19 into LOTLT even better is how we got TAB right before S19, to give us the full bookend to bookend story arc. I love Thomas and Topham’s characterizations in this movie. Finally I can take Topham seriously for one thing. Thomas is maybe a little more childish than I’d like him to be but that also comes down to his voice, especially in the US. For the most part, the dialogue itself captures him really well. His flaws are on full display and I’m here for it.
    The one thing I will say though is I honestly don’t think Ryan was meant to be a “villain,” or even a legitimate antagonist. Overconfident and dismissive is literally exactly how Thomas acts in this movie, and he’s not a villain. He surely would have been less of a nice character, but I don’t think there’s anything to suggest he’d be any more antagonistic than like, Diesel in Misty Island Rescue or something kinda like that. Being overconfident in a way that causes problems, but not being malicious in any way. But even then, I’m glad they didn’t go with that. The fact that Thomas is unjustified in his dislike of Ryan works in the movies favor in my opinion and I’m glad they went with what they did for him.

    I’m glad someone has put a deeper nose dive into this. The fact that so many people despise this film purely because of the Fat Controller’s treatment towards Thomas is honestly petty and I feel like they don’t know the personalities. *not saying they don’t, but that’s just how I feel*
    The thing about SLOTLT is that Thomas and the Fat Controller are actually in character here. For so long, the Fat Controller was portrayed as the stereotypical funny fat man. To see him act authoritarian again felt so real and true to his character. After all, it’s this personality that was introduced to us all the way back in 1945 when he shut up Henry in the tunnel then let him back out again, or when he moved Thomas to Edward’s station to learn how to deal with trucks.
    And the fact that most of the fandom rejected this portrayal in the film is kinda as saddening as how Percy went through a character arc of being brave in TOTB only to regress back into his cowardly nature in the next season.
    But back to the point, that’s an interesting idea. Who’s Geoffrey and SLOTLT definitely share similarities as you pointed out. In fact, back in 2015 when I first watched it after SLOTLT, I was a little confused to why Thomas decided to tell a lie after his growth in the film, until it was revealed that SLOTLT takes place after Season 19 and the Great Race. After that statement, it all made sense, especially as Season 20 backed this up with the Ryan & Daisy episodes and the Arlesdale Trilogy.

      But yeah, that's really telling how fans reacted to the dynamite incident, and being honest, it's rather childish. The Fat Controller may not have had the whole details, but it was entirely Thomas' fault for not warning Ryan about the bad coal. He had put Ryan and so many others at risk from that.
      However, credit where credit is due. Thomas was brave with stopping the dynamite and if the construction vehicles had told the Fat Controller exactly what happened, perhaps he could have been less harsh.
      But it still wouldn't change the fact that Thomas was indeed at fault for what happened, and people can blame everything on the Fat Controller, Gordon or anybody else for it, it all points back to Thomas.

    I've stood by this take on the movie since 2015.
    "Never Overlook a Little Engine", while a cool song, doesn't belong in SLOTLT. I never saw any circumstance where Thomas was put down because of being little.
    Everything that goes wrong in the movie is on Thomas. He nearly caused a head-on collision with Toby while racing Bertie. He gloated that he could get away with anything because he was the number one engine.
    People were late for work or important matters, such as hospital visits, because Thomas not only slept in, but decided to fool around with Gordon's coaches. And then, when a pile-up was caused, and trains were delayed until it could be cleared and the tracks declared safe, what does Thomas do? Say it was Gordon's fault. Then Emily's. Then Toby's.
    Thomas proceeds to complain to the small engines that Gordon caused his banishment to the Construction Yard. It's never his fault.
    He loses valuable building supplies by rushing in and not listening to warnings.
    He deliberately neglects to tell Ryan about bad coal when Ryan's handling explosives. He may have saved everyone, but it doesn't change the fact that he put everyone in danger.
    And yet people insist that the Fat Controller is being aggressive and nasty. If you lost valuable supplies and money because an employee's acting the fool, you'd act just the same.
    This movie was about Thomas learning to get over himself and get his act together.

And about the incident where he fell into the hole, I thought he really was telling what he thought was the truth to Sir Topham Hatt. The narrator said that Thomas did hear the men shouting, but he misinterpreted it as them being happy to see him and not as them trying to stop him, so technically, Thomas wasn't really LYING, he was telling Sir Topham Hatt his perspective of things, even if it wasn't how events really played out.

    Amazing theory. I kind of thought "Who's Geoffrey?" is kind of a link to Sodor's Legend of the Lost Treasure as well...even though I am not really a fan of "Who's Geoffrey?". But either way, it does make sense, if you consider "Who's Geoffrey?" occurring before Sodor's Legend of the Lost Treasure. But either way, I still love Sodor's Legend of the Lost Treasure, despite how heartbroken I got...with all of Thomas' scenes with the Fat Controller. But I do believe, that his punishment in the first place was understandable, since (as you said) he caused the express coaches to derail, across the main line. ...And personally, I do kind of find Gordon at fault there, because he was once again making "no shunting" nonsense, even though the Fat Controller told him, back in "Percy Runs Away", that none of the tender engines should be making complaints about shunting.

    Ive always thought that SLOTLT was the boiling point for Sir Topham Hatt to finally think that he should one day put his foot down on Thomas' shenanigans when Thomas goes way too far with his stupidity, eagerness or arrogance.
    Something weird that I noticed when I was on the Thomas Wiki 2 days ago or yesterday that I would've wished to be in the aftermath of the treasure chase sequence was that it mentioned Sir Topham Hatt bringing up Ryan also telling him about the dynamite incident.
    Another thing that I wouldve also liked for Thomas to explain to Topham was that he was the first one to discover the pirate ship not Rocky since he saw it when he fell down the sinkhole.
    The only time I can recall an engine straight up lashing out at Sir Topham Hatt for an accident he or she didn't cause whether it was something that wasn't out of his or her control or caused by someone else for spite was in Thomas1Edward2Henry3's S3 episode "Sent packing".

    Personally, while Who's Geoffrey does acts as a nice prequel to SLOTLT, in my opinion I feel like it doesn't really add a lot to the overall plot (Plus, I feel like they should have actually had Geoffrey be real at the end).
    Not to mention, it doesn't excuse his behaviour towards Thomas. I mean alright, the first two times okay, but the third time? Nah, not on. Couldn't the Fatt Hatt just let Thomas get a bloody word in?!
    It really hurts just seeing him shouting at poor Thomas, especially the scene after the dynamite incident. What hurts even more is that Thomas doesn't shout back.
    I mean Thomas has stood up for himself to other characters before (Such as Diesel 10 in Thomas and the Magic Railroad, Spencer in Hero of the Rails and, of course, Hector in Hector the Horrid), so why he doesn't stand up to his own controller?
    In my opinion, what should have happened is that Thomas should have snapped back at the Fat Controller and run away from the Island of Sodor. The Fat Controller would then feel guilty for his actions and go to find his number one engine and apologise. After that, he then punishes Gordon for being lazy and rude towards Thomas by taking away his express and having him work at the Smelters.

    @Railway Sparrow, The fat controller was wrong in the dynamite incident. Yes, Thomas should NOT have tricked Ryan into taking on bad coal, but what The Fat Controller does to Thomas is too far. He outright accuses Thomas of trying to kill Ryan! I’m sorry, but no. That’s not right. Thomas isn’t the nicest engine, but he’s not cruel! He would never, ever intentionally try to murder an innocent engine, even if he didn’t like said engine! Also, isn’t not learning the full story too far, even a little?! True, it wouldn’t have changed much since Thomas tricked Ryan into taking on bad coal, but still. So basically, The Fat Controller makes the same mistake he does after the cavern incident. Like I said, giving your kids the message that they don’t matter is just not right at all! I completely understand why The Fat Controller is doing this to Thomas, but I can’t condone it!

    • @kylemcnellis5893
      @kylemcnellis5893 10 месяцев назад

      Also, about the cavern incident. I agree Thomas wasn’t being very smart here. He shouldn’t have jumped in where he didn’t belong. He should have asked permission to take the supplies first, as well as where the supplies were going.
      However, once again, the way The Fat Controller handles it is not good. I don’t think Thomas is necessarily lying on that time. Rather, I think he’s telling The Fat Controller what he thinks happened. Maybe he didn’t hear the workmen’s warning (Granted, Thomas should have looked back to listen, but still). He’s not correct obviously, but it’s what he thinks happened. Also, I feel like dismissing Thomas the way he does is not the way to teach kids a lesson. I completely understand that The Fat Controller is trying to make Thomas learn, but that’s just not the way to do it. If you’re a parent, and you dismiss your kid the way The Fat Controller dismisses Thomas in that scene is going to give kids the message that their parents just don’t care about them, and let’s be real. Does a parent want their child to hate him/her? No! Absolutely not!

    Despite Thomas not bothering to warn Ryan about the bad coal, still he sorta does the right thing to push the dynamites away to protect everyone - besides, Sir Topham Hatt becomes out of character to get this furious and harsh ever

    I agree with what you say about Thomas, but this is The Fat Controller's WORST movie/special appearance to date! He just goes back to how he treated Percy for NO ABSOLUTE REASON in Middle Engine during the 3rd time where he "punishes" Thomas.

    🙋🏻‍♂️ I strongly beg to differ I can rewrite S-L-O-T-L-T and have Thomas & the fat controller in their true colors and not of character whatsoever it doesn’t suit the critics and it didn’t and still today doesn’t suit me Topham was just being so unfair to his Number 1 as Thomas May have caused the accident he couldn’t acted quickly to fetch the breakdown train and Judy & Jerome would put all the coaches back on the rails and then would the fat controller forgive him? Improvement. And then lost treasure won’t be so bad after all. So take note 📝 because I see the better in them as we’re not in the young age anymore. P.S I’m only saying so just to let you know that I’m trying to improve Thomas & the fat controller respectfully.

      You really misunderstood this video.
      Even if thomas fixed the mess quickly (which would be hard when its so big and would take so long) the fat controller would still have every right to be just as angry at him.
      Also the fat controller being forgiving when engines make an accident isn't in character. He has been just as angry here over smaller issues that were not the engines fault.
