Independence Day 2

[Rammy]

They've hinted there'll be a teaser trailer at tonights SuperBowl....before deleting the Facebook status ten minutes later.

 

[Oaf]

Oh yeah, the best thing about the Superbowl... the half time trailers!

If I wake up to an Independence Day 2 trailer tomorrow, I'm going to get rather excited.

James. Leave your ID2 love over on TFF.

Just admit you're excited for the teaser trailer!

 

[Oaf]

Jurassic World and Age of Ultron are both expected to have spots as well. AoU will likely just have a short spot as the second trailer came out recently, but I'd expect that we should get a nice big juicy new look at JW. Exciting!

It did? *goes off to search YouTube*

 

[Oaf]

There was no trailer James.

LIAR.

 

[Rammy]

They trolled us all.

THE OFFICIAL TRAILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111

 

[allouso]

Oh James, i'm going to be absolutely battering you for this movie when i watch it a month before you do

Was a good trailer, although I thought it was a bit too dark compared to the first

 

[spireite]

I thought the first one was truly awful

 

[Destruction]

No Will Smith?

Fuck that.

 

[Pagnell]

Looks as shit as the first film, and that's some achievement.

 

[Oaf]

Eeeeeh. Great homage to the first film and all that, but it still looks unnecessary. The first one was so damned good (shut the fuck up) and told such a great, self contained story. This just looks like a CGI fest made to cash in big bucks at the box office, which is always what I feared it would be.

Still, the ID fanboy in me can't help but hope I'm wrong and they can deliver something worthy of following the first film. And like I said, even though it didn't make the movie itself look all that great, that trailer still hit me right in the nostalgia.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

They've made it grey and gritty.

I'm shocked about that too. I mean, who'd have expected that with a Roland Emmerich film?

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

Isn't that what the original one was too? Pretty awful film but great graphics for its time.

 

[Destruction]

You've gone too far now Pags.

You said all this about Jurassic World, and then loved it!

 

[S2_Blade]

What is the longest break for a sequel ? because this is 20 years since first one been released.

Loved first one and never really a fan of sequels but I will look forward to it and hope it does the first one justice !

28 years between Tron and Tron Legacy is one that springs to mind in terms of a full sequel to an original film. I'm sure someone can think of an example of a bigger gap though.

 

[Martino Knockavelli]

Sunrise - 1927
Before Sunrise - 1995

 

[Pagnell]

Bambi - 1942
Bambi II - 2006

This is certainly a more interesting use of the thread than the subject.

 

[S2_Blade]

haha I know wikipedia can't always be trusted but some of gaps between sequels are amazing ! Because most now are planned already to bring in the money more than to create a quality follow up.

 

[Gladders]

What's the sequel going to be about? Have the aliens uninstalled their free copy of Norton and downloaded AVG?

 

[Oaf]

You said all this about Jurassic World, and then loved it!

This is true, and this is why I still have hope that I'm wrong about it.

 

[mowgli]

No Will Smith?

Fuck that.

As he's not in it i'll give this a look, his ott acting in the original ruined it for me.

 

[Pagnell]

Yeah. Will Smith's acting is the only thing about the first film that was bad!

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

I enjoy Independence Day. It's my go-to brains-off adventure flick along with Starship Troopers and Avengers.

This looks shite though.

 

[Rammy]

It'll be amazing, you all know it!

But will it become my new favourite movie of all time?!?
