I loved that version of War of the Worlds! (I HATE the Tom Cruise version) – I had it as a kid on VHS, I watched it so many times I wore the tape out…

I had the joy to read the H.G Wells book for... must be soon 30 years ago (holy ghost) , and must say, neither movie beats that !
Though if I remember correct, the original movie follows better the storyline of the book. The new movie follows Tom Cruise instead.. :-D

I've read the book too - a great read!

(and just in case I haven't already said - that Skyray is fantastic, lovely work!)

Some pretty awesome work, there, Gary.. I like that a/c a lot.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
