Because people love to pick this detail apart, I just wanted to mention, there is a deleted scene from this movie where they explain that all modern technology, including computers and computer chips, were created based off of the alien space ship from the 60's. While there's still a lot of "movie hacking" going on, they at least did try to account for this in the original storyline. I wish they had kept it over some of the scenes, but it was cut for time. Glad you seemed to have fun with it.

Only a very select few (about half a million Germans) will appreciate Pullman's speech moment as it was the inspiration for the android candidate for the presidency in the country "Qualityland" in the novel/audionovel "Qualityland" by Marc-Uwe Kling. It's a comedy/dystopia novel where everything is decided and provided to everybody through modern tech, delivery drones and in-ear personal devices. The Shop sends you what you want (because they know what you want), ones social and working class status, even the partners you date, are dictated by a social level status from 1 to 100, and our robot scrapper hero Peter Jobless (kids are named after their parent's profession at their moment of conception), who is level 10, is on a quest to return an unwanted item. The presidential race in the background makes it necessary for John of Us, the android candidate (whose "likeness in appearance in the old movie, "Independence Day" was a deliberate design feature), to even recite the ID Pullman speech at a campaign dinner. The book is very scary. And hilarious.

Originally (and you can watch the deleted scenes online), Russell got rejected because he was drunk when he tried to volunteer as a fighter pilot, and when the president asks "Doesn't anyone have any missiles left?" Russell shows up in his crop duster biplane with a missile strapped to it already intending to sacrifice himself by ramming the alien ship's primary weapon. However, the sight of the slow biplane keeping pace with the F-18s that were protecting it looked ridiculous, so it was changed. Also, in the final version, the audience gets that dramatic punch of seeing Russell going from triumphant as he tells the president that he's got a missile to tragic as he makes the choice to sacrifice himself while looking at the photo of his children.

@ 25:10 If it's the legendary Roswell crash, that happened just after after the 4th of July 1947. There's a TV movie made in 1994 about the incident called "Roswell" with Martin Sheen, Kyle MacLachlan, Dwight Yoakum, you might find interesting; as well as several documentaries on that one. Although in Independence Day they kept referring to the alien crash in the '50s, back in '96 we thought they were referencing the '47 crash. There was a very recent and historic Congressional hearing on the UFO topic, the first in 50 years, that you should check out. It's about an hour and half, and very interesting and very different approach to the topic. It was open, and they had a closed hearing right after. 🖖😎

They are also looking into other nations, and our own gov, possibly attaining this huge tech advantage encountered by our military in the last 20 years or so (Russian, Chinese, etc)... BUT they weren't outright dismissing ET either, and announced the gov will not "stigmatize" those reporting sightings/encounters any longer to encourage more reporting. By chance have you seen the UFO Disclosure Project, a May 2001 successful press conference at the National Press Club in DC (rather historic too)? It was put together by Dr. Steven Greer with MANY credible government, military & civilian witnesses in an effort to prompt Congress into having hearings with their witnesses. Of course Congress didn't bite... then! To make sure you find the right video its full title is "THE DISCLOSURE PROJECT UFO TRUTH MAY 9, 2001 NATIONAL PRESS CLUB CONFERENCE WASHINGTON DC" and is 1 hour 55 minutes. It's very worth it if you have an interest in the subject, and very worth it to hear all these witnesses stories. 👍

I think your channel should be growing quickly. I hope it is. You are a reaction watcher’s dream. We all know that it’s not plausible for thousands of reaction channels to have never seen any movies let alone the huge movies the whole world knows. So we all just pretend the lie of “first time watching” isn’t what’s really going on because we have no other choice but to pretend. But you sir….you are someone who really has never watched movies at all in your life because of your career circumstances previously. That’s impossible to find. Someone who sincerely has never seen any movies in their life?! Wow! You are a rare find and a gem! I think we like watching reactions because it’s as close as you can get to seeing iconic stuff for the first time yourself. There’s only one first time so it’s fun to watch other’s first times. Your reactions are wonderful. You immerse yourself into the plots and it’s fu to see. You also have a very infectious laugh and your enjoyment really shows through. Keep it up.

6:51 i just noticed that is sergeant cotrair from CHiPs. John Pine I think his name is. Didn't recognize his face but the voice. 30 years later he still looked the same.

You recognized Data. For a very different sort of alien movie with Jeff Goldblum, I recommend Earth Girls Are Easy (1988).

Harry Connick Jr. is also in the film "CopyCat". which is a terrific thriller starring Sigourney Weaver and Holly Hunter.

Hope Floats with HC jr and Sandra Bollock is excellent. I think the little girl who played the president's daughter is in it as well.

Well, not centuries, but almost one century, depending how you count it. The first big, critically acclaimed, special effects laden, sci-fi film, Metropolis, the first Oscar-winning Best Picture, Wings, and the first movie with sound, The Jazz Singer, all came out in 1927. That's when I'd say motion pictures had come into their own. At the time of writing, we're only about five years from the centennial anniversary of a major new art form.

Yeah, I love how they look at the crop dusting dude like he's nuts for mentioning he was abducted by aliens... while it is now known that not only do aliens exist but they are currently and have in the past visited earth, with hostile intentions.

This was such a great movie when it came out. I think this is a great example of how a modern alien invasion story can be done right. I also felt like the characters were likeable and believable, which really makes watching the film fun. As unbelievable as the plot is, that is part of what makes it so much fun to watch. I especially enjoy the chemistry between Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum.

I can’t imagine that the time zone would actually make any difference at all. He’s not saying the countdown is going to happen at 7 PM. He is saying it’s going to happen in seven hours. Seven hours from whatever time it is in California is still seven hours, from whatever time it is in New York. The time on the clock may be different but the time on the stopwatch/timer will still be the same. Does that make any sense?

I grew up super-rural PA and didn't have broadcast TV until I was 10, and then it was only 4 channels (pbs was the 4th), and I barely watched, but before that we still had A TV with a VCR and I watched lots and lots and lots of movies growing up was watching stuff like Witness, Beverly Hills Cop, Emerald Forest by age 4-5, and by age 10 was pretty much an 'adult' viewer aside from gory horror and super-sexy stuff, which by 13, was then changed and I was renting it all
