Looks like we wont be seeing an Independence Day 3 anytime soon.
>>71198868
so maybe 5 years for the threequel then/
Good
It was shit
>go to kill aliens
>it ain't me starts playing
I literally just paid 20 bucks to see the first movie and walked out before the second even started
>>71198868
This is what they get for dissing Will Smith.
>>71198868
I'm not even sure if I'll download this piece of shit
>>71198959
would do the same, desu
Few cinemas near me held an Indiana Jones Marathon couple of months ago. To just relive that on the big screen is awesome
Skipped 4, though
This dude looks like he'll save the movie's opening night:

I hope this sequel culture fucking fucks off soon.
>>71198868
>Ghostbusters will open to #1 $125 million
You know it to be true
The imax showings here are sold out but im the only one in the regular showing atm.
>>71199035
that faggot didn't want to be in it..
>>71198868
>Expecting this to be a blockbuster
It's going to be a good summer chill film where you can turn your brain off and be comfy
First movie is complete garbage shlock.
Second is probably is too.
I love Jeff Goldblum, but no one could save this disaster.
Everyone's waiting to see it on Independence Day bro.
>>71198868
give it 20 years
cap this
movies for smart people usually don't do well in the box office
flicks usually make the most money
>>71200213
Please don't meme this into freedomkino, or something similar
>>71200424
This is literally space/america/freedomkino
Name ONE film that is better.
Good!
So fundamentally a BAD movie
The first flick got by on HUMOR, on FUN, on ACTION, on CHARACTER
This one is BLAND BORING and POORLY ACTED
Liam Hemsworth and baby Will Smith are TERRIBLE. The older cast PHONES IT IN.
There is NO ALIENS until 30 minutes into the movie!!
Compare that to the first film, where the FIRST SHOT is aliens!!
Roland Emmerich has learned NOTHING about filmmaking over the decades !!
DO NOT TRUST HIM AGAIN HOLLYWOOD
>>71198868
anyone watch this dreck yet? i'm on the fence. i have sweet nostalgia about the first one and i love watching shit explode but i dunno if this is worth the trouble
>>71200766
It starts in 40 mins for me. Lots of ppl will be posting soon.
>>71200577
>There is NO ALIENS until 30 minutes into the movie!!
WTF are you talking about? you have aliens since almost the beginning...
Mars Attacks sequel when?rewatched the it recently and I liked it more than Independence Day tbqh
>>71198959
Congratulations you paid for two movies and only watched one
>>71201125
Ack aak
Not surprising since 2016 has been a disappointing year for sequels, both in quality and box office. The only exceptions are Finding Dory and Civil War.
>>71200577
>where the FIRST SHOT is aliens!!
Oh (You)
>>71198868
So will the next film be called D-day?Since you know, humans will be attacking this time
>>71201294
>Civil war
>good
Its not even better than Winter Soldier.
loved the first one, but I was 11
never really thought too much about it since then
![dory_fish[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/Hgjv0Fx.jpg "dory_fish[1].jpg")
can anything stop her?
>>71199035
It was the other way around.
>>71198868
Hopefully this will be the beginning of the end for the "let's make a sequel/remake 20 years later for no reason" meme.
>>71198868
That girl is cute.
>>71201125
shutup faggot dont bring classics into this
>>71202782
I believe Ghostbusters will be the end, but it needs to flop really hard.
>>71202782
The reason is banking on nostalgia due to a lack of new ideas.
Why have there been so many fucking flops this summer
>>71203141
it's tracking around 40-50 million right now
>>71201224
>see both movies for the price of one ticket
>>71203562
With Netflix and a billion streaming sources people just don't have to gamble on dogshit movies hoping to find a good one.
>>71203581
What the hell does that even mean?
>>71198868
This type of movies are "pre war" not "post war" or "war fatigue" era, when you have couple of years of peace then you use this crappy shitty propaganda movies to rile up shitheads and prepare them for some war somewhere.
>that president's speech
>that will smith warm welcome of alien on earth
>only thing I think brought people in theaters in first part was sand-people watching White House blown to shit
Yeah, nah, it was OK movie when i was 46, im not that naive now...
>>71199630
http://screenrant.com/ghostbusters-opening-box-office-tracking/
tracking between $40 to 50 Million.
they're being optimistic here, it'll do worst than Fant4stic
Oh shit this was supposed to be THE summer movie.
>Huntsman 2 underperformed
>TMNT 2 underperformed
>Alice 2 underperformed
>Zoolander 2 underperformed
>X-Men Apocalypse underperformed
>Neighbors 2 underperformed
>Now You See me 2 underperformed
Sequels keep bombing in the US, good thing we have China and yuropoors to save all the shitty movies.
>>71205322
China will can't save this trainwreck, they still the ghost ban in effect.
http://collider.com/crimson-peak-ghostbusters-reboot-china-no-ghost-rule/
>>71199343
I can totally feel where this guy is coming from. For years I worked a summer job where we would frequently get foreign students to work and get acquainted with conversational English and pocket money in the States before doing a semester or to in College. At first they're still pretty defensive about China but after a while they realize that they aren't constantly breathing in poison and how comparatively laid-back everything is and they can't get enough of it. It's pretty sad, really.
Just saw the movie. It exceeded my expectations but with the material in it they totally could have done something more interesting. For example, the psychic link many people had in anticipation of the large ship was something almost like the beginning of The Call of Cthulhu; if only they had done that a bit more subtly to build up suspense.
The wife's son of Will Smith's character was especially bad. I wanted him to die or at least someone to notice he was his wife's son, not his real son. All the new kids were terrible but the wife's son surpassed the rest
>>71198868
whos the qt to the left?
>>71205606
the qt from It Follows
>>71203562
The Cult of Rotten Tomatoes has never been stronger
Unless its "Certified Fresh" then don't waste your money.
>>71205585
Literally the worst part of the movie, even the queen was better...
>>71205606
Maika Monroe
>>71205623
thanks anon
Liam Hemsworth isn't lead material. Well, at least he's not on Fembusters
>>71198868
Fox Studios
>>71205703
thanks anon
The only good part was when the black warlord said "YOU HAVE DA HEART OF A WARRIOR" to John Oliver.
Otherwise this was one of the dumbest movies I've ever seen, and not in a fun way, but rather than it just kept dragging on and the script was so awful.
>>71198959
> bieng this retarded
By the way you also supported this shitty sequel, your money speaks louder than your autism
>>71205754
Disney
>>71205668
You say that but I actually do agree with RT a majority of the time.
>>71199562
You realize it exists since the beginning of Hollywood? Maybe you shouldn't watch blockbuster movies in the first place.
>>71199194
>>71201224
>>71205760
I saw the movie I wanted to see and I don't give a fuck where the money goes. About half the people in the theater left after the first movie and didn't bother staying for the second.
Also, it was in 3D. If it was 2D I might have considered staying, but there's no way in hell I'm going to sit through 2 hours of 3D bullshit.
>>71205322
>Civil War whooped ass
>THIS MOVIE COMES OUT ON THE SAME DAY AS #BREXIT
Am I the only one who found the destruction scenes too over the top? Yeah, I know this is an Emmerich movie and an ID4 sequel so people expect huge destruction scenes but they were so big and exaggerate that they look cartoonish and it was laughing at the theater rather than feeling excitement or astounding. Whendiscount Will Smith's mom felt from the collapsing hospital, I thought on Willie E Coyote.
>>71205821
You forgot Alice 2 buddy
I really enjoyed the movie but then again I had just watched jupiter ascending in its entirety so I could jave watched video of Melissa McCarthy fucking Rosie O'Donnell and Whoopie Goldberg and found it bearable.
>>71206252
Alice 2 wasn't one of Disney's big franchises.
>>71206293
Alice 1 was one of the first movies to gross a billion dollars, which was back when it meant something.
>>71206330
Are we talking about Alice in Wonderland with Johnny TooDeep?
True, I went to watch the movie in theaters, and in 3d no less, but purely because I was out of the loop(I still considered Tim Burton as a guy who made Bettlejuice,The Big Fish,Scizorhand and Batman) and Im an huuuge Lewis Carol fag.
Movie disappointed me enormously , but they got my money already.
It wasn't a flop?
>>71206124
>If the predications now are right this will be a victory for real people, a victory for ordinary people, a victory for decent people. We have fought against the multinationals, against the big merchant banks, against big politics, against lies against lies, corruption and deceit and today honesty and decency and belief in nation I think now is going to win.
>We will have done it without having to fight, without a single bullet having been fired.
>I hope this victory brings down this failed projects and brings us to a Europe of sovereign nation states trading together.
>Let’s June the 23rd go down in our history as our independence day resurgence.
>>71206330
That was 6 years ago. Besides, the girls market is monopolized by Frozen. Franchises aren't about the box office, they're about selling toys and related merchandise. The movie is just part of the product.
I liked it. The big shit felt big and I got that nice "humanity fuck yeah" feeling from it. Too much China-pandering though.
>Let's kick some alien butts!
What did he mean by this?
>>71206676
Surprise buttsex
for those that have seen it, who has the most screen time - old cast or new cast?
>>71206719
Both got their fair share.
>>71205703
My waifu
>tfw I know a girl who looks EXACTLY like her but with dark hair
>>71206661
>Too much China-pandering though.
The Chinese pilot is a chick and China hates women, they hate them so much that they kill their daughters during the one child policy. Also, it's implied she's going to fuck a beta faggot, self-insert for the nerd audience. That's fucking horrible from a female perspective.
>>71206779
I didn't say it was good or effective China-pandering, just that the first third of the movie had "China" as every fourth word.
>>71206773
she had dark hair in the Fifth Wave
The new added characters were so unneded and had no impact whatsoever, plus the Waifusphere of interestelar rebel force was fucking awful but the moon-sized planet mining ship hit me in my soft spot
>>71205668
>RT is how people decide on movies now
I dont know how it is worldwide but it seems to be true in the US. BvS is like the only rotten movie to do well, but that had years of capeshit hype thrown in.
It was great how the bigass ship just scraping itself on the moon felt like the aliens dragging their massive dong on humanity's face.
>>71206779
i thought the girl they got was some big star over there
>>71206242
I actually enoyed to watch the not-son of Will Smith suffer, really that character was an ass (specially to the Thor-brother)...
Why was John Oliver in this movie?
>>71205821
>>71207136
The wife's son was so fucking terrible he almost made Thor's brother to look charming by comparison. Almost...
>>71200157
This. I'm willing to bet that the studio is betting on that too.
I had no issues with the first movie.
Then fucking RLM ruined it for me.
I don't mind it but I guess I can see how schlocky it is.
>>71206595
>It wasn't a flop?
Why the fuck would you assume that, especially since it got a sequel?
>>71207375
>Then fucking RLM ruined it for me.
Uh, fucking watching the film itself should ruin it for you. It sucked donkey dick.
>>71207375
It's so weird to me that RLM htes this movie. Yeah, it's stupid and shlocky, but it never pretended to be anything different. It's a feel good movie against an enemy everybody is ok to hate.
Yeah the characters are super broad and not terribly, deep, but so what? They are each pretty unique and fun.
The action is exciting and varied.
The final plan is so stupid, but its fun. It's a groaner War of the Worlds reference that plays fun.
This movie, dare I say it, winks at the audience. It's all good natured shlock and RLM hating it really shocked me. But Mike also hated Escape from New York, so maybe his drinking is giving him brain problems.
>>71207553
Mike works for the Mouse now
>>71207375
>I liked the first movie, but then some guy on the internet told me not to and I listened
>>71207553
Yeah Im pretty sure the movie is meant to be an updated 50s alien invasion b-movie and it works well.
>>71207553
>but it never pretended to be anything different.
So if shit is meant to be shit, then it's good? I don't think so.
>>71207803
It's meant to be an big scale sci-fi action movie with a decent paced plot that doesn't get bogged down. It has broad and varied characters vs. an evil overwhelming enemy.
It's a really old story setup, and the movie plays it out with fighter jets, Area 51, and dogs jumping from explosions.
It succeeds at being these things.
Does this movie have the classic stereotypes of the first one or is it all toned down? I know Heebie Kikeburger is in it, but does he act as jewey?
>>71207867
>It's meant to be an big scale sci-fi action movie with a decent paced plot that doesn't get bogged down.
Well it's too bad it's none of those things.
>>71207912
>I know Heebie Kikeburger is in it, but does he act as jewey?
He sells a book with his face on the cover called "How I Saved The World"
>>71207969
>Big scale
The story is very large in scale
>sci-fi
Aliens and shit put it pretty solidly in sci-fi territory.
>Decent paced plot
It clips right along.
>>71200147
There is nothing more useless than an RLM-watcher, literal cuckolds.
You don't even watch movies yourselves, you watch other people review movies.
>alien movie
>It ain't me
>>71198868
>Free State of Jones, Blake Lively must survive a killer shark in The Shallows and Broad Green is delivering Nicolas Winding Refn's The Neon Demon, it's a crowded marketplace
Are these niggers serious? If that shit is the competition Resurgence is gonna clean house.
>>71208029
I didn't even watch RLM's review of Independence Day. I'm sure they were disapproving of it.
Nice meme though, friend.
>>71207986
Jim Norton? Is that you?
>ID2's budget was $165 million
Shit, where did all of that go? The cast is full of literally whos and guys like Pullman, Spiner, and Goldberg costing only a couple grand. The special effects were also pretty bad in several scenes.
Britain will save its box office.
>>71208799
The special effects. I was critic of the movie and even I had to admit it had pretty nice polish. Same with the Ghostbusters reboot, they at least look slick.
>>71198959
Admittedly this is where my $15 was meant to go. I was only 3 when the movie came out, but it ended up being my favorite childhood movie. Even if the new movie had been worthless (which it wasn't, it just wasn't as good as the original), I'd be paying $15 to essentially fulfill a long-time wish to say I was able to see it in a real movie theater.
>>71208839
I watched the movie in 3D and it looks very good, I can't complain (maybe a little bit for the design of the queen, I would have prefered something more xenomorphy like)...
>>71202107
at least almost everyone agreed that it's great
>>71206676
Interstellar war resistance leaders.
>>71198868
Like anyone wanted this movie to happen now.
>>71205322
>China features heavily in the global organization that defends Earth in the movie
>One of the protags is a plucky Chicom daughter of a fallen pilot from the 1996 war
It's going to blow up in China
Aliens + Macross/Robotech + Halo + Armageddon = Independence Day Resurgence.
>>71209619
We really need to put China in their place soon or else there won't be a future for earthlings.
Japan really fucked up by ending their rape of nanking and attacking big boss America for no real reason except their feelings were hurt over oil.
>>71206893
literally gives me a reason to watch fifth wave
>>71203596
>20 bucks for one ticket
thats literally the price of 2 movie tickets, faggot

>>71207161
I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking that.
