Will Smith as Steven Hiller.
I think it's safe to say that it was disaster master Roland Emmerich's Independence Day that pretty much made Will Smith the superstar that he is today.
Steven Hiller is a fighter pilot with the USMC's Black Knight squadron, stationed out of (what used to be) El Toro, who has aspirations of becoming an astronaut. His girlfriend is a single mother who works as a exotic dancer.
Too bad the aliens decide to wreck his 4th of July holiday. All he wanted to do was to propose to his woman and shoot off some fireworks with his new son. As it turns out, he does both on the 4th.
Independence Day is still the shit, even after nearly 15 years.
Trivia: Roland Emmerich sure loves to destroy shit in his movies. Several landmarks he destroyed several times over. Here's the tally (so far, anyway):
1. U.S. Bank Tower, Los Angeles: First building the aliens blew up in ID4. Made a second appearance in 2012, nearly flattening Jackson Curtis' escape plane as it topples over in the big quake.
2. Empire State Building, NYC: First building to be blown up in ID4. First building to be frozen over in The Day After Tomorrow.
3. The White House, Washington D.C.: Blew up in ID4, broadsided by the USS John F Kennedy on a Tsunami in 2012.
