If it is not in 20 years, then it will be too soon

I predict this board will almost universally criticize this movie and declare it a terrible film without seeing it.

Don't see the second one

I saw it and enjoyed it for what it is. Was it cliched and predictable? Yes. Was it still fun to watch? Yes.

He pretty much gives away the ending and who survives the current film in that interview.

they should have waited to make sure this one won't be a box office disappointment

That's a good attitude

Do we really need another one?

The main issue is the god awful editing but that seems to be an issue with most movies these days.

SPOILERS Roland!! ID4 2 should've been made in the early 2000's. It's a shame it took this long to come out with a second one.

World ending stakes and mass destruction have become a staple of blockbusters, but it turns out Roland Emmerich believes that everything which followed Independence Day in 1996 has basically been stealing from him, particularly superhero movies. There's certainly a case to be made for that being a game changer, but the filmmaker clearly has an extremely high opinion of himself!
"I felt that when I saw some of these Marvel movies or DC movies from Warners," Emmerich tells Loaded of how he believes the superhero genre has been borrowing from his back catalogue. "I felt, ‘oh my God that looks familiar to me’. Why is Superman bashing so many buildings? I was actually warned already by Steven Spielberg that this will happen. He said Independence Day will be the most imitated film of the next 20 years – and he was right. Smart man." Well, that's...egotistical?
There's no denying that the director's work has played a role in inspiring blockbusters, but the big difference is that the vast majority of Marvel and DC adaptations are infinitely better than his work!
Talking more about why he has no interest in the superhero genre, Emmerich added: "Very early in my career I was offered one or two of those, but it’s not my kind of film. I grew up in Germany and we weren’t big on superheroes to begin with – they didn’t work as well as everywhere else in the world. Only now they work very well. I just also felt that I wanted to make my own films. I pride myself to make originals. Even Independence Day: Resurgence is quite original for a sequel because it’s more the continuation of the story."

Are there actually people who go to see high art in the summer?
I want them blowing shite up.
The artsy movies come out right at the end of the year so they are freshest in award voters' minds.
