![]() While rummaging through the deceased's possessions, Trevor and Sean notice an uncanny relationship between current tectonic conditions and those observed in Max's notes. It looks like bonding will be an uphill battle for the technologically jaded teen and his mildly geeky bachelor uncle, but they share an appreciation for Max Anderson, Sean's father and Trevor's brother, a man who disappeared and was presumed dead ten years ago. Though others question its importance, Trevor is dedicated to his work and it's occupying his thoughts when he remembers at the last minute that his 13-year-old nephew Sean (Josh Hutcherson, Bridge to Terabithia) will be staying with him for the next ten days. Trevor Anderson (Brendan Fraser) is a geology professor specializing in the study of volcanoes. Verne's text is actually just a framework for this original contemporary adventure. It's quite a stretch even for producer Walden Media, a company that has mostly pleased viewers (if not financiers) this decade with its feature adaptations of literary fantasies. That's what Journey to the Center of the Earth does, bringing Jules Verne's 1864 science fiction novel to new generations. Rarely, though, do movies look back 148 years. At the same time, the industry keeps an eye on the past, in search of time-tested audience favorites, popular properties ripe for film treatment, and yesteryear hits due for a sequel or remake. Hollywood is often looking ahead: the next big movie, the next big star, the next big technology.
