War of the Worlds 2025 – What Went Wrong and How I’d Fix It
War of the Worlds 2025 had potential—but fumbled the landing. In this video, I break down the story beat by beat to uncover where things went off the rails. Then I dive into the core problems holding the narrative back, and offer a few concrete changes that could have made the story shine.
Whether you’re a fellow writer, a sci-fi lover, or just left the movie wondering “...wait, what was that ending?”, this one’s for you.
✨ Topics Covered:
Story structure breakdown (Save the Cat style)
Pacing issues and character arcs
Missed opportunities in the concept and themes
What could’ve fixed the story (without rewriting the whole thing)
🛸 Writers, take notes—there’s a lot we can learn from flawed stories.
