Re: The fiasco of " War of the Worlds "-----------------

I saw WOTW today and really liked it. The first scene of the pod emerging from the city street was awe inspiring and frightened me, a memorable scene.
There was nothing the aliens did that human beings haven't done far worse to each other, and that seemed to be a sub-context in the story. The aliens seemed to be portrayed as toxic human IDs doing their worst, with mini ids dispersed along the story. Each escape just lead to fresh horror.
I also liked AI and Minority Report a lot. Although TC isn't my favorite actor, he certainly did a workmanlike job in the two films. WOTW paid reasonable respect to the classic story. I wish they had used Richard Burton's recitation from the WOTW record, though, it was far superior as a spoken acting piece.
