War of the Worlds (2005)

>oh no you cant shoot them they have energy shields
>it also protect them from nuclear bombs
>how ? ... it's magic !

there's 0 stars between earth and mars

>they just so happened to be advanced enough to deal with Victorian technology

It's worth pointing out that the novel had a very Victorian understanding of evolution and progress. The Martians were so overly evolved due to their advanced science that they could no longer eat using purely biological means. Instead, they had a chattel species of humanoids that were raised for their blood, and the Martians had to use a straw to suck their blood out directly because in the course of their evolution the Martians had lost the ability to eat or even digest food.

The Martians were ignorant of Earthly germs because they had lived in a sterile scientific "utopia" for so many millions of years that germ theory was lost knowledge to them, as they hadn't had to deal with germs or infections since before humanity even existed.

They basically forgot that was a possibility. The Martians had eliminated hostile microbes from their planet centuries ago, and only observed humanity from a distance, so didn't pick up on disease as a possibility.

>applying earthly logic and physics to advanced, otherworldly super science tech humans can't even understand

Was this your very first science fiction movie?

MOTHER FUCKING THUNDERCHILD

Well he's actually not wrong. He said star*s*. More than 1. Theres zero more than 1.

>. At the time, a torpedo ram like Thunder Child represented the most powerful destructive force in the world - fully armoured, with a sharp ram on the bow, torpedo tubes, heavy guns and powerful engines to take it up to ramming speed. In the real world, however, torpedo rams were completely useless; all that they ever destroyed was a single, grounded ship and a harbour jetty. The Other Wiki says "It has been suggested by some that, in view of the limited military value the torpedo ram demonstrated, Wells's immortalization of the type in what would become a literary classic was the torpedo ram's greatest achievement."

ULLA!

He's wrong anyway, it's a sun, stars are smaller.

I tried to estimate how many stars would fit into the sun before I went blind

I think a mostly inglorious ship being so close to Earth's last hope is pretty significant, personally. On the other hand, youtube.com/watch?v=tb4BWSUV8mM

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

These album illustrations used to scare the shit out of me, as a kid. Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds did in general, and I'm pretty sure it's what inspired my /x/ side. Thanks, dad.

missed opportunity not calling it Thunder Cock

Yeah, they should have named it something that one person would think is funny 100 years later.

The important thing is that you fed him some attention.

We're not black people, attention isn't currency.

I wish they made the Martians more unique. As it is they're just a bit meh.

He said stars not suns you fucking dope

Wait really? I remember in the start of the movie they like zoom into a red light when they're talking about the aliens.

Did they ever address what's going on with Mars? Were they fine after the war?

Mars gets invaded in the sequel.

literally me

Wuh

Niggers must be exterminated

Why would they know what a microbe is if there aren't microbes on their home world?

This. Imagine not knowing that most of the universe is actually a 'holograph' transmitted to us from the black hexagon on the north pole of saturn, using the moon, which is super large compared to any other moon in the universe in comparison to it's planet, and also conviently faces us all the time like a satellite dish, as a relay point to beam the signal right into our brains, kinda like how the planets in The Elder Scrolls are actually giant bodies of gods in their physical manifestation, but people just see big rocks because otherwise they would go crazy.

LoEG vol 2, nuffsaid.

> STOP QUESTIONING MY FAVORITE FAN FICTION!!!!!!

>The sequel
You mean that unauthorized fanfiction tier sequel starring Thomas Edison?

A movie showing a 10 year guerrilla war against aliens would be so amazing.

nah

So, that one short film by Saff Afrika Director Man Stephen Blomkamp?

>COUGH COUGH
>DIES OF EARTH BACTERIA

How? The plot is so stupid.

Our modern progressive outlooks on gender.
