When H.G. Wells penned the classic 1898 science fiction novel The War of the Worlds, he could scarcely have predicted that in the futuristic year of 2025, a man named Ice Cube would be starring in a desktop cinema adaptation of the novel. Even Orson Welles, with all his imagination, when he produced the 1938 Mercury Theatre radio broadcast of The War of the Worlds, couldn't have conceived that in 2025, a tech company called Amazon would create a Prime Video adaptation of the story featuring a surveillance expert that utilizes the Amazon Prime delivery service in order to save the world. No one could've predicted what dropped onto Amazon Prime Video on July 30, 2025. Due to popular demand, we fast-tracked this episode so we can tell what we watched so that you never have to watch it!

H.G. Wells WAR OF THE WORLDS is one of those works that seems to be woven into the fabric of popular culture. The novel was published in 1898 and for over a hundred years, it has come back to us in some shape or form.  The first being the infamous Orsen Welles radio broadcast in 1938 that led to mass hysteria that sparked a debate about the power and responsibility of the media.  1953 brough the first film adaptation directed by Byron Haskins and in 2005 Stephen Spielberg tried his hand at the tale.  There have been several more movie adaptations and the seasons of the UK series based on it.   In 2025, do we need another attempt at telling this story?  Listen to the Necromaniacs and find out!   Intro:    “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro: “”– Flock of Seagulls

War of the Worlds (2005) is on trial this week. Did Spielberg catch lightning in a bottle or would it be better left buried? Alex says this is a modern yet faithful adaptation of the seminal novel by H.G. Wells that deftly weaves horror into the blockbuster experience. Dave feels a saccharine ending as well as odd plot changes mean the impact of the original novel is diluted and the film itself is forgettable. All this with a quiz about other takes on this much-adapted work and an impression of Richard Burton. www.filmsontrial.co.uk/274

This week, we're taking a look at the new Amazon Prime Video movie, War Of The Worlds starring Ice Cube, Eva Longoria and Clark Gregg. Ice Cube plays, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officer Will Radford as he works for a government surveillance program that can monitor every person on Earth. His relationship with his pregnant daughter Faith and son Dave is strained due to his use (abuse?) of the program to constantly monitor them. While helping FBI agents try to find a mysterious hacker, known as "Disruptor", meteors begin striking all over the planet. When large machines emerge from the meteorites and start attacking humans, Will and his friend Sandra (Eva Longoria) from NASA conclude it is an alien invasion. Can Will stop spying on his own kids long enough to figure out a way to end the invasion? Tune and and find out how we made fun of this cinematic disaster!

Comedian, content creator, super film buff, and friend of the show Fred Asquith chats with George about Spielberg, why WAR OF THE WORLDS and THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION make a great double bill, and why it's going to be Dwayne Johnson vs Adam Sandler at the next Oscars.Buy your tickets for Pulp Kitchen's LIVE 200th episode: https://www.leicestersquaretheatre.co...

Not a great franchise tbh! But here we are at the end anyway, at least the end for now. It'd be funny if they just called the sequel to this legasequel I STILL KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER. Just keep it going.Alex has seen no new movies this week. Ben watched WAR OF THE WORLDS, THE IRON LADY, THE SECT, BRING HER BACK, THE BROTHERS GRIMM, PROVIDENCE, MERMAID LEGEND, PAVEMENTS, BABY INVASION, SHIFTY, HIGH TENSION, HIS MOTORBIKE HER ISLAND, THE NEW WORLD, NOUVELLE VAGUE, and HIGHEST 2 LOWEST. Cinephilia is a sickness.Next week we're rocking and rolling... with laughter!

Ice Cube saves the world from aliens via Amazon Prime and Microsoft Teams?! You all demanded it, so Paul, June, and Jason got their butts into the studio to cover all the mouse-clicking, keyboard-clacking, and front-facing video calls in the new War of the Worlds reboot. They discuss the Tesla ambulance, how Ice Cube plays a straight up stalker, the heroic Amazon Prime Air Drone, the packing tape tourniquet, the bonkers computer drop-down menu options, if the aliens want our nude pics, and so much more. Plus, the gang debate the correct way to pronounce "data" and Paul goes out of his way to clarify he knows his own children. • Go to hdtgm.com for tour dates, merch, FAQs, and more• Have a Last Looks correction or omission?

Zur Verteidigung der Welt haben wir uns Gäste eingeladen. Die wunderbaren Christiane Attig (Wendeltreppe ins Nichts) und Daniel Brockmeier (Spätfilm) haben uns das nicht ganz so wunderbare Werk War of the Worlds mitgebracht. Anschließend werden wir aber versöhnt mit der Nackten Kanone, Thursday Murder Club und No one will save you, von denen wir unterschiedlich begeistert sind. Christiane und Daniel berichten von uns vom Status ihrer Star Trek Discovery und Tom Hanks Komplettsichtungen. Es gibt natürlich auch wieder Spiele, den Christiane führt und in die Geheimnissee von Death Stranding 2 ein.

If you ever needed a reminder that some remakes shouldn't exist, 2025's War of the Worlds delivers it in spades. This is not just a bad movie—it's the kind of cinematic faceplant that makes you wonder how anyone signed off on it. The acting is flat-out terrible, with Ice Cube headlining in a role that feels less like a performance and more like someone wandered onto set after being told he was shooting a different movie. The whole thing reeks of miscasting, misdirection, and missed opportunities. The real insult, though, is how aggressively this film relies on the “Idiot Plot”, a story that only moves forward because every single character makes the dumbest possible choice at every possible moment. Characters stand around waiting to get vaporized, make suicidal detours for no reason, and never once act like actual human beings dealing with an alien apocalypse. It's not suspenseful, it's not dramatic—it's just aggravating to sit through. Visually and tonally, the film is stuck in a post-COVID hangover haze. The world feels small, tired, and drained of life, not in a gritty, artistic way, but in a “we shot this at our desks because we couldn't go outside” kind of way. The whole thing becomes an unintentional time capsule of how much the pandemic gutted creativity and ambition. Watching it is like staring into the ghost of an industry still trying to find its footing—and tripping over itself at every step. Ultimately, 2025's War of the Worlds isn't just a bad remake, it's a sad reminder of what happens when you try to drag a classic into the present without talent, vision, or even basic competence. It's noisy without being exciting, dumb without being fun, and joyless to the core. If the aliens really wanted to wipe us out, the fastest method would have been just screening this movie to humanity on loop.

This week, we review War of the Worlds (2025), director Rich Lee's modern, “screenlife” twist on H. G. Wells's iconic sci-fi thriller. Ice Cube stars as DHS agent Will Radford, juggling the chaos of a looming alien invasion and an invasive surveillance state — all through the lens of screens and apps. With Eva Longoria as the NASA ally Sandra, the film explores data privacy, government overreach, and digital surveillance. As meteors fall and alien machines emerge from every data center, the stakes go from father-daughter drama to a full-scale fight for humanity's informational lifeblood.Is this adaptation a surveillance-state nightmare or a cheeky tech‑centric rediscovery of a classic?

Ice Cube stars in a screenlife adaptation of H.G.

Steph, John, Steve & Dave put down their phones for screen time with Ice Cube and his (fictional) family! The War of the Worlds has been adapted many times since its first publication in 1898, and each adaptation represented the era in which it was created -- Famously as a radio show in 1938 and the first movie in 1953 when there were national fears of military invasion … then as a Spielberg film in 2005 when there was a national fear of terrorist invasion… And now in 2025 when there's a national fear of invasion of Privacy! It's Amazon Prime's feature length commercial – War of the Worlds!  Here's the rapid recap to catch you up!  Ice Cube plays Will Radford, DHS Agent and creepster dad who should have been DOGE'd out of his job, because he spends his day stalking his two estranged children – his pregnant daughter, Faith and his intense Gen-Z-er son Dave. When mysterious meteors crash into the Earth, it's up to these three plus Faith's fiancé and Amazon delivery driver, Mark as well as Eva Longoria (whose character's name I don't know and I couldn't quickly see it on Wikipedia, so I'm giving her as much attention as Will gives her in the movie, which is to say close to none) … Anyway, when machines from Mars rise out of the meteor craters, our heroes realize that the aliens are here to chew bubblegum and steal our data…and they are all out of bubblegum. So, in a shameless plot swipe from a totally different alien invasion movie, they have to upload a virus to the alien machines to put an end to the WAR OF THE WORLDS!!!Follow us onTwitter @CraptaculusInstagram @cinemacraptaculusIntro Music: "The Builder" - Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) | Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

It's rare that a movie gets embraced as a new classic in badness as quickly as Amazon's War of the Worlds, but hey -- they're known for their fast delivery. Maybe they're just the future of bad movies, "disrupting" the bad movie space with their boldly incompetent visions!

Ice Cube and his two adult-ish children are Earth's last line of defense in the latest incarnation of H.G. Wells seminal, sci-fi classic WAR OF THE WORLDS. Eva Longoria, Clark Gregg, and Andrea Savage are in it, too, as is voice artist hall-of-famer Jim Meskimon as the "POTUS." It's a "movie" that is: - 60% Reaction shots of Ice Cube, staring at a screen - 39% Reycled stock footage where the makers had to blur the faces of people who wouldn't want to be in this movie - 1% anything resembling an actual movie Find us on Instagram, BlueSky, Threads, etc. at Fake_Presidents to suggest a BETTER MOVIE FOR US TO COVER.

This week Mary and David explore more Cruise/McQuarrie films in their ongoing series McQuarrying and review the new War of the Worlds starring a heavily sedated Ice Cube. It's a film everybody's talking about... ...negatively so let Mary and David fansplain it for you.

This week on PodQuest we talk about the first episode of the new season of Peacemaker, Walnut has been playing Doom The Dark Ages, and he also watched the universally panned War of the Worlds (2025). Aside from that, we also chat about Hot Mulligan's newest album, The Batman (film), and Elevation (film). Continuing with our Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon challenge, our next book club pick is Muppet Treasure Island (1996), which included Tim Curry, who appeared in The Hunt for Red October. The goal of the game is each of us will pick a movie that includes an actor from the previous pick with the hopes that the final pick (number 6!) will include Kevin Bacon. Picks so far: Rogue One - Using Forest Whitaker who was in The Last Stand (Pre-Game pick) The Hunt for Red October - Using James Earl Jones Timestamps 00:00:00 - Intro 00:03:17 - Agenda 00:04:12 - Hot Mulligan Album 00:10:05 - Doom the Dark Ages 00:41:03 - Peacemaker S2 E1 00:53:46 - The Batman 01:02:31 - Elevation 01:10:49 - War of the Worlds (2025) 01:27:03 - Outro Support One-Quest https://www.Patreon.com/OneQuest Follow Us Email - Social@one-quest.com Twitter - @One_Quest Instagram - @One_Quest Facebook - OneQuestOnline Follow Chris on Twitter - @Just_Cobb Follow Richie on Twitter - @B_Walnuts Follow Drootin on Twitter - @IamDroot Check out Richie's streaming and videos!

Joel and Andy watch the 2025 film War of the Worlds, which at one point had a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. And, Ice Cube attempts to join them, but has some technical difficulties.

War of the Worlds is a 2005 American science fiction action-thriller film directed by Steven Spielberg and written by Josh Friedman and David Koepp, based on H. G. Wells' 1898 novel.  Tom Cruise stars in the main role alongside Dakota Fanning, Miranda Otto, and Tim Robbins, with narration by Morgan Freeman. It follows an American dock worker who must look after his children, from whom he lives separately, as he struggles to protect them and reunite them with their mother when extraterrestrials invade Earth and devastate cities with giant war machines. The film's score was composed by John Williams.

Bridget and Producer Mike are taking a break from the dystopian surveillance nightmare unfolding in their city of Washington, DC, to review Amazon's new War of the Worlds movie. It stars Ice Cube and is about a dystopian surveillance nightmare that unfolds in Washington, DC. Art imitates life! This movie is terrible, but it does raise questions like, "Is this even a movie?" It's also 90 minutes of nonstop propaganda for Amazon and surveillance technology. We had fun doing this! Let us know in Spotify's comments what you think, and what other movies you think we should review on the show. Or send us an email at hello@tangoti.com .

Michael and Abe discuss the recent Ice Cube vehicle, War of the Worlds. A screenlife movie where Cube saves the planet from the safety of his Amazon-brand life pod, using corporations to save humanity. It's recently gone viral for being terrible, so we figured we'd go for that sweet viral money.
