Though the 2005 remake has some merit, it cannot stand up against the original in any way.
Look at the fine special effects! They didn't have computers ( or at least like we have today) at that time.
The whole scene where the Martians come out of the gully in the original was all done on a large table top!
I have it on DVD so now I won't wear it out.

Love the gully scene. Also has one of the best endings cause is the simplest. The martians simply couldnt adapt to our germs and in return got sick and died. Simple but also the most realistic IMO.
