Looks fantastic! I was in London in late August, and had a ticket to an interactive stage experience of War of the Worlds - more than a stage, a presentation in a 22,000 square foot building. It was canceled at the very last minute and I received a phone call and a refund. Wonder if the cancellation was due to conflict with this.
I loved that movie as a kid.
THey used those same models in “Robinson Caruso on Mars”.
I saw that movie again a year or so ago, the first time since it was originally in theaters. I was shocked at how I still thought it was a pretty good story. It’s much better than the Sci-fi movies of its day.
The special effects were awesome for their time......................
HMS Thunderchild, allegedly based on this ship based on Well’s description of it as an ‘ironclad ram’. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Polyphemus_(1881)
