Movie moguls Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise are considering filming the epic tale The War of the Worlds in New Zealand.
Insiders say that a New Zealand film set is at the top of the list of possible destinations. Industry sources told The Dominion Post that a Paramount production is rumoured to be starting in New Zealand later this year or early next year. Paramount has been confirmed as having the production rights to the H G Wells’ classic tale of alien invasion.
Cruise, who filmed The Last Samurai in Taranaki last year, will produce and star in the film and Spielberg will direct.
Cruise is due to start filming the third Mission Impossible movie soon. When he left Taranaki last year, he said he was keen to return but Venture Film Taranaki project manager Peter Avery doubted it would be to film The War of the Worlds.

Hey Lori, don’t worry, there is a good button called ‘delete’ and ‘edit’ that we dont mind using as often as possible to keep those idiots away

I’m sorry those problem ones are still coming here.
In the end it’ll all go away.
Also, some are just too ridiculous for words, I’ve noticed earlier how one did not change it’s persona, yeto used thte tag of someone with a completely different persona.
Ignore ignorance.
On a lighter note.
This is a awonderful place to meet others that truly share your interest.
Do not let the bad bombard your goodness.
