The alien Tripods have been buried here on Earth for tens or hindreds of thousands of years until they are activated today. WTF?

WTF is right! Are you serious?! Geez, nothing like ripping the original story to shreds.

Peter Jackson...paging Peter Jackson! Pick up the white phone, please.

When I heard this point,
I kinda figured it's a
Scientology

kind of metaphor --
the tripods are buried here
in the movie, but

in life aliens
are "buried" within us all . . .
(in L. Ron's thinking).

I've no idea
if the whole film can be "read"
via Hubbard-think

(don't think I'll see it)
but bet it's consistent with
Scientology.
