I would love to see how you guys react to hitch hikers guide to the galaxy. That is another scifi movie and man is it hilarious. So many good jokes. Plus its based on a novel too. So you know its gonna be better than some hollywood original flick. It has Martin Freeman(sherlock holmes, the lord of the rings/the hobbit, black panther movies, Captain America: civil war), Warwick Davis ( as in Willow, leprachaun movies, starwars), Alan Rickman ( in Harry Potter as Snape, Galaxy quest, Alice in Wonderland 2010) and Bill Nighy (pirates of the carribean, harry potter 7, rango, IFrankenstein, and the Underworld movie franchise) among many more great actors and actresses. While I may not be a member of the patreon I did subscribe a while ago and love watching you guys react. I try and hop into these videos on youtube when I can and give a like. So... if you like the movie suggestion great! If not oh well.... IS WHAT YOU THOUGHT ID SAY! IF YOU DONT YOUR MAKING ONE OF THE GUYS WHO ACTUALLY SUBSCRIBED DOWN!! DONT LET ME DOWN GUYS!!
Except in the beginning half of you was cheering human deaths, 🙄. Caring more for the dog than people and children dying everywhere, that shows a lot of why we have the problems in this world today.
That was filmed near the Great Salt Lake in Utah. When the brine shrimp there die they sink to the bottom of the not very deep lake and decompose. When the wind is right the stink of thousands of rotting shrimp corpses can be overpowering. Nobody warned poor Will Smith.
Jeff Goldblum in "Jurassic Park": "Must go faster..." 🦖 Jeff Goldblum in "Independence Day": "MUST GO FASTER!" 👽 Also, this was unreal to see in the theater. What a time to be a moviegoer because the special effects were amazing and seeing the Empire State Building blowing up was such a sight to see!
@@chrisellis3797 It was more like alien wifi, and the explanation is that human technology was heavily based on the investigation of the alien spacecraft. So human wifi and alien wifi would be somewhat compatible, possibly with slight modifications required.
The "alien inside the alien" was the actual alien inside a biomechanical exoskeleton -- a biologically based spacesuit/armored suit, in effect. The story is that the production designer gave the director two different designs for the aliens. The director liked both of them so much that he *used* both of them; one became the actual alien, and the other became the biomechanical armored exoskeleton suit.
What adds to it is during the Speech if you look around you see pilots not just USAF but the RAF and other NATO countries really adds to the sense of unity of the species.
Dude, the pilot in the helicopter that died in the first 10 or so, he went to my high school. Great guy, everyone liked him and were so proud. But that’s all I’ve seen him in. Funny tidbit, he’s colorblind. His younger brother always put his clothes out matched up. You knew they were fighting if he came to school in unmatched clothes.
@@w1975b That's actually a big fat scam, they don't do anything besides tinting your view a redder shade (literal rose tinted glasses), they've just used a lot of sponsored influencers to successfully promote it as functional. If anything they actually make your color-perception worse.
I love that in the entire movie Russell is always seen to be crazy, even when the aliens are attacking, and he ends up being one of the main heroes of the movie. Respect for Russell 🤘
I believe that the two Army guys thought he was a nut and wouldn't last more than five minutes in the fight so they purposely gave him a defective plane. It's their fault he died. No one will ever convince me otherwise.
I agree. When the situation called for it he stepped up and gave his life to save everyone. I'm saying he shouldn't have had to, if the Army guys had assigned him to a plane that functioned properly his missile would have fired and he would have still saved everyone, he just wouldn't have had to die.
"Independence Day": The Science Fiction/Action movie that made Will Smith a movie star and Bill Pullman an iconic "hands-on" President. Otherwise, a tale about resilience in the face of extermination.
I love how when those secret service guys heard that the glass wasn’t bullet proof they were like “That’s all we needed” and had guns drawn ready to shoot
The guy who played Will Smiths wingman “Jimmy “is Harry Connick Jr. He is a singer who has had 7 top 20 US albums and has sold over 30 million records worldwide. If caught flying intoxicated the pilot not only loses his flying license but also their driver’s license, and vice versa. Great reaction!
Movie was the definition of my childhood. Was on constant repeat on VHS after school. The fighter jet scene was so cool but the entire end sequence was so inspiring and patriotic. Even if you're not from America you can get hyped by this man leading the charge against fuccing aliens.
Loved this when it came out, and I watched it several times in the week following 9/11 because it was comforting. The enemy was known, obvious, and defeatable, and the US military got the job done. So reassuring.
The actor with the raspy voice is Harvey Fierstein. From Wikipedia: Fierstein's distinctive gravelly voice is a result of an overdeveloped vestibular fold in his vocal cords, essentially giving him a "double voice" when he speaks.
I was 13 when this came out, and I saw this on opening day. Almost 30 years later, it's still up there with movies like Infinity War and Endgame as one of my favorite theater experiences of all time. You two would have had an absolute fuckin blast seein this in a theater back then, the atmosphere was positively electric.
It’s always the funny man that dies because once that happens the tone of the film automatically raises the stakes and shifts the dynamic to a more serious tone.
23:03 That line becomes even funnier when you know that “And what the hell is that smell” was not in the script. They were filming this on the Salt Flats in Utah. The “smell” Will is referring to is from dead brine shrimp. Nobody warned him about it.
That movie is fantastic! I had the chance to see it in theaters at age 14; Was mesmerizing!! It was the beginning of a new era of movie with the likes of Jurassic PArk, Titanic, Die Hard, Terminator 2, and so much more!!
@@kriscynical Yep, Will Smith not being in it, killing off the President and the main reason I didn't watch it, they didn't want to bring back Mae Whitman to play the President's daughter because they thought she wasn't pretty enough and hired some skinny blonde instead. So screw that movie. It was dead on arrival.
The writing was pretty dumpster fire, too. I can't believe they just hand-waved David's wife and had him messing around with some random woman instead. Way to character assassinate a man who didn't stop loving his wife even after divorce!
Vivica Fox is in this movie, she also played Vernita Green, Copperhead in The Kill Bill Volumes. Kill Bill is what got me into watching reactions and it's the first reaction that I saw from you guys. You guys are so amazing!!! LIKE This Video!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
No they just flew by the moon. I saw this in the theaters with my mom when I was 8, I still remember everyone jumping and laughing after the alien autopsy jump scare
ID4 has some of the best casting and I love the story of it all! Will Smith had some of the funniest coolest parts and I love that Randy Quaid sacrificed himself to save everyone! Jeff G was SO good and The President - what a speech! 👽
There are two movies I saw in the theater as a teen where I made the mistake of drinking a large soda but then being SO wrapped up in the movie that I couldn't take a bathroom break, "Speed" and this 😂
Saw this movie at midnight of July 3rd/July 4th in a 1000 seat packed theater in Schaumburg, IL. It was the rowdiest crowd I ever seen. The most fun ever.
😂 today is independence day in my country! Was so hilarious when i saw the notification tittle looool! Loving your energy!! Im so hyped for this reaction!! Im ready for these aliens!!
When I saw "Independence Day" in the theater: "Come over to the window." "And I'm looking for what?" "You'll see." The whole audience is completely perplexed and/or laughing histerically. On screne is a cow standing in a field. At the exact moment she looks out the Whitehouse window there is an error with the reels and the premovie ad reel resumes playing.
Love the film. Underrated, because people still hates on this film, which I don't get. Great cast of Will Smith, Jeff Goldblum and Bill Pullman. Great special effects and music and humor. Jeff Goldblum's "Must Go Faster" is callback when he said it in Jurassic Park.
When this came out in theaters, in Edmonton, people cheered while watching as the white house blew up. The joke was, the 1812 war was the last time part of the white house was destroyed by british and canadians and now aliens. 😄
It's funny how the doctors tell the President that they can't stop the bleeding of the First Lady, yet when we see her she's just laying there with oxygen and an IV. I would imagine in order to stop the bleeding, perhaps a little surgery might be in order. She definitely wouldn't have been in talking condition. That part is about as funny as when Will Smith's character comes to realization that the alien ships have force fields, and he suddenly yells for everyone to "PULL UP!! PULL UP!!" They were literally about to run smack into that ship. I'm pretty sure pulling up would've been needed anyways, and quick.
@@-M0LE Hey man... you doing that thing where you scroll through the comments section looking for anyone who has a particular opinion you don't like so you can let them know you think they're wrong? I see you, man. I don't agree with you, but I see you ;)
@@rbrainsop1 I see them too. But we should stop feeding the troll. They're English and butt-hurt because the English used to be the aliens moving from one location to another where they exterminate/enslave the population and take over.
@@RobGamesOn I do look for these comments as it still amazes me that Americans pretty much universally don't find that speech in the least amusing, and actually think it's unironically great - and so it's been really interesting to see the reaction to someone not thinking this speech was awesome. I'm also from the UK and have only ever seen rolled eyes in reaction to that speech. It's SO American, to the point it sounds like a pastiche. To an American used to that kind of earnestness it may sound normal, but to a non American it does sound kind of silly.
I saw this movie opening week on Independence Day. The entire audience cheered after the presidents speech. You couldn’t help but feel patriotic after leaving this movie.
That speech is still the best pre-battle speech I’ve seen in a movie, that includes Braveheart, Pacific Rim and Two Towers/Return of the King speeches.
@@-M0LE Of course you don't... because you're English. The aliens in the movie move from one planet to another, exterminate (and/or subjugate) the existing population and completely take over the land. Sound familiar? Go back to wallowing in your post-colonialism shame and stop being such a butt-hurt troll in the comments.
I miss the '90-s scriptwritings. At the end when Russel has kamikazed himself into the alien spaceship, the president didn't give a grandiose speech, just simply gave a "good luck buddy" and that was perfect
I like how its always the American president in charge of an alien invasion. Those aliens would land, meet the president and be like "no intelligent life to be found...bye" 😂im joking :D
My husband served in the Marines as one of the VMFA-314 Black Knights. Every Marine Corps Ball they did a dedication to Capt. Steven Hiller for defeating the aliens 😂😂
Speaking of Aliens and AI robots, Will Smith did another movie called 'I Am Robot", if you have not already seen it, so glad you enjoyed Independence Day!
YES!! LOVE THIS MOVIE!! I saw this in the theater with my brother and sister and I was blown away on how awesome it is! It won the Oscar for Best Visual Effects. It made $817 million dollars ($1.4 billion dollars today) against a $75 million dollar budget.
You guys are awsome, when I'm not in mood I watch your videos and you have such a good humor and energy I love it , I like you guys , you always get me in the good mood.
Here's a fun fact: the aliens have those outer shells because the production designer came up with two different designs and the director liked them both so much they couldn't choose 😂
One of the greatest summer blockbusters ever. Meant for a July 3rd release. But then it was pushed back to July 2nd for huge demand. A cast of this size well built for a film this size and the actors they casted were all enjoyable to watch. dir. Emmerich & writer. Devlin, who are producers under the imprint of CENTROPOLIS Entertainment had prior hits (Universal Soldier, Stargate) and this was their biggest one yet. The teaser trailer had everybody losing it. Especially with The White House getting torched. The speech by Bill Pullman as president Whitmore to the last line of defense is one of the great movie speeches ever. The merchandise was crazy. Toys, video games, prequel publications (one was a novel and the other was a comic from by Marvel), etc. The cropduster's character was actually abducted as presented in Independence Day #0 from Marvel Comics. No.1 film of 1996 and Academy Award winner for Best Visual Effects. As for the 2016 sequel aka Resurgence........ Well you'll have to see that for yourself.
29:00 - I remember watching this on its release. The idea of humans hacking alien technology was deemed by many as poor story-telling. "How the heck can a laptop hack an alien spaceship?" was the general concensus. Then someone came up with a really cool theory, still far-fetched, but more plausible. This is how the theory goes... Since the capture of the first spaceship, the U.S. Government has been studying the alien technology and throughout the decades, whenever they made a technological breakthrough, they would 'leak' it into the general marketplace to stimulate the economy. GPS, Internnet, digital computing, etc. Cool, eh?
From IMDB's trivia section, re the president's inspirationsl speech -- "... the crowd was not scripted to start cheering. Bill Pullman's delivery of the speech was so good that they just started applauding and cheering on their own and the filmmakers kept it in the movie."
Now I wanna see these guys react to Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), The Abyss (1989), & Contact (1997). As well as the predecessor to this film, Stargate (1994).

I think it's been established as canon that the bio-suit is actually a completely separate alien race that was conquered and harvested.

@@-M0LE Hey man... you doing that thing where you scroll through the comments section looking for anyone who has a particular opinion you don't like so you can let them know you think they're wrong? I see you, man. I don't agree with you, but I see you ;)
@-M0LE you are literally the only person saying this... you have a right to your wrong opinion... but it is wrong nonetheless... lol
@@rbrainsop1 I see them too. But we should stop feeding the troll. They're English and butt-hurt because the English used to be the aliens moving from one location to another where they exterminate/enslave the population and take over.
@@RobGamesOn I do look for these comments as it still amazes me that Americans pretty much universally don't find that speech in the least amusing, and actually think it's unironically great - and so it's been really interesting to see the reaction to someone not thinking this speech was awesome. I'm also from the UK and have only ever seen rolled eyes in reaction to that speech. It's SO American, to the point it sounds like a pastiche. To an American used to that kind of earnestness it may sound normal, but to a non American it does sound kind of silly.
I would be afraid to go to military base if Aliens attacked. That is exactly where they would aim.
I saw this movie opening week on Independence Day. The entire audience cheered after the presidents speech. You couldn’t help but feel patriotic after leaving this movie.
That speech is still the best pre-battle speech I’ve seen in a movie, that includes Braveheart, Pacific Rim and Two Towers/Return of the King speeches.
It does nothing for me but I'm English and we don't do patriotism like Americans
@@-M0LE Of course you don't... because you're English. The aliens in the movie move from one planet to another, exterminate (and/or subjugate) the existing population and completely take over the land. Sound familiar? Go back to wallowing in your post-colonialism shame and stop being such a butt-hurt troll in the comments.
I miss the '90-s scriptwritings. At the end when Russel has kamikazed himself into the alien spaceship, the president didn't give a grandiose speech, just simply gave a "good luck buddy" and that was perfect
Nobody remembers that Jeff Goldblum says "Must go faster" in both this movie and Jurassic Park.
18:08 I love the juxtaposition of "kill those losers" on the building but "oh no the dog!"
(I agree.)
Greetings from New Mexico. The Land of enchantment, and aliens 😂
I like how its always the American president in charge of an alien invasion. Those aliens would land, meet the president and be like "no intelligent life to be found...bye" 😂im joking :D
No. There wasn't another alien inside of it. As they mentioned earlier, they wear bio suits.😂
My husband served in the Marines as one of the VMFA-314 Black Knights. Every Marine Corps Ball they did a dedication to Capt. Steven Hiller for defeating the aliens 😂😂
"He's kinda like a pistachio."
Made me laugh out loud.

This was my favorite movie back in the day and still one of my tops favorites today!
Speaking of Aliens and AI robots, Will Smith did another movie called 'I Am Robot", if you have not already seen it, so glad you enjoyed Independence Day!
It was I Robot... you are mixing it up with I Am Legend... lol
@@RobGamesOn (Thanks mate, I often watch OctoKrool when I should be sleeping) Lol
@@RobGamesOnthe mixup is cracking me tf up 😂💀
@@kishagirl92 🤣🤣🤣
I remember having action figure toys of these aliens as a kid.
YES!!
LOVE THIS MOVIE!!
I saw this in the theater with my brother and sister and I was blown away on how awesome it is!
It won the Oscar for Best Visual Effects.
It made $817 million dollars ($1.4 billion dollars today) against a $75 million dollar budget.
I love the fact that one brother has the other brother just laughing his ass off there at the end.
You guys are awsome, when I'm not in mood I watch your videos and you have such a good humor and energy I love it , I like you guys , you always get me in the good mood.
I'm glad we can boost your mood dude
🤣 "Why would you fly into it like that?"
Because it's a plane, not a car. You can't turn on a dime when you're flying in a plane.🤣
One of those movies I catch bits of every time it’s on. Always a favorite!
The guy with the gravly voice is Harvey Fierstein and yeah.. that is his normal speaking voice.
Here's a fun fact: the aliens have those outer shells because the production designer came up with two different designs and the director liked them both so much they couldn't choose 😂
grew up watching this and love it and love the end especially when he says hello boys im back
Harvey Fierstein's raspy voice is because of nodules on his throat. He's never smoked.

The "shell" is the biomechanical suit, the aliens uniform.
One of the greatest summer blockbusters ever.
Meant for a July 3rd release.
But then it was pushed back to July 2nd for huge demand.
A cast of this size well built for a film this size and the actors they casted were all enjoyable to watch.
dir. Emmerich & writer. Devlin, who are producers under the imprint of CENTROPOLIS Entertainment had prior hits (Universal Soldier, Stargate) and this was their biggest one yet.
The teaser trailer had everybody losing it.
Especially with The White House getting torched.
The speech by Bill Pullman as president Whitmore to the last line of defense is one of the great movie speeches ever.
The merchandise was crazy.
Toys, video games, prequel publications (one was a novel and the other was a comic from by Marvel), etc.
The cropduster's character was actually abducted as presented in Independence Day #0 from Marvel Comics.
No.1 film of 1996 and Academy Award winner for Best Visual Effects.
As for the 2016 sequel aka Resurgence........
Well you'll have to see that for yourself.
One of movies that shaped my childhood.
29:00 - I remember watching this on its release. The idea of humans hacking alien technology was deemed by many as poor story-telling. "How the heck can a laptop hack an alien spaceship?" was the general concensus. Then someone came up with a really cool theory, still far-fetched, but more plausible. This is how the theory goes...
Since the capture of the first spaceship, the U.S. Government has been studying the alien technology and throughout the decades, whenever they made a technological breakthrough, they would 'leak' it into the general marketplace to stimulate the economy. GPS, Internnet, digital computing, etc. Cool, eh?
Independence Day was the highest grossing film of the 1990s ($800+ Million) until Titanic ($1 Billion +) beat it over a year later.
From IMDB's trivia section, re the president's inspirationsl speech -- "... the crowd was not scripted to start cheering. Bill Pullman's delivery of the speech was so good that they just started applauding and cheering on their own and the filmmakers kept it in the movie."
Now I wanna see these guys react to Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), The Abyss (1989), & Contact (1997). As well as the predecessor to this film, Stargate (1994).
“Contact” is one of my favorite alien/space-ish movies. 10/10
‘We can’t hate eachother if we all hate someone who’s uglier!!!!’ 😂😂😂😂😂
