What if the 1953 movie The War of the Worlds is remade in 1978?
The 1978 remade in TTL is set in late 1981 to early 1982.

I agree with the other posters in this thread, more information like who directed it and some more detail would allow us to disuse the effects of a 1978 remake of the The War of the Worlds. |

Since this would be one year after star wars and science fiction was the rage at the time, a war of the wold remake could have happen, I am surprised that it took longer for a big budget movie remake to happen.

Well i think the The War of the Worlds of 1953 is a good one, but it depends on what the 1978 remake looks like. |

You're not wrong, i enjoyed the 1953 version alot when i was young and still consider it a good movie today, i just surprises that it took untill 2005 for another theatrical movie to be made of war of the world. |

Well both the 1953 version which was more Martians destroying humanity and the 2005 a human and his rebel son and daughter hide in a basement are complete different from each other, so how would a 1978 remake look like, well i do not know. |

Cheesy smoke clouds, disco-era sound effects and so many Star Wars copycat features it looks like a basement high-school ripoff. Those were simpler, better times. Now movies are so computerized it's basically a very long video game cut-screen. |

Probably very similar in structure at disaster movie like 'The Towering Inferno', 'Airport' and 'Poseidon'; focusing on people trying to survive and adding in between action scene were the army try to stop the martian |

Yep, but instead of focusing on a single family we will be 'blessed' with a more ensemble cast of star-former star-up and coming star and all the cliquè and trope of an Irvin Allen movie...and the martian will be revelead as the carrot men of Lost in Space |

IN 1978 there was a remake of the invasion of the body snatchers from 56. so there can be a 78 remake of war of the worlds.Also in the glorious 70s  there was a war of the worlds comic maybe they could base the 78 war of the worlds on the comic.There was a audience in the 70"s for science fiction. was a audience. |
