War Of The Worlds movie - finished!

[Mangamax]

Here you go with pics from Pendragon Pictures rival version to Speilbergs.
No sign of the Martians yet but seems pretty authentic - the time period, hiding in the river from the Heat Ray, Woking railway station being evacuated:

this must be lower budget version in comparative terms to the other one.  if it is out first it may well do well.likely it will not get het full big budget marketing stevie boys will.

looks very true to the novel.going by the pics offered here.

worth the ticket price i would suggest.

[Mangamax]

Yeah, its exactly that - kinda like the two horse Robin Hood race. This is the Patrick Bergin one.
There's some speculation as to what Spielberg is gonna call his now

[Noisybast]

I know it's impossible to tell from photos, but this, surprisingly, actually looks... quite good?

[Martin Jameson]

Is Jeff Wayne doing the soundtrack?

Looks like just a lot of old fahsioned people sitting or standing, sometimes waving their hands, or looking befuddled.

[House of Usher]

Looks nice. I'm rather looking forward to this.

Heh. I notice there are no Martians in the movie stills. I don't suppose they'd been added when these were printed.

"H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds".

I suppose Spielberg will just have leave the author's name out of his title, then.

Is Patricj Bergin actually in it? I'll have to ask my friend, because his dad has been mates with Bergin for years.

Cool. It all sounds a bit weird and nutty though. And is it really possible t make a film in secret these days?

[Mangamax]

Er, no.
I meant Patrick Bergin version as this WOTW is the cheaper, less star-studded one same as Begins was to Costners Robin Hood

[Proudhuff]

Look there's Paul Weller at Woking train station!

Must be going....

[JimBob]

Hmm my Crap Film senses are tingling.

The "we could have had real stars if we wanted to but decided we were better off without them" bit sounds a bit Pat Mills.

[Quirkafleeg]

It all looks a bit "Sunday Afternoon Classic Serial"...
