Looks pretty neat,,, anyone know any more about this? Website only got the pics atm



Given a choice between listening to Jeff Wayne's album and watching the Spielberg disaster, guess which one I'd choose?

Would be be Jeff Wayne's one????? I prefer it:)

im pretty old at nearly 36, but can remmeber the soundtrack back in the

70's....great, still is

i saw the spielberg movie on dvd not long ago...bored me shitless, only good thing in it was the Mustang at the start....

I actually really liked the Martian war machines, they were 'right' - no wheels, axles, etc, all sliding plates - they even showed the Martians in the cellar puzzled over the bicycle wheel.

Certain images were good - the burning train was excellent, and the tripods appearing over the hill at the ferryport was just perfect.

But, yeah, overall, basically... hmm...

I preferred Happy Feet :-)

Except when the train passed through the crossing there was absolutely no reaction from the large crowd on either side, as if they see a burning train hurtle through a crossing every day of the week.

It's like what Elvis Mitchell said about King Kong--Jackson was so busy whipping up the bugs that he forgot to make a movie. I know that all the time I was hoping to see the stars sitting in a basement TALKING and TALKING and TALKING instead of that boring action crap.

Must have been the major star as leading man.

It was set in New Jersey, wasn't it?
