Production

The idea came from BrendenReis10's Thomas The Movie, Eli loved BrendenReis10's models since they looked so movie-worth and Eli wanted to be more like him, and when he had the idea of this film. Filming production has officially begun in December 19th, 2019. (Production was gonna begin in January 2020, but Eli decided to do the production a bit earlier) (https://www.instagram.com/p/B6PTkLNnS5q/)

Trivia

  1. Soundtrack will be worked on in October 2019, The Polar Express, Chicken Little and Postman Pat: The Movie soundtracks will be used as the soundtrack of the movie. Alan Silvestri, John Debney and Rupert Gregson Williams.
  2. The Artist is known as "The Artist", because drawing is his hobby AKA enthusiasm. (Artist means creator and the artist creates drawings)
  3. The direct-to-DVD US release as a Walmart Exclusive in January 6th, 2021 (Which will also be Eli Kelly Bodhi Hall's 17th birthday) is like an early-screening and since the film is set in early-spring 2 months future from Walmart Exclusive release. 
  4. In the movie, the reason why Timothy is called "Timothy The Ghost Engine" is because his white/grey colors make him look a bit like one and Timothy thought it was a pretty fun name too.
  5. Timothy was rebuilt into a Jinty (Which technically makes Macie the sister of Timothy since she is also a Jinty) and Thomas is the only E2 that isn't extinct. 
  6. Around 2020, while the making of the film, Eli, the creator of the film will also practice to get his drivers license. He was gradtuated in 10th grade, 2019. Because he turned 16 in January 6th, 2020.
  7. The film's title words "The Tank Engine" shown in shiny glitter letters is a reference to the logo of "My Little Pony: The Movie" (2017). 
  8. Rated PG-13 for some strong languange and mature themes in the US, rated M for mature themes and some strong languange in Australia and rated 15 for mature themes and some strong languange in UK. It's recommended to them to be accompanied by their parents or an adult guardian. Rated PG: Parental guidance suggested – Some material may not be suitable for children. Rated PG-13: Parents strongly cautioned – Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13.
  9. This film is a passion project to show Eli's enthusiasm on his inner child, model railways and other things too. (Some bonus features will have some family media for the little ones too, but the actual movie is for mature audiences and as long as the people who are watching it are mature enough too.) 
  10. Links for some pictures/videos for the film: https://www.youtube.com/user/OliverKH1/videoshttps://www.instagram.com/elikellybodhihall2004/https://www.deviantart.com/pixarfan2015/gallery/ and https://yoboyelisaccount.tumblr.com/search/Thomas%20the%20Tank%20Engine:%20The%20Big%20Adventure.
  11. Universal Pictures really wanted to be part of the project, but the creator of the film, Eli said "No", since they have enough companies and Universal released the TTTE stuff on video, so they don't need to be part of a Thomas film. Eli also felt that Universal has nothing to do with Thomas or railways, but does deal with it's distribution. The thing that bugs him that it's not Warner Bros. since he loves Polar Express and that film is Warner Bros., not Universal.
  12. Eli, the creator of the film, his custom models/characters for "TTTE: The Big Adventure" are supposed to be mostly a combination of their basis/RWS counterparts with a few bits of their TV series counterparts too, but mostly RWS/basis. He did like to try to capture what it's like to be in the real world with these locomotives in this movie and try to capture the realism in it too. There are some differences between the customs for the film and the RWS/TVS counterparts. Some are not completely accurate to their basis for the film, but they'll do to Eli.  Some locations are completely different than in the actual TTTE series.
  13. Marie's design is to parody Underground Ernie, Omar's design is to parody Chuggington 
    and Joe's is to parody Roary The Racing Car
  14. Tillie and Casey Jr were built in 1881, Lee, Marie, Omar and Joe were built in the 1975, Macie was built in 1929, Smokey Joe was built in 1895, Ted was built in 2015 and Liam was built in 1966 (Though the basis for the diecast car that Liam is made out of is a Chevrolet built in 1955, but the real basis for Liam that Eli chose is a 1966 Ford vehicle, although the diecast basis is actually a 1955 Chevrolet, Eli felt like choosing to pretending that Liam was made of a 1966 Ford car since it was more interesting to him.) They all live at London. 
  15. Macie's number is 1915, which is a reference to the year when Thomas was built and came to Sodor.

Soundtrack

The Soundtrack is Composed By Alan Silvestri (Polar Express music), Rupert Gregson Williams (Postman Pat: The Movie music) and John Debney (Chicken Little music). Some bits of these soundtracks sound a bit like Thomas & Friends music to Eli (Which is an unpopular feeling) and he names some of the music some of the Thomas music themes for the film, but he won't mean actually the real themes, he means custom fan-made ones made from film music. Some little bits of music for the film will be scored by other composers too.
