@richiemayne Imagine how I felt hearing the ending as a kid in 1978 :O ;)

New version out in June this year! I'm sure everyone who loved the 1978 record as a young child, who are young adults now, will buy it!

and the coda to a great work, thx

a proper adaptation sans hollywood and story based would be amazing. but, alas, there's no way anyone would pick it up. maybe it'd be a great miniseries but that still won't happen. truth is people are way too ignorant about real wars a century or so back let alone alien wars. spielberg had the ball and dropped it. still at least he made that crappy fourth indiana jones movie instead of doing a classic that people would've enjoyed and bought on the numerous formats we keep 'needing to'...

@Carnage1235 I hear you man, don't know why that seems to be beyond the capability of modern cinema

@69davyd And yet they're making a faithful adaptation of "John Carter of Mars."

@Sindri44 I realise this was 10 months ago, but did you say France? We had an empire that spanned every continent sure, but be aware there were still other powerful nations with empires of their own, France being included in this - we've never owned France :P

@Carnage1235 because no-one in hollywood has theballs to do it, in the book you get the small details of their machinery, their biology, they're food source, the birth of one on earth, remember this story was written at a time when Darwinian Theory was brand new, in a contemporary story the fantasy element of a "Martian Invasion" would fly in the face of current scientific knowledge, and may be too insulting to a "Modern" way of thinking.

please don't post childish anti-american sentiments on a video of the war of the worlds, it's far to awesome to sully with insults and pettiness.
