"War of the Worlds"

I'll probably get ripped on for this, but I'm in the middle of reading H.G. Wells's "War of the Worlds" in time for the new movie. The book is very, very good. I really like it, and I really hope Spielberg doesn't butcher the storyline, because it's a modern setting. Feedback?

if speilberg can edit e.t. then he can butcher war of the worlds. If you like the book, you should check kdx or lime wire and down load the radio show I would suggest the same for hhgttu
