Anyone else worried that Spielberg might later edit WOTW so that the MFM carry walkie talkies instead of heat-rays?

Ok, that's just a funny image in itself. What about the military? "The Martians are coming! Open Fire!"
*Hundreds of Walkie-Talkies begin clicking*
No, no; I really don't think he'd do that, since the film isn't really aimed at the kids, as E.T. was; this is meant to be sci-fi horror. No worries.

Are we talking a 21st century version of 'Convoy' were a load of FMs gather in a line, there occupants on walkies instead of CB radios '10/4 there rubber ducky, we have a charlie on the loose with a tank and he's getting ready to fire at us when we reach the outskirts of a town, over and out there good buddy' ;D Hang on!, where did the walkie talkie bit come from?

Mr Spielberg did that with E.T. when he did the special edition with added scenes and a CG E.T. face, he also took out the guns and replaced them with walkietalkies

That was that Haloween scene, wasn't it? I think he changed that after the 9/11 terrorist attack. Allthough Spielberg could have used 9/11 as an excuse and putting in CGI walkie-talkies has allways been the intention. I think some other board members might agree on that.

reeses pieces? Thanks malfuntion!
Yeah 'keys' thats him, he spends ages fingering those reeses pieces, creepy.
That bit always made me laugh, how did he make the leap from reeses pieces to aliens? Did he pick them up finger them a bit then decide that some kid had left a trail for a nice little alien to follow? If he didnt then why pick up some moldy old sweets of the ground?
Those are the kind of plot holes my fan boy nature picks out and they are also the plot holes that will wreck this latest offering from Mr Spielberg. The ones that seem to make sense until you think about them. Like the reeses pieces.

that was the stupidist thing ever done Actually, I personally think the stupidest thing ever done was to make it so Han Solo 'didn't shoot first.' *grumbling profanities about political correctness*

Yeah that cartoon jabba was awful, I believe they fixed it for the DVD though, is that true? I havent got the DVD, my original VHS is still going strong without the "added scenes".
