Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea

Around the World Undersea- A Lloyd Bridges movie that used to play regularly on the CBS late night movie when I was a kid. All I really remember is a giant moray eel.

Capt Nemo and the Underwater City- another late movie staple, it'll be fun trying to spot the Jupiter 2 miniature thrifty Irwin Allen converted into a undersea building!

I think I still have the comic of Around the World Under the Sea. When I was a boy I made a model of the sub from a saturn five, a prize machine bubble, and tic tac containers for the legs.

Isn't that captain nemo thing the one where he used the seaview models to create a quicky nautilus?

It was City Beneath the Sea which was the Irwin Allen TV-movie. Imdb says they re-used the flying sub from VBS.

Capt. Nemo and the Underwater City was theatrical(I saw it back then,) had Robert Ryan and Chuck Connors, and neat spfx of it's own.

"Captain Nemo and the Underwater City" was a 1969 British production starring Robert Ryan and Chuck Connors. Perhaps you guys are confusing it with Irwin Allen's 1970s TV-movie "City Beneath the Sea," with Robert Wagner, Rosemary Forsyth and lots of recycled "VTTBOTS" stuff, including the Flying Sub (called an "aquafoil"!). I believe Irwin Allen also made a TV pilot called "The Return of Captain Nemo," but I can't recall any of the cast. Can anyone straighten us out here?

DOH!!

TCM came to Canada last week and I'm like a kid in a candy store.

Woke up last Friday and discovered that the Spanish language "Telelatino" had been moved to a digital tier (guess how many Spanish speakers there are in Winnipeg, Canada). Lo and behold, there was TURNER CLASSIC MOVIES in it's place on my basic cable. Now I'm FINALLY seeing all these movies I've only heard about...saw THE INVISIBLE BOY for the first time last week and saw A GUY NAMED JOE for the first time this morning.

“The Return of Captain Nemo” starred Jose Ferrar in the title role. It was produced by Irwin Allen as a made-for-TV movie in the early `80’s, and features a butchered Seaview in the role of the Nautilus. As someone else pointed out, the butchered Jupiter II model appears as the top of a mushroom-shaped office building in Allen's "City Beneath the Sea" (a personal favorite of mine).

A web site (Jup2.com ?), has photos from "City Beneath the Sea" showing how they used all of the J2 models, including the unused ten footer as buildings in the background of the surface city. The smaller J2'a were also used as buildings in the Pacifica city model. If you ever get to see a rerun of the season ender of "Soap", where you see Burt's ufo, it is one of the J2 models that had been cut-up for CBTC. They had flashing lights shinning out of the holes cut in the hull.

David, I would love to see those photos.

I was unable to find them on Jup2, but perhaps I didn't look hard enough. I'll try again, but in the meantime if you should happen to come across the link you're referencing I'd be grateful if you'd post it.

For some reason, Mozilla won't let me do a copy and past into this box. Go to http://Jup2.com . Click on 'the flight deck', then click on 'Orig. Props', then scroll down the page until you see the photos from CBTC.
