No argument. The concept that worked in the 1900s doesn't really hold
up quite as well. The effects were awesome. And the little girl actor
is amazing.

The red weeds were in the book. They were basically the terraforming
concept before terraforming was a concept. But yeah, the overall story
just doesn't quite resonate now like I think it did in the 1900s with
Germ Theory and later with the pre-war paranoia radio broadcast.
