	The War of the Worlds - Days in the fabulous life of Lewe
		The popularity of 'The War of the Worlds' originally derives from a 1938 radio play of H.G. Wells book, wich has been broadcasted so realistically that some of the people listening actually called the police.
		Up to today the question to many Sci-Fi fans of which are the most remarkable movies of this genre, will be answered with a list of movies that will also include 1953s 'The War of the Worlds'.
		War of the Worlds is currently running in the theatres and we (Lewe, his girlfriend and myself) are going to see it tomorrow.

	The War Of The Worlds invasion: The complete War Of The Worlds website
		The Halloween production of H.G.Wells The War Of The Worlds should have been no different to any that had gone before, but before the hour was up, Welles would find himself at the centre of a perfect storm of controversy.
		George Pal was the first director to bring The War Of The Worlds to the big screen in 1953 and just last year Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise re-imagined the invasion with a massive budget and an even bigger bang.

	Movie Review - War of the Worlds (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-08)
		War of the Worlds is a film that will deliver a “gut-punch” to your midsection.
		The potential end of the world comes courtesy of some spectacularly nasty (and wonderfully realized) aliens that are hell-bent on the destruction of mankind.
		War of the Worlds has everything you would expect or want in a summer blockbuster.

	War of the Worlds \| Movie Review \| Entertainment Weekly
		Watching Steven Spielberg's spooky and playfully spectacular remake of War of the Worlds, you may feel a surge of childlike awe, the same sort of awe inspired by the nuclear-nightmare fantasies of the '50s the moment when the giant tarantula, the Tokyo lizard king, the hell-bent flying saucer...the thing, whatever it was, stood revealed.
		Over and over in War of the Worlds, he evokes the sensation, more familiar from dreams than movies, that an otherworldly entity, glimpsed from a great distance, is suddenly, violently clawing its way into your personal space.
		War of the Worlds is an attack-of-the-aliens disaster film crafted with sinister technological grandeur — a true popcorn apocalypse.

	interrogation report: The War of the Worlds (movie review) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-08)
		War of the Worlds, I decided to watch Byron Haskin's 1953 version for comparison.
		Perhaps because The War of the Worlds comes just four years after the end of World War II, people might have been much more likely to take direction from a government that had issued numerous bomb alerts and still maintained active civil defense chapters.
		By today's standards, The War of the Worlds has pretty unbelievable effects, but you can tell that Haskin took enormous care with the effects available to him at the time.

	Scifi Movies: War of the Worlds
		The 1950s movie is the only one really worth watching as it very closely follows the original H G Wells novel, with the exception that the action occurs in the 1950s US rather than in early 20th century London, England, and the alien technology is slightly altered from that in the book.
		I have noticed there is a "War of the Worlds" movie that has come out straight to dvd recently, which is copmletely different from Spielberg's but still based on the original book.
		Apart from that, there is a "War of the Worlds" TV series, which is very loosely based on the original book, and puts forward the idea that the aliens survived the war and are now fighting against humans again, due to their ability to take over human bodies.

		Gene Barry and Ann Robinson play the hero and heroine roles that were de rigueur for movies like this in the '50s, and their encounter with one of the Martians is as creepy today as it was in '53.
		In the world of movies and in the world of many, this is the definitive “War Of the worlds”
		Of course movies must have a love interest and the more controversial religious aspect (of the book where the pastor wavers in his faith) would not pass in the movie.

	'War of the Worlds' - by Chris Moore
		Clearly, the constant 9/11 invocation — which was test-driven in a speech by Bush muse Karl Rove a week earlier — is a desperate administration's attempt to rekindle America's latent fears of the crashing jetliners, burning skyscrapers, and collapsing buildings of our not-too-distant-past for renewed political exploitation.
		In the first case, it was by H.G. Wells; in the second, by a team of neocons.
		"War of the Worlds" reached its apex in public consciousness when Orson Welles modified the story for a 1938 radio broadcast that caused mass hysteria.

	Jingx-ed in 2006 - Movie: War of the Worlds
		Simply because the movie traces the experiences of not the original protagonist but a different set of characters stuck in the same precarious environment of aliens invading Earth.
		The movies proposition makes no sense at all but it really doesnt matter because its just a way of kicking things of dramatically, with alien storms and earthquakes, and the trojan alian mechanism breaking buildings like tiwgs and shattering glass etc as it emerges from the depths of the earth.
		All in all, I would say this is a brilliant adaptation of HG Wells War of the World's on the silver screen.

		The War of the Worlds describes the fictional 1895 invasion of Earth by aliens from Mars who use laser-like Heat-Rays, chemical weapons, and mechanical three-legged ''fighting machines'' that could potentially be viewed as precursors to the tank.
		The fact that it is scarcely one seventh of the volume of the earth must have accelerated its cooling to the temperature at which life could begin.

		With the backing of the two studios Dreamworks and Paramount, the film is sure to be one of the "big movies" of 2006, and is further evidence of Hollywood's obsession with adapting novels.
		While HG Wells was an enthusiastic supporter of many of the film adaptations of his work, the likely attitude that Orson Welles might have had to another director taking one of the works with which he became most closely associated, can only be a matter of conjecture.

		The recent Hollywood movie War of the Worlds by Steven Spielberg is garnering much attention, but it's nothing like that accorded the 1938 radio version of H.G. Wells' novel.
		Although the extent of the panic that broadcast caused is still debated, along with the claim that it was intended to hoax the public, here are the essential facts.
		For example, one college senior told how he had been on a date and returned to his girlfriend's place to rescue her: "One of the first things I did was to try to phone my girl in Poughkeepsie, but the lines were all busy, so that just confirmed my impression that the thing was true.

		War of the Worlds was the anti-The Day the Earth Stood Still.
		Making the creepy invaders even more ominous was the fact that the movie never showed too much of them (a technique later used to great effect in 1975's Jaws).
		What audiences did see were the aliens' hovering war machines, the scariest on the silver screen yet—definitely not the bobbing saucers of old-school sci-fi.
