America FUCK YEAH
Jul. 5th, 2008 09:52 amI don't care how fakely bombastic and wankilishiously ridiculous Independance Day is, the fact that I got to see it again, at midnight on July 4th? AWESOME.
The movie gains unexpected hilarity post 911, especially since okay, Whitmore fucked up in the beginning but when push came to shove he gathered his balls, galvanaized a handful of scared pilots, got his ass in a plane, and flew in with the rest of them. I seriously doubt if the aliens attacked Bush would do the same thing, even if he WERE qualified to fly an F16... proving once again that the only good presidents exist in movies. *sigh* And then there's the fact that FRIKKEN EVERYONE IS IN THIS MOVIE. President Rosslin was only the first lady in this movie (making her, amusingly enough, far more successful than Hillary). Data. Jayne. JAYNE, I tell you! Even that big bearded arab guy that is currently being terrorist du jour in all the movies now was in it for ten seconds. (he was in Iron man. Yeah, that guy.) The little girl playing the president's daughter now voices Katara in Avatar. *flail* *squee* yeah. EVERYONE.
So yeah. A good time was had by all. And I now have a Hancock visor, except I peeled the first three letters off it. It is awesome now.
