I like how they have gasmasks on. in the book, the tripods deployed a heavy toxic gas that would stay close to the ground, so the gas masks make sense.
Its actually quite funny and awesome at the same time. Many of the tactics used in WW1 and WW2 in our history such as the Blitzkrieg was instead used to rapidly move German troops all the way across the north and around to reinforce the Allied Line that was holding back the Martians. Also, "Allied U-boats".
WW1 was pretty creepy in the first place. But watching this video makes it highly more scary to think about. Imagine the amount of chaos and devastation caused by the tripods!
TheDarkLordIsHere The problem is how are we supposed to beat the aliens in the past? There was one book where we beated the aliens in land for 20 years form 1941 to 1961 only because we are much faster thinker than the aliens who couldn't resist the blitzkrieg, but if they wanted they could have easily bombarded Earth and conquered it. They didn't because they deemed immoral to extinct another specie. At the end we win because all our scientist managed to retro-engeener their tech and because we discovered a way to make them go crazy by throwing them saffron, but it's still a really unrealistic way of winning.
Well, if we're taking the facts presented to us in the original book by H G Wells, the Martian tripod fighting machines were vulnerable to direct or near direct hits from light and medium field guns. The Martians out-ranged the artillery with rocket launchers that shot canisters of black gas. Mind you, this book was published in 1896 or somewhere around then but took place in the early 1900s. With the all mighty power of eyesight, I think we could engage in a protracted conflict with the Martians and their extremely limited numbers with heavy entrenchment and bunkers, heavy artillery, and gas masks. Once the black gas proves ineffectual, the only option left to them would be heat rays, which puts them in range of the guns. If those guns are on reverse slopes (a common tactic from the great war.) I can see the powers of mainland Europe fight the Martians and win. The cost would be victory, but the invasion force's limited numbers would make every loss they take devastating.

I think this is actually the greatest adaptation to wotw. it just gives off the vibe that how the martians would actually look like, very biomechanical-ish.
IcarusDawn It is so creepy as it is in black n white this makes it look as if all this happened in reality and makes me imagine how those men felt as they were given a rifle and told to fire at things they had never seen.
IcarusDawn Yep. Closest thing to capture the quality and creepiness of Wells book. I mean even the one or two shots of the Martian beings themselves. SPOT ON!

Very well done... That was cool. The way they shot and edited this helped hide the CG flaws. Smart move. This helped strengthen the "realism" and thus add to the creep factor. It seems to be able to generate the appropriate emotional response of doom and despair. Well done.
This is awesome. I like the soldiers in gas masks; in the book the Martians used chemical weapons against British artillery units, whose shells were capable of taking down a tripod. The tripods didn't have any magic shields, just really good armor and advanced weapons ( the heat ray). Even so, you look at this film and imagine going out to fight these fucking things with just a rifle, that's crazy!
Cooldude 59 Or artillery shells that release gas? It'd make more sense seeing as how the original post said that artillery shells pierced through their armor...
Hyperion, but your forgetting that Evan though the Martians were advanced, in the book, tripods were experimental weapons for the Martians, meaning they had some minor bugs, such as needing little holes in the legs for stabilization meaning gas could leak through into the cockpit making a flare gun that shoots gas grenades very effective.
I love how they manipulated the alien technology to be both infantry support aswell as anti-pod weapons on tanks. But alien-invasion movies today barely apply that, its either that humans SOMEHOW win victorious against futuristic aliens with plain conventional weapons like anti-TANK weapons.
Theyre martians, they live in Mars, they just same as humans but they are older and i could say smarter because they create technology like that than the humans so they can get to the earth and bring those terrifying technology, if we were already here from a millions of years ago we already had technology like that...
This video clip is from Canadian History Channel on the 100 anniversary of The Great Martian War. They actually used biological weapons to kill the Martians.
Personally, the two creepiest things to me were when that giant Martian turns to look up at the airship that just ineffectually bombed it, and of course the robo-kraken sinking a merchant ship.
The perfect world. One united. Not to fight each other, but to realize that the only threat is from outside. And we should be prepared for when it comes.
Who said anything about a One World Order? I, personally, was just talking about a world where people could coexist with one another, and where being an absolute dick wasn’t the norm, as is often the case. I heartily agree, though: a One World Order is a bad idea.
He dropped his camera when the tentacles grabbed him, later his blood was extracted and used to feed the invaders and water the red weed. His body is still missing, but his camera film reel was recovered, processed, and prints sent out such as the one you're seeing here.
If you guys enjoyed this video but wished it was longer check out War of the Worlds: Goliath. A movie of this exact scenario of WW1 tech as well as some steam punky tech with Nikola Tesla as it's R&D head in this alternate timeline :)
Goliath kicks ass. Steampunk battle mechs? check Reverse-engineered Martian tech used in battle mechs and WWI aircraft? check Teddy Fucking Roosevelt whooping ass on Martians in New York City? that's a big fat check
Well played sir! The original History channel show is well worth a watch. No goofy shields like in the movies. I like the fact we can fight them and actually take em out. "COME ON THUNDER CHILD"!
If they didn't give them shields, the movie would've been 10 minutes long. If a handful of AT4 launchers can take out a tripod, what do you think an A-10, AC-130 or an M1 Abrams is going to do to the thing?.
Captain Falcon That is simply incorrect. Nowhere in his book did H.G. Wells state that the Martian tripods had shields; the British army actually managed to destroy a few of the fighting machines with artillery fire. The biggest issue with the tripods of the book was that they moved so fast that hitting them with artillery was damn-near impossible, but that was the only thing that would disable them.
2:04 I don’t know why, I just love seeing old WWI vehicles equipped with the alien’s technology, goes with the motto of adapting and overcoming. Learn and use your enemies weaponry.
Who else would like to go into a simulation that made this feel 100% real, and you were a british soldier fighting against these things. I'D SOIL MY BRITCHES!
What would also be cool if someone made a movie like this literally, where we see old early 1900 empires and nations fighting the Martian’s, it be the Turks, Austrian Hungarians, Germans, French, British, Japanese, Russians, Americans, Italians and many other nations and colonies fighting the martians
Im aware since I've read the book. I'm just defending the 2004 WotW Tripods for what they were, since it seems most down in the comments seem to hate the 2004 movie. The fog horn will eternally haunt my dreams.
We would be doing what the Martians were doing. Because the metal used in their technology I alive and called victisite and is a parasite. (That's the actual lore lol)
@@papayayeet9041 In that timeline, the metal they use is basically a supercomputer and gives a lot of benefits, but in reality it’s a parasite. Once a society is fully developed with the parasite, it forces them to invade other planets that are habitated, spreading the parasite.
Hyperion if the humans finnaly descended to stop fight each other for survival and corporeality make the earth better they could had us the Alian tech and create space travel before the space race. And find a cure to cancer
3:38 this is the best alien design I've ever seen looks like a beetle larvae covered with shrimp exoskeleton and it has tentacles with antennae they look nothing like us humans and they look like they totally lived with technology because from thr design it looks like they are not able to walk I think
I just really love when the weak is able to use their intelligence and use the enemy's weaponry since they are out numbered when it comes to technology. In this case the humans or us, when the natioons were able to join together and reverse technology and use it for themselves doing.

THIS is what war of the worlds should be like! The classic 19th century weaponry against advanced Martian tech. The book and radio broadcast did this, then the 1952 version came, but it was still very good, then the musical going back to the classic and then the crappy 2005 version. If there will ever be a new war of the worlds movie, it should look like this!
***** the Thunderchild took out two tripods before being destroyed with its destruction taking out a third. Besides battleship vs tripod would've made the movie for me.
***** Doesn't matter it wouldn't have killed them to have a destroyer off shore supporting the military called USS Thunderchild. When the Martians appear the destroyer rushes in to distract the tripods to buy time for the escaping steamer. The destroyer is able to ram and take out a sole tripod before being destroyed. However it's sacrifice allowed the steamer to escape. I also hated that they have the Martians shields in this movie.

For me the creepiest part was seeing the alien on the table but true the sweepers are pretty terrifying
Justanotherfurry 38 The alien on the table? are you serious?.. My little pony is scarier than that shit.
Personally, the two creepiest things to me were when that giant Martian turns to look up at the airship that just ineffectually bombed it, and of course the robo-kraken sinking a merchant ship.
First one was the most terrifying for me.
The airship part was cool
This tripod version is scarier than the 2005 film
it looks like insects (cockroaches maybe) and that is really scary and cool. great design.
+Steel Penguin with steampunk legs
Steel Penguin it was called lice?
Dunno
What they do in the 2005 film is scarier
Maybe the design, but the sound they make? He'll naw
The perfect world.
One united.
Not to fight each other, but to realize that the only threat is from outside.
And we should be prepared for when it comes.
But we are not prepared, we are not even prepared for global warming. Sad. Peace x
The perfect world
A world without treaty of versailles
The perfect world that doesn’t exist...but doesn’t have to be just a dream.
One world government/World Order is a terrible idea
Who said anything about a One World Order? I, personally, was just talking about a world where people could coexist with one another, and where being an absolute dick wasn’t the norm, as is often the case. I heartily agree, though: a One World Order is a bad idea.
This is the only time where the cameraman isn't immortal. At 1:24, he was attacked by the alien tripod.
No fam. He teleported out of there before it killed him.
Nah man, he's just walking over to check if the scene looks good
He dropped his camera when the tentacles grabbed him, later his blood was extracted and used to feed the invaders and water the red weed. His body is still missing, but his camera film reel was recovered, processed, and prints sent out such as the one you're seeing here.

"Thanks bro"
Well played sir! The original History channel show is well worth a watch. No goofy shields like in the movies. I like the fact we can fight them and actually take em out. "COME ON THUNDER CHILD"!
Yeah but I can see why they gave them sheilds in both movies it would've been to easy to take them out with modern weapons
If they didn't give them shields, the movie would've been 10 minutes long. If a handful of AT4 launchers can take out a tripod, what do you think an A-10, AC-130 or an M1 Abrams is going to do to the thing?.
seewall11 in the book they had shields, blame H G Wells if you don't like it
Captain Falcon That is simply incorrect. Nowhere in his book did H.G. Wells state that the Martian tripods had shields; the British army actually managed to destroy a few of the fighting machines with artillery fire. The biggest issue with the tripods of the book was that they moved so fast that hitting them with artillery was damn-near impossible, but that was the only thing that would disable them.
Temperus Maximus never mind, I just realised they are not necessarily distinct things
2:04 I don’t know why, I just love seeing old WWI vehicles equipped with the alien’s technology, goes with the motto of adapting and overcoming. Learn and use your enemies weaponry.
Everyone gangsta till tripods starts walkin
Damn right!
"Once the Tripods start moving, no more news comes out of that area."
The way they move is amazing, like an actual spider.
Zorro9129 the way the move is amazing I just love how they move even though in the book they're slow af
thatrandomguy2004
Don't they say they move pretty quickly in the book?
Hyperion no they move slowly
3:55 All your stuff are now belong to us.
All you're base are belong to us. Us. Us.
Imagine if you went back in time and showed this to ppl
I’d take it to 1912 and claim it was their future.
Who else would like to go into a simulation that made this feel 100% real, and you were a british soldier fighting against these things. I'D SOIL MY BRITCHES!
+1 for brown pants. Having and investing in same.
Come get some
Upengraden The Cuber y a british soldier?
What would also be cool if someone made a movie like this literally, where we see old early 1900 empires and nations fighting the Martian’s, it be the Turks, Austrian Hungarians, Germans, French, British, Japanese, Russians, Americans, Italians and many other nations and colonies fighting the martians
*slowy sips tea* FUCK YYEERRR ALIENS
I'm not sure what kind of video this is, but I really like it.
those tripods are scary it is how fast they can move and how deadly they look
Lucas Munn Granted the fog horn of the 2005 film is nightmare fuel, their shields made them also pretty terrifying.
Peusterokos1 these ones don't have shields. Just superior technology
Im aware since I've read the book.
I'm just defending the 2004 WotW Tripods for what they were, since it seems most down in the comments seem to hate the 2004 movie. The fog horn will eternally haunt my dreams.
The small one are name Martian Spiders
Imagine where humanity would be right now if this actually happened and we adapted to the technology they had.
We would be doing what the Martians were doing. Because the metal used in their technology I alive and called victisite and is a parasite.
(That's the actual lore lol)
@@Joe_Real wait there’s LORE?!!?
@@Joe_Real WHAT
@@papayayeet9041 there is. In the original documentary.
@@papayayeet9041 In that timeline, the metal they use is basically a supercomputer and gives a lot of benefits, but in reality it’s a parasite. Once a society is fully developed with the parasite, it forces them to invade other planets that are habitated, spreading the parasite.

Oh, how realistic this is. It's like in the War of the Worlds book by Herbert Wells.
That's so Creepy af. Imagine those machines invades our world. Otherwise, this is so awesome. I love the steampunk side of this vision of war ^^
Moar Nathan
If they were to invade now they would be severely disappointed seeing as how we COULD make things like this on the battlefield.
Hyperion Yeah x)
Hyperion but imagine what they could create now... (if they were real)
Hyperion if the humans finnaly descended to stop fight each other for survival and corporeality make the earth better they could had us the Alian tech and create space travel before the space race. And find a cure to cancer
Fernando Aguirre But doesn’t man technology advance through war?
I love the details of their legs not being tentacles or hinged, in the book it describes them as having sliding plates and mechanisms instead
1:11
I find that terrifying because its just the fast movement and the fact that the old footage of people running fits in so well...
Like if u agree
That’s the scary thing. The footage looks so fucking real.
0:03 Am I watching Star Wars prologue? XD
lol
Maybe
Yeah, but its the 1916 version of star wars where tripods are the only advanced technology.
That's the actual intro to the book.
I can't keep from pressing the replay button
3:38 this is the best alien design I've ever seen looks like a beetle larvae covered with shrimp exoskeleton and it has tentacles with antennae they look nothing like us humans and they look like they totally lived with technology because from thr design it looks like they are not able to walk I think
Wonderful.
I just really love when the weak is able to use their intelligence and use the enemy's weaponry since they are out numbered when it comes to technology. In this case the humans or us, when the natioons were able to join together and reverse technology and use it for themselves doing.
This is nightmare fuel

Something about ww1 sci-fi horror that no other setting has.
Kudos to who ever made this, this is one of the coolest bit of film I’ve ever seen, I love art that gives me an endorphin rush and this pegged the endo meter.
It was made from the Canadian History Channel on The Great Martian War.

Footage of the great Martian invasion, circa 1917
我個人真的感慨萬分，以前發生戰爭的時候，也有飛碟外星人，那些為國家犧牲賣命的國軍，又增加他們國軍的負擔，真的十分可憐，那個發生戰爭的年代，我的推測，是不是天空上有飛碟盤旋，他們那個國家的國軍，以為是敵軍，他們發動攻擊，所以下來很多長腳機器人，還有很大隻像昆蟲形狀的機器人，開始攻擊那個國家的國軍，他們用坦克車大砲回擊，越來越多，打也打不完的長腳機器人，我看到好像飛碟有透明的防護罩，他們用槍枝打也沒用，飛碟外星人存在這個宇宙有10億年了，在地球沒有生物、動物、沒有人類時，在宇宙另一個太陽系，就有飛碟外星人存在了，生命的起源，人類的誕生，繁延後代子孫，是褔、是禍，當你夜晚抬頭仰望天空看星星時，不禁流下眼淚，那些血淋淋的戰場上，那些可憐國家的國軍，只是為了保衛國家，他們看到飛碟，也以為是敵人，也是戰機主動攻擊，他們出發點是保衛他們的國家，他不知道會有那麼多機器人從大飛碟下來，發生戰爭時，軍人是最可憐的，天降大任於斯人也，置個人生死於度外，我向以前發生在戰場上，有和飛碟外星人對峙交戰的偉大的軍人深深的一鞠躬，為國家鞠躬盡瘁的，犧牲生命的軍人。
@@簡碧馨 what?
THAT'S the movie I always wanted to see!
This just has that feel to it, it isn't scary. Just has that really creepy feel to it.
THIS is what war of the worlds should be like! The classic 19th century weaponry against advanced Martian tech. The book and radio broadcast did this, then the 1952 version came, but it was still very good, then the musical going back to the classic and then the crappy 2005 version. If there will ever be a new war of the worlds movie, it should look like this!
I mean, it wasn't that crappy, but I just didn't like it for some reason. But, I'll give you that. The tripods did look amazing
Oh no, it's ok. I like criticism as long as it's constructive.
I didn't like the 2005 version because they completely omitted the Thunderchild from it.
***** the Thunderchild took out two tripods before being destroyed with its destruction taking out a third. Besides battleship vs tripod would've made the movie for me.
***** Doesn't matter it wouldn't have killed them to have a destroyer off shore supporting the military called USS Thunderchild. When the Martians appear the destroyer rushes in to distract the tripods to buy time for the escaping steamer. The destroyer is able to ram and take out a sole tripod before being destroyed. However it's sacrifice allowed the steamer to escape. I also hated that they have the Martians shields in this movie.
I dont know that
