  • Very nice work.

  • Please reload first 6 parts somewhere.... do you have a CD of them you can send?

  • It's a shame that most of us can't see the first 6 videos that you've made. Because it comes up with copyright and what-not. But if you could sort it out so we can see the first 6 i'd be most happy

  • it's so creepy at 3:02 when the bermuda guy suddenly cuts out and then that creepy music starts quiet at first and then gets louder.

  • Great series, fantastic.

    

  • hmm dead london ????

  • great series thank you...

    yeah back then H G Wells or even NASA didnt know that sending a human past the moon is IMPO~SSIBLE... you can send a human much further past the moon..

    why? well because our spirits wont let us... what happened when they first tried was... the astronaughts got pulled out of their bodies./ their bodies and the craft moved on while they were left out in space with no solid body... musta been real scary.. yup its a fact guys..thats why the QUARAN is about QUARANTINE

  • sent this on 3d glasses !!! :-D

  • HOLY SHIT

  • Truly excellent work, my only regret is not finding you before the mutant martian tapeworms took down the early parts. Rest assured, if it had been my decision, the only lawyers involved would have been from R & D offering you a distribution deal.

  • High,

    thank you for all your hard work. I enjoyed every minute. You're a star (wars). Hope your next project will be as succesfull as this one.

    Is there a possibillity to get all 11 parts on a, by me paid for, DVD?

    thx again.

  • @compressedfilms first of all , Compliments for the work you did on war of the worlds .

    Too Bad i cant see part 1 to 7 .. Is there a way i can get it from you , i will even pay for it.

    Im a big wotw fan and would like to have this one also in my collection.

    Hope you can help me.

    Many greetings from holland.

    Love youre work

  • Without a doubt, this collection is outstanding, and it is a credit to Richard K.

    Its been a pleasure to view this over the last 18 months and i wait with anticipation for your next project.

    I hope this gets viewed by Jeff Wayne.It showcases his spectacular soundtrack in the best possible way.

    Credit where credit is due ......This should be given some kind of award in recognition.

  • Well done all your hard work has really pulled off fantastic once again well done.

  • beautifully done really exceptional. is there another site where i can watch the first parts again getting a blocked by sony message when i try them, which i must say is foolish if there is anything that would encourage people to rush out and buy the album more than your videos i've yet to see it

  • really good only you have it also in dutch? or with dutch subscribes?

  • From first to last truely EXCELLENT.Thank you Richard for bringing such a masterpiece up to date in such an awesome manner..Any aprehentions I had were blown away from the first episode..If there were Oscars for internet films no doubt who the winner would be.Thank you again and may your work get the recognition it deserves FIRST CLASS. Looking forward to your next project.I am sure HG Wells would have approved of your work.Again many thanks and the best of luck in the future.Truely OUTSTANDING

  • For the first episode I was hooked. Waiting for these last episodes was hell, but oh so very, very worth every second.

    To all involved my most heart felt thanks for a great production.

  • Bravo! Bravo! Certainly one of the best things on YouTube!

  • Friggin fabulous.

    I just finished watching the final 4 and I am blown away.

    I have been following this since the beginning, and you have excited, htrilled and never ceased to amaze me in the process.

    I really hope this leads to something big for you - you deserve it.

    Good luck & God Bless

    Oh, and thanks for these.

    Ritch

  • Ok, I was lucky enough to watch all the episodes from start to finish. You sir, are an absolute genius. I remember being at Primary School in Scotland when I first heard Jeff Wayne's version, my year 6 teacher made us listen to it for a project ... some project! It scared the living hell out me...was always fascinated and intrigued by the artwork (Panic In The streets!) you got with the cassette and always put myself in the position of the journalist. You need to be knighted for this. Will.

  • Well done on this! I did comment on one of the earlier vids but I didn't see my name in the credits - Not to worry though, my claim to fame will come yet! lol!

    I enjoyed these vids and will definately be emailing them on to other folks

  • What a fantastic job on the entire piece... I remember that the album came out near the time of the Viking space craft landing on mars... Wonder when man get on Mars that we will actually see little green men ...

  • Duke Nukem is goin to be pissed to have his vacation ruined

  • OH YEAH!

  • Incredible job, thank you. Is there any alternative way to see the first seven episodes?

  • Fantastic amazing and spell binding i am truly sorry i cannot watch your complete works it is a masterpiece and an achievement only mastered by the masters of suspence in Hollywood ! you will be that famous one day ! :))) have a great future.

  • this is great true talent keep it up . enjoyed this very much

  • Its a pity that now no one will get to see this in its entirety as most of the earlier parts are now blocked by sony. I enjoyed watching this.

  • Comment removed

  • now that was good hope to watch it again and again I like war of the worlds even got the album ( thanks for the mention)

  • I may be one of the thousands of people who wants to thank you for this amzing work. I spend a whole sunday afternoon to watch it and I enjoyed it very much.

    I recommended to all my friends.

    Once again: Thank you.

  • martians will give a second chance (The War Is Not Over Yet)

  • Richard, thank you so so *so* much for this. Have loved this album since I was a kid, and have hated the film versions...this is the closest thing I've ever seen to what I imagine when I listen to it! Congrats again on the series, and all your wonderful work over the past two years : )

  • What a fine end to a great film. I truly enjoyed each and every part. Do you have any plans to splice the segments together. I look foreword to tour next production, you have really set the bar high with War of the Worlds. Thanks for sharing your artistic vision.

  • this was great ! next time make the time machine!

  • I have run out of superlatives for this wonderful production so I will just say a simple though very sincere thank you.

  • ¡¡¡THANKS TO YOU RICHARD K.!!!

    There must to invent words to describe this awesome work!!!

  • amazing thanks for this im sad its over tho now!

  • Utterly amazing. Shame its come to an end but all good things must. Anyone i talk to who likes WOTW i tell them to watch this amazing version. I hope this isnt the last project mate, although next time try for a little funding maybe? At least to give yourself some more HDD space? Well done. !!!!!!

  • An amazing piece of work! Well done Richard. We can all only look on in awe at how you have harnesed the technology to create this work of love and devotion. Utterly spellbinding!

    Where next tho? Just how do you follow that, as they say?

    You would have to be an enormous fan of the musical of course, but as Cameron Macintosh himself says Les Miserables is "unfilmable!, why dont you step forward Richard and prove him wrong. If wnyone can tame the Les Miz beast and bring it to life - youre him!!

  • What a great ending to this masterpiece.

    And now for the Academy Award for visual arts....Richard K. of Compressed Films for his visually stunning rendition of the War of the Worlds.

    I can only wish this upon you....you deserve this. It is much better than most of the movies the "big boys" make.

  • @adkpeakboy I second that!

  • Gotta say I'm impressed you listed every last one of your subscribers. I like that humility. I loved the whole series, I would LOVE to see what you could do with proper funding, if I was filthy rich I swear it would be worth a few million to see what you could do with this.

  • in my opinion, this is THE tribute of tributes.

  • Man I loved every part of this - fantastic - congrats on completing this and for making it so bloody good - respect to your version, I managed to spot my name on the credits - cheers!! Once again - a fantastic job - why couldn't they make a film like this?

  • are those the subscribers names in there then?

  • @ferahgo90 sure they are, a few chapters before he told in the epiloge that all subscribers will be listed in the end

  • I forgot something that I wanted to mention, that struck dirctly into my houmor center:

    The H1N1 virus. At last it has a use, thoughthe media created such a great hysterical atmosphere around it. ;)

  • the only thing I can say about this: OH MY GOSH, WHAT A MASTERPIECE OF FILM.

    You did such great work with all the animations and the well chosen pitcures and film parts, especially the Sky News reports. And I really think that I speak for all of the people that watched your film with enthusiasm: Thank you that you finished that project. Others may have given up, but you didn´t. You stuck to that project.

    So the last thing that should be mentioned here: THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU

  • Thats Awesome Richard, .... Oh and congratulations ....

    :3

  • Yikes scary ending. Evolution at it's finest comeback of the martians.

  • Incredible job.....all the superlatives have been used so all I can do is agree with everyone......look forward to your next project.......nice to know I played some small part in this masterpiece although I couldn't find my name in the end credits!!!......thanks a lot!

  • Fantastic, thank you so much.

  • Fantastic Job begining to end :)

  • Who cares if I can see my name or not? What matters is what you've accomplished with your effort and initiative.

  • Congratulations of finally completing your project. I hope someone important out there notices your fantastic piece of work and makes good use of it somehow. I might even attempt myself to suggest it one way or another. Maybe I'll send ITV or BBC a message. I'm being serious, no joke. Congrats once more

  • Awsome!

    Really enjoyed it from start to finish. Excellent work! Enjoyed it much more thanthe War of the Worlds that Tom Cruise played in.

    Looking forward to your future projects! ^^

  • That was amazing, I like the twist in the end when he Martians come back, the speed in the music brings the tension. Excellent job at making it look like it's happening. It's pretty hard finding each other's names with the wall of text though and some of the names are blurry.

  • I do appologise for the 'wall of names' but after cutting and pasting each one to note pad , the only way to keep the credits short was this.

    Adobe Titler would not touch them and siezed up.

    Photo shop just stuck them all in one gigantic line causing a real editing nightmare!

    So i settled for good old MS Publisher and ran them as scrolling A4!

    I

  • Oh I see. It's obviously best that way then.

  • @compressedfilms Thank you so much for this wonderful masterpiece if youtube gave out oscars for commitment and loyalty then you my friend certainly deserve such an acalade..i have really enjoyed the three years it has taken you to produce this fantastic work..my sincere thanks and congratulations go out to you...and rest assured that you have indeed made a lot of people very very happy ....may peace be with you...and thank you once again.

  • @compressedfilms Sorry to see those copyright lawyer scum have totally sullied your hard work! No more thunderchild - my favourite one! I can't believe it, upload them elsewhere!! I am shocked and really disturbed by the fact that they can't let it go considering the amazing work you've done! WMG/ Sony.. whoever it was, SHAME ON YOU!

  • Absolutely breathtakingly superb, from beginning to end. Thank you so much for doing this! Problem now is.... what will you do, now that it's done?!

  • Fantastic job! i loved and watched every video! amazing work.

  • Bloody brilliant - and I'm not just saying that because I got my name in the credits! *lol*

  • i take that green ball at the end was ment to be some sort of EMP?

    You did this story/recording justice. Have a drink & give youself a pat on the back.

    I look forward to your next project with anticipation.

    WELL DONE.

  • I also made a DVD from all the parts of this movie so it will be easier to share with friends. This is really a very impressive achievement. Of course, I was a fan of the music first, but I think this is a brilliant visual interpretation. Especially done as it was as a virtually no budget independent film.

    I thought I saw a mention that you might post the complete video without the music, presumably in higher resolution? That would be great. Please let us know when and where if you do.

  • Future projects? Any snippet of what you have lined up?

  • Thankyou for this masterpiece and on no budget at all!!

    All 11 films have given me great pleasure and I wish you luck in your future projects. I await with baited breath as to what they will be.

     Many thanks again.

  • Nice epilogue ! ;-)

  • Oh Crap.

  • hi dad

  • Thank you for this wonderful piece. It was an impressive work made with a budget of zero. You, good sir, should be proud.

    And the first Epilogue gave me chills :3

  • On Behalf of everyone, I thank you for this journey.

    I feel this could still be just the beginning of this project, not the end

    Outstanding work and all the best

    Thank you

  • I can honestly say this was the best thing ever :3

    Thank you for this exellent vids C:

  • My friend, may I offer my heartiest congratulations. You have delivered us a brilliant adaptation of what is, in my opinion, one of the most classic sci-fi stories of all time. For that, you shall always have my undying salute.

  • im putting this on dvd its so great

  • It was you who inspired my open source movie, so don't be surprised if you get a mention on the DVD :)

  • COOL!

  • Thanks man!!

  • Thank you so much for all the video's.

    What a project this was.
