If you look closer you can see that most of these so-called 'mistakes' are corrected.
Please stop making such a fuss about this movie, okay it has some flaws but it really is a good movie. Just give it a proper chance.

Tripod 1) No. If you dont like my comments, dont click on the thread. Simple enough isnt it? You wouldnt throw yourself infront of a car? No? My point is made. 2) i did give it a chance, two trips to the cinema chance at 7 pounds a piece. Now i just drag its sorry ass to a barn with a gun and shoot its ass every chance i get. WOTW was an important part of my life and i feel deeply insulted with this debacle of a film. |

After reading the first page (couldn't read any more) I have noticed that a lot of these 'errors' have been discounted by someone else. Although some of the explanations are a bit open to question.

Haven't we had *exactly* this same discussion before, pointing to the exact same list of so-called "errors", and pointing out that most of these are not errors but instead perfectly normal things seen in every movie ever made? Movies aren't documentaries. I seem to recall someone here saying something about guys wearing anoraks with magnifying glasses glued to their faces yelling "See, that car is five inches from the curb in this shot, and in the previous one it was only four inches!"

Yeah, that was me late last year trying to make a point that there are more important things in life to worry about than a couple of thousand feet of celluloid. |

One other thing about this is, the film is 20 in the top 30 most mistakes list & shares this list of 30 with some excellent films. www.moviemistakes.com/top.phpIf you were to complain about this as a fault, then it should be directed at the film industry as a whole and not specifically at War of the Worlds. |

Movies are made to be watched in the cinema. They are *not* made to have someone with wa-a-a-ay too much time on his hands watch the DVD in slow-motion or freeze framed trying to spot inconsistancies between shots. The mere enumeration of unnoticable inconsistancies** on this website bears *no* relation to a movie's quality. It bears a great *deal* of relation with the type of movies that geeks with Internet access like to watch. **A lot of these aren't mistakes at all-- they are artistic decisions. It's telling that one of their labels is Deliberate "Mistake".  Somebody there needs to look up the definition of the word "mistake". And also the word "oxymoron". |
