''30,000 Leagues Under the Sea'' is a 2007 film that is a modern update on the classic book ''20,000 Leagues Under the Sea''. It stars Lorenzo Lamas as Lt. Aronnaux and Sean Lawlor as the misanthropic Captain Nemo. It also stars Natalie Stone, Kerry Washington, and Kim Little. The film is the first by The Asylum to be based on a Jules Verne novel, with ''Journey to the Center of the Earth'' following in 2008. ==Plot== In this modern retelling of the classic science-fiction tale, Captain Nemo uses his high-tech submarine to wreak vengeance on the surface world. This version takes place in the present day. It begins with the ''USS Scotia'' following strange radar traces near the Mariana Trench. The sub runs into trouble and is lost, though not before getting off a rescue beacon. The ''USS Abraham Lincoln'' finds the beacon and calls in the ''Aquanaut'' to assist in this deep-sea rescue. The ''Aquanaut'', captained by Lt. Arronaux, has been developing a water-to-air converter that is thought to be useful in this sort of mission. Command of the mission is, unfortunately, taken from Arronaux and given to Lt. Cmdr. Conceil (his ex-wife) who is presented as a "ball-buster" in contrast to Arronaux's confident but laid-back temperament. She and her assistant Blackwell are both administrative theoretical-techie types and end up stripping the ''Aquanaut'' of equipment that leave the ''Aquanaut'' in trouble as they descend to the level the ''Scotia'' is wrecked at. The equipment loss leads to the crew passing out for lack of oxygen. They come to on board the ''Nautilus'' and meet an apparently charming Captain Nemo. It soon becomes clear that the good captain is a bit unhinged and tending towards megalomania. The ''Aquanauts crew is imprisoned and brought out to be attached to a brainwashing machine. Arronaux escaped his escort to the holding pens and is loose to try and pull everyone out. He finds nuclear missiles from the ''Scotia'' in the process. He is found and aided by Cooper, another abducted sailor. The crew is able to make it back to their ship in an escape attempt but one is lost to Nemo's gunmen. They find and board the ''Scotia'', finding that Nemo lied and much of the ''Scotias crew is still alive. Having reprogrammed the remote device Nemo had planted on the ''Aquanaut'', the ship is then sent back to the ''Nautilus'' where it intercepts the missiles attempting to fire. The backlash scuttles the larger ship and it crashes into the underwater city of Lemuria, presumably with total losses. The Scotia is able to contact the ''Abraham Lincoln'' and the remainder of the rescue gets underway. Conseil shows Arronaux stolen plans of Nemo's ship. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「30,000 Leagues Under the Sea」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
