CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Ray (Tom Cruise) sees birds landing on a tripod and realizes the shield is down, and he tells a soldier so that the counterattack can begin.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
An ordinary man has to protect his children against alien invaders in this science fiction thriller, freely adapted from the classic story by H.G. Wells. Ray Ferrier (Tom Cruise) is a dockworker living in New Jersey, divorced from his first wife Mary Ann (Miranda Otto) and estranged from his two children Rachel and Robbie (Dakota Fanning and Justin Chatwin), of whom he has custody on weekends. On one such visitation, looking after the kids becomes a little more difficult when, after a series of strange lighting storms hit his neighborhood, Ray discovers that a fleet of death-ray robotic spaceships have emerged nearby, part of the first wave of an all-out alien invasion of the Earth. Transporting his children from New York to Boston in an attempt to find safety at Mary Ann's parents' house, Ray must learn to become the protector and provider he never was in marriage. Also starring Tim Robbins, War of the Worlds was directed by Steven Spielberg, who had been planning the project for years, but set it aside until a wave of "alien invasion" films (led by Independence Day) had run its course.

Due to the Javelin, those birds died. Rest in peace birds. You were the real heroes in this part. Without you no one would have realized that the shields were down.
nope the birds did fly away after the tripod moved to hard.
RIP birds. May your sacrifice be remembered forever.
they the real MVP in this movie
The birds weren't there when they started shooting though
The birds flew away after the tripod blew the horn
I like how the commander immediately utilized the information he was given.
unlike the military in almost EVERY film
In a weird way it’s kinda realistic his job is to save the civilians and he just realized the best opportunity
I really like how he screams "the javelin is the KEY!!!"
@@otaviocavalo4453 Really?
@@otaviocavalo4453 I thought He said "The Demolition Team!"
I love how the commander took the first opportunity he had to take down one of the tripods and immediately mobilized his men to open fire. It must've been a great morale booster for his men, seeing that without their shields, the tripods could be felled with ordinary munitions relatively easily.
I feel the same way.
The Javelin is no ordinary anti tank weapon lol
@@thesubigang4291 i think they actually got the JAV wrong. it would lunch from the tube fire straight up and hit the target from above
@@Truck_personOnly from long distances. That wouldn’t be necessary in this scenario.
@@Truck_personIt can do top attacks and direct attacks.
1:20 He actually looked back before shooting to check that nobody is in the backfire. Nice detail!

@@marcusstonito2833 I think it was because they used actual servicemen for these scenes, after all they got the army involved in filming
@@ancaplanaoriginal5303 and Marines, but yeah, he even calls it out that they were clear from the rear.
Before anyone chimes in... Yes, even the Javelin has back blast, it's lessoned compared to other ATHMs, but still there
I feel bad for that one guy who got crushed. He was so close to surviving.
Right, he survived the attack and then gets killed by being crushed
Lt.SnubSnub Reviews which one?
2:00
yeah. but he was stupid
bringabongalong1 the one when it fell down
Those birds were the real heroes.
+Gamer YTP actually germs did it XD

+Cat woman :p
+Gamer YTP Morgan Freeman is the real hero
+Gamer YTP Martians ended up eating crow--or was it the other way around?
The CGI on this movie is Top Tier.
The Tripod looks way too real in almost all the scene. It's almost hard to tell that it's CGI.
And the detail of the Tripod's horn being heavily distorted as a sign that it was severely malfunctioning was also great.
it was malfunctioning? i thought it only sounded like that because it was up close
@@TheFlopped2979 Yes, it was malfunctioning.
That distorted horn sounds amazing. The bass in it is just... L O V E L Y .
More than just that. Compare the tripod in this scene to the beginning of the movie. That thing was steady, solid, powerful, immovable. Ready for anything. This one? Somethings clearly wrong with it. It’s off balance the entire time. Stumbling. Taking precious time to start blasting the soldiers once they line up with the javelin, and of course the horn. All of that, and the shield being down means one of two things, or both: the tripod was failing, or the aliens were beginning to show strong signs of the various illnesses that earth had to offer them.
Incredible bits of detail there.
@@antonradke5943 my favorite little detail here is when the tripod’s heat rays fail as it turns to look at the soldiers. Normally the crescent-shaped beam emitters are held in a stable and vertically upright position and shine bright blue just before they fire, but here you can notice them shining and blinking and going dark again whilst the tripod can’t even hold them in place correctly. It’s just the fact that they bothered with such tiny little details throughout the whole film that start adding up
1:19 love that detail where the tripod tries to fire it's heat rays but does not work, so he looks at it in confusion lol
"Really? We're about to die and you choose now?"
I swear i saw this movie 7373837373 times and never noticed that before, good eye
@@travissgrey That would mean you have spent 1,627,407 years watching this movie.....How did you deal with the girls screaming so much?
@@kriegertechpriest7011 LMFAO that comment made my day
Actually, I think it was more getting into a bracing position getting ready to fire and charging up for a shot.... Only... It didn't get the chance because it received a gift from Ratheon
2:00 bottom right. The guy flips over the car and rolls onto the ground, ultimately getting crushed by the falling tripod.
Good going. You ALMOST survived the apocalypse.
+Mowgli ManCubs He just had his first ever experience of what Dark Soul is like.

I died
that would be me :p almost a survivor
'almost'
Bro imagine if they decided to rise in the medieval times, soon as they rise from the ground and takes a couple breathes and imediatly gets sick
Bubonic plague: *allow me to introduce myself*
Yeah those 1g towers with bubonic plague
Breaths
imagine if they rised today, dead in 2 hours
@don't care The earths population right now is 7.8 billion how the hell did you get 5.5 billion?
I just realized rewatching this movie that during the Ferry sequence and after one of the Tripods are standing over the hills after the birds fly towards them, the birds never land on it and only circle above it because of the shield.
Nice attention to detail.
"Bring out the Javelin!" hits differently today.
😂😂😂 so true!
I was checking to see if someone had said this.
When I heard "Load the Gustav?" i started thinking "is the 21st century US military gonna break out their German WWII 80cm Railway gun to fire at the tripods?" Good thing it will take 1.5 hours to load and longer to reposition.
@@isanedits a Swedish anti-tank weapon

What is more loud? The tripod horn or Rachel screaming her lungs out?
Rachel screaming 51% of the movie.
( ) Tripod's horn
(x) Rachel screaming her lungs out
SHUT UP RACHEL
Honestly I think that’s what slowly killed the aliens
@@whatsgoingon07 she could probably kill those Martians in 'Mars Attacks'.
I feel bad for those people who couldn't avoid the falling Tripod.
gameaddict51 they were fucking stupid
Did any one notice that those people actually fell into the path of falling tripod? In an attempt to escape from it.
Nolan White And by that I meant to say ran into its path as it fell.
It's them or humanity my friend
Ethan Bulger that doesnt even make sense
Always loved how they portrayed the military in this one. Clearly fighting a losing battle - but also bravely doing their goddam jobs like professionals. Too many movies portray the military as incompetent useless fools. I liked that as soon as that commander figured out they could have an advantage and neutralize a threat he acted immediately. Proved he actually deserves to be commander. It's so immersion-killing when there are NO representations of this in disaster movies when it is actually their jobs.
Yeah. You have to respect the institution because its made of us.
Disrespect the military, disrespect us all.
Every. Single. Modern. Godzilla film.
Yeah I love the immersion when the military is actually competent but simply outnumbered or outgunned, but they do their jobs to the very end anyway.
Real soldiers
Same thing Hollywood does with horror movies, where the main characters make idiot choices...then suffer the consequences.
Far more interesting when the characters make sound, sensible choices...and still get f**ked up. Like Train to Busan.
Imagine if He was wrong about those shields and only birds could get through. Those soilders would be so annoyed.
They'd be vaporized before they get annoyed.
It was demonstrated in the post-basement scene (Rachel's abduction) that the shields can be bypassed by slow-moving objects such as humans on foot. So Ray's bird thing was a non-starter; he and the soldiers just got lucky that his false logic happened to coincide with a real tech problem, but they certainly were not identifying the correct evidence for it.
It's a fluke, basically.
(And flukes are tiny parasitic creatures wot cause sickness in bigger animals too, so there's another movie thematic link which still doesn't mean Ray had drawn the correct conclusion by the correct logic path).
Disappointing version of a story that will *never* be told authentically.
Lies again? NS TUSHY
@Andrew Givens So the logic is the same as with Dune's shields. Makes sense, if a shield is impenetrable, you'll asphyxiate.
@@KrillLiberator shields allowing slow objects through them happens in Independence Day too: there's a scene in which David (Jeff Goldblum) places a Coke can on the captured alien craft with his bare hand, and just then one of the characters tries to shoot that can, which is then protected by the shield. However, if that were the case it would be easy to release balloons with C4's attached to them so they stick to the alien vehicles and then BOOM!!
That's the army's secret weapon. Birds specially trained to disable enemy shields. Ever heard of Seal Team 6? They've got nothing on Crow Team 6! 💪
KesumaofEO the aliens were sick.... disabling the sheild sorry bud
@@Crankiebox99 this is the most braindead creature I have seen by far

That girl is an amazing actor. Probably never seen such a natural and realistic representation of a child reacting to traumatic events.
Apparently a lot of people hated her character because they thought she was super annoying, but that's literally EXACTLY how a child would act in these situations. They're basically helpless
@@lauvasquez8030 I mean, yes, you're right, but at the same time, in a movie about aliens invading the earth and the possible destruction of the human race, a kid acting like a kid is pretty low on my list of things I want the movie to focus on. Which is why her character was so hated.
War of the worlds was always meant to show realistic events. No heroic moments, or encouraging speeches.
@@magmat0585 true, which is why fiction doesn’t have to be too realistic
@@DragonKhy Spielberg made this movie as realistic as possible

NEXUS: The Jupiter Incident in a nutshell
Humans: *Light 'em up!*
Well, as McKay pointed out in Stargate Atlantis, shields are for emergency use only. You use them when you're expecting to take fire, which the aliens had been for several days from fighters making harassment attacks and small units occasionally chucking rockets at them. By this point, they were likely out of power as it was, and here comes *another* small unit chucking rockets....
What I love about this scene is how the birds are almost calling out to the humans to take action. As If the two species we’re working together to save their world.
The birds should be flying away from them since birds dont like loud noises.
Never thought of it that way. That's deep AF man
I think the birds smell dead squid inside the tripod

They're 10 thousand years old not 1 million.
I've always felt sorry for those guys you see rolling over the car at 2:01 they survived the entire invasion just to be crushed by a dead tripod in the last few minutes of the film...
its possible those guys survived i mean it is a movie
I dunno, they got pretty trampled
i find it strange you don't see them after the tripod pushes them out the way
they roll over the car and then the car, being pushed by the tripod pushes the people out of the view of the camera... or under the tripod.
yeah i know what i mean is when the alien crawls out round there the pepole vanished

@@reisdwYou know Javelins have destroyed armored vehicles before, right?
"The Javelin is the key, load the gustav, its gotta be a top kill"
Its cool that thr script writers know what they are talking about in this scene, that wasnt bs. You can see both javelin and carl gustav manpads being used to bring down the tripods. And also the javelin has a top attack mode usually used against tanks, hence what he said. Pretty cool stuff
I think he says "its gonna be a tough kill". CZcams CC matches up with that too. None of the javelins use top attack mode in this scene, all direct attack.

OperatorHonored attention, you have been kicked from server for using invincibility cheat
I really like that they introduced the shield again (like in the 1953 movie). The reason why they included shields is pretty obvious: when the book was written, there were no airplanes nor missiles. You would need a good ass canyon in order to take that shit down. If the invasion as described in the book happened today, the aliens wouldn't last a week.
Theyd pick up every disease known to man but ironically die of covid first.
They wouldn’t last a minute they would breath and die
had they been using OG tripods, infantry platoons with anti-tank weapons would have downed them quickly
They Aliens always knew what they're dealing with before Invading. Each time period has a version to match Earth's weapons. Only constant is they never accounted for the invisible threat.
Actually, the book was completely unrealistic. They had some damn good artillery in the 1890s, when the book was set. If the aliens had no force-fields they could have blasted them to pieces. H.G.Wells was a non-military middle-class intellectual who had NO idea about military technology. Almost everything he imagined in his science-fiction books was unrealistic. George Orwell did a very good take-down of him.
Rachael is that one kid that you hear outside in elementary school that keeps screaming for no reason.
Yeah, cause killer tripods are a Bad reason yo scream
@@rapatacush3 she's annoying. She just is. She doesn't beed to exist in this movie. No one likes her character. She would learn to shutup if it had been happening for so long
I agree I can't rewatch the film because I can't stand her screaming that's how bad she is. At the end I was hating her character.

Imagine surviving an entire alien invasion, living to tell the story of how it was and then getting ran over by one after it dies.
Rule#1: Hide until it's over. Don't run while the military is firing missiles.
"Later when their bodies were examined in the laboratories, it was found that they were killed by the putrefactive and disease bacteria against which their systems were unprepared. . . slain, after all man's defenses had failed, by the humblest thing that God in His wisdom put upon this earth."

this isn't a Christian movie your bible says nothing about alien life so if alien life
invaded us and tried to kill us your god wouldn't do anything about it because it
would of proven your god as a myth
kelly wilson whitehead This is just a quote but I'll point out three things:
First: he's not MY God, he's OUR God whether you believe in him or not but I assure you he is real.
Second: No the bible doesn't say anything about alien life but it does tell us that with God's help we can save ourselves from harm.
Third: I suggest you take a refresher course in third grade english so you can learn how to use proper grammar and syntax.

From Russian Tanks to Alien Tripods the Javelin, Gustav, and Nlaw can get it done!
It's a tried and tested weapon of war, if it can take down aliens it can take down puny Russian tanks
Yes, but Javelin could not penetrate the armor of the Soviet tank)
@@darkfire7048 It did
I love this little change that when the shields are off, the Tripos are easy prey. This invasion is actually pretty damn rudimentary and far too ''rough'' from a strategy POV, the martians are just rushing B with over reliance on their shields. They have no air support, no infantry, no recon, no artillery, not even an HQ or something to fall back. They were straight up thinking the shields would be enough to conquer the planet.
The reason most every modern take on War of the Worlds since the 1953 movie is because the producer actually talked to military reps who read the book, who told him that Earths military would have no trouble handling an invasion with nukes and modern weaponry. Hence, adding the shields.
@@dylanmckenzie8566 Yeah, as crude as our weapons might be physics and chemistry are mean SoBs, we literally have to invision the impossible (heat rays and energy shields) in order to set up a fantastical foe with which to face.
Though I feel that dding the shields meant we missed the sense in the book where humanity fights back only for the martians to adapt (black smoke launchers would have been terrifying).
"Get on the wire, tell them how to bring those sons of bitches down."
Lmfao!!
Independence Day =D
This actually shows that if the aliens didn't have shields, it would be a pretty equal fight.
We would’ve pushed them back into space
Their tripods are only about as armored as a modern tank, maybe less. Without the nigh-invincible force shields human armies would defeat the invasion, no doubt.

We blew the birds up with the missiles we shot at the Tripods
What Nameless said.
The tripods were coated in atomized human flesh and blood. They just wanted a bite.
I love how different the tripod sound is in this scene.
It's gone from "Run you filth! Your end is nigh! 😈👽" to "Please... Is there... anyone else... alive?!? 😷💀"
actually i think it was sending a distress signal or crying out in pain.
The crew probably realized their shields were dropped and that they were too sick to maneuver the tripod through all the buildings away from the increasingly swarming soldiers. I think the horn blast was a desperate call for help to any tripods still in the area that could fight. Tripods are downright fragile without shields and I think that the crew was acutely aware how dangerously vulnerable they were at that point.
Ok now I feel bad for em
@@JakvsMetalheads999 They're not vulnerable though, This one got hit with a ton of Javelins and it looked like the armor took it pretty well. even after it crashes through the building it's mostly intact. I think it went down because it was sick and being hit consecutive times threw it off balance. Of course more Javelins would kill it eventually, but it's still quite tanky seemingly
@@Crimson34533 There might have been no major external damage, that makes it seem like the armor just tanked the shots, but knowing a thing or two about how AT weapons work against armor I can assure you, that thing got wrecked, without a doubt
Seeing this as a soldier who has deployed twice and almost a decade in the army, this gives me chills and makes me proud at the same time.
Thank you for your service!! 😊
The servicemen were actual servicemen and, according to Criuse, some were on their way to Iraq.
The Martians gonna start building cope cages on top of their tripods lmao
At the end, in the tunnel when Rachel starts screaming, it's like a different kind of scream. Like the explosions and such triggered PTSD or something.
Girl's gonna need a hella amount of therapy after this is done. People complain about her screaming but at that age that reaction is to be expected. First time those horns went off I wanted to scream.

Jeff Goldblum: Uh...I gave it a cold
Yes, Ebola actually saved us.
DOO YU NO DE WAE
Uganda Knuckles is dead
WHAT HOW
Plot twist 2nd epidemic plague happened after the tripods falling, all the infected blood went somewhere right?
Correction: the common cold saved us.
Alien1: quick! Dodge the missiles!
*missiles hit ship*
Alien1: I SAID DODGE IT YOU CRAPHEAD!
Alien2: ;__;
Alien 3: f*** my life *BLAAAAM!!!* crashing noises
Alien 4:HE SAID FUCKING DOGE NOW WERE ALL GONNA DIE I CANT DIE I HAVE A WIFE AND KIDS
Alien 4: we should of brought disinfectant...
Alien 5 Ayy Lmao
Alien 6: Anyone got some Tylenol?
These Alien ships are built like Russian T-72 tanks lol
The presence of the birds -- by the sound effect they are crows, scavengers -- is a sign that the smell of death is already coming from the tripod. To them it resembles the carrion they feed off of regularly.
I love the broken sound to the trumpet sound of the tripod, it really added to the reality that the tripods were done for.
I love the sound that the trypod makes
It strongly reminds me of the Reapers in Mass Effect.
Also: Tripod
Saint Javelin indeed.
Javelin: works on Russian tanks, works on alien ships.
1:17
Alien1: thay will shoot at us should we try to dodge it?
Alien2 : well it dosent matter we have shields ..
Alien1: it seems we have a problem .
Alien2: What is it?
Alien1: it says Shield.exe unfortunately stopped working .
Alien2: shit
BOOM
y u do dis fun fact the aliens had windows xp
y u do dis oh and: exe lights wont respond
The tripod noises are cool
Indeed
One of my all time favorite movies.
Notice that even the sound the tripod makes is different, it seems “sick” too. Those bacteria were doing a fine job! 😂
This was no bacteria it was Covid.
I know it's a movie, but damn I love the military. The definition of bravery.
In this scene they used real military. Kind of like the training actors got in Saving Pvt. Ryan
Since there wasn't time to train actors they used the real thing
@@stevegust2100 Have to love it
Dozens of soldiers aiming guns and keeping their eyes on the tripod: “OMG, what do we do?!”
Tom Cruise as a lone civillian: “LOoK aT thE GodDaMN BIrDs!!!!”
That's the problem with inventing shields. You get so comfortable with them that you disregard having armor for backup.
well, it took 4 or 5 javelin hits, that thing is stronger than an MBT...
@@mariosebastiani3214 And that was with it already having issues. At top form that thing would have withstood a couple direct hits wo a shield and wiped out the attackers.
Wonder if the Humans will try to reverse engineer the shield technology. Imagine what human can do with just shield tech...
Sadly humans would probably turn such tech like that on one another.
Dakota is such a good actress omg she really acted like how a child would act in a situation like this.
The way that tripod wobbles and fails to fire it's weapons is similar to how I act after suddenly deciding to do work at 4 am in the morning.
"The Javelins the key!"
-A Ukranian
Imagine a space race so advanced that forgets to analyze environmental details and hazards in an alien planet before a full scale invasion ROFL
RIP the action roll guy. He was the real MVP.
Regret... regret... reget... Dear humanity... We regret being alien bastards... We regret coming to Earth... And we most defiantly regret the corps just blow up our raggedy-ass Tripod! Ooh rah!
***** Halo 2 actually. Because that line is hilarious.
***** 21st century US military vs Imperial Stormtroopers... Advice for Stormtroppers: Put your head between your knees and kiss your ass good bye.
***** im not sure small arms could penetrate their armor lol. Explosives and perhaps a 50 Cal Armor Piercing Round could probably do the trick though.
Jonas Whitt The M-16A2 has t he M203, as add on... www.colt.com/Catalog Military/Products/ColtM20340mmGrenadeLauncher.aspx Plus unit tactics, and hitting weak points in armor... US victory. A .50 sniper round/machine gun round vs stormtroopers = US overkill victory.
***** Practically every single rifle the marines and the army uses has a grenade launcher, however if they miss, then they are boned as they will have to open up their ammo pouch, grab a grenade and insert it into the rifle allowing the storm trooper to shoot them with the blaster.
Aliens: eats air
Also aliens: I don’t feel so good-
When one sees such cinema, what can one think but ... Tom Cruise !!!
LOOK AT THE FUCKING BIRDS!!!!!! lol thats the best
Except it was "LOOK AT THE GODDAMNED BIRDS".
+Arbeedubya I know I fucked as soon as I rewatched it
anyone else notice that at 1:56 there's about 5 perfectly safe people who come running from of screen at the left just to run in the way of the falling tripod and all but one get crushed. one even tries to jump and roll over a car to get crushed under it and the tripod
This is something which has annoyed me ever since I first saw the movie way back in 2005. Innocent civilians are killed, and for what reason? The tripod is obviously dysfunctional and no longer represents a threat, so why bring it down in the first place?
ken smit Hostile aliens with near impenetrable machines invade earth and kill a large percentage of the human race and the military remnants encounter one that's vulnerable. Sure it's swaying around and appears wounded, but it still represents a major threat.
HA! Thanks for pointing this out. I didn't catch it the first time I watched the movie, but then, I'm not paid six figures to make sure a film scene makes sense. Just plain sloppy, to let a detail like that slip by in a movie with a budget almost as big as the national deficit...
XD or maybe they noticed and where like'ahh screw it. No one wil notice a thing'
Yeah true
I can't stop imagining a martian with a running nose, sore throat, struggling to operate the tripod, when his superior comes and asks:
"Did you remember to recharge the shields?"
"What?" - gets hit by the javelin - "Oh no..."
That's what Covid does to you.
This was honestly such a good movie and this scene in particular is one of my favorites honestly
feel bad for that guy who flipped over the car and got hit when the Tripod fell
+Christian Jefferson He survived *all that* just to be crushed by a tripod ;-;
I wonder why he didn't just run to the side
Why would aliens try to kill us? We have bacon! And Nutella! And the internet!
they want out nutella for themselves. greedy bastards
NOT THE NUTELLA! D:
And also they want all the bacon for themselves! And that is what makes humanity fight on! Because of BACON
We must save the bacon !
liam smalley OH HELL NO!! that's it, they've cross the line.. nobody takes OUR BACON away!!!
I always wondered about the shields in this film, the shield is like a protective dome structure, but there is a weak point, the ground.
If you placed a bunch of land mines in front of these things, or hidden troops with c4/rocket launchers, wouldn't those be able to at least take out the feet/legs, causing it to come crashing down.
Probably because due to cutting off communications in the areas they were active in meant that no one could really effectively coordinate. Land mines would be just as dangerous to civilians and other troops in the area as they might be to the Tripod.
You would also need to know where they were going to pass, due to their long stride they might just end up stepping over any mines, and even with a field of them they might just wander off elsewhere because there are no humans in that area.
Hidden troops probably wouldn't work as it's doubtful a human body can physically pass through the shield. The birds at the end landing on the tripod was indicative of its Shields being down. Meaning with the shield up, even small animals like them couldn't penetrate the active barrier. This also probably means mines wouldn't be able to get through either. as even though the shield ends at the ground it does seem to conform to it.
Which is why the only real sure fire method of killing one before the infection took root was via potentially sacrificing yourself with an explosive when the machine pulls you inside to drain you of your blood.
@@Tazkar In H. G Well's original text, one of the last defences employed (other than the ironclads at sea) is earthworks and demolition mines, and it's acknowledged as a desperate measure due pretty much to this fact - no guarantee whatsoever that they would be stepped on. And in that version, they had no shields to begin with
Tom Cruise: NO SHIELDS!
Sgt. Foley: RAMIREZ! Grab that javelin and shoot those tripods!!!
