I loved the Gerry Anderson Captain Scarlet puppet series as a kid, even more than Thunderbirds. While the new, live-action Thunderbirds movie has a certain sense of kinetic excitement about it, I'm not sure how I feel about a CGI Captain Scarlet series. Yes, it'll be pacier and flashier than the puppet show, but in CGI, it'll still have a certain stiffness and unrealism... so it's this neither fish nor fowl thing that may just be too reminiscent of the original without bringing anything new to the table.

Or, you know, maybe it'll be great.
