New Trailer for "War of the Worlds" The release date is getting closer and closer, and I'm getting more excited for this film. The original is, I think, the best of the 1950s SF films. Good SF is best when it's about ideas and creativity rather than bombast. That is why I prefer older science fiction to today's films and novels which lean more toward heavy effects work as a crutch for a creative story. Spielberg's taken on it, from the looks of the trailer, seems like it could be the best of both worlds.
The new trailer finally gives a few very brief glimpses of the aliens. I loved Minority Report (from a great story by the legendary Philip K Dick), and this version of War of the Worlds looks stylistically similar to that film. [Edited 5/21/05 7:41am] | |
