Of course no!!!
But I swear I feel like the prodigal son. Ive said some unkind words pre and they may be true. But looking at the art and the state of CG today I think this film will be what the WOTW purist will get closest to the book ever wilst maintaining some quality.

I have no doubt that the movie is going to be the one we have all waited for. Is JW God? Maybe with a small "g" in the music world. I grew up with JW's music and it even inspired me to take up music, so I perhaps see him more as a guardian angel. :-)

Well JW may not be God but hopefully his movie will still be a religious experience for all of us! ;D

Full CG is good cause you don't have to worry about certain companies compositing CG onto live film and making it look poo.
Jepordy answer. What did pendragon do with war of the worlds?
But a full CG film will be ace and judging by the tests we have been show, Oh My God. My lipless mouth is quivering and dropping saliva.

"Is JW God?"
Good god, hell no, he's just a musical composer who has created a album based on H.G Wells novel that happens to be the closest incarnation to the original story. If his film matches H.Gs book he'll get a pat on the back and a handshake. If it doesn't he''ll get a cow pat in the face and a boot up the arse ;D

If you live that close to him, attach a note reading "Jon said where the fook is the new merchandise" and throw it threw his window.

JW is our last best hope of a decent version. Yep I think he's our ONLY hope now unless some other tv or film company with talented individuals and a very decent budget gets the rights from Jeff and Paramount - to make a live action version. I just hope he does everything such as merchandising etc as tasteful as possible.

I'll have one of those and a print or two. It's when you start getting things like tots t-shirts, underwear and heaps of tackwear and merchandise etc, aimed at the kiddies appearing everywhere that I don't like. I think it just cheapens everything. I suppose it's ok for something like Star Wars etc which has always been highly commercial - but not for something based on a classic novel. I don't know whether Jeff Wayne has someting similar but I think P.Jackson had the right idea. He made everyone sign a guarantee of quality pledge so that the merchandise released was of high quality.
