I just came back from seeing 'War of the Worlds'. It was quite well done and is worth seeing...

COol, thanks, I will go see it tonight... I have to say that I have my reservations though your comment has helped to improve my curiosity.

I also saw Batman Begins last weekend. It was good enough to reset the batman series and launch a new and improved one.

I saw war of the worlds, and it was very nice go and see it if you can.

I liked that this Batman actually had a sense of humour and some people skills, which I wasn't sure I would.

I haven't seen War of the Worlds yet but I will go see it for sure. I really liked the original book by H.G. Wells and the old 1950's movie as well. (The TV series wasn't that good.) I understand that this new movie is totally different and unrelated to the other shows. In general I like Spielberg's movies and this one should be a good one as well.

I don't know about you AT, but I think the great movies are timeless. I can watch a movie series like Star Wars endlessly without getting bored of it (except maybe for Ep I...).

Basically, all the new, revolutionary ideas have already been thought of, done, and beaten to death a dozen times. Perhaps one day there will be another truely revolutionary movie or movie series created. We can only wait for that day, and hope it does indeed come.

Well I went and seen War of The Worlds. Man what a distrubing movie that was. Very well done, Tom Cruise was really good in the movie despite all of the hidden political and advertising nonsense.

Is it me, or did those aliens look a lot like the ones from Independance day? Also I think I have seen those tri-Pods before....HALF LIFE 2.

Still its a good movie, not good for young kids though.

And yes, Renegade 13, some movies are timeless, and Star Wars is one of them.

Half-Life 2 got those tripods from WoTW. As did the Justice League cartoon and probably dozens of others I either forgot about or never knew about.
