Presenting dogfights in space, even whole planets exploding, in complete silence would be very dull.
It would be - and I suppose it is - very dull for audiences craving excitement and the feeling of adrenaline pumping in their veins. Sadly this is a major part of today's audiences, but it could be said that the sight of planets exploding in complete silence might offer a much more awesome experience to some using their mental capabilities rather than needing the jostling around provided by strong emotions, even if founded on unreality.
Actually you are mixing up two movies : Voyage to the Center of the Earth, and 20,000 Miles Beneath the Sea, both inspired by books from Jules Verne.
Captain Nemo was the inventor of the Nautilus (a submarine) in the second one of these books.
I suggest you go watch the movie "The Core", and watch very carefully.
It is not as stupid as it may sound.
The dangers to the planet, however, may be very real.
You are certainly making sense, to me at any rate.
As far as I know there is no "unobtainium" yet like in the movie "The Core" to make this probe be impervious to a heat of 5000 degrees and be able to withstand incredible pressures which don't even exist at the bottom of the seas and which cause molten iron to become solid again.
And how would they keep the probe in the midst of that giant drop of molten iron ?
And moreover, gravity would be enough to make it descend to the outer frontier of the core, but why would it, and how could it, go lower as it would not be heavier than the material the core is composed of ?
I think that movie may have incensed a lot of ptople's imaginations, and this proposal may well be just a result of this.

What need would there be to go up to the molten iron anyway ? There are no diamonds or whatever to be found there.
It has probably been frozen from about the time it separated itself from the earth...

And be sure to ask your parents first !
