Independence Day: Resurgence - Atrocious Script But Admittingly Fun
-
We saw it yesterday (we being @art_of_shred and I). The dialog was REALLY cheezy but still fun.
-
I think I'm going to wait till it is available to stream. The original Independence Day was a little cheesy, but ridiculously enjoyable.

Normally, if a movie has a script that is this bad, I usually just hate it but it was hard to hate this movie. A "popcorn" movie for sure.

I completely agree - a total Popcorn movie - but really - turn my brain off and just have fun.

I had more issue with Will Smith stealing a choper in the last movie to find his girlfriend than I did with the kids sudden appearance picking up Papa Levinson.Yeah that death scene was definitely super cheese! I agree with your assessment complete and was left confused.
Also, what about the fact that the spheriod dude has all this advanced technology, but doesn't have shields? Really? Come on! Oh OH oh I know.. the sensors on the ship knew they weren't the bad aliens (we still don't have a name for them) so they didn't raise - oh never mind - it's just a movie
-
I like most of the special effects, not that I think of it, I don't recall any SFx looking so out of place that I was like - uh what? So that's good!
-
Yeah I'll just check the sources... not gonna go out and see a movie I saw 20 years ago......
-
They put a new Dolby Digital theater in (HDR, ceiling mounted speakers, etc) in Cleveland. I think I might go see it there.

Not to mention that they have this knowledge-transfer session with the alien orb, who knows all about how to defeat the Harvesters, and they use none of the new information to defeat them. Instead it's a "let's try to beat it at it's own game" plan, with no guarantee of success. Oh, and why not just drill into Saturn (they passed right by) to get energy from a planet's core? It's big, and it's uninhabited. No fight.
