Obviously I did, I quoted your thoughts about the music and then I added short one-liners to your other complaints because I didn't want to type a paper.

dude, I'm saying that the music aspect isn't a big deal. you keep trying to make it sound like that was the sole reason that I didn't like the movie.

i'm done arguing about something so pointless to someone so ignorant (yeah, your status from uninformed rose to ignorant). I'm sure everyone else doesn't appreciate our bickering back and forth.

*SPOILERS THROUGHOUT THIS POST*


You forget the amount of time that is spent in the house basement, with Tim Robbins' character.
Now we assume that after the explosion, Robert dies. But because we know he doesn't, the assumption now is that he survives and leaves straight away with the crowds escpaing the onslaught. (Granted, most don't survive - But obviously at the end, we are assuming that he is part of the small number that does)....

Meanwhile, Cruise and his duaghter are holding up in the basement. Now from the time that Robert escapes (after the Humvee explosion) to the point where Cruise & daughter first leave the basement, and we see the red grass for the first time, and then add to that the time spent in the cage with the other survivors that the tripod has picked up for harvesting, and I think you could say that Robert had a pretty decent headstart towards Boston.

beer:

I don't like talking to walls, so I'm finished.

The problem is people do not have a bit of imagination. They've been spoiled. Always demanding answers for every small bit in the movie like its some kind of documentary for Chemist Students in a University. Its not. Its a freaking movie, and a suspense in that. Its not exactly star trek is it? Try putting all these details into 2 and half hours. That would have diverted the movie from the storyline and the concept of what Speilberg was trying to portray.

i kinda agree with coleman about the happy ending bs....how in the living crap did robert survive.........the only reasonable way that i think would be that he was capture by the tripods but somehow escape........ oOo:

Read the book.

I am going to spend four years in college studying War Of The Worlds

That's awesome, I loved the sounds in that movie.

did anyone notice how in the start all the electrical shit got fried? How come after the first tri-pod stands up, the guy is filming it on that camcorder?
