They blew up every major landmark on the planet in the first one, what are they gonna do to top the first one? Blow up local landmarks, such as fiberglass paul bunyans and whatnot?

It was just a ripoff of V the mini series. V was better. Independence Day was pretty bad.

never seen V but il give it a shot if it's as memorable as this movie. I just got to the president's speech before the final battle, and I'd vote for Bill Pullman if he ever ran for office based on that speech alone

I watched Independence Day in my friend's Volvo while stuck on I-5N today. Really good, did a running commentary on Snapchat.

More well adjusted then you'd think.
Why did they feel the need to add the helicopter talking off in front of the White House. It looked much cooler in the first trailers before the loving helicopter was in the way.

The old Jew dad and his dumb Jew scientist son were the worst part of that movie. I wish they weren't in it. No one likes them. The part when the President shoots the gently caress out of the alien is the best part.

Every time I watch that movie I'll never understand the ending. Like, they take down 1 ship and then use morse code to tell the other countries how to take them down.

Except they took that 1 ship down by mounting 1 final offensive utilizing the remainder of the world's air forces and still had to rely on 1 guy flying into the mega weapon at precisely the right time to cause it to backfire (lol). How the gently caress does that help anybody?

"hey guys we totally know how to destroy their ships! You just have to wait for the aliens to prepare to fire their mega weapon, and then have a suicidal pilot fly a plane right into it at exactly the right moment! Good luck! We got um beat!!!!'
