Predator - nonstop kanchiong! wan go toilet also cannot!
King Kong (by Peter Jackson) - epic kingkong vs dinosaur fight!
Jurassic Park 1 - awesome see brontosaurus for first time!
Gremlins - ahh the nostalgia, still got Gizmo toy!
The Host - go see movie without know what this movie is, but its good!
Independence Day - alien p@wned big time by Will Smith!
Starship Troopers - the scene where a soldier bombed a giant bug, FTW!

i just rewatched War of the Worlds today...and wow i still like it!!! although ending not so good (i thought the book ending also like that?) but many things are done excellently:
- monsters appear in full glory very early in the movie, no play hide and seek until last 15 min of the movie....comprarable to the brontosaurus first appearance in jurassic park
- all the basement scenes are done with great monstrosity feel...no black cat suddenly appear out that thing, especially the tense moment when the tentacle comes down the basement
- shows human desperation and ignorance at its best, robbie the rebel, dakota the screamer tom cruise acting a cool father figure
- artistic scenes in the movie, e.g. tiny flowers fly when dakota go beside the river, countered by the floating dead ppl...
- excellent use of lighting, especially during the war at the hill, looks epic....and sound, the tripod and the laser sounds good!

if u hate robbie, then spielberg has successfully created a full-flesh character worth hating!

anyway, a trivia of WoTW....the word "alien" were not spoken throughout the movie! how cool is that! if for other director/screenwriter, sure like alien alien hundreds of times
