Does the book cover what Tom and Tim were doing in the back room of the basement?

I know the movie is rated PG-13 so explicit sex scenes are not shown. But I would really like to know who was on top.

I saw this in Australia recently. It was just okay.

As Loretta mentions and everybody must have got, the video camera worked. Why? Also, the bloody solenoid would probably be okay, and the cars smart chips would be fried.

Tom Cruise is just plain horrible and gets worse each year.

SERENITY. I saw a preview for this Sci Fi movie and got excited about them mentioning the Buffy the Vampire Slayer producer was involved.

But, I google researched it and this is the tv series producer and I never bothered watching the series.

[quote=“Maoman”][quote=“Richardm”][quote=“Maoman”]I liked it but I didn’t understand something . [color=red]Spoiler alert[/color]:
[color=white]The aliens sucked up people and mulched them to make food for the blood vines, is that right? What were the blood vines for?[/color][/quote]
No. That is not right. The answer is in the book.[/quote]
I’m not about to buy the book. What’s the answer?[/quote]
Sorry Maoman, I didn’t catch that the first time I saw the movie. When I rented it, it seemed like they were spraying blood around. That wasn’t in the book. I just finished rereading it.

HG Wells:

Apparently the vegetable kingdom in Mars, instead of having green for a dominant colour, is of a vivid blood-red tint. At any rate, the seeds which the Martians (intentionally or accidentally) brought with them gave rise in all cases to red-coloured growths. Only that known popularly as the red weed, however, gained any footing in competition with terrestrial forms. The red creeper was quite a transitory growth, and few people have seen it growing. For a time, however, the red weed grew with astonishing vigour and luxuriance. It spread up the sides of the pit by the third or fourth day of our imprisonment, and its cactus-like branches formed a carmine fringe to the edges of our triangular window. And afterwards I found it broadcast throughout the country, and especially wherever there was a stream of water.

In the movie, it doesn’t make any sense to me.
