Now with added aliens. TRIPODS! With TENTACLES! (YES! They haven't bottled it) Picking up people after they've been tipped from a ferry! (Titanic eat your heart out)
Some cool effects by the looks of it, but by christ, I'm getting worked up about this movie. So far it's looking to do what ID4 should have done, I.e. Had running ground battles with the aliens.
Damn, I'll put up with any amount of Spielberg schmaltz for big budget destruction on a grand scale.
Ep3!? Phthththhtt! This is going to be the mainstream SF movie of the year.

Gah, why do trailers always get posted while I'm at work?

Gah, why do trailers always get posted when my bandwidth is currently employed sucking up a certain science fiction film...

There is a version without a timestamp, same quality

That looks wicked!
The Original film rocked, ending could of been abit better, but im not sure how much this new film is based and the book and film.

I'm only hoping this is it, not too sure - 500Mb more and I'll know...

Quality is better than usual though, seems to have a bit of vertical squashing though.

Elements of both I think. The book was written and set in 1898. The movie was American propoganda against the evil commies.
Invasion, man on the brink of extinction. Hopefully the "common cold" virus element hasn't been mutated into the ridiculous ID4 computer virus "get out of jail free" card. Still, the original ending (both book and 50's movie) is a little dated. I wonder how they'll do it? The alien in the house is straight out of the 50's movie. The ferry replaces the Thuderchild (would have liked to have seen a destroyer toe to toe with a tripod, still can't have everything)
