Spot the mistake

Can anyone else see what's wrong with this - see screenshot below. I do wish people would check their work before submitting it.

@SKY1992bf  @cookiemonsteruk  Didn't Guy Pearce appear in an updated version?

I think he was in another HG Wells movie adaptation of The Time Machine

@cookiemonsteruk  Yes you're right, it was Tom Cruise who was in a remake 🙂

Re: Spot the mistake

  Yes, that indeed is Robert Carlyle, who was born in 1961 & appeared in the 2019 TV version of WOTW, so how he could be in the 1953 film version of WOTW, I do not know. I don't even know why 1953 was added to the synopsis, it would have been correct without it. Having said that, it is still a bit of a rubbish write-up, " .... toasting the planet with heat rays. "? Really? I guess it was the regular writer's day off, and an intern was allowed to have a go.

Strictly speaking they toasted Woking, Shepperton and Weybridge, so quite a small part of the planet ; )

 

In 1953 it was an already crispy southern California, presumably for budgetary reasons.
