Oh, how I wish for these directors to actually read the book and make a film that is true to the actual story. The only person to actually do that is Jeff Wayne.
I keep reading people saying the little girl (Rachel/Dakota) was annoying because of her screaming, but I honestly don't see why. I barely noticed her screaming to the point of being annoyed. And you have to think the girl is like 10 years old and freaking aliens are attacking and killing people...how would you expect a 10 year old child to react? Plus, if I remember well, at this point only Ray had actually seen the Tripod. The one I really disliked was Robbie, he was just plain stupid.
It seems a bit odd that aliens would come to earth, bury tripod war machines in the ground 100's if not 1000's of years before modern man settled there only to retrieve the tripods to harvest the recourses and terraform earth into their own world only after man had settled and consumed much of what the earth had to offer already. Kind of an unnecessary effort.
@hop208 Being the super-intelligent(ha) aliens that they are, perhaps they knew they would have trouble with the viruses we humans have become immune to, and they (aliens) were waiting to build some immunity to them?
@hop208 not to mention the fact that they were 'planning this for millions of years' but didn't consider that inhabiting the earth might be deadly to them
@hop208 the whole point is that they wanted to eat us not take our resources. It is like corn that grows in a field. The corn takes all the resources out the ground but we dont consume that we consume the corn.
@hop208 Actually if you think about it it actually makes sense. You wait for the crop to grow before you harvest it. They came to Earth to harvest the human population, they probably had to arrive "now" ( C21) because our numbers were large enough but our technology was also getting to dangerously advanced levels. If it weren't for their shields we'd have won easily.
@hop208 you do realise that the aliens came to earth to harvest humans specifically, kind of makes sense that they'd let us breed into the billions before they came to harvest us :P
@hop208 it was the director's way of trying something that other alien invasion films hadnt in the past. obviously now it doesnt look like such a good idea. he was trying to tell a classic story in a unique way. dont get me wrong, i still think the movie is crap, even though the effects are nice. the character rachel makes me want to sterilize the entire human race though...
Fun Fact: The Tripods cast into this move were actually manned by Real Aliens contracted to play themeselves in this movie. Everything you see including the Tripods is real. No Aliens or humans were harmed.
It must be weird for the people who lives in those houses to see them destroyed like this in the movie . I checked it on Google Street and they really exist lol
I do not know if it was intended to be so, but this movie is one of the best horror movies I have seen. It doesn't show serial killers with laughable deaths. It doesn't show ghosts haunting places with silly visual effects. This one shows the true horror of death and invasion. THIS is the perfect Horror Movie.
@RedneckMonkey762 This movie would of been amazing without the entire annoying family. Or if they'd just got offed in the first 10 minutes, then it's another hour of aliens melting humans and blowing up all our shit. Then 10 minutes at the end of humans kicking alien ass as the aliens get sick and weak from all our diseases.
@MaemiSaemiNaemi13 It's a movie. I don't want to listen to a screaming ten year old the whole time.Theres plenty of those in the theater. Also.the original novel didn't have this annoying girl.
@RedneckMonkey762 In most of these kind of movies, they have screaming girls. So don't be surprised if another movie comes out and they have another little girl screaming.
@mmX1995 you can also see a red car at 0:18, but when the laser or whatever hits the building it's gone. and when the bridge collapses a fuel truck crashes into the houses but you cant see it on the highway. those are only little errors. just saw them because i watched the movie a few times.
@springkikkertje You're right about the car. But when the bridge collapsed, the truck flew up in the air and the camera wasn't aiming at the truck until it hit the house.
@mmX1995 you can see in between the 2 houses, there is wreckage. Maybe the right side of the house next to the one you thought was destroyed was partially destroyed.
feel so sorry for the guy in the tanker wonder what happend to the rest of the cars and trucks that got thrown off and i partially wish the truck crushed the girl to even then i bet shed find a way to scream
You can see a little mistake on the final part... You see people running down the right sidewalk 0:38, there is an explosion that instantly destroys everthing, but then you see that the explosion came from where if the houses are intact.
that little girl i would of knocked her out because she would of put me in danger
the stupid girl,the girl is the one reason i don't watch this film she puts everybody in so much danger screeming and crying ffs a normal father would of gave her sleeping pills
I hate that little girl so much.
