It's about time that HG's great story recieved a proper treatment by the film industry. From the looks of the gallery at the pendragon website they are making a genuine effort to do just that.
"And this Thing I saw! How can I describe it? A monstrous tripod, higher than many houses, striding over the young pine trees, and smashing them aside in its career; a walking engine of glittering metal, striding now across the heather; articulate ropes of steel dangling from it, and the clattering tumult of its passage mingling with the riot of the thunder.

Like you I think that I will ignore Spielboyz mutant version and focus on this one.
