The 50s version of WotW used to scare the hell out of me, man. I remember being so disturbed by the scene toward the end, where all those people are huddled in the church singing hymns, basically just waiting to die while the world is being blown up around them.

Really plays up the central themes of the film and it's downright horrifying.

>>79486136
the book was a bit retarded desu (or just out of taste/obsolete, since it was writen in the early 20th century) it actually made the warfare between humans and advanced aliens more Symmetric than a complete extermination (one british warship even destroyes 3 tripods before being sunk).

I thought that shit was kind of stupid, but I guess Spielberg or somebody thought it would be cool for there to be a scene of them sprouting out of the ground. Hell, I don't know, maybe it's in the original novel.

>buried ships (probably not buried but actually teleported through the lightning storm with the riders too, they are aliens, they would figure a way to transport large objects as humans are developing this today)
>probably because they don't have the ability to thoroughly observe and study the smallest details of the planet and/or bacteria is an alien lifeform to them that doesn't exist where they live
>because bacteria are the most fluid and adaptive organisms known to man, the aliens are easy prey because of weak immunity system, and since they are living creatures themselves made of organic material, they will automatically attract bacteria which will easily infect them because no immunity (look up how native indians suffered massive epidemics through bacteria brought by European Conquestadors who had immunity to the diseases)

This. Story, characters, everything else was complete garbage. The depiction of aliens as super-efficent resource harvesters was great, though.

Honorable mention to The Fourth Kind, as well. Story not so great and, although the alien concept wasn't anything new, the execution was spooky as fuck.

Good taste.

Monsters was actually really, really good for a low budget sci fi film. The idea that some random extraplanetary/galactic lifeforms found their way to earth via satellite and become a serious threat but one that humanity in that specific region learns to live around is neat.

It must have been a real bitch for those aliens to first travel through space. They're natural environment is 1000 times more pressurized than ours. We might as well already be living in a vacuum relative to what they had to bring up into space.

The whole human ubermensch aspect is really boring to me at this point in sci fi, having a common ancestor, separated by billions of years, mass extinctions and completely different environments does not mean that the space jockeys look like actual humans, that is beyond retarded, sure they could look somewhat similar, bipedal etc and simply seeded a planet but it's clear that that they were pushing the idea that humans and space jockeys are very closely related.

Spoilers the Speaker of the Dead series ends with the revelation that the planet the three books took place on was engineered by race that communicates via chemicals and if I remember correctly it was either implied or outright stated that they were a sentient race of viruses. The first time they met humanity they met a small human scout ship. They radioed the chemical blueprint for heroine and moved their own ship to intercept the humans, but were seemingly surprised when the humans moved away and didn't let the intercept happen. The aliens obviously just assumed radioing a chemical meant the receiving end immediately injected that chemical into themselves, implying that's the only way they know how to communicate. They didn't reveal however whether making the human crew feel happy with a dose of heroine was either a standard greeting or a means of incapacitating them.

True reason? It's because Sci-Fi reflects the public fears. In the old War of the Worlds the Aliens represented the Russians, being faceless, merciless, relentless invaders. In the latest movie it was to reflect the fear of terrorist attacks, the Aliens attack buried from within our civilisation amongst us.

Welp, as I recall:

>they had some biblical-like marks on their backs
>symbols they made upon Mel Gibsons house looks like human depictions of stars etc.
>ayy gets rekt by (holy) water
>ayys are first defeated near the Holy Land
>no visible representation of advanced tech

I genreally fin this idea fine and pretty fun. I'd like to believe Shamalayabingdong had that idea.

But the thing about Signs is - the movie is mostly a story about crisis of faith, not ayyliums.
The main thing about invaders is that everyone in this movie assume they're something else. From "russians", through aliens or demons, to some prankster kids. Everyone saw what they wanted to see.

it was irrational because if they meant me any harm I could kick all of their asses. I'm a big human meathead compared to them.

I really want a game with that kind of atmosphere and mystery to it, related to Aliens.

I had hopes that The Bureau: XCOM Declassified would be that game, but I was so very disappointed.
