if you go to mecurytheatre.info and find the "War of the Worlds" click the mp3 and listen to it if you ever have the chance, it's truly amazingly done
in the broadcast they even say "there was no war, not anymore than there is war between man and ants!"
in 1898 they didn't really have technology to compare with tripods from mars
it's not supposed to be about a "war", but an apocalypse and even at the end, if you listen to the original broadcast with Orson Welles he says "sleign after all of mans greatest defenses had failed, by the humblest thing that god in his wisdom's had put upon this earth"
@theknightswhosayfrak I know what your saying, but you have to understand, H.G. Wells was friggin EPIC! He wrote about this, in amazing detail! From how they got here, their anatomy, their weaponry, what the future will hold for man (including some humans being kept as pets, food and labor)! He was born in 1866, and wrote about space invaders with heat rays! Thats bad ass right? But you know, it was more like an "the earth is ending!" movie.
also, i loved the reamke (june 29th realeased int heatres), its a very good movie, but i was only young when i saw the origional so i cant compare it, i can only rember sall parts only a couple of seconds long, so i cant judge
the reason they used flying saucers was because they couldnt afford to make all the moddels for the tripods, so they made simple flying ones and hung them from string instead of using fiddly leg mechanics, but it hads been done before so i dont know that it would make much difference in the cost
I actually saw the sequel to the "second" WoW movie. It was hillarious. :-)

@theknightswhosayfrak cause the book was written 1898.
