Are you going to react to the other independent day movies
When Will Smith shows up at the gate and says, "Here's my clearance," it's just perfect.
Meanwhile, the speech at the end spoken by the president? EPIC!!!!
Don't make the audio so choppy.
When they were entering the atmosphere, that wasn’t a weapon that’s just what happens when you hit our atmosphere at speed. It’s why our space shuttle has heat shielding. And the flame is proportional to the size of the item, they were 15 miles wide so that heat was probably a good quarter mile thick so just skimming it but still huge.
I remember taking my friend to see this in theaters. We were in middle school and my friend was the quiet type. I remember when the good old boys in the diner were bullying Russel she suddenly started shouting at the screen, “Leave him alone! What is WRONG with you?! He’s already having a bad day!”
It was so surprising and even in a full theater nobody got mad. Just a few chuckles and some muttering.
Then when the ship appears right after, she really lost her sh-t. “Oh, is it still FUNNY?! Who’s laughing NOW?!”
And at this point her vibe had kind of infected everyone and some people cheered while everyone else laughed. (I realize this is sounding like a “then everyone clapped,” moment, but it’s one of my favorite memories.)
It can absolutely happen. My bestie and I went to go watch Freddy vs Jason the weekend it came out and for some reason it just kept hitting our funny bone. What should have been a scary-ish movie for some had the whole theatre cracking up and making wise cracks at the movie. It was like watching with 60 or so of your favorite people. ❤😂
The president was one of the few trained and experienced fighter pilots left. He was needed in the air to give his daughter a chance to live. He was actually doing things the way commanders used to. Troops used to follow their commanders into battle. It's extremely rare for a modern army to do it that way.
Theodore Roosevelt literally disappeared for months with the Rough Ryders. While he was the acting Commander in Chief, this man took an expedition out west. For MONTHS.
And remember. This is 1900. The level of communication is horseback and Morse code. We could have been invaded, or something else hugely responsible for his input...And they wouldn't have found him till weeks later.
Those that want to talk about how President's check out and don't care, clearly don't remember that we had a sitting President who actually disappeared for several months while he was in power. This was also Spanish American War/Haiti rebellion time period.
Jeff Goldblum Jurassic Park: "Must go faster..." 🦖
Jeff Goldblum Independence Day: "Must GO FASTER!" 👽
Spielberg apparently got upset that Goldblum used that line in ID4
One of the best President speeches ever given in the history of cinema.
It wasn't in the reaction lol
"And what the hell is that smell?!?!??!!?!?!" Improvised line :)
Remember the beginning of the movie and how he beat his dad in Chess moves ahead. He figured out the aliens checkmate moves ahead.
Brent Spiner was amazing in this movie. Loved him as Data, too.
I get why you think the President made a mistake, he had a daughter to take care of, and a country to lead. But Earth was running out of "front line warriors", aka pilots. His daughter would still be provided for, the country would promote the next leader, but they couldn't provide or promote anymore pilots, they had to take what they could get, even crop dusters.
and as you likely know, "front line warriors" feel responsible, they always need to fulfil their duty, even after retirement. In that moment his duty was to humanity, not his daughter or his country.
"shooting bottle rockets at badass kids"😂😂😂😂
Pay back a bitch
That reminded me of a clip from Brazil where a bicyclist shoots bottle rockets at 2 jackholes on a motorscooter.
It won the Oscar for Best Visual Effects.
It made $817 million dollars ($1.4 billion dollars today) against a $75 million dollar budget.
A sequel, INDEPENDENCE DAY RESURGENCE was released in 2016, but it was not well received by critics or fans. It was a moderate success at the box office, $390 million dollars against a $150 million dollar budget.
Well the sequel made more than what was spent so that’s good!
@@DevinGtv901I hope you watch it it’s a good movie I like it more than the 1st and I’m 33 I say the 1st on theatre’s as a kid
Second one did more then twice the budget, I think, that is considered a success. I really like it too, it was fun. And it is a good movie for a reaction.
saw it in theaters on 4th july as a kid , still one of my fav blockbusters
Apollo 11 was the craft that landed Neil Armstrong on the moon in 1969. Apollo 13 was destined for the moon but never made it there. I watch both unfold on live tv.
Go to the moon?? Hell no!! One of the first things I learned was, If it wasn't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all.😂
Albert King Born under a bad sign.
‘Hell yes! Such a great movie. Happy 4th of July all Americans! Thumbs up all!
Happy 4th
@@DevinGtv901 Thank you, sir. I hope you were able to consume a bunch of grilled meats, adult beverages, and viewing of fireworks. I can't wait for your next upload.
Easily one of the top 5 motivational speeches in a movie
What speech? He don't show it.
@@Trofnoker I’ve watched this movie many times and it always comes to mind.im sure you could find it on CZcams
@@joshy9464 I don't care, is the best part of the movie and he don't show anything, dislike for his video.
Id put the "My Name Maximus Decimus Meridius" in that same top 5
@@TrofnokerI think some parts get auto-cut for copyright unfortunately
In regards to the President going out to fight after his wife's death, there's one thing you have to take into account: He is a father. A loving parent will fight tooth and nail for their child. It's why Russell pulled the sacrifice (because if he didn't, then all of humanity, including his own kids, would be wiped out). Yes, he lost his wife, but in the grander scheme of things, he did it to protect his daughter and humanity in order for there to be a future with the human race there.
They needed all the pilots they could get to win.
As the saying goes "The best soldiers don't fight because they hate what's in front of them. They fight because they love what's behind them."
Happy USA Independence Day from Canada 🇨🇦 ❤ 🇺🇸
Happy independence day to you too
@@DevinGtv901Canada Day was Monday, but thanks!
@@Natalija_Saar How many people died fighting for Liberty there? Not sure there is an equivalence.
you can wish us happy dependence day if you want, its ok
Happy late Canda Day. Now, do you have any milk?
You Didn't react to the
Greatest speech in film History??
He’s lacks too many brain cells to even watch film without being stupid.
That was really strange. It's one of my favorite parts to the movie. Such a feel good moment.
We Will NoT GO QUIETLY INTO THE NlGHT
youtuve probably wears a strap-on on that one
almost like the guy is a clown
Did you really cut Bill Pullman's speech out?! wtf?
Lol that’s what I was waiting for . Cmon dev lol
He cut a lot of the best scenes..smh...
Pilots are constantly flying through clouds & weather they can’t see in, fairly normal but usually there aren’t giant fireballs to run into in the middle of the sky
HELLL YEAH! HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!
Happy Independence Day!!
Man I remember the first time I saw the trailer for this in the theatre. It was a movie I had always dreamt about especially with updated special effects. American fighter jets vs UFOs. And since there was not much of an internet back then, I recall nervously listening to my radio to get first impressions from movie goers who went to it on opening night lol.
Seeing this in the big screen on the 4th of July weekend was epic! Everyone in the theater was pumped. It was like being in a sporting event. Chants of 🇺🇸 and I heard a lady say "this what a black man can do" with pride. And the president's speach brought the house down.
I can't believe you didn't put in one of the greatest speeches in cinematic history!! You're the only one so far. Unbelievable!
This movie is a classic
I can see why
When Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum are flying out of the mother ship, Jeff Goldblum says "Must go faster, Must go faster".. The very same thing he says when the T-Rex is chasing him in the Jeep in Jurassic Park.
Happy Independence Day to you Devin and all my American brothers and sisters.
Happy Independance Day to you too.
Apollo 13 was after the first moon landing. They wanted to land on the moon, but because of so many disasters on board, they changed the plans. Their goal changed to simply getting those astronauts home alive..
The misfire when he got in the craft caused the jam sealing Russell's fate
It was Apollo 11. “The Eagle has Landed”. Checkout all the cool space stuff we did at “Kennedy Space Center”, Cocoa Beach Fl. And take the day tour out to the launch pads. There’s a whole Saturn 5 rocket suspended from the ceiling. Most of all have fun…..it’s worth the trip. Cheers
Your energy is infectious. Love your videos brotha!
you cut out the speech? :(
It was Apollo 11 that first landed on the moon. Apollo 13 launched (I think) the next year in 1970. Happy 4th!!!
Yes, 11 was c. Aug. of '69 as I was home from college and could watch it on tv. No. 13 happened just at tax day ~April 15, and at school, I didn't have a tv so I was mostly unaware of what was going on.
Happy 4th!
Happy 4th all cheers 🍻
Happy 4th to you as well
No speech! 🤦
Awesome reaction and watched this so many on VHS, the iconic scene where the aliens first attack terrified me as a kid.
And, I first saw this on 📀.
No, the “satellite” ships were mentioned in the movie as being 13 miles across. The “mothership” was mentioned as being approximately 500 miles across. The aliens place their satellite ships above major population centers……
Hey Devin, been a fan for a long time. Hope new channel is going well. Have really enjoyed the content lately and really excited to have your reaction to ID4 on this July 4th. Thanks dude, and thanks for your service!
Happy Birthday to The BEST COUNTRY ON THE PLANET!!!! Happy 4th of July folks. THANK a veteran for fighting for your freedom. Many gave some many gave all to protect the best flag on earth!!!!!
Sandlot is dope too! It was my fav childhood movie! U gotta do that one also
I still get pumped and teary from this movie! I especially love the dynamic between Jeff Goldblum's character with Will Smith and Judd Hirsch (his "dad"). All 3 are comedians so a lot of their banter was improvised. Brilliant, thanks for this. I hope you and yours had a Happy safe holiday. 🇺🇸🎆
The President's speech gets me EVERY time I watch it
the thought of a young fit president is insane lol
Hehe, right?! Haven't had one of those in our lifetime.
7:21 😂 I drive Flatbed trucks and this is trucking 101 don’t matter if it’s raining, snowing, fog ect if you can’t see “SLOW DOWN” or just don’t drive.
I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched this movie with my dad, another great reaction to an awesome movie!
2:30 - No. This was from Apollo 11 (which in 2019 had actual footage upscaled and made into a movie, I highly recommend watching it, for the actual historical value if nothing else). Apollo 13 was a few years later. That movie was a Hollywood version, though pretty historically accurate (for the most part). Also, the Apollo 11 moon landing is in fact my earliest memory. I was 2 1/2 years old, and remember watching it on television because everyone in my family kept telling me just how historic it was. While I didn't understand at the time how historic it was, I would later on in life. Also, and I'll say this because it's July 4... I hear that the flag we left there has most likely been bleached white by the sun.... so now everyone will think France went there if they can't read the plaque. (that's a 'France always surrenders' joke, if you didn't get it)
Also, Devin, if you want to see a more modern take on the alien invasion.... check out the movie "Battleship". While technically based on the game, it IS a fun watch.
One of the best experiences at the movie theater when this was initially released. Top notch.
I'm Gen-X. Anything even remotely seems fishy, I'm on my way to the most rural coastline or mountainous region depending on circumstances. The go bag, the vehicle, the gear is all ready lol. Fishing poles...let's hope the fish aren't radioactive.
I love this movie and watch it every 4th of July when I’m off. But the most emotional part of the movie where I can’t hold back the tears is when his wife dies. When she says “liar”. Every-time. 😭
1. Hiller is a USMC Captain he knows his holiday off is over. That's why he didn't even have to wait to be called in. Jasmine should know that.
2. In the theater I was in the people in there actually stood up and cheered when the White House and the Capitol Building blew up.
3. In my top 10 reasons out of thousands to NOT live in a Metropolis. Getting the hell out.
4. Major Michell/Adam Baldwin also played Animal Mother in "Full Metal Jacket".
5. "90 billion light years"? The Milky Way is only 100,000 light years wide.🧐(The more you know)
6. Movie magic: A convenient traffic tunnel exit.
7. Hiller FAIL parashoot jump.🥺😱
8. Plot hole: The aliens want our natural recourses but are destroying them along with the people.
How does leveling our cities equate to logging forests & stripmining minerals? They can retrieve our processed metals from the rubble, & stripmine the entire planet.
Loved the reaction Happy independence day even though you kicked our butts out we Brits still love y'all ❤ 🇬🇧🇺🇲
😂
please react to these comedies:
1. Mars Attack (weird aliens) and
2. galaxy quest (real aliens ask a bunch actors for help because of their t.v show)
Love your reactions.
Alien: imma use your satellites for a signal
Government: imma use satellites for communication
Aliens: you know I'm still here right?
I miss movies like this, has it's action, drama, comedy. Sure it can be cheesy but it's FUN. I don't know if we'll get movies like this again because of how hollywood is nowadays, most of these writers and directors are up their own asses that get hired now. It used to be you'd get a lot of movies like this every year.
There's a reason I live in the middle of nowhere.
Nobody is wasting a big ass weapon, on like 30 people.
Russell Casse You will never be forgotten ❤ Happy 4 july guys 🇺🇲
This is in my top 10 favorite movies of all time! Great reaction Devin!!❤❤🎉🎉🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
Yes I was 14 years old.... seeing this in a big screen theater on opening day...nostalgic
The Patriot is a great movie too for independence day.
Awesome Movie and Work Bro, Thanks!!!😎👍👍👍👍 Greetings from Helsinki, Finland🇫🇮🇺🇸🇫🇮🇺🇸
Happy 4th of July! ❤🤍💙
Happy 4th, big dawg.
Happy 4th bro
Happy 4th Brother!!!
Great reaction. ID4 is the perfect summer popcorn blockbuster! Classic.
The extended edition makes the movie even better.
Esta película inspiró a toda mi generación. Creo que para ustedes es tan tan americana. First time I coment to you react, "maa". But saw you since LOTR & other. Cheers, from Monterrey Mex
I'm not well versed in editing and avoiding copyright etc, but is it possible to alter the sound cutting out so abruptly every few seconds and instead have a more gentle raising and lowering volume? Not complaining I love all your reactions, it's just a bit distracting 😅
Nothing better than watching *Independence Day* and then drunkenly blowing 💩 up on the 4th!! Love the reaction as usual.
Why didn’t the satellite at the beginning that crashed into the spaceship at 4.29 not hit the protective shield instead? 😂😂
Maybe they didn't turn it on since miniscule things in space aren't usually explosive warheads.
For fun you should checkout a movie called “Yankee Doodle Dandy” starring James Cagney. Yea it’s old but very patriotic. It’s about the life of George M Cohan, a musical director/actor/dancer/song writer and Broadway producer. Lot’s of song you probably know but didn’t know who wrote them.. He won the Congressional Medal of Honor for his work. Cheers
43:27
Yes by going in from the rear.😉🙃
Fun wordplay joke there.
Apollo 11. Each ship was 15 miles across. They all fit onto the mother ship. Normally, Id agree with you about the Prez risking it, but the Earth was going to be totally destroyed with all life as well, so ultimately, it was do or die.
I love it how u always add some new to it.
Keep it up fam 💪🏻
There is an episode of the Fresh Prince of Bel Air where Evander Holyfield was on it. It was a Christmas Episode. Holyfield came over after an argument he had with Will about Chrismas Lights. They had to put Will in an Oversized Shirt to look smaller because when he was next to Holyfield they were about the Same Size with Body Type. They were like we can't have Will looking like he matches up with the Champ.
Great vid! Happy 4th of July from Norway Devin!!
Nowdays A Classic! Congrats and thank you.
One of my favorite movies from my childhood!
What gets me about the drunk dude is even after aliens are confirmed people wanna think he's crazy for saying he was abducted.
The music is so good
Happy 4th Devon.
I first saw this opening day in downtown Burbank CA! 🎉
When the News castor said “Los Angelenos please do not fire your guns at the spaceship…” everyone cheered so loud you could hear it from outer space!
🔫🫡😂🇺🇸
Bro how did you not watch this when it first came out??? Ive looked at most of your reactions im really surprised how many movies you havnt watched You must have grown up without tv or movies in your childhood
Thank you for watching this movie, subscribed
4:28 - this constant "sound playing - then silence" is really annoying. Kinda like if you are driving and constantly pressing gas and brake pedal. You can either muffle or modify sound or just turn it off until music stops.
I most certainly wouldn’t go to outer space given the opportunity. There are places on earth I would rather see
Death by traffic jam, so real
100% agree w u about the president being selfish by going on the mission. He was the only parent left for his daughter. I haven’t heard anyone else say that.
Keep in mind there was only a handful of real experience fighters left and none of them were commanders. They needed a leader in those skies and he was the only person capable of doing it. If he doesn't go then the mission will fail and they all die so there is no point in staying for your daughter when your all going to die if you don't go.
I really like Jeff goldblum's character in the movie and the way he portrays him
A heartwarming story about how nothing, and I mean nothing, gets in-between a Marine and his stripper...
Happy 4th ,bro.I'm staying home trying to get to feeling better.but that,imo,is one of the best movies of a all time
Happy 4th of July! Great reaction!
Yaasss! Just a great, over-the-top, feel-good movie. I love Will Smith & Jeff Goldblum's chemistry. And Bill Pullman plays a great President; Love his speech. Happy 4th July (love from the UK 🤭)! -x-
The perfect 4th of July movie. Hope you are doing well my friend.
Usa usa usa 🎉🎉🎉🎉 plz react to the sandlot 🙏
Thanks for watching
To answer your question. You have seen Apollo 13. Therefore you know that Neil and Buzz were on Apollo 11. 2 launches earlier.
Nobody talks about Apollo 12. 11 was the historic landing. 13 was the problems that caused us to rally together.
So real talk....What happened with Apollo 12? What did they even do?
The aliens were loud and clear with their response to the light show
I agree the noise those things make I really don't blame them
10:28 I love the moxy on this kid.
You intend to watch a Schwarzenegger movie soon, please watch "Running Man". But until then, I wish a happy July 4th.
