Odd timing; just watched this trailer. It looks... exactly as one would expect.
Also, you totally butchered the word 'Independence.'
Just saying.

Whoops, wrote that in a hurry; als, the italian translation is "indipendenza" hence I made that typo  ---- Anyway, I think the first movie showed us the first, let's say, "example" of a global internet campaign that produced quite a lot of hype, at least when it comes to movies: mini-games, lots of media content and the like. |

The aliens are going to come back and say, "We have assimilated McAfee Defender, so you cannot fuck with us any more". Jeff Goldblum will have to hunt down a Russian hacker who goes by the name Leetz who knows the SeKRIt vulNERbility in McAfee! Only there will be Chechen Muslim terrorists who must be convinced to allow the Goldblum to access Mr. Leetz, who it turns out is a 13-year old Muslim Chechen woman who smokes and is totes down with Taylor Swift. In the meantime, Replacement BlackPilot will need to punch something and the President will shout a speech but it is his daughter who will pilot a plane that shoot laser missiles into an EVEN BIGGAR ship that will totes destroy HUManiTY unless Chechen hacker uploads her amazing McAffee-destroying warez in time, but she is worried about being prosecuted by Bill Gates, who will make a cameo near the end where he gives her permission to destroy Windows 11 forever.

Hmmm. I wonder if such a cheesey movie still works nowadays...
It's Roland Emmerich again, so maybe there is a chance.

i'll see it, at least it's not another reboot/remake. I also hope it makes a ton of money and Suicide Squad flops, and Will Smith goes and cries in the corner while beating Jada for being a lousy actress.

Everything Emmerich has done in the 20 years since ID4 suggests he had no idea he was making a cheesy movie the first time around. The guy just makes bad movies. |

Full irony: Site claims he died in '07, same year I Am Legend was released.  |

The first movie is a cheesy disaster movie with a shiny sci-fi alien invasion wrapping. It has cornball dialogue and predictable character and story beats.
I still love the damn thing.
I'll probably go see this and enjoy it in spite of what it is, just like I did the last one.

I have to admit, I really really like the idea of a post alien disaster/first contact type movie. These always seem to end with earth bravely standing in the post invasion rubble and what happens next is an area that hasn't been explored much. Admittedly I'm not expecting anything deep or interesting in terms of exploring the political situation, it's really just going to be 'Same as last time but now we've got laser rifles!' On a similar note to WWZ (the book not the movie of the same name) I think it would be really interesting to imagine what kind of effects an attempted alien invasion would have on human society.

Well, obviously I'm going to have to see it. I'm a little disappointed with no Will Smith, but Goldblum is enough on his own to warrant seeing the movie.

Big splosions. Cheese. No real story.
Get lit, turn off the brain and enjoy the pretty light show.

Meh. I mean, I loved the first movie when it came out but it doesn't hold up well at all. Also Roland Emmerich makes really shitty movies. You can tell he's trying to be the less idiotic Michael Bay. My biggest problem with the trailer was the size of the rape ship. It just dwarfed everything and I'm thinking "HOW CAN THAT POSSIBLY EXIST?" Suspension of disbelief, thou art a cruel mistress.

It's the sequel and it's now 2015. Everything has to be biggerer and betterer and MORE EXCITING! |

Xmen trailer, Star Trek trailer and this.
At least this movie is supposed to be crap so will probably be the most enjoyable of the three based on the trailers.

But that's would would make it "good". Ironic-cheese doesn't work. Btw, there is an actually "decent" Emmerich B-movie: Moon 44 |

Like others have said, the first movie was great in no small part due to the cheesyness factor.
This one looks like it's trying to take itself too seriously.

I'm so there. I'll miss the "Welcome to EARF", but I'll yell that at inappropriate times during the movie just to male up for it.

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something.

Jeff Goldblum is in a goddamned space suit. No one, including its creators, is taking this movie seriously. Also, this looks great. |

Agree on both counts. I mean, all they did was make the alien ship bigger this time and give us better pew pew.

This movie has tons of potential Jeff Goldblum memes so I'm in. No Will Smith is a shame; would love to see a scene where they discuss Earth/Earf and the welcoming to it thereof.

Honestly, I'm kind of done with Will Smith except in MiB. He's just gotten too obsessed with his stupid kid and he plays the same character in every movie. I'm fine with it in MiB because it fits but...meh. |

He is an actor. He gets paid to entertain. If he makes horrible movies, it is our own dang fault for getting him paid for them.
