Critics hate them because it's cool to hate Emmerich. All of them made a lot of money, they were hugely successful.

And The Patriot isn't garbage no matter how you try to spin it. Simply put, it's a great historical movie.

Xaos - those are only the US numbers. 10000 BC made over 300 million worldwide.

Labor Day. Focusing on Jeff Goldblum's effort to rebuild his house.

[QUOTE="sSubZerOo"] By great historical movie you mean grossly inaccurate with the only things they were able to get generally correct was that the colonies were at war with Great Britian?Baranga

Damn, I guess Spartacus or Saving Private Ryan aren't historical either.

Seriously who can actually characterize any of these movies as amazing or exceptional? 10,000 BC was AWFUL...sSubZerOo

The invasion of Normandy is the only correct element of the story. Everything else, including the battle at the end, is fictional.

Both movies were written by the same guy anyway. Emmerich had nothing to do with TP's plot.

didn't they axe the idea of a sequel because it wouldn't work

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo please, Ganesh no!!!!!

It was the biggest jingoism trash movie ever...

I actually enjoyed this moving. I'd look forward to seeing a sequel.

based on history does not mean historical. It sounds odd, I know, but simply because a director says "OK, we are going to put this movie during the Revolutionary War" does not mean any actions within the movie are historical.

Historical, imo at least, implies non-fiction.

You can use any other term you want; quasihistorical, semihistorical, fictionalized historical...just dont call it historical

Schindler's List is a historical movie because it is based on actual events and reenacts them
That movie with Matthew Broderick where he leads the black soldiers during the US Civil War is historical because it is based on real events and reenacts them

They should call it Dependence Day.get-ka12

No. Independence Night.

Or if you've seen South Park much...One Day Before the Day After Independence Day.

Independence Day was cool. A sequel? Nor exactly looking forward to it.

no thank you

That is fantastic news, cant wait!

I loved that movie, but a sequel? No thanks. What's it going to be about? The aliens come back and blow up everything...again?

Sequel should be interesting. It doesn't have to have Will Smith, maybe it's like 30years in the future or something. Anyways, one script i heard about AGES ago was that the aliens invade and this time it's more of a ground war and space battles. Like the first mothership was just a scouting ship or first wave or something.

I liked it for the mass explosions. But everything was mediocre >_>

Why would they need a sequel? Another alien race comes? XD

Independence Day was good - why try to push your luck and make a sequel to it? Sequels RARELY succeed at maintaining the quality of the first film, and even fewer end up being better. However, this is the case of neither, as trying to stretch the whole premise of Independence Day into another movie will just not have anywhere near the same effect. It's just best left alone, I think.dbz345

Good way to get free advertising by making a controversy

I loved this movie as a kid, and I still get a kick out of it. It's corny as hell, but I still love Bill Pullman's speech as the President lol. As intrigued as I am about a sequel, I just don't see how they could come up with a legitimate continuation of the story.

If they don't get Will Smith I won't be watching it.(if it even comes out)

All that guy's movies have sucked since ID4.

Day After Tomorrow - awful

10,000 BC - awful

2012 - probably awful too

Special Effects are only 50% of a movie. You need quality actors and an actual story in order for it to be a complete movie.

ehhhh it might be good or it might be trash

Am i the only one who thinks this guy is worse than Michael Bay?
