Thomas Blasts Off (Thomas & Friends: All Engines Go!)

Plot
Thomas feels left out when his friends get to assemble pieces of a rocket while he gets the battery.

Why It Should Blast Off Into Space And Never Come Back

 * 1) It's a complete rehash of "Percy and the Funfair" from Season 10 of the original series only instead of attractions from the funfair being delivered it's pieces of a rocket.
 * 2) The 3 strikes formula makes it's comeback once again with Thomas wanting to deliver different pieces of the Rocket instead of the battery but being rejected each time.
 * 3) The whole idea of steam engines building a rocket is yet another stupid idea for a show about talking trains.
 * 4) Nia tries to push a rocket shell through a tunnel which is stupid since it's obvious it won't even fit! What did she think would happen?!
 * 5) An out of place reference to E.T. when Kana tries to push Thomas up a hill.
 * 6) Thomas is very ungrateful in the episode because instead of delivering the battery like he should he instead wants to deliver the other parts thinking they are more exciting and important.
 * 7) Animation errors that could've easily been fixed like Percy missing his boiler in one scene and Tidmouth Sheds disappearing.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) They at least finish up the rocket in the end.
 * 2) Unlike other episodes there isn't a song in this episode which is a nice change of pace.
