Looking back at the Super Bowl and Japanese teaser trailors, and watching some of the previews that have appeared on some US shows - this film is going to be INCREDIBLE.
OK, ok, so some of you may disagree saying 'its a modern day film' - so what - its still WOTW now matter which way you look at it.
Looking past the ideas that the teasers show nothing of the invaders themselves, something we all long to see, just look at the scenes of human survival, the outcome of the 'war', the charactors expressions to these invaders, all so brief in the etasers but there to see. SS has got the horror, the tension, the unbelievible visualisation that mankind is now longer superior and that human technology is merely a childs toy compared to the 'new' visitors - I find it startling.
I have never in my life been so eagerly awaiting the arrival of a film as I am with this movie.
Adding to that, 1/ Im glad we have a modern day working of the book as it proves that this 'old' story to the yoounger generation can still be used, 2/ Im glad its SS who has taken the job on as I personally have always liked his style of films and his attention to detail.
Roll on June/July

Here here! This is shaping up to be one heck of a movie event.
Have you seen the marketing Paramount are doing for this movie?! Obscure billboard signs depicting mass migration of animals with the words like "the end of all things is near" in latin, as well as guerilla marketing like spraypainting those words on streets...it looks like Paramount are making a new benchmark in film advertising!
I cant wait!

I've got to say that I've never been so disinterested in an upcoming sci fi film and every bit of news that comes out makes me even less interested. It will be a good summer popcorn flick with spectacular effects but nothing else. Not a great adaptation of a classic novel. And of course it has lightweight actor Tom Cruise in it

Here here It's been a long time since I've been looking forward to a movie like this. And the more I hear, see and read about it, the more eager I become to actually see it. June 29th looks awful far away
