Dead bodies on the river? Maybe they came from another ferry boat, or a downed 747, or they were driving across a bridge when the aliens knocked it down... Lots of reasons could explain them.

Sure it could. It could be the exact same story all the way through, with just an altered ending.

I don't think they expected the humans to be produced, as they were there before humans existed.

That makes sense. Fair enough, I still didn't like the film. The ending really was poor, I'd have enjoyed it as a novel ending but Spielberg made it far too abrupt and anti-climactic.

<font color = lightgreen>The aliens dying suddenly wasn't anticlimactic. The aliens were only incidental to the main story...or did we see the same movie? [img]graemlins/beigesmilewinkgrin.gif[/img]

Not really great, but better than many I have seen.</font>

<font color = lightgreen>The movie was about Tom Cruise and his children. The fact that aliens began attacking is simply bad luck. [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img] </font>

I saw the original movie, I remember how the aliens died. That was original back then.

I'm going to see it tonight.

Luvian 07-03-2005 02:50 PM

I saw it, and I only had time to sleep 3 hours. My head is killing me...

It was as I expected. I went to see it with my brother and father. My father commented that there was not enough action, I told him it wasn't an action movie, and he replied that they made it look like one in the adds.

I guess he's right. Maybe that's why many people are disapointed.

Well, with all the debris they showed in the ads, I certainly expected more fighting, action I suppose, than there was.

Saw it tonight... not very impressed, it's always fun to watch the earth being destroyed, but having Tom Cruise ruunig through the 96% of the movie and not getting to see him killed in a horrible way is just dissapointment... [img]smile.gif[/img]
