I readin this thread cuz I wanted to get a feel for the movie before seeing it myself. Wanted to make sure it was worth my $35...

But in the end it didn't matter, so many mixed reviews made me want to see it still, and thanks to our local DVD Club, I've seen it and wasn't all that disappointed. Yes DF made me angry, man she was soooo annoying (but I love her as an actress). Yes the son deserved to die... (hate hardened chirren) and some of the bits that were left out made me go, wtf?!?

But in the end... I liked it for all the flashy effects.
Stuck to the novel for the most part, and I liked how the narrator said at the end...
"we won our right to be here"

well i read the book and watched the movie.the movie was good for what it was,doesnt make sense saying it lacked this and that. the ending was straight out of the book, and i loved d way dey made the book into a modern day adaption and hinted some parts subtly....eg. when the lunatic guy was sayin that d japanese destroyed a tripod.that was a straight out of the book(modified a bit).Lemme provide some insight to some of these questions:
Q:How the son got to boston?
A:It possible that he jumped into one of the HUMVEES that were on fire(the ones that were rollin out after the explosion

Q:Why boston so important?
A:Tom wanted to get the children back to their mother

Q:What was the point of the red weed things?
A:In the book the martians sucked the humans blood from them in order to feed themselves....maybe dey cud just feed on the weeds in the adaptation

Q:Why did the aliens even wanted to kill people?
A:As the man said at the beginning, they were envious and maybe felt threatened by our presence

Q:How in the hell the car started back to work?
A:Tom recommended that the guy change some part or the other

Q:Why that little girl so friggin annoying!?
A:She need pills....i mean "this is your space"...WTF

Q:How I getting home?
A:Ask one of the tripods for a ride

Q:Does it have anything to eat home?
A:You could always eat some of the red weed

Ey Regarding War of the Worlds, what would make a really good sequel for this, honestly i would like to have a movie that woould wshow the asme time of the invasion but from another country's perspective, think about it, one tripod for Trinidad only, right by de oilfield an dem, pressure!!!

War of the Worlds 2...Rated R for Retarded

shivadee · « **Reply #28 on:** December 19, 2005, 03:28:11 PM »

if you never see this movie. Watch the time for the length of the movie and then stop it 5 minutes before the end. It go make you like it more and cuss less.

Red Paradox · « **Reply #29 on:** December 19, 2005, 04:23:15 PM »

I actually saw it and to be honest i did'nt have a problem with it. I would give it 4 out of 5

justinkoo · « **Reply #30 on:** December 19, 2005, 06:01:30 PM »

yeah this movie was good i dunno why so many people find it that bad

Red Paradox · « **Reply #31 on:** December 19, 2005, 06:40:58 PM »

Basically most people did not like the ending....and to be honest I found it a bit abrupt...but then again ...the movie displayed some intense Sci fi violence and beautiful special effects...I don't care what anybody says I like the movie.

shivadee · « **Reply #32 on:** December 19, 2005, 09:53:11 PM »

movie was great except for the ending. Loved the visuals AND the acting.

The ending also implied this. You mean to say that these aliens plan a "cool and calm" attack on us. put machines in the ground. Plan how they going to kill the people and take over and terraform the planet.........and they didnt know that they couldnt breathe the friggin air?!?!?!? nahhhhh man. It is how the original movie is........but i would expect a better way of showing it. rather than just watsisname give a speach off camera
