Re: The War Of The Worlds
I gave it a pass. I've seen too many attempts at the story and I'd rather just read the book now.

Re: The War Of The Worlds
Well that was disappointing. I have no idea what they thought they were doing with last night’s episode. They span about 15 minutes of story into 60 minutes, the CGI was ropey and I’m almost certain there were still FX missing.
Having looked forward to this ever since it was announced (two years ago I think?) ... disappointing. |
Re: The War Of The Worlds
It was totally pants, the whole thing was a lesson on how screw up an adaptation of a classic story.
I don't think anyone has managed to do it justice ever. The definitive version remains the musical version! Episode 1 was slow, and just seemed to be a outlet to show how pretty the lead actress could look (if you like redheads). Episode 2 the tripods where actually quite good, I liked the way they moved. There was no further explanation of why the smoke killed them. No Thunderchild. Artilleryman Superfluous. Episode 3 not just Ep3 but the time jumping forward and back didn't do anything to enhance the story. The aliens didn't look good. it was just not good, I think budget constraints may have affected it. |

Re: The War Of The Worlds
Been watching another version on Fox.......it’s not really “War of the Worlds” I.e tripods and all that. It’s more like Survivors.
It’s bleak. Slow moving. Set in the U.K. & France. (Anglo/French production) But I’ve found it strangely compulsive. I’m up to Ep 6. I don’t think it’s for everyone but I’m enjoying it so far. |

It certainly is unexpectedly compelling, normally I'd given up by now on something which is so obviously a slow-burner. |
Re: The War Of The Worlds
The second season is out (first few episodes) but so far I've only managed to find them with hard coded Dutch subtitles.
