War of the Worlds
 

Saw this commercial last night during the Superbowl asked my Dad what is was about.. Something like aliens attacking?? Who cares Spielberg+Cruise :y: Looks like it is going to be awesome hopefully better than Signs.

Is there an education system in your town?

yeah it was filmed 2 towns across from where i live, i know someone who has a small cameo in it as a nurse...

Damn all these remade movies to hell. Are there no original concepts left?

:cool: yea

i have a feeling this movie will be all special effects and nothing else. it'll probably suck. spielberg's past his prime.

looks good

No

Rain Man, get the book out of the library by H G Wells or try and get a copy of the Orson Welles radio play thing that they did of the book. I've heard bits of it and it's awesome.

Can't wait.

I saw the original on tv.

I've not seen the trailer, but I'm interested to know what exactly has made it the most expensive movie ever (supposedly).

it's not the most expensive movie ever. they found a way to actually budget it at around $100 million, i remember reading on comingsoon.net.

Have you scene the Superbowl teaser trailer?

That shot probably cost $54 million alone.

$128 million, apparently. Guess the magazine who claimed it was the most expensive movie ever were lying...

yup this looks fuckin hot.

Are you shitting me? As if one of those ancient minivans could outrun an alien onslaught. This is gonna be a big pile of shit.

The book is good.. I think the movie will be pretty good. I never cared for the first movie.

yea, my dad was telling me about the Orson Wells thing. I was like wtf?

Yeah man, it's a script by a little known author, H.G. Wells or something, he had his first big hit with that Time Machine shit that hit a couple years ago.

Orson Welles is honestly one of my hereos.

The special effects looked shitty. Diarrhea shitty!!

I have a copy of the original radio broadcast. I remember being really into it as a kid when my dad told me about it. How people were seriously freaked out because they thought it was all real. Crazy.

:y:

Oh God no

yea, so I read more into this Orson Wells thing and seriously, he was/is the fucking man. WHAT A SWEVE. And some of you know how much I dig the swerves :yes:

Kris calling H G Wells a little known author. Funny stuff. :)

Anything is better than Signs. :lol:

I probably won't see this movie, but just to elaborate, Orson Wells=the man. :y:
