"You know Robbie, if you had any balls you'll go out their and get our car back."🤣 That got me.

[@Irish381]

The sound the tripod makes is a didgeridoo, a nod to the inspiration of the original novel , A British army against the Tasmanian aborigines.

[@PsychofileIndustries]

I saw this movie with my dad in the theater and when the tripods let loose that blaring sound it actually was pretty damn unsettling.

[@YoutubeBlobMcFish]

once i poked my dads eye when i heard the Noise

[@tonyabrookes9931]

That sound is great! Chilling...

[@katjosephperez8772]

I don’t remember my experience seeing this in theaters! Maybe if my mom is hanging out with a friend, I can tell my dad to take his hearing aids out, and we can watch it on blast. Or we could watch it in my room with my outrageous TV from when I was able to work and had an oversized TV and couch. My TV is disgusting: it’s enormous and it’s an Android TV or something so it’s a hassle to use. It’s from Hisense. My dad damaged his own ears in jobs he was told he should wear them. Those might’ve included his weed days. My mom was ultra Mexican-Church clean, and I’m allergic. But I could have my dad watch it with me. Last time I lost my voice was 7-8 years ago, and my deep, rusty bass of a voice was inaudible to him. He could take it. I took him to a BTS concert, and he just loved it. My mom and brother have too sensitive ears. I have Raycons

[@themischief420]

@@katjosephperez8772 lmao what

[@grapeshot]

I actually like this movie. I like the scene when the fleet of Apache helicopter gunships flew over and fired off that salvo of Hellfire missiles. Of course it didn't do any good considering the Martians or wherever the extraterrestrials came from, tripods had a protective shield around them. But it still looks neat reminded me of my days when I was in the military.

[@pinkimietz3243]

I even love it. One of my favorites tbh.

[@grapeshot]

@theJACK!!! no but I have seen Hellfire missiles being fired by Apaches gunships.

[@grapeshot]

@theJACK!!! I don't recall that now I know when I fired my m203 it would give off that smell that you get from the gas pushing the projectile through the barrel.

[@jpthegr8860]

Me too

[@AbsoluteApril]

Missed opportunity for the alien sound to be Blasto from Mass Effect "This one has forgotten whether its heat sink is over capacity" haha great review

[@jayvon96]

Amazing movie that shows the shift in America post 9/11 - one of the first films to show this imagery after 2001

[@Jeffrey314159]

It exploits 9/11 imagery in a cynical vile way befitting a creep like Spielberg

[@kathyjacques2688]

If I had been the invading aliens, Dakota Fanning’s screaming would have inspired me to take a closer look at uninhabited planets

[@FrenchFryCheese04]

What

[@jules-yi8rn]

You're killing me with your riff🤣! I remember Scary Movie 4 when they skewered this flick and it had me rolling. It's an easy movie to find flaws with but it's still good. The kids were the worst, tho...for real🙂.

[@phildrewsomething]

Wasn't Nelly in the Tripod? lol

[@touchuvclazz]

It was Chingy

[@majorhoolahan]

The scene in that Scary Movie of "This is Detroit... and this is Detroit after the attack" is the only joke from that garbage franchise that I still find somewhat funny.

[@seraphin-e]

This was one of the first films I saw in the cinema. Watching it now, I don't know how younger me didn't get scared lol

[@jtwangster]

I literally look like 🤣. The timing of WHAT?! OKAY! At 11:50 has me crying. TheNewBee is my favorite form of self care.

[@KevinRAAMAAAGE]

I used to mimic the blaring sound with my cello when I was in gradeschool

[@EE-xb4sr]

The only thing that could have made me love this movie even more was had they used sound #2 for the alien thingies 😁

[@pinkimietz3243]

😀 I was thinking the same thing.

[@TheyfoundRickGrimes]

Lol 😂

[@The_Cosmic_Jellyfish]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!! You just reviewed one of my favorite movies!!!!

[@derekllewellyn6663]

My favorite part of the same time as the other one more than most history books documentary about biography history books documentary about the other day they are I like movie my birthday before News be there TV show NBC channel and pay pal picture of the same time years before New DVD releases on Facebook messenger key magic New dream key new number of maze looks like new DVD

[@calebr8131]

The lil John bit got me 😂

[@faustlove]

I cannot stand Tom Cruise but, some of his movies are quite good. This is one of them. Remaking classic sci-fi movies is risky business to be sure but, this is a good one. 👍 It's pretty accurate to say that mankind's worst enemy will always be himself. The angry mob that takes the car is a fine example of humanity under pressure.

[@RaefonB]

Risky Business - I see what ya did there ;)

[@lynziewithaz5491]

An example of Tom remaking a classic that did not go well… The Mummy.

[@faustlove]

@@lynziewithaz5491 OMG... I completely forgot about that one!! Maybe my mind decided to block it out...😂 LBVS...Tom went off the deep end a while back!! Every time I see him giving an interview or just speaking about anything, he looks like he's ready to snap. I can't even get started on the Scientology thing 😒 Those people scare me! Peace everyone 😌

[@A_YouTube_Commenter]

Tom Cruise is the living embodiment of the word ,"cool". Fonzie built a time machine to learn coolness from Tom Cruise.

[@Jeffrey314159]

This movie sucks, it doesn't hold a candle to the George Pal version

[@BrinaFlautist]

I'm torn between Lil John's YEAH and La Cucaracha 😭

[@Em-wk5ns]

OW, my butthole 🤣🤣🤣 I can't. I choose number 3. If a alien machine sound like number 3, I will run as fast I can. 🏃🏻‍♀️🗯 Love from Switzerland 🇨🇭😘

[@melissar66]

Nailed that!! My thoughts exactly... and I enjoyed the movie! You make me laugh so damn much! Thank you for that! Look forward to the next review! 🖤💜💀

[@nikkibain4371]

I think this was the funniest one from you. The ‘yeaaaaauh’ sound was great. I want to watch this again now

[@shelby8101]

I remember being terrified of the tripods and their sound!

[@jimday7812]

@11:00 you missed your "Shawshank Redemption" opportunity of "Get busy livin' or get busy dyin". 🤣🤣🤣

[@popculture70]

The first act of this movie is really well done, but then it loses its way and starts getting silly. I would really like to see a faithful reproduction of the book, set in Victorian England. Maybe one day in the distant future.

[@maurizio2086]

@theJACK!!! Yes but the tv series is pretty bad and cheap in my opinion.

[@31webseries]

This looks better than I remember it being. Of course it could be the "What!"s you added every time the aliens were pissed lol. They should do an au version where their millions of years in the making plan was thwarted by some nerds on Google Earth.

[@mrvincentmontoya]

That Lil' Jon sounder is flippin hilarious!

[@MyJp1983]

We don't deserve you, thank you for everything you do!

[@Phylynqua1962]

Although I disliked this movie very much, I loved your review! Keep it up. Gymkata my friend!

[@hansgraichen8051]

The best part of waking up, a new NewBee video.

[@AlaFrigginBama]

“Lightning doesn’t strike in the same pla…. Oh sh*t!” 😂 As a resident of the southern gulf coast that’s our typical summer afternoon….lol. Blue skies one minute and then insane thunderstorms the next..with the occasional hurricane thrown in just to keep things interesting.

[@djhinton570]

Saw this late one night when my wife was already asleep. I had to get up and look out the window at one point to make sure no Tripods were in the area. Usually it would take reading a book to get into my head at that level.

[@raynes6286]

I just wished they’d done something with the HMS Thunderchild (or probably USS given the film), instead of the ferry scene. Though I get they kind of swapped the whole “final act of resistance that fails” bit with the helicopter and tank charge.

[@grapeshot]

Yeah another crazy scene is one that train flew by on fire.

[@TheyfoundRickGrimes]

Great film, great review - bloody hilarious!! Loved it 🛸🛸🛸 mind you, I am in trouble now as I laughed so loud and woke my husband up 🤣

[@grapeshot]

Yeah that gasoline tanker took out a whole city block. I've driven those 5000 gallon tankers when I was in the military and my grandfather drove and retired from SOHIO, he drove them also.

[@marie-helenemartel7147]

This is one of my favorite reviews Newbee. Some great humor in it. I regularily come back to watch it again.

[@Asianjames31]

Love the little aliens with masks! Great review Bee

[@DravenGal]

Am I the only one who noticed the similarities in the aliens to the ones in Independence Day?

[@norse_cat]

I remember the kids being the worst in this movie, especially Dakota Fanning's screaming lol

[@gsafadi2]

I hate ! Hate! HATE this kids! The boy was so annoying i was praying for his death every scene. And Dakota...jesus... know it all kid + screams + useless ... They made me side with the aliens.

[@scther4938]

Yeah she was quite annoying

[@davidogundipe4895]

She a little kid in a alien invasion, of course she’s going to scream because she’s scared

[@tonyabrookes9931]

I like this one, it holds up to many rewatches & remains very creepy! I appreciated seeing Tom Cruise being "flawed" and less than competent after he's had so many hero roles

[@wh4tnow]

i always loved this movie. when it came out,i was 8, and always scared me a decent bit as well as really fascinating me. i didn’t even know there was a previous adaptation’! i’ll have to give that one a watch.

[@katjosephperez8772]

I had the best freakin scream as a child. Last time I used it was in high school for plays and my indie film (I was off screen, and it scared me every time while editing. Even if I just heard it. It’s so shrill). I can feel the ability to do it still. Damn. I wish I watched this earlier today when I was alone in a house with a big yard. I could’ve tried it… wait, the pets would freak out. I want a place to scream in San Antonio. OH! MY CAR!!! Corollas are great at keeping in sound, and the fabric seats shouldn’t make it too loud

[@PapaTaurean]

Invasion from the Planet Krunk.... YEEAHYAH!!!!

[@coolnessap]

You seriously deserve alot more followers

[@daver4347]

My vote 🗳 La Coka Racha . The first time watching is thinking the peanut allergy was going to come in play later on in the movie especially after seeing the original movie but I guess that scene just was there to show that he doesn’t know his own kids 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@SmileyAdventures]

“Did Adam Levine stub his toe out there?” I truly appreciate your content.

[@clarytehsage4853]

Awwww Yeah! You know how to make a Monday 1000% better! ^__^ Nice to see the aliens again, I was worried about them. heheh

[@cxjar5890]

The tripods sound is like a ship's horn.

[@michaelthomas5433]

Those darn Duke boys are at it again.

[@rosennadstygia9890]

Could that noise coming from the Tripods be the elusive 'brown note'?

[@Highice007]

I liked the 1950's movie better, but this one was not bad, and the grandparents were the stars of the 50's version. The best sceans were the really dark molments, such as the attack on the fairy, the massive bodies in the river, fire train, and the human fertilizer scean. Really scary molments. 😨 They just seemed surreal and a unique style in any Spielburg movie.

[@seanryan3020]

Ngl, the aliens would have been smart to use La Cucaracha. Would have lulled the silly humans into a false sense of security before zappin' 'em!

[@MorriganAtwood]

Robbie making it at the end STILL infuriates me.

[@driveapanzerpal7472]

As much as people hate the kids in this film, I actually don't mind it because it's how actual kids would act, screaming, crying and acting out because of all the traumatic shit happening. Yeah the screaming is annoying but kids scream and act irrational

[@me-thebusta610]

P.S ya know Robbie if you had any balls you'd go out there and get our car back . Lol

[@howaboutno2594]

Hey I'm a big fan of your videos, I’d love to listen to your perspective some more newer horror movies:)

[@YuzuruA]

I find the writing so clumsly - in the beginning we are supposed to find him irresponsible because he doesn´t want to take a double (12h?) shift! and then that he is irresponsible because he got to the kids late... even though how was he going to take the kids if he were going to take a shift? It is more of tropes than an actual character flaw

[@connorexe7326]

This movie petrified me as a kid, gave me the strongest fear of extraterrestrials. Then I played AVP on the PS3 and got over it.

[@johnlocke9437]

I want to watch this movie recut with Lil Jon soundbites every time the tripods do anything.

[@LordoftheFliers]

Loved the Wacky Wall Walker reference.

[@A_YouTube_Commenter]

I too ended up staring at the sandwich droop.

[@me-thebusta610]

This movie is a guilty pleasure. This show rules though

[@agnethaladuff8559]

I like this movie, the Alien walking pods, advance weapons and horn (Sound) were awesome and chilling. The visual special effects and story gows very well with that they had to work with at the time which is awesome. As for your review, you made very good use of jokes, sound input and opinion which stands out from other reviewers and I like it very much. You so totally rock Bee Man.

[@jpthegr8860]

The iverm- joke was really funny

[@eldritchmorgasm4018]

Very underrated WotW-represantation & movie in general, the Tripods are perfect, especialy their "gotcha, bitch" horn! Spielberg basicly made a horror-movie, because the threat is very believable in us not having a single chance against them directly. "Skyline" isn't a better movie, but the biomechanical Lovecraftian Invasion was quite impressive, humanity being fucked. Both better horror-movies than most shit today. Tripods in that BBC version are cool too, though that 3-part mini-show kinda sucks for the most part. About Tom Cruise, I like him the most in not so typical roles, for him, probably. - Last Samurai - War of the Worlds - Collateral - Minority Report - Tropical Thunder (I think it's called!?) "Last Samurai & WotW" are probably his best acting roles.

[@traceyms1971]

😜For that price I expect it to withstand an EMP

[@claires1063]

@@theNewBee You're actually completely right. It's a mechanical watch. It doesn't have a battery and would not be affected by an EMP. I assume there was simply a lack of communication between costuming and writing. (I actually thought you were intentionally joking when you called it cheap, not making fun of you or anything)

@@claires1063 Probably a call back to the original where everyone's watches stopped after becoming magnetized.

[@pettytyrant2720]

As a fan of the book this is one I really dislike. Not for change of time or location, or giving the main character a family, or that the aliens aren't Martians and come up out of the ground and don't look anything like their disgusting book description. Not for those reasons. The tripods are superb, the directing jaw dropping at times (the seeming single shot in the car as they flee is a peak of creative direction), the sound design is spot on. The problem is Wells book, like much of his work, was really an excuse for him to do his favourite thing - to complain about society. The book is full of social criticism, about everyone, the working class, the middle classes and the rich all get pelters via the Artilleryman character, the idea of Empire and military power gets a kicking as our own morality in war and empire building is compared to the Martians and the direct question raised, what's the difference between us really? Religion comes in for its fair share of criticism too via the Curate. And humanity as a whole takes a pounding for its tendency to revert to savagery and independent survival at all costs over any common good or sense of morality when stripped of comfort and luxury, via the brothers story of what happens in London and its mass exodus of people. The only thing Wells actively promotes about humanity that is positive is science, and he still makes barbed comment on science's proponents and their resistance to new ideas with Ogilivy's definitive claim that nothing can be alive on Mars. By comparison the films story and script is utterly cowardly and removes all such social critique, it has visual nods to 9/11 but they are appropriately, and by necessity, deferential in their presentation, not criticising or comparing humanities cruelty to the invaders. The army are seen as heroes and defenders, not the over arrogant, over confident army of the books who think a few shells into the Martian pit will soon sort them out and show them who is boss. Instead, we get a very weak social commentary on single fathers, an annoying and frankly stupid subplot about the son wanting to go fight and somehow surviving the seemingly impossible when he does go to fight, and the main character, the books narrator, here not only has to be proactive and try to save his daughter and take down a tripod on his own, he also has to be the one to point out to the army what going on with the dying Martians. They were too afraid to make this the tale of someone who is just a witness and survivor, not a hero. So the film falls into a ton of cheap sentimentality and tropes and film conventions that are directly at odds with its source material.

[@toddthechimeralinguist]

"Plot Starman" is much catchier than "plot armor".

This is one of the few remakes that I think is just as good as the original.

[@geoffreyfletcher6976]

Any chance that Spielberg has a version that actually shows E.T. piloting the tripods in this movie? And that in truth, E.T. was just a scout sent to Earth before before this invasion, but got sidetracked by crossdressing and candy.
