My theory for this movie is that it is a prelude to War Of The Worlds, the remake with Tom Cruise. The aliens I believe came from another planet a milennia ago. They came upon Mars, probably inhabited, and killed its inhabitants. Then they stripped the planet of its resources. Somehow, they discovered Earth. They are after the Uranium in order for them to start the production of the Tripods, and that those "balloons", as one of the characters called it, is actually a manufacturing ship for those Tripods. After production, they bury them deep in the ground until they are needed to invade Earth. Does anyone else agree with my theory?
