Film Sack 714: War of The Worlds (2025)
Added 2025-08-16 17:04:02 +0000 UTC
On this week's Film Sack podcast, a colossal invasion of Earth is coming in this off-kilter take on the legendary novel of the same name, filled with present-day themes of technology, government surveillance, and privacy. It also has Ice Cube in it! So Eff the police, comin straight from the underground indeed!
Enjoy the link Ibbott mentioned in this episode with the super cut of Ice Cube reacting in this movie. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTmLmaVtSR8
IBBOTT LYRICS
Working for the DHS
This pandemic's been a mess
They all work from home, leaving me alone
It's a one-person shop I guess
And if Disruptor weren't enough
Aliens have called our bluff
Come to do their worst
Feed their data thirst
And chase after a desperate housewife
My kids are still alive, get me the drive
Brought to you by Amazon
With Clippy down, I'm on my own
Wife's Facebook page is all gone
Is it too much to ask?
Why must I multitask?
Alone again, in D.C.
To think that only yesterday
Director Briggs and I were OK
But the docs we found, such deceit abound
He was leading us astray
He didn't tell us what he knew
In our MS Teams review
But that maniac, thanks to my son's hack
Will be cackling from a jail cell
Survail my daughter too, new meaning to
Helicopter parenting
You need a smidge, green in your fridge
Would kale be so embarrassing?
But for now I'll give the keys
To Thelma and Louise
Alone again, in D.C.
RANDY POEM
Ice Cube declared, “These Martians fear my flow!”
But couldn't carry this weird, dumbass show.
Then Eva Longoria stormed on screen,
Deliv'ring lines like a daytime soap queen.
The two combined made chaos hard to bear:
A rapper lost, a housewife with bad hair.
Comments
I've been to the end of streaming,sadly, and am willing to take risks. Although I will not watch this movie again, I absolutely hate how stupid the characters in the Tom Cruise version were. The monetary difference should be the key and I bet I actually rented the Tom Cruise garbage.
