I'm looking at the cover in front of me. Just thinking about the movie makes me shiver. That move, by Spielberg, was one of the greatest movies i have ever seen IMO. I saw it in a spacious room - pitch black.
AAAAA.... it was good.
Anybody else seen it? Any comments?

Its jut another movie where they show tom cuirse running
Just like every movie with jonny depp shows his feet.
How can you say that? The movie was superb!
Be ause I am stupid. I, hosstnly, didn't undestand. when they died. I was lost.
The people? Tom Cruise and his family never died - but billions of other people did.
Nah, I didn't understand what killed the aliens. I needed that explained to me.
Oh yeah, the aliens. I think it had something to do with that main robot getting blown up by the grenade.
Or the red fungi.
The bacteria, that us, has humans had grown immune to, killed them.
Why did you ask in the first place then? Did you look it up? :impissed:
Original Movie = more win
New Movies = lose, for not following the story.
Thats what I was told after I asked after the movie
Yes, I know - the ending was so disappointing. What really happened to the world after all those casualties?
But in the defence of Spielbergs version: The alien "walkers" are a fine interpretation me thinks, especially that noise they make and the "death ray" - it worked for me. And obviously, the way films are made now allowed for bigger scope in set pieces (the plan landing on the house, the fighting at the front line, etc) which certainly have more of a wow factor than the original.
Top eye candy, but like most modern films (or rather, most remakes?), lacking in integrity.
PS - Dakota Fanning = give that girl an oscar. Yeah its a rough film but she makes the best of it.... and I Am Sam...come on!...just give her the damn gong already.
This film had Tom Cruise in it. Therefore it is officially bad.
I've got the Jeff Wayne's version on cd, its good and is much more like the actual book by HG Wells.
We have it on Vinyl, and CD now too!
Vinyl. :thumb:
I find it more scary in a way, then the film, as it lets your mind creates its own images of what is happening.
Jeff Wayne rocks!
