Totally agree here, although the digitally remastered CD is awesome on the home theatre system.Originally Posted by Disco Dan

I have the CD, with all the drawings etc... I remember hearing the old LP as a kid... awesome then... awesome now
The the Tom Cruise movie sucked... the orginal yankie movie sucked... I don't remember seeing a british movie thoughI am sure it would have been better

Ooooolaaaaaaaaaa..... wheeeooo wheeo wheeeo...
gotta luv' that production, 'tis bloody brilliant - I had it playing in a class one day and my students came in from the next period... they were fascinated by it and some were creeped out by it all!
We'll start over again!

Still got the original LP and also brought the CD, the LP is the best as the CD has little bits different in places which for me brought up on the LP don't make it so good. Not even interested in seeing the american movie.

Good old black and white British movies. Tally-ho, eh what!

What a great movie.
I have the original LP - Never Played. Still sealed.
I have the CD too, which I play on occassion.
I have the original movie on DVD - Which kind of sucks.
I have the Tom Cruise version, which was awesome. I really liked it. Hard to pack such an eventful movie into a short two hours.
What an awesome performance by Dakato Fanning...
All in all, Being a huge fan of The war of the worlds......
I'm kind of dissapointed that it was packed into one movie and not a mini series.
I was massively dissapointed in the new movie, not to see the Thunderchild getting melted to smitherines!
And not impressed that HG Well's original words weren't stuck to in the opening scenes.

The Tom Cruise version sucked like a Dyson. The plot was lamer than Christopher Reeve. Tom's acting couldn't have been more wooden if it was done by Troy Tempest. Even Sue Bradford would have slapped his daughter. I was cheering for the robots.

My father has the 4x LP set, remember listening to it as a kid and studying the inlays. Absolutely loved it, still remember the tune like it was yesterday.

"you must spread rep around before..." couldnt agree more Hitcher.
Jeff Wayne's (LP/CD) version was inspired. Richard Burton as narrator, and showed that a kazoo could be a musical instrument, rather than just a kids toy.
If you have never heard it, you are missing out.

we got to listen to this great story IN school, IN classtime! we got 30min in the last period on a friday afternoon. It was on a record and came with a picture book. It was awsome. I would love to own it so I could listen to it. I didn't even bother to go see the american version at the movies cause I knew it would be crap, and it was!

Remember listening Jeff Waynes great soundtrack and Richards Burtons mesmorizing narrative on the old record version while at Intermediate. The martian cry was also so much better than the fog horn in the movie version.
The Sharif don't like it!
Are we talking about the Orson Wells radio version?
or the Jeff Wayne Musical?
I love the Jeff Wayne musical

The Jeff Wayne LP was a great listen, the some of the music on it scared the crap outame when I was younger
