If you don't give them nuke proof shields, the story falls apart because the Aliens can't pose a threat to a modern military force. The Martian war machines as described in the original book were sufficient to roll over the military technology of the time without being entirely impervious to harm. Against modern weaponry such a giant walking platform like that makes zero sense unless they have shielding, and they are not designed as efficient war fighting vehicles but extermination machines designed to walk around indiscriminately killing everything in sight.

Even if they could only be brought down by nukes; we can deliver those from planes, ships at sea, submarines, underground silos, mobile ground launch systems. All can deliver nukes from beyond the horizon. You would have to change the tripods and the invasion at large to the point of them being unrecognizable if you don't give them nuke proof shields.

i didn't realize this. imo that dude is 3/3 and he and cruise seem to work well together.

I don't know man, to me that sounds pretty formidable even against a modern army. Plus you have to keep in mind that it's a fairly small scale invasion in the source material, they only invade Greater London. You're talking about a scorched earth scenario where the government willingly nukes an area that still has thousands of civilians in it, when the ayys are consciously busting up infrastructure and mostly leaving people alive for their own needs. That would be a PR nightmare, lefties would willingly flock to the martians after that.

>dozens of tripods
Minuscule amount given how spread out they were, with only a handful being dropped at key major cities.
>100 ft tall
That just makes them a really big target.
>described as fast as a train or fast as a flying bird, not some clunky AT-AT shit
Keep the time period in mind that comparison is coming from. That's like 30-40mph, right around the same speed AT-AT's are claimed to move.
>heat ray which is basically a nuclear magnifying glass that can incinerate and slag shit from miles away
It requires a direct line of sight though, while modern portable artillery can accurately hit targets from well over the horizon. Guided munitions can be launched from hundreds to thousands of miles away and hit accurately. I'm sure the heat rays are more than capable of obliterating any modern vehicle, but that won't matter much if the tripods are being pounded from all directions by things far beyond its ability to fight back against.
>chemical rockets that can smother hundreds of people in an instant, might justify it as some alien bullshit that can render gas masks useless like in the radio broadcast
Ordinary gas masks probably would be useless, but I think NBC protected vehicles would fair pretty well.
>heat rays could theoretically be used as mobile, energy based CIWS to shoot down shells or rockets
They have the potential for that, but the number of tripods and how spread out they are will limit their ability to content with the amount of munitions we have available to throw at them. Even if nukes are the only option, we've got thousands of tiny tactical ones that would result in there not being that much collateral/environmental damage.
>in the book they eventually develop air support
It took them a long time to deploy it though.

The best part of the novel is how the Martians improvise constantly, building on the fly. It makes them much more intimidating and also makes their defeat more poetic.

The Thunderchild is absent from adaptations yet it's the big set piece in the book.

They build:
Tripods
Black Mist (Welles predicted chemical weapons over a decade before WW1) which they use to counter artillery.
Catchers (to capture humans to harvest).
Red Weed
Aircraft (Written before the Wright Brothers, these are used against the Royal Navy).

It's a sci fi movie, but it's also a movie about the survival of war refugees, and that's what hits the point home.

You could say the movie did that, too, but it's not something you can get around the perspective.To the protagonist, they have no frame of reference of what's going on but what they see.

Why do they have that flap on top open when taking off? Wouldn't that significantly increase the drag?

Yes, for the F-35b variant, which will be the Royal Navy's primary replacement for the Harrier and their 2 new aircraft carriers and because of their ramps will be able to take off with higher fuel and weapons load. I believe America will be using the the B variant too.

Which one!?
Where!?

be on a different planet at the time

We've long outpaced the technology of the original Martians in the books. Their machines are giant and can theoretically go anywhere, but they were clunky, unshielded and they had no feasible way of getting off of Earth easily once they got here, so their jump here (which the book theorises must have been due to some sort of intense desperation) was predicated on there being a victory. Nowadays, if the bacteria didn't get them, we'd probably just win and they'd end up self-genociding as an entire race.

Yeah. The Death Star.

Seven months ago now, Venus and Mars were in alignment with the sun; that is to say, Mars was in opposition from the point of view of an observer on Venus. Subsequently a peculiar luminous and sinuous marking appeared on the unillumined half of the inner planet, and almost simultaneously a faint dark mark of a similar sinuous character was detected upon a photograph of the Martian disk. One needs to see the drawings of these appearances in order to appreciate fully their remarkable resemblance in character.

Run away a knock down every person I pass to make them an easier and more attractive target than myself.

I'm not proud of it. I'm just realistic about what a cowardly sack of shit I'd be if it really did come to it.

In the prequel of the YA series (which occurs after they have taken over), they got us with a; mass hypnotism through media (television and radio)
and b;
EMP attacks that take out all of our electronics

Then they maintain control with mind control devices implanted on everyone in adolescence, and by keeping us in a pre-industrial state.

That all translates to modern day.

PSH carries it to second to last in the power ranking in my opinion.

It's terrible with regards to the source material.
The way they explained how the aliens got to Earth was the stupidest shit imaginable.

what movie is this from?

>The way they explained how the aliens got to Earth was the stupidest shit imaginable.
In the lightning?

just finished the rewatch

held up well even with the creative changes

at the edge of my seat whole viewing

Its amazing how Welles ideas are too creative for filmmakers even now. Orson Welles and Jeff Wayne being the only adapters to understand the source.

Also, it's no surprise that Hollywood cuts out the subtext about imperialism.

"Dance off, you and me, bro!"

>gets pureed

Good point

i still dont understand why tom delonge was listed in declassified govt files and hillary emails. shits all kinda fucked

lol what a retarded scene

doesnt this hurt?

i do that all the time without cables attached to me. fucking pussy.

Why did they cut out the journalist, who works perfectly as a POV character? The whole point is the protag observed the world and everyone going to shit around him.

Shoving in an unsubtle sub-plot about him and his partner being social outsiders detracts from the actual story, about the Martians wrecking shit.

Welles story has alot of things to say about imperialism, humanity, courage, and hubris, but Welles uses subtext. I fear we are going to get text, in neon and plastered over the actual story.

kino

he walked it off

This is pretty stupid if you consider the entire film's production would be halted if he broke a leg or something. Like the entire cost of setting up that car, crane, aaaaah im neurotic

MMMMMM...nootka

they literally plan around that, what with shooting scenes in certain orders, plus factoring in the whole movie-making insurance thing.

Why a maggot? Why not bacteria? Or a microbe?

Nukes? Hydrogen bombs? Over civilian areas with millions upon millions?

It would kill 95% of humanity. im glad your not in charge

He was Raimi before Raimi was a thing.

The machines were buried millions of years ago

even though a lot of it was kinda crap, there was a scene in scary movie 4 that parodied this part really well

gotta see if I can find it somewhere

seems cool. incredibly similar to whatHL2 was going to be before they like completely scraped their first ideas and remade it.

>aliens smart enough to invade a planet
>don't take into account all the disease/germs

Almost as dumb as aliens invading a planet with a shitload of water which is apparently toxic to them.

I remember those, I started with the prequel 'When the Tripods Came', I feel the whole essence of the novel was crippled by recycling something so iconic from War of the Worlds when the idea of alien subversion and eventually oppression were interesting on their own, but overall pretty good.

well senpai desu the underlying idea was that we were a livestock planet for the aliens millions of years later

they clearly deposited the ships all over the planet until the livestock multiplied over a millenia

They would be able to grasp the concept of disease and their immune systems if they were that advanced. I know it's autism but just wear alium space suits or something.

How many adaptations have there been?

I remember two others came out around the time of the Cruise, one of them being some dude's passion project made with next to no money.

typical alien incompetence

the initial survey before the ship depositing around the world didn't yield this alarm, millions of years later is a lot of new bacteria/germs introduced into the "farm" planet

It may be relatively quick but imagine every single pain receptor you have in your body going full tilt for 1-2 seconds. Then you explode as all the water in your body vaporizes. I'd rather get domed with a rifle tbqh.

You lost. At that joke.

I, for one, welcome our new alien girafftopi overlords.

Nukes are old hat. It's all about rail/gauss gun technology. I'd like to see how one of those walkers would hold up to getting hit with a slug of tungsten traveling at nearly 8.5k ft/s.

How would you know that?

It isn't designed to be used frequently but allows for operation out of very short/makeshift runways in an emergency.

i too enjoyed that detail

First, duck into an alley instead of running straight down the street like an idiot... second, begin a sequence of montages that show how hard I'm training to defeat the alien. Next? Defeat the alien in a hard fought battle on the alien's home turf (where I also trained) in front of their political leaders before finally delivering a speech from the bottom of my heart that unites our two peoples.

So... Rocky IV basically.

Im not trying to sound retarded but couldnt you just run into a building if they were shooting everyone on the streets?

They start indiscriminately destroying the buildings too. Their weapon is some bullshit beam that can do whatever the scene calls for.
