I haven’t seen the movie in a while. I did a rewatch of ID4 and found the movie to be incredibly bad. What did I like about that movie when I saw in the 1990s. Or every time it was on cable tv I’d watch and not pay attention. its on in the background.
If I’m not wrong the fate of the remake trilogy of Stargate hinged on ID4 2 not being a flop and when that failed the trilogy was cancelled. The sequel was so bad, and didn’t have Will Smith in it. Resurgence. I’ve seen my fair share of bad sequels.
But they brought Brent Spiner back. LOL. Its Data from Star Trek the Next Generation.
Oh, I’m so happy the reboot trilogy didn’t happen. I like the original Independence Day for what it is, but the sequel was so goddamn horrendous, I couldn’t finish it. And two of the guys who worked on the script for it were hired to write the script for the Stargate remake. I don’t believe for a second it would’ve fixed any of the flaws with the original; it would’ve just been louder and stupider.
