Home Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

We probably just got off on the wrong foot ... lets try again ...

OK, I am all knowing, all seeing and am never wrong about anything .... your turn.

Just kidding,

The problem I have is that I am familiar with the H.G. Wells story, I am a long time SF fan both in reading and in films, my line of work is robotics, often in military applications, and I thought the effects here were fantastic. As they were in Minority Report. I guess I'm a bit surprised you didn't notice.

Looking back, most of your comments are not about the graphics at all. You made a couple of comments about the relationship between the marketing CGI and the ones in the released film. What else? That is why I'm saying that you really have not said much about the graphics.

From my point of view ...

The pacing of the landing and people's understanding of what was happening was very believable.

The war machines were exceedingly well animated. The dynamics of their movement in the scenery very well done.

Any lack of detail in background scenery, I didn't notice because I was not looking for that. In my experience, this is quite common in ALL movies that simulate some environment.

The scene of carnage outside the mother's house with a downed airplane, quite horrific, well done.

The remote eye in the basement was exceedingly well done, reminded me of the very impressive aquatic remote in "The Abyss".

The horrific mix of organic and mechanical features in the human cage again nicely done.

etc. etc. etc.
