The Infamous WAR OF THE WORLDS Sequel No One Talks About

Did you know Ice Cube starred in a War of the Worlds sequel that has a near-zero score on Rotten Tomatoes? No? There's a very good reason for that. And we're about to dig up the body.Welcome to the autopsy of a cinematic car crash. In this episode, we're exploring why H.G. Wells's masterpiece, The War of the Worlds, is a story that Hollywood just can't seem to get right. Our main exhibit: the universally panned 2025 "screenlife" adaptation starring Ice Cube, a film so bad it became an instant legend for all the wrong reasons. We'll unpack the nonsensical plot, the blatant product placement, and why it's considered one of the worst movies ever made.But the story doesn't end there. We'll contrast this disaster with the official sequel novel, The Massacre of Mankind, and the cult classic 1988 TV series to figure out what makes a good (or terrible) follow-up. This is a deep dive into the art of the movie adaptation, the curse of a classic story, and the unforgettable train wreck of a film that tried to reboot an alien invasion for the TikTok generation.Ready to witness the most glorious disaster in sci-fi movie history?
