Bill Bliss
2023-11-14 01:20:42 +0000 UTCI think the aliens pretty much died of the flu. The red stuff seemed to be like terraforming fertilizer.

2023-10-27 05:47:23 +0000 UTCCheck out independence day with will smith and jeff goldblum amazing alien invader movie
Chris Smith
2023-09-27 17:39:20 +0000 UTCThe book is really good too, Check out, Minority report- Tom cruise is the main actor. It’s crazy
Micah Anderson
2023-08-05 09:49:28 +0000 UTCWhats crazy about this movie is that it was originally a book and then a radio broadcast. The radio broadcast was so real people were losing their minds and thought we were actually under attack by aliens from Mars.
Andrew Nyberg
2023-07-26 05:27:57 +0000 UTCI watched this movie when I was like 12 years old and I remember being confused why Tom Cruise didnt just beat some sense into those kids. Also Im gonna keep recommending this lol would love a reaction to The Prestige. Top tier movie imo

2023-07-11 18:12:31 +0000 UTCThis film terrified me! I can’t watch it alone. I watched it again cause it was with you two 😂

2023-07-02 22:01:36 +0000 UTCAnother great sci fi thriller you guys should check out is called “Gravity” starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney. It camed out in 2013.
Antonio
2023-07-02 20:31:42 +0000 UTCCool trivia: the actor Orson Welles used to do a radio show where they would act out radio serials. He once did an adaptation of the H.G. Wells’ book “War of the Worlds” (same book this movie was based on) for radio in 1938 and people listening actually thought it was real and freaked out. It’s a notorious incident.
Shannon
2023-07-02 06:18:11 +0000 UTCI second the SIGNS recommendation! Amazing movie!
Shannon
2023-07-02 06:14:23 +0000 UTCThere is no way you guy haven’t seen top gun Maverick. (TopGun2) Maybe Tom cruise best movie

2023-07-02 02:30:15 +0000 UTCOMGOSH!! Thank you! I loved watching this movie with you two! ❤️ You are both just the sweetest. I’m bawling like a baby. Today is my 25th wedding anniversary and it just really hit home! On a side note. I grew up on a sailboat from age 7 and this was really scary. Lol. I used to worry about sinking 😬and sharks 🤪.
Merri Nielsen
2023-07-02 01:10:09 +0000 UTCI saw this at the drive-in when I was probably 11 or 12. It messed me up, for real. Not cause I feared an alien invasion, but because I was convinced we were ripe for an EMP attack. My dad convinced me we'd be cool without electricity cause we lived in the boonies, hunting, fishing, living like it's Little House on the Prarie. I miss him terribly.
Jake Martin
2023-07-01 21:54:58 +0000 UTCNot to mention a lot of people actually killed themselves out of fear and not wanting to live through the horror described on the radio.
Sean Zaccheo
2023-07-01 21:26:21 +0000 UTCGuys please consider watching the cornetto trilogy. It’s Shaun of the dead, Hot Fuzz, and The worlds end! They’re all fantastic!
Adam smith
2023-07-01 18:05:26 +0000 UTCHe made the right choice leaving Robby to go get Rachel. Robby is a liability.

2023-07-01 17:31:47 +0000 UTCThank you so much for an awesome request! It was super fun watching this one! So glad you enjoyed it with us as well! Have a Happy 4th! ♥️
Asia and BJ
2023-07-01 16:27:35 +0000 UTCGive Minority Report a try. Also Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise.
Karim
2023-07-01 14:45:52 +0000 UTCThere was a newer War of the Worlds series that came out that I think was originally supposed to be a movie. It was pretty good as well.

2023-07-01 14:40:32 +0000 UTCTrue, Maybe germs are unique to Earth though? If so, maybe they overlooked it as a problem.
Luke Barron
2023-07-01 13:42:28 +0000 UTCHave to disagree, found NOPE to be a really boring story. Too slow, too much actors staring at each other.

2023-07-01 13:35:51 +0000 UTCI always think it's funny that these superior beings didn't figure out germ theory or infrared lol

2023-07-01 07:54:54 +0000 UTCAsia and BJ, Ross here and I LOVED watching this with y’all. 🍿 When I first saw it, it freaked me the fudge out. I never thought I’d say it, but thank God for bacteria! 😵💫 😜 It was great to watch it with y’all and seeing the first time reaction. The soundtrack is intense for me and this was brilliant, built up emotions…soundtrack is so important. I think Steven Spielberg did an amazing job directing this, he creates so many emotions within a short span. I believe that is one of my favorite things about the movie. Excitement, laughter, wtf moments, terrified, anxious…and relief at the end. Thanks so much y’all! I really love your channels!! —Ross ☺️
Ross Johnston
2023-07-01 07:07:50 +0000 UTCI just noticed that the mechanic on the right at 24:14 is the actor from Sopranos that plays as “Murmur”, Christopher’s friend from AA
Andre Anderson
2023-07-01 06:58:58 +0000 UTCHave you guys seen The Outsiders? Tom Cruise has a small part in that movie too & it was released in 83’, Born on Fourth of July was 87’
Andre Anderson
2023-07-01 06:30:41 +0000 UTC47:30 The airplane scene in the niegborhood I've seen in person. The set is at Universal Studios Hollywood where they filmed that scene. Looks just like that. The ride is called "The Train Tour."

2023-07-01 04:43:35 +0000 UTCASIA! BJ! I'm commenting again because I can't help myself & I just finished watching the video. My first comment was BEFORE I started watching the video, but seeing y'all's reaction to this movie, and by pure coincidence seeing SIGNS pop up as a recommendation at the end of the movie for the next one to watch, y'all MUST WATCH IT. I know you hear that all the time, but Signs is a serious THRILLER and the way it inserts you into a situation that seems all too realistic to how it would probably happen (just like War of the Worlds), y'all will love it! You might as well watch it while you're still interested in Sci-fi thrillers/horror movies. Signs trumps this one by a long shot and fate showed it to you at the end of the movie! I'm telling you...if you think War of the Worlds had you on the edge of your seat throughout the whole movie, SIGNS will knock you off of it. It will make your EYES WATER at the pure suspense and build up of the inevitable! The movie intro song alone will have you questioning why you chose to put yourself through this 😂 (yes, you MUST watch it at night like you did for this movie) Fun fact for if you read this far: Joaquin Phoenix in Signs actually mentions "War of the Worlds" in a scene during the movie. He's likely referencing the old novel, but I think it's too much of a coincidence that Signs names War of the Worlds & War of the Worlds suggested Signs to you at the start of the credits. 👽👽👽👽👽
Jason C
2023-07-01 04:17:05 +0000 UTCI just got out of the hospital, so perfect timing for a good react! Also did you watch Austin Powers 3 and I missed it? Cause that's the only one he was in, unless you're talking about Tropic Thunder? Can't wait for Dexter!!!
Krissy
2023-07-01 04:13:23 +0000 UTCNot sure if anyone else mentioned it, but the narration you liked at the beginning, BJ, came from the opening paragraph from the novel 'War of the Worlds' (written by H. G. Wells)
Liz McCarthy-Edwards
2023-07-01 03:52:44 +0000 UTCBoth stars from The Shawshank Redemption had parts in this movie. You recognized Tim Robbins, while the narrator at the beginning and end is Morgan Freeman.

2023-07-01 03:19:51 +0000 UTCThe full War of the worlds radio show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzC3Fg_rRJM thanks too, not my fav Tom Cruise movie, but I still enjoyed it :)
SilverDoe🎔
2023-07-01 03:00:32 +0000 UTCThis is a remake of a 1950's classic Sci-Fi movie, which was itself an adaptation of a radio play from the 1938, which in turn was adapted from the H.G. Wells novel from 1897. People mistook the original 1938 play for a real broadcast and huge panic ensued believing New Jersey had been invaded by Martians.
Ludwvin Martinez
2023-07-01 02:56:38 +0000 UTCSuch a great choice to react to!! I remember when I saw it in the theater I was actually sore after it because I held myself so tight and tense throughout the whole movie…I mean it did not stop from beginning to end! I am woefully unprepared for an alien invasion…I wouldn’t last a day! You should look up the original story…back in the days before TV this was broadcast on the radio. It was simply entertainment, but it was read out like reporters were on the scene. Even though they said it was a radio play, MANY people freaked out and thought we were under alien attack for real!! 😂
Mary Merry Berry
2023-07-01 02:10:04 +0000 UTCThis was so fun to see y’all reacting to this classic. I hope one day you watch Invasion of the Body Snatchers with Lenard Nemoy and Donald Sutherland…Signs with Mel Gibson is another great movie in this genre…
Nuthin Good at 4
2023-07-01 01:40:48 +0000 UTCI was just gonna suggest that they watch Signs…good call…such an awesome movie…
Nuthin Good at 4
2023-07-01 01:38:09 +0000 UTCPerfect timing for a Friday evening! First gonna watch HOTD, then War of The Worlds. All I need now is the Titanic announcement 😉. While we’re on Tom Cruise and Sci-Fi, here are two suggestions of my favorite movies of his. “Minority Report” and “Edge of Tomorrow”
Patty Estrada
2023-07-01 00:48:32 +0000 UTCThis is gonna be great thanks :D

2023-06-30 23:25:24 +0000 UTCForgot all about this flick and I cant wait to watch it with y'all! Peace and love A&B fam stay safe this holiday weekend!
Darth Brooks
2023-06-30 23:20:11 +0000 UTCRain man(1988) is one of the great feel good storys staring Tom Cruse and Dustin Hoffman that u need to check out, Also one of his earliest films he had a very small role in the outsiders(1983) is one of my favorites with a cast of future big time stars
Lewsifer
2023-06-30 22:52:28 +0000 UTCI hadn't seen this movie since it came out but it seems more terrifying today than back then. I dunno.
Psoup
2023-06-30 22:16:40 +0000 UTCLook into the history of this movie. Orson Wells. Back before tv this was on radio. People who turned in late thought it was really going on.
Jesse McAdams
2023-06-30 22:14:53 +0000 UTCThe funniest part of the movie was the grand parents walking out in their nice clean ironed clothes like "what's all this noise going on out here" at the end. Also the red stuff was human blood. The aliens a long time ago "planted" humans to one day return and use humans to transform the planet into their environment. They just didn't plan on bacteria.
Jesse McAdams
2023-06-30 22:12:38 +0000 UTCThis is one of a few adaptations to a sci-fi novel from the 1950s, that was set in the 19th century I believe, the 1890s to be exact The opening and closing narrations were done by none other than Morgan Freeman, who did a magnificent job The passages he recited were straight from the book I believe, with the century being replaced by the 21st to keep in line with the current time
Karl Kraus
2023-06-30 22:09:02 +0000 UTCIn my honest opinion, an even better movie of this genre is "Signs" (2002). I left a movie reaction request on the discord for it about a week ago, should be a few up from the bottom in there. If you guys enjoy this kind of film, Signs does suspense building even better. The cast is great as well! More details there if you're interested. Otherwise, really glad you guys checked this one out! I haven't watched yet, but I will tonight.
Jason C
2023-06-30 21:29:05 +0000 UTCOK, last comment for this post I promise. lol War of the Worlds was written in 1898. In 1938 they did a reading of the novel on a radio show for CBS, and did not sufficiently warn people that it was just a story. People heard the broadcast, and actually believed that the world was under attack by an alien invasion. People were actually taking to the streets arm with shotguns and rifles, trying to hunt down the aliens, and as I understand it, a few water towers were shot up in the dark by mistake. This was all documented in a movie called The Night That Panicked America. Also, the 1953 version of War of the Worlds is cheesy by today’s standards, but it was one of my favorite movies growing up.

2023-06-30 21:07:08 +0000 UTCOh, and as far as Tom Cruise goes, you definitely need to check out A Few Good Men and Taps. Two great movies from Tom Cruise they just didn’t get enough credit.
Carl 🐉
2023-06-30 20:46:53 +0000 UTCIf you want more Tom Cruise you can always watch the Mission Impossible movies (all of them, lol). Also, Edge of Tomorrow (2014), Top Gun 1 & 2), Oblivion (2013), Minority Report (2002), A Few Good Men (1992), Legend (1985 and one of my favorites!).
Eddy
2023-06-30 20:44:49 +0000 UTCDefinitely the Wire! Best cop drama, ever thanks to the advisers that they used who were actually Baltimore police officers at one time.
Carl 🐉
2023-06-30 20:14:40 +0000 UTCGood movie but I hope you finish watching the Star Wars saga pretty soon. You definitely need to watch episode 2, 3 and Rogue One. I wouldn’t waste my time with 7,8 or 9 as they are terrible and not what George Lucas had envisioned at all. But I hear that he is trying to buy the franchise back so that he can fix it. Fingers crossed. Also, while we were on the subject, I really think you would enjoy the Mandalorian.

2023-06-30 20:08:37 +0000 UTCY’all’s the best funds spent ❤️

JL Green
2023-06-30 19:56:27 +0000 UTCOh yeah, this is a heavy one! One of Steven Spielberg's underrated efforts More alien movies by him are Close Encounters of the Third Kind and E.T., which I hope you get to some day
Karl Kraus

2023-06-30 19:42:14 +0000 UTCLove this one. Tom Cruise is great in this.
