If you like sci/fi with lots of special effects and dramatic music this show is for you, they should have given it it's own title not recycling the "war of the worlds" name, lots of drama in this movie if you like tragedy/drama in your sci/fi, I am sure it is watchable to those that like that sort of sci/fi

Then watch the actual movie and get back to us.

ALL trailers look good...well, except the crappy Superman trailers.

Also, you might want to upgrade beyond the iPhone 4, the camera's are quite amazing these days. Or try a Samsung camera and have your mind blown.

You should try to use a dedicated camera for a change - photo shops will often rent you some equipment so you can test before you buy. Here are some things that a dedicated camera (with the right lenses and a competent user) will always do better:

  • - larger image sensor, with larger pixels, so less electronic noise. That means the camera does not need to do the aggressive noise filtering that phones have to do and you'll get more detail. The difference is less visible if you have a LOT of light in the scene and quite obvious as subject lighting decreases
  • - larger aperture. This again means more light getting in, so better detail, especially in low light. Also, see the next point
  • - bokeh. You can kinda-sorta try to emulate it with software, but you should try and compare with what a dedicated camera can do, especially on that big TV.

Phone cameras have gotten a lot better, but you somehow seem to think that dedicated camera have stagnated. They have not.
