  • Going to this in December, can't wait! <3

  • Great Show......Please Come back on Tour !

  • This needs to be released in America!!

  • DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THERE IS A DVD VERSION WITH THE NEW CAST FEATURING Jason Donovan, Rhydian, AND Liz McClarnon? cause this is what I went to see in December 2010 in nottingham and the previous cast shown on this video are in the current dvd's out now

  • The best musical ever We Will Rock You is second though. Best music ever! Listen to it all the time.

  • GOOD!

  • Wonder if anyone could make a musical version of M. Night Shyamalan's 'Signs'? Actually on second thoughts that might not be a very good idea.

  • Eeeep seeing this in brighton on friday for the third time :)

  • can i stil buy the dvd som wear ??

  • It the eve of war not the eve of the war!

  • @MrGalaxyPictures .. I think you will find it is actually called The eve of the War.. I have the vinyl and cd .. it says The eve of the War on both, check it out.

    I watched the live show last night in Newcastle Metro Arena and it is worth every penny.. it just sounds like the original soundtrack - nothing much changed, Justin Hayward sings exactly the same as he did.. the Orchestra and conductor have mastered it perfectly.. and the graphics are excellent.

    Go and watch it - you will love it.

  • @HellzDelight I saw it last night at the newcastle arena it was awsome wasn't it?!

  • @MrGalaxyPictures ... its a small world !.. fancy you being a fellow Geordie and seeing the same show as I just commented about - " the chances of anything coming from Mars " or even the chances of seeing the same show lol !

    Aye, it was an experinence mate.

  • the latest dvd would have been better if they had done it as it was supposed to have been done with the orginal music

  • First time I heard this,my friend & I were at a buddy's cabin way outside of town. It's after sunset and was pitch black outside. We lit lanterns, turned them low, smoked two joints of potent hashish, and sat back and put this on loud. From the first words, "No one would have believed", right to the very end, we sat there totally mesmerized by the music and story, and so fucking wired that if someone would have moved, we'd have shit ourselves. We puffed all night and I'm not sure I'm back yet.

  • i have no worries, i'm an ally of martians XD

  • WANT!!

  • ok mum order the music from hmv so she getting it torromow or later on in the day until it will ring hmv up

  • I need to see this.

  • This is brilliant !!!

    Btw do you guys know that Jason Donovan is going to be in The Musical Version of The Wars of The Worlds. Its just been announced. I found it out, on the war of the world website: the war of the worlds. com

  • nice

  • wish this would come over to the US. I love the music.

  • its so good live :)

  • you gotta try the PC game it has the music, and dialog and the martian machines look the same as this. it is a RTS type of game

  • Thought the movie actually sucked big time. Totally let down and should have been set in Victorian England. Cruise was terrible but the film was no better.

    This adaption for a stage setting is perfect and just wish it makes it over to Mexico, but i'm not holding my breath.

  • Victorian England would have been better - would highlight the gulf between our technology and the Martian's

  • What else did you expect from Spielberg.

  • i am so gettin this. yay

  • i wish i had the DVD , a big screen projector,a quadraphonic sound system and a bag of weed

  • amen!

  • Or enough weed to make you think you had all the other things.

  • let me geuss...UK release only......

    son of a biscuit.

  • amazon?

    ....

  • I can only find region 2 (or whatever it is for Uk and NOT us). I need an all region player.

  • does anybody else think the Burton stuff is more than a little creepy?

  • best music ever

  • Universal?

  • got almost all of the war of the worlds: The musical DVD, CD the movie and I got the original from '20.

  • Yeah, about the movie - TWOTW is set in ENGLAND! Not the US, =P Also, it didn't have any of the characters in it - like the Thunderchild! I loved Thunderchild. =P

    The movie was alright, but I thought it was disappointing.

    I lvoed WOTW Live, it was the best live event I've ever seen - I'm going back to see it again in 2009, can't wait!

  • Simply Epic is an understatment.. its one, if the not the best live show thats ever been shown....

    as far as speilberg is concerned, hes american, so would u expect any better ?

    anyways jeff wayne is officially planning a new CGI version of the film, apparently made by the same ppl who did final fantasy a few years back and its going to be based on the book !!!!

  • Is that EVER coming out? I've been anticipating Jeff's CGI version forever, and when I've looked at the Jeff Wayne WotW website there seems to be many reasons why it's not finished yet. Mainly because of touring with this live production.

  • i think that was most wrong about spielbergs version was setting it in modern times. So done. would have been so interesting if they set it in victorian england.

  • I would have agreed with you until fairly recently. The problem with Spielberg's version, as far as I can make out, isn't one of setting. The problem is that it's a Tom Cruise vehicle and not much of the tone of the book has been preserved. The story itself can be set in different times and places and still be good -- take the Orson Welles / Harold Koch version from the 1930s, for example. But... yes. I'd love to see a good version in its original setting.

  • steven spielbergs version is gd but didnt have alot of things inthe musical like thunderchild that wouldve been gd on the film

  • I'm surprised he didn't slip a reference in from the album actually...it's the kind of insider joke he does...

  • I was fortunate enough to see this down in Brighton in late 2007, and have to say it was one of the most impressive shows I have seen!

  • I have this DVD if you wish a copy - if not HMV website you can order this

  • Where can I order the DVD from? I live in the states...and grew up listening to WOTW record.

  • im seeing it at the O2 arena london!

  • i saw that yesterday it was totally epic lol but the first half owned the second half...

  • has anyone seen their epac. its free and theyve put all the best clips from the dvd??!!so cool reccomend ;p!!!!

  • I saw the show on Monday down in Bournemouth UK, it was fantastic, enjoyed every minute of it, especially the end of the 1st half ("now Earth belonged to the Martians") where a massive crescendo just made your whole body shake. It was incredible (and VERY loud!!!!)

  • I really want that DVD! I saw this on pay-per-view, and though "The Face" was pretty freaky (wasn't even an animated face of Richard Burton, they used some other guy,) It was pretty cool. Too bad they don't have any live shows where I am in America.

    But hey Moody Blues fans, is that Gordon Marshall (one of the drummers for the Moody Blues) on 1:19? I think it is! Go Gordon!

  • i watched it in manchester- 9/12/07 it was AMAZING i agree the cd is good but nothing beats the live version

  • sorry saw it last weekend, in manchester arena, its okay but, the original record and cd was better, i was a little disappointed i must admit, i was expecting something brilliant and it was bordering on mediocre, oh and the hologram, wasnt

  • glad you enjoyed it muffinisis... each to their own eh?

  • Roll on tonight at the odyssey!!!!

  • I'm getting all excited now!!!!LOL.

  • Saw the show in Dublin last year....going to Belfast tonight

  • im seeing it tonight in the odyssey arena

  • You WILL enjoy it...have a great night.

  • Im going to the odyssey tonight too....can't wait!!!

  • Im Seeing It In The Brighton Centere

  • I'm going to be seeing this in Aberdeen on the 4th of December - I've been listening to it since I was too little to recall the first time I heard it. It's going to be beyond fantastic to see it live!

  • I live in the US and have been looking for a copy of the DVD for my dad. I haven't been able to find it for Region 1. Does anyone know where I can find it, and if not does anyone have a release date for it in the states?

  • This Chrismas, children watch pantos, but we watch alien invasions!!!

  • I'm seeing it in cardiff! 12th december! truely brillant music!!! and 2 top it off, they got a tripod on stage!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I'm seeing this in Bournemouth in December. I can't wait. UUUUUUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

  • Going to see it in Nottingham in December and am really looking forward to it! The DVD is superb!

  • I saw it last night at AUCKLANDS VECTOR ARENA. This concert totally blew me away. I had a good of the floor to the left of the stage. So i got some good pic's and a little video. This is one hell of a stage show. Designed by the guy who done PINK FLOYDS.

  • saw 2nd show Melb

    absolutely awesome

    packed house !

  • saw it in Sydney on wednesday.

    Blew me away completely.

    Also - MICHAEL FALZON!

  • MICHAEL ROCKS! GET HIS EP FROM HIS WEBSITE!

    Is it just me or is it really annoying that we can never get Australian Cast recordings anymore?

    Glad you all liked it.

  • i am going tomorrow night in sydney.........!!!!!!

    cant beleive there is still tickets availiable, damn us australians are so uncultured!!!!

  • I saw it last night in Perth as well. Was VERY GOOD. The music was sensational!

  • I might be going to see it this year, Can not wait.

  • I watched it live last night in Perth!

    It was fantastic!!!!

    Very true to the album :)

  • Not really the same without Phil Lynott

  • very true... and what do you suggest they do... dig him up?

  • the hologram wasnt a hologram is what i am saying, it was on a flat screen with floaty bits of plastic from where i sat, and i still say the original record was the best vocally

  • well a studio produced album is going to win every time over a live performance isn't it? it wouldn't go down very well at a concert if they kept stopping and played the same bit over and over again till it sounded perfect. a live performance is the true test - warts and all

  • ahhhhhhh my dad use to tease my with the music when i was a kid and ever since it still freaks me out!!! But the stage show does look good!

  • I've watched this DVD about 100 times, it's well cool! I'm going watching it live in December too! Awesome! Awesome to the max!

  • I had this on vinyl!

  • This is an amazing work that holds up, and to see the likes of Justin Hayward in this DVD with such a ensemble...WOW!

  • go to google and search dark horse and war of the worlds for the War Of The Worlds eComic

    its really something i reckon

  • Im getting tickets for Perth! it seems everyone's daddy played this to them when they were young, look at all the other videos' comments

  • im going to see it in Auckland in sept cant wait so much better than that american shit

  • Yep,Auckland sold out in about 5 hours (decent seats anyway ).So a second show was scheduled,and has nearly sold out in 2 weeks.Counting down.......
