How its hangin': sick, bored and still randy
Today we're serving up something unusual on our menu, a delicious bit of Camembert. It's tasty on a cracker, its War of the Worlds...
Ya know, I rarely like any movie Tom Cruise is in. I can't figure out if its because I can't stand his acting or the fact that he's a real nutter. Scientology oh yeah, there's a cult that needs some koolaid. *snicker*
So I started watching the movie this morning (The internet is a beautiful thing Yo-ho) thinking it would be a real stinker. I had heard the hype, I had read the book, so I knew it wasn't gonna be the story I was familiar with.
Instead what I got, was a pretty good popcorn flick if I do say so myself. Great action bits, some signature Spielberg special effects, and some really frightening aliens.
So I give it 4 out of 5 cheese wheels. I gave it a 4 cause it could have stayed more true to the book and updated some of the elements of the story.
And umm, the geeky part of me couldn't help but wonder how the Doctor might have stopped the aliens...
Hamster: You are SUCH a geek sometimes
Careful, or I'll stick you in a picture with Seventies Porn Colin AND make you wear the coat...
Hamster: *flinches* Ok I take it back, I meant EVIL geek
That's better. |
