    War Of The Worlds - #WOTW ☄️
    This is a story of ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances - but they are more than just victims in a brutal war.
    When astronomers detect a transmission from another galaxy, it is definitive proof of intelligent extra-terrestrial life. The world’s population waits for further contact with bated breath. They do not have to wait long. Within days, mankind is all but wiped out by a devastating attack; pockets of humanity are left in an eerily deserted world.
    As aliens hunt and kill those left alive, the survivors ask a burning question - who are these attackers and why are they hell-bent on our destruction? Emotional, cinematic and rooted in character, it is a unique marriage of human drama and the best science fiction. We will come to realise the alien’s savage attack on earth is not arbitrary; its seeds are being sown before our very eyes.
    Set in present-day Europe, War Of The Worlds is a multi-faceted series, written and created by the #BAFTA award winner #HowardOverman (#Misfits, #Merlin, #Crazyhead) based on the timeless story by H. G. Wells. It is being Executive Produced by Johnny Caaps, Julian Murphy, and Howard Overman through their company; Urban Myth Films.

      @WITMONSTER RACING Not really, they could have shown at least a vague hint of the threat. This trailer was a load of people running away from a barely audible and uninteresting noise and saying they were going to die for no reason. It would've been much more effective to show the calm before the storm, giving us a very superficial introduction to the lives of a few main characters followed by a genuinely unsettling sign at the end of the trailer with a hint of something alien. This would actually draw us in, instead of an absolutely pointless montage of scared strangers.

      Exactly, and it actually was really good in my opinion. I mean, it wasn’t as good as the Tom Cruise one but definitely better the 20th century original film. This one had such a great feel for the 1912 atmosphere and how things would’ve works back then if said situation would’ve happened. I honestly don’t understand why more people don’t give it a higher score. ‘Because it didn’t have as many fights and explosions and they’d have liked?’ Well tough. If Americans had done it they would’ve just gone well overboard AAAALL OVER AGAIN, just like with Independence Day 2. I mean that film was actually pretty good too but still you get my point.

      The tripods in the 2005 adaptation were good, and it had Tom Cruise. That one understood what people wanted to see in a War Of The Worlds movie (even if it was a limited amount). If this one had that and extra 'war' scenes then it'll be good imo.

      Oh, you mean the one where they had to spoon-feed the audience the message that the novel was anti-colonial by having a five minute lecture on imperialism in front of a black child. (Neither of which were in the book). Managing to be condescending and tokenistic while pretending to be the opposite. HG Wells was more subtle at least.

    Nobody has ever improved this story, in any significant way as far as I am aware.
    All that's needed is for the original story in its original setting and time to be lovingly brought to the big screen complete with tripods, (tripods with 3 legs, you'd think it wouldn't need specifying but, well... ).
    There should be plucky Britshers complete with, new fangled Lee Enfield Rifles, red coats, pith helmets filling the vital role of 'Puny Earthmen'. At Some point someone needs to shout; "our weapons are useless", in a nod to all B movies. Of course everybodies favourate torpedo ram, HMS Thunderchild striking a blow for Queen and Country must be a jaw dropping set piece confrontation.
    No reboots, no Mary Sue characters, no bold re-imaging, no unexpected plot twist, no set up for a sequal, no gender swapped characters, no examination of LGBTQ issues (the aliens will kill anyone regardless of such concerns), no cringe worthy use of diverse cast full of people from other countries and races who wouldn't have been there at the time for the sake of 'sending a message,' no alternative universe, no jarring use of modern hipster speech in the dialogue, no all femal cast.
    Why is it that Hollywood repeatedly manages to not make that movie?

    by intelligences that inhabited the timeless worlds of space.
    No one could have dreamed we were being scrutinized
    as someone with a microscope studies creatures
    that swarm and multiply in a drop of water.
    Few men even considered the possibility of life on other planets
    and yet, across the gulf of space
    minds immeasurably superior to ours
    regarded this Earth with envious eyes,
    and slowly and surely
    they drew their plans against us.
