The War Of The Worlds 1953

I grew up in the 1950s, and it was the early sci-fi era. There were a small group of movies that really did for it me: War of the Worlds, Forbidden Planet, The Thing, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Day the Earth Stood Still. Love them all.

[@coleparker]

I was born in 53 so both the movie and I are the same age. It is a great adaptation. As a side note, when George Pal the producer and director was setting up to make the movie, he visited Camp Pendleton Marine Base in California, and consulted with a number of the Officers and Men about the story and whether or not they could defeat the Martians. They all told him that if he stuck to the original story, the Martians would be toast as they had no protective shielding to the modern weapons they had. As a result of these interviews, Pal came up with the concept of the Force field in order to stay true to Welles' story.

[@jdewitt77]

In the original novel from 1898, the Martians have no force fields and some of their tripods are destroyed by the British Army.

[@coleparker]

@@jdewitt77 I totally agree. That is why I said Pal came up with the concept of the shields. Can you imagine nowadays if the Martian Machines had no shields coming up against our precision missile weapons, heavy artillery, and not to mention battlefield shoulder launched missiles, tanks and bombs.

One can imagine that the Martians--who had been observing and scrutinizing us--decided that we humans were advancing too quickly so they launched their attack on Earth while they could still defeat us.

[@richardlangdon712]

I like in the movie how the Martians hold back from firing their weapons to gauge the effectiveness of our weapons on their shields. Like the general said earlier, this was the only place so far that sufficient force could be brought to bear on the Martians. The Martians knew this too.

La primera vez que vi esta película fue un sábado de noche en 1981, yo tenía 15 años, quedé impactado por los efectos visuales y sonoros, además del guión, nunca lo olvidaré, no había escuchado antes acerca de la historia. Siempre me gustaron las películas antiguas de ciencia ficción. Pero esta no tiene comparación. Después la vi varias veces. Los canales de TV abierta la proyectaban en distintos horarios, por lo menos desde aquella vez, la habré visto una vez por año. Después pude verla en canales de cable en los años 90s y en los 2000 también. Ahora la recupero en KZbin. Realmente, la mejor película de sci fi de todos los tiempos que se pudo realizar en los 50s sin las facilidades técnicas digitales de hoy en día, con los se pueden hacer historias parecidas, pero La guerra de los mundos fue de avanzada para su época. Las distintas tomas de cámara como las aéreas y de las ciudades como Los Ángeles en ruinas atacadas por las naves extraterrestres muy logradas, y los efectos visuales y sonoros aterradores como el de las armas de rayos alienígenas. También la fugaz aparición de un "marciano" junto a los protagonistas, que para mí eso le daba un cierto halo de misterio a esos seres que venían a invadir y destruir a nuestro planeta. Cada tanto, la veo y es como que vuelvo al año 81cuando la vi por 1ra. vez que no podía moverme de adelante del televisor, súper enganchado con la historia. Un verdadero clásico del cine. Gracias!!

The best part of this movie is the building tension they impart slowly, gradually, until the preacher walks out to confront them. Then when he is killed the tension is broken by the quick edits of the military response. It elicits an emotional response of revenge when peaceful people have made attempts to meet the Martians and they respond with death.

We should have reconstruction and update of this plot with a 'genuine' sense of realism with the military. The newer version is nowhere near this quality. CGI at the right moment works. Models at the right time works too. Painted scenarios too. The great artistry of cinema is the combination of these techniques. It helps these movies age well.

The dropping of the flare early on taught the Martians that we had the potential to mount air strikes against them. When the flying wing approached their nest, they had already anticipated a more serious attack and put up their screens. Thus, the A-bomb proved useless against them.
