The book is more science-oriented with geology & paleontology while the films adopt an action/adventure approach. Romantic leading ladies are added which the book lacks. 🌍⛏️🌋 #filmsky #booksky
neutral · AI labelView post →I watch bad-to-mediocre movies basically every night and Albert Pyun's Journey to the Center of the Earth is maybe the least coherent movie I've seen in the last two years. Just a marvel of pure nonsense.

A Professor & his nephew discover a secret passage to a subterranean world. Prehistoric monsters, molten lava and adventure. Lots of fun!🤠 #booksky #filmsky #scifisky

I saw “Journey to the Center of the Earth” on the list&it has Josh Hutcherson in it… of course I had to pick it immediately. 🤣 I haven’t seen the movie in years. 😭

Jules Verne's work has inspired a lot of contemporary films, shows, and books, with many stories drawing from his adventurous spirit, exploration themes, and early sci-fi concepts. Here's a list of some that are heavily influenced by Verne's ideas: Films & TV Shows The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003) This film is filled with characters from 19th-century literature, including Captain Nemo, who is a key character from Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. The film…
neutral · AI labelView post →JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH (2008, Tubi, #film) A 3D(🫵!!!) family action theme park ride that's much less hacky or phoned in than it could have been. Brendan Fraser does Arms, Josh Hutchinson does Kid, and Anita Briem does Blonde. It's surprisingly fine, if set entirely in a Playstation 3.

It was Icelandic athlete Peter Ronson’s only film role. Gertrude, bitter at not earning a best supporting actress nod, also retired from filmmaking with just one credit.

neutral · AI labelView post →PointlessHub reminded me that Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008) was a movie that existed and that I convinced my middle school's cinema club to screen it with anaglyph 3D glasses given for the audience, because of my hyperfixation on the technology at the time.
neutral · AI labelView post →The worldbuilding in "Alien From LA"/"Journey To The Center Of The Earth" is absolutely amazing and intricate. There's so much creativity here. It's like if you grew up and made a movie based on one of the stories you wrote when you were eleven but also kept the same story and dialogue.
positive · AI labelView post →Okay. I have just now learned that "Alien From L.A." was essentially a reshoot of "Journey To The Center Of The Earth" which was released as a separate film after Albert Pyun salvaged the incompetent efforts of director Rusty Lemonade. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rusty_L...
neutral · AI labelView post →Journey To the Center of the Earth was a decent film. I actually enjoyed that one.
positive · AI labelView post →i think i'm starting to understand those movies *Journey To The Center Of The Earth* and *At The Earth's Core* and that obsession. At one point we were actually digging just to see how fucking deep we could dig, and that's pretty neat when you think about it.
neutral · AI labelView post →JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH (1959, VOD, #film) A massively sexy Pat Boone (hand to god) and an overly talented cast of babes do battle with a plodding, plotzing, tired script that keeps putting the focus on sexism, villainry, and duck reaction shots instead of the wondrous adventure. Eh!

neutral · AI labelView post →Hello, decade-old review of Journey to the Center of the Earth. Ouch, this was harsh! I have no memory of watching this film, so no idea if it merited a response this scathing. Sentiments could probably be applicable to some other stuff out there now.

neutral · AI labelView post →The only thing wrong with the 1959 film of Journey to the Center of the Earth is: no Harryhausen. I also just read that they originally wanted Clifton Webb (!) for Professor Lindenbrook, but he wasn't in good enough health to play the role.

neutral · AI labelView post →The super uggos weirdo world of the 1989 Journey to the Center of the Earth. Turrible movie, but sweet Emo Philips cameo!
negative · AI labelView post →Albert Pyun is one of those underappreciated b-movie scifi / cyberpunk / action directors, although to be fair he does have an underground cult following. My personal favourite is [Radioactive Dreams](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091818/). This is an electric mix of post-apocalypse and a parody of 50's private eye motifs. It really is a unique experience. Fallout 1/2 were clearly inspired by Radioactive Dreams. I will agree with @[email protected], and recommend people avoid anything…
neutral · AI labelView post →Oh, I forgot to mention the not good movies that I watched over and over again on VHS in my childhood. Number one would be the 1959 version of Journey to the Center of the Earth where James Mason plays a Scotsman and doesn't even bother with an accent and Pat Boone also plays a Scotsman but gives up on the accent after about 10 minutes. The whole plot is moronic and the effects are terrible and I love every single minute of it. The only true compliment I can give it is that Bernard Herrmann's…
neutral · AI labelView post →This morning's movie, with the great James Mason, is Journey to the Center of the Earth. Pat Boone sings. Alan Napier (Batman) looks distinguished as always. Thayer David (Dark Shadows) serves as the antagonist. Diane Baker looks pretty. A goose steals the show. www.imdb.com/title/tt0052...

Technically a sequel to the 2008 Journey to the Center of the Earth, but w/ The Rock replacing Brendan Fraser & adding Michael Caine & Luis Guzman. Josh Hutcherson returns as obligatory kid protagonist.

neutral · AI labelView post →I think the first movie I actually saw as a kid was either Journey to the Center of the Earth (at home on TV), which totally fascinated me, or The Invisible Man (1958 series). I also remember seeing "The Railway Children", I think in the theatre with my younger sister and mother.

The repeats on the list (with two people each suggesting them) are Star Wars; Dune; Love, Death and Robot;, and Journey to the Center of the Earth, the 2008 film. For the rest, we can divide into medium:
neutral · AI labelView post →I imagine you could just watch the Doug McClure "Journey to the Center of the Earth", skip to the mahar scenes, and every time the film cuts away from the mahars just close your eyes and imagine zeppelins or biplanes, that'd give a pretty good impression.
