"Independence Day" (ID4)

What I thought was interesting was that the film maker had the balls to actually kill off most of the populations of these major cities.

Hey guys, I know I'm out of my thread here, but I too, am an ID4 fan.

Read the books. I just finished reading "ID4: War In The Desert"

Remember when the Americans are morse-coding the rest of the world that they want to mount a counter-offensive to bring down the alien ships? There was a British contingent in the Sinai. This book is focused around them.

Starts with the destruction of all the major cities, including Baghdad. (YEAH!!) It continues through the end of the movie, and goes through the ground invasion of the aliens that survived the crash. VERY exciting, edge of my reading chair, couldn't wait to turn the page. Too bad they didn't make this book a straight-to-DVD film.

I'm gonna get back on me ship and sail to Tortuga. Thar's a party goin' on tonight! drunk

I fail to see what's so funny about the President's wife dying because it's not.

I nearly cried when I saw that clip.

Seriously. What in the f*ck was so funny about someone's mother / wife dying? The line his daughter said made me shed a small tear.

yeah if their was ever a time when I said Thsoe bastards! it was then.

This movie was good! Will Smith is a good actor! I liked it alot

Independence day : 😆 What a joke of a film, crap story bad acting the list just goes on. A modern day B-Movie what a pile of shit

Not a bad flic, it was entertaining...though personally, the idea that we could pose any kind of challenge to a starflight-capable tech...it just ain't so, not by a long-shot.

Yeah, Quaid's big scene...cheesy but nicely done.
I also liked when Will Smith decked the alien. "Welcome to Earth."
