LYCOS RETRIEVER 
War of the Worlds
built 217 days ago
Based on the retelling novel of H.G Wells, including the original War of the Worlds back in 1953. Steven Spielberg creates the allusion of the classic and creates it into a satifying epic movie that will blow you away! The tale between aliens and humans was a perfect theme in this movie and its nostagia is through the roof. Some movies spoofed this movie,(Epic Movie) but the humour is underdone and not funny as it looks like.

War of the Worlds (1953, US) is another invasion film that features a much more immediate threat than The Thing. Alien war machines land on earth and begin destroying everything they can. Despite the military's best efforts, they can not be destroyed -- but eventually they die when exposed to a normal human virus. Like the Thing, these aliens have a weakness and are ultimately defeated.

The untitled film is the fact-based story of the last two men--Port Authority police officers John McLoughlin and William J. Jimeno--rescued from the collapse of the World Trade Center. The film follows their ordeals and the efforts of their rescuers. Cage stars as one of the cops. "The film is a portrayal of how the human spirit rose above the tragic events of that day," Paramount says in a press release. Announced Friday--just a day after terror attacks in London--the film has no release date. But according to Variety, the project has been fast-tracked and is already in preproduction.
