Anyone seen this movie from the 50's or 60's, it was pretty good. Steven Speilberg has redone it for this summer with Tom Cruise, should be good.

And it was a good book. Great imagery.

If doofus android Speilberg sticks to the book he should do ok.

upon the original radio broadcast of the radio play, mass chaos struck in multiple points in the nation due to the fact that a lot of people thought it was a real news cast, and that we were actually being invaded.

it looks like its gonna be awful. i saw the preview and it is taking place in the present which makes it awful to begin with. and it should not be redone becuase both the book and original were amazing and should not be redone

^^You obviously dont understand Animal House. While Old School was very funny, it should never be compared to Animal House. Animal House was one of the greatest comedies ever made...Old School will be forgotten in a few years.

actually thats not true, the filmed them all at the same time but they were not all finished at the same, check out some of the bonus stuff and you will see, the third movie was still shooting scenes and editing close up till its release
