Podcasts about The War of the Worlds

David Robert Mitchell’s The End of Oak Street drops an ordinary family into extraordinary circumstances, forcing them to focus all their energy on surviving— and maybe, just maybe, learning to understand each other along the way. That structure, combined with Oak Street’s Spielbergian spectacle, pointed us toward 2005’s War of the Worlds, which fuses H.G. Wells’ 1898 novel to images and emotions that draw on the attacks of 9/11. How that approach holds up a quarter-century removed from the events that inspired it is up for discussion this week, along with where War of the Worlds falls on the Steven Spielberg Alien-Encounter Continuum, and just how close that sentimental ending comes to ruining the movie entirely. Then in Feedback, a listener, with an assist from Orson Welles, invites us to get galaxy-brained on the nature of homage as it relates to cinema generally and this podcast specifically. Please share your thoughts about War of the Worlds, The End of Oak Street, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

The Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2026 is here! Hoorah! It's the biggest arts festival in the world and MusicalTalk is there - as always - to see what's on offer for the lover of musical theatre (that's you!) and to provide extensive in-depth coverage of the best shows. This week, we look at the revival of War of the Worlds (On a Budget), the multi-star winning hit musical giving a unique, hilarious and brilliantly song-filled take on HG Wells' famous story.  Cue the cute martians....! 

In light of the dismal Disclosure Day (2026), we return to two films that show Spielberg tackling alien visitation (or invasion) stories while at the height of his powers. Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) and The War of the Worlds (2005) are decades apart, yet united by a single image and devotion to their audiences. The first is as Disneylike as Pinocchio; the second conjures memories of 9/11. Both show domesticity under great strain as families and infrastructures break down; one ends with hope while the other simply stops. Incredible bumper music by John Deley. The War of the Worlds is based on H. G. Wells's 1898 novel, which you can purchase here. Please subscribe to the show and consider leaving us a rating or review.

We're back with a final alien invasion film and this one's a doozy: Steven Spielberg's post-9/11 adaptation of War of the Worlds, starring Tom Cruise as a Regular Guy who has to save his family when vicious aliens attack Earth. Of all the films we've done this month, this is both the most realistic and most frightening. We will be on break for the month of August, but shall return with an entire month dedicated to Mel Brooks (!) as well as a fun new bonus series. As always, thank you all so much for your support!

EPISODE 168 | Eating the Onions: War of the Worlds & Other Scares In an environment of experimental fiction, metanarratives, postmodern satire, disinformation, deep fakes, and fake news, a sizeable portion of the content gobbling audience takes things that are not true as being actually true. Online, this happens with alarming regularity with articles published by satirical news site The Onion; so often, in fact, that there's a term for this phenomenon – it's called Eating the Onion. The subjects of intentional disinformation, deep fakes, and fake news are one thing, but what we're looking at here at times when something that was never intended to be taken seriously (though it used real world tropes and structures for narrative effect), were accidentally thought to be base din reality. And people quite rather lost their shit. Like the 1938 Orson Welles broadcast of The War of the Worlds. But there are other instances as well. Review us here or on IMDb.

During a Mexican shark dive, five friends are ambushed after discovering cartel cocaine. Trapped in a shark cage, Tatiana and Kaley are forced by the cartel to retrieve a bag of drugs on the seafloor. Battling legendary Great White sharks, dwindling air, and armed killers, the survivors mount a brutal fight to outsmart their captors and escape. Marc Zirogiannis talks, once again, with famed Independent Filmmaker and Director Jesse V. Johnson in the week before the opening of the new action, shark thriller, "Above & Below". Jesse V Johnson's current release THIEVES HIGHWAY (Jan. 2026), starring Aaron Eckhart, is on the January 2026 The New York Times Top 5 "What to Watch" list. From Collider: THIEVES HIGHWAY is not only now available on Hulu, but it has shot to the number one spot on the streamer's Top 10 list. His previous film with Eckhart, CHIEF OF STATION (2024), also starring Olga Kurylenko and Alex Pettyfer, was #2 on Hulu (Aug. 2024) and outperformed on all platforms. Johnson had his major TV directing debut with Rise of the Merlin: The Pendragon Cycle (Jan. 2026), where he helmed multiple large-scale battle sequences and key emotional scenes, directing Episode 3 and the action-packed finale, Episode 7. His films are often hard-edged and feature imaginative and visceral action but also career-highlight performances from actors, his films are character driven and known to contain complex and emotional performances. Johnson's standout film came in 2019 with AVENGEMENT, the British crime thriller starring Scott Adkins. His Debt Collectors films, THE DEBT COLLECTOR (2018) and DEBT COLLECTORS (2020), starring Scott Adkins and Louis Mandylor, have generated an enormous cult following. Johnson is also highly respected for his critically acclaimed female-centric thrillers: BOUDICA (2023), starring Olga Kurylenko, and HELL HATH NO FURY (2021), starring Nina Bergman. Johnson has been a prominent figure in the stunt world since TOTAL RECALL (1990). He has performed stunts on films including WAR OF THE WORLDS, TERMINATOR 3: RISE OF THE MACHINES, and AVATAR. His feature debut as writer and director came with THE PACKAGE (2012), starring "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and Dolph Lundgren. He has gone on to direct movies with some of the world's most prominent action stars, including Antonio Banderas, Aaron Eckhart, John Malkovich, Thomas Jane, Scott Adkins, Dolph Lundgren, Olga Kurylenko and WWE superstar, Steve Austin. ABOVE & BELOW is a 95-minute thriller directed by Jesse V. Johnson and scheduled for release in select theaters on July 29, 2026. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This week on Forgotten Cinema, Forgotten Summer continues with "War of the Worlds", Steven Spielberg's intense adaptation of the H.G. Wells classic.After covering "Flight of the Navigator", discussing "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" in their Lead Up series, releasing a Patreon-exclusive episode on "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial", and reviewing "Disclosure Day", it only felt right for the Mikes to tackle another one of Spielberg's unforgettable alien films.Both Mike Butler and Mike Field love "War of the Worlds". From Spielberg's masterful direction to the relentless pacing and unforgettable set pieces, the film remains just as gripping today as it was upon release. Even after multiple viewings, Butler finds himself on the edge of his seat throughout much of the movie.Of course, the Mikes still have a few nitpicks. Cruise's portrayal of Ray as an almost unbelievably irresponsible father feels exaggerated during the first half of the film, though both agree it ultimately pays off as his character grows over the course of the story. Butler also revisits one of the classic criticisms of the story itself: how could an incredibly advanced alien civilization spend (at least!) centuries preparing to invade Earth without accounting for the planet's microscopic dangers?One of the film's highlights for both Mikes is Tim Robbins' unforgettable performance, which leads to one of the movie's most tense and memorable sequences. They also discuss the controversial ending that has divided audiences for years. While both are ultimately satisfied with it, Butler understands why some viewers struggle with the family's reunion. However, the Mikes point out that both the ending and the aliens' ultimate fate come directly from H.G. Wells' original novel.Thrilling, suspenseful, and packed with unforgettable moments, "War of the Worlds" remains one of Spielberg's finest modern blockbusters and a standout entry in the alien invasion genre.What do you think of "War of the Worlds"?

Send us Fan MailThe wild thing about War Of The Worlds (2005) is how quickly it earns our trust and how loudly it tests it later. We sit down on Heat Watching and walk through Spielberg's alien invasion thriller beat by beat, starting with that terrifying, razor-tight opening stretch where ordinary people do the only “heroic” thing available: make one decent choice, then make the next one fast. The sound design, the crowd behavior, the dust-covered aftermath, and the sense of public systems failing all feel brutally real, and we talk about why the movie's 9/11 allegory still hits.Then we get into the stuff that makes us argue. Why give Ray a specific job that never pays off? Why does the timeline feel vague when the movie needs us to feel the long grind of survival? And what is the son's arc actually doing besides forcing a few plot turns? We also talk performances: Tom Cruise is surprisingly great as a messy, selfish dad, while Dakota Fanning runs circles around almost everyone and keeps the emotion honest even when the script gets shaky.Finally, we go straight for the big debate: the basement detour with Tim Robbins, the rushed sprint to the finish, and a climax that hinges on the common cold instead of a character-driven payoff. If you love Spielberg, disaster movies, alien invasion films, or film criticism that's equal parts admiration and frustration, you'll have opinions here.

Josh, Garrett, and David close out Spielberg in Space month with War of the Worlds — the one where the aliens finally turn hostile, Tom Cruise plays peak divorce-dad energy, and the hosts argue about whether the most unlikable protagonist in the Spielberg canon actually makes the movie work.Follow So Many Sequels at somanysequels.com and @somanysequelspod on Instagram.

It's time to wrap up Spielberg Season 2 with the man's deeply cynical alien invasion film War of the Worlds. Sarah and MJ discuss the movie as an allegory for 9/11, refute even more schmaltz claims, talk about if there is a defenitive pandemic movie, and yes, brush up against Spielberg's latest release, Disclosure Day.

Happy New Spielberg Month to those who celebrate! To usher in the release of Steven Spielberg's newest film, Disclosure Day, we will be covering some of his most controversial films from over the years. We are beginning with his 2005 alien invasion film, War of the Worlds starring Tom Cruise. This would be their second and final collaboration together. Why was the response to this film less enthusiastic? What would Spielberg's and Cruise's careers have looked like if they kept working together? Is Dakota Fanning the Patrick Mahomes of child actors? Come and rewatch with us!

TPCCafe Radio Presents Classic Variety: War Of The Worlds

THEY'RE ALREADY HERE...War of the Worlds Full Length Watch Alongs & Early Access:   / thereelrejects   Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at https://www.SHOPIFY.com/rejects Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ John Humphrey & Jackie Bonsignore react to War of the Worlds (2005), Steven Spielberg's terrifying alien invasion epic starring Tom Cruise as Ray Ferrier, Dakota Fanning as Rachel Ferrier, and Justin Chatwin as Robbie Ferrier. From the unforgettable lightning storm that signals the beginning of the invasion to the first emergence of the towering alien Tripods, Spielberg crafts one of the most intense disaster films ever made. We react to the iconic Tripod horn, the ferry attack, the plane crash sequence, the devastating destruction of humanity, Ray's struggle to protect his children, and the terrifying basement scenes with Tim Robbins' paranoid Harlan Ogilvy. The film stars Tom Cruise (Mission: Impossible, Top Gun: Maverick) as Ray Ferrier, Dakota Fanning (Man on Fire, The Equalizer 3) as Rachel Ferrier, Justin Chatwin (Shameless, Dragonball Evolution) as Robbie Ferrier, Tim Robbins (The Shawshank Redemption, Mystic River) as Harlan Ogilvy, and Miranda Otto (The Lord of the Rings, 24) as Mary Ann. Based on H.G. Wells' classic science fiction novel and directed by Steven Spielberg (Jurassic Park, Jaws, Saving Private Ryan), War of the Worlds blends blockbuster spectacle with genuine sci-fi horror, delivering some of the most memorable alien invasion imagery ever put on screen.

War of the Worlds by Orson Welles is perhaps the most famous radio play on Earth. But what's left out of the story is where the play was set — a real, little town in New Jersey. It took decades, but the people who live in Grover's Mill have come to embrace their part in one of the biggest media hoaxes of all time. In fact, they've turned it into something to be proud of.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

All good things must come to an end, like for example our War of the Worlds retrospective. But at lease we're going out on the lowest of the lows, the 2025 but filmed in 2020 Ice Cube "screenlife" adaptation. Considered by many to be one of the worst movies ever made with such a bizarre and terrible execution it's kind of hard to stay focused on one thing at a time when talking about it.

Aliens continue to be real on our journey through three very distinct War of the Worlds adaptations. This week it's the second collaboration between Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise after Minority Report, War of the Worlds 2005. Interesting premise and time, post 9/11, Tom Cruise in his weirdest (publicially) era and a director who'd made two exceptional extra terrestrial propeties prior to this. This should be fantastic!

ALIENS ARE REAL. I mean, statistically the chances of there being life in an ever expanding universe is pretty much a lock. And to celebrate that and the return of Steven Spielberg to making an alien movie with Disclosure Day in 2026 we're going to take a look at three adaptations of the War of the Worlds, starting with the 1953 classic. An absolute astounding achievement in model work, design, alien monster suits, explosions and guys being stoic then running around for a bit.
