it we love good foreshadowing if this isn't an insanely beautiful woman i'm hanging out i think you should listen to this no man a radio signal from another world let's let's yes sir radar reception has been impaired we estimate that it has a diameter of over 550 kilometers meteor no sir how do you know well sir it's slowing down get me the secretary of defense hello hi it's me that was a smooth transition i have a confession to make i'm sleeping next to a beautiful young brunette you didn't let her stay up all night watching tv did you morning george morning mr president mr president they're not attacking your policies they're attacking your age age was never an issue when you stuck to your guns it's just too much politics it's too much compromise you can tolerate a little compromise if you're actually managing to get something accomplished this is the secretary of defense could you say that again whoa hey jeff goldblum well have you think already idea how long it takes for those cops to decompose listen david i've been meaning to talk with you it's nice that you see me so much now but i'm only saying it's been what four years you're still wearing a wedding band three four you're divorced come on move on this is not healthy no this is not healthy the smoking is is not healthy checkmate wait a minute wait a minute he is not riding his bike in the office david what's the big emergency it started this morning every station's making like it's the 1950s snow all kinds of distortions nobody knows did you uh try to switch transponder channels we tried that it didn't work it's almost as though they weren't even there i like the setup so far we have almost three different stories and characters that we're following that we get to see from their point of view what's going on wow this guy is out here having the time of his life just so casually lands on the road lucas's farm's on the other side of town [Music] wow are you sure not him flying while under the influence oh flying saucers these aliens ain't playing they said get in position boys our official position is we have no official position fine give us the information somebody say something what if it doesn't pass us by let's retarget some icbms to blow it out of the sky luckily the press is making up their own story at this point commanders and troops that are in town for the fourth of july parade go ahead our intelligence tells us the object has settled into a stationary order part of it is broken off into nearly three dozen other pieces yet over 15 miles and with themselves they should be entering our atmosphere within the next 25 minutes 25 minutes the aliens aren't playing please tell me we're getting somewhere all right what's the bad news bad news isn't your meal penalty for disturbing my lunch and the good news you're not going to charge so i found the problem it's not our equipment there's some kind of weird signal embedded in the satellite feed as soon as i find the exact binary sequence then i can calculate the phase reversal with that analyzer i bought you for your birthday and applied yes yes yes oh this looked like the end of the wall sir we're looking at a total radar blackout over a 13 kilometer area that's insane austin give me atlantic command on the line correction sir we now have two confirmed mr president they're tracking another one of are incredible widespread panic has gripped the countryside as thousands have taken to the street eta with contact 0.3 minutes thirty minutes side radar doesn't scare you wow that's so crazy how they can't see it at all wow there's no way mine's gone sir two more have been spotted over the atlantic one's moving toward new york the other's headed this direction i strongly recommend we move you to a secure location immediately connie we have to maintain a working government i don't want to add to a public hysteria that's going to cost lives we'll advise people not to panic the best idea right now is to stay in their homes in a situation like this i don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing really so we'll see how it's going to play out towards new york and washington okay those are your two biggest cities i heard you had a little trouble this morning probably still a little confused from your hostage experience seems yours background boy he was kidnapped by aliens did all kind of experiments on me man y'all leave russ alone see this is actually terrifying could you imagine you just woke up and then boom but the sky is money looking [Music] i'm crying because they're sleep and they don't even know what's going on the poor little boy is more than no oh abe oh david don't end up dying man now all these cars had ample amount of time to stop all the brakes oh not over the white house and he talked about yeah i want to stay here you're sure about that are you sure address the nation and say what what we got flying saucers everybody just calm down calm down you want to impress me you need to get a job not telling adult to get a job and also we're introducing on yet another character jasmine neighbors moving out because they finally got tired of all these quick this is just the first 20 minutes of the movie and i feel like i know all of the characters that they introduce they've done such a good job at fleshing out these characters so far oh you shooting aliens right oh you think you're tough all right like he ain't look up or like read the news something he just still don't know he's so clueless oh another smooth transition i know i just try and stay calm why would happen don't argue with me just go talk to me hear me tell you that the signal hidden in the satellite field is slowly recycling down to extinction oh the alien's saying 10. it's like when the timing's right you strike they position themselves all over the world approximately six hours the signal's gonna disappear and the countdown's gonna be over six hours i gotta call my brother i better call my housekeeper he's trying to save everybody in his family many of us feel a sense of hesitation or even fear he he's your husband what do you want no oh my gosh oh my gosh i'm a sucker for when things connect and this movie is already blowing my mind they're communicating with a hidden signal they're gonna attack paranoia the embedding's very subtle it's probably been overlooked if oh oh i gotta go back and dissect this the script is everything it's everything right now feel compelled to leave these cities please do so in an orderly fashion like did you really expect the american people to be calm in this situation bruh we got aliens on earth uh-uh come on now you can't go you got to call them back look why are you acting like this why that's why she do have a point you know really don't think they flew 90 billion light years to come down and start a fight report to el toro find out what's going on wow you take care of yourself here you and dylan come stay with me on the face you will see that there is nothing to be scared of not as charming as you think you are sir yes i am chicken the television said they started diluting already really want you out of los angeles you're staying there to keep people calm it's the right thing to do i'm not going to let them criticize you for it i'll leave as soon as the interviews are done she worried about doing interviews right now can't this thing go any faster well you think they don't know what you know they know believe me they know they don't work i don't know oh oh you're gonna educate them huh yeah so tell me something

go any faster all right all right i don't want to argue i don't want to argue let's just get there huh you think we'll get to washington it won't be there i was genuine ten years ago they did all kinds of experiments on me post-traumatic stress syndrome from his service as a pilot in vietnam the aliens abused him wasn't that the one who was making fun of him come on boy we're leaving without

on five aliens have stormed the earth david i don't know how happy he's gonna be to see you yeah that's right i'm telling you we're wasting time he's not gonna listen to me we should go because last time i saw him we uh we got into a fight you walked in the room and punched him in the head he wasn't the president then i punched him and he fought back we wrestled around as if that makes it better david thought that i was having an affair with the president which of course i wasn't hey hey or we should head back to the car all right i'll get them right here wasting time we're closing in and what do you all plan to do you know what famous people have been here politicians baseball players singers and now me imagine that look his dad is really funny three stalkers are steadily approaching what has been you now get to the choppa i don't have time for this two minutes connie president uh david is like he wouldn't listen to him let's go can you say you're right you're done david tell them i know why we have satellite disruption we couldn't send a direct signal right you need satellites to relay that signal in order to reach each ship i found a signal hidden inside our own satellite system we're using our own satellites against us clock is ticking i would not be getting anywhere near that thing welcome wagon how's coming welcome wagon hello aliens call them back immediately see i wouldn't be the one i wouldn't be the one and why y'all still there why this may be some type of response echo one we are evacuating the white house his wife is moving too slow for me she ain't gonna make it and these people up here on this rooftop trying to get in contact with the aliens that don't make no sense talking about take me away see this ain't what y'all want y'all gonna be the first ones to be zapped okay i don't even know what they doing it's just one minute oh what did that mean your best move [Music] oh i didn't want to see him die wow the radius at which the explosion is expanding is enormous wow wow and it's still going it's ricocheting yeah that's what i'm saying i need to go go go go go wow no point of running and i'm always for escaping but i don't know people she's not trying to grab the bags it's not important right now poor boomer did boomer get out of the car now jasmine i'ma need you to stop looking back the dog buma the dog it's always the dog the titles are so dramatic wow that's a big big symbolism right there to see the statue of liberty underwater it's like independence question mark independence i've been saying it there's ain't i've been saying it miguel no it's not the time they're black people are dead bro ain't not been saying it and i tell y'all hold on for the kill y'all we're gonna be all right troy leave me alone he trying to help you all he's trying to do is help like where do you go what do you do at this point the aliens have come to attack what more can we do you're scared man no like i'm wondering if is even worried about jasmine and his son right now get your chance good on him let's go hey and we're in jets yes yes yes yes you got your victory dance yeah let's do it i'm ready let's go jimmy and steve i'm so proud of the boys black knights will emerge victorious once again this is beautiful we are going in for attack wait they have a force field aren't getting through no sir not one man but i love it when the jets you know ah they have a thick force field nothing is getting through let's have some kind of protective shield over there all night i wouldn't even be flying that close oh oh oh oh no no no they got little fighter jets of their own or fighter saucers they got lasers they are unequally matched there's like 12 fighter jets and 300 saucers there's no way y'all gonna win i think we're gonna have to make a run for this one here let's get low let's get fast jimmy man it's just steve and jimmy left stupid over there you know me you know me jimmy [Music] no that hurt jimmy was cool oh they coming to the face the aliens are relentless why like you're about to make me cry i'm so hurt fuel low see if you can fly that thing undercover that was a pretty smooth technique but is there an alien side of the saucer oh oh i really felt like his legs or his kneecap should have went through good he hit the ground pretty is it the kneecap should have been out of the out [Music] i'm letting all your friends out right i would not be stepping near this the spaceship because that's what i'm saying what if there's something inside of that that's worse than aliens what are you talking about i think my heart is racing that's what i call a close encounter the movie is doing too much to me please back we can go forward we can go side to side and is he air safety [Music] yeah there's still love there i think love was never a problem they agree we must launch a counter-offensive with a full nuclear strike sacrifice more innocent american civilians is that right sir if we don't strike soon there may not be much of an america left to defend you've taken out norad what it's gone sir what do you mean it's gone when you waited to evacuate the cities no no you're not gonna launch nuclear weapons you're gonna kill them and us at the same time if you hear what they're talking about don't even think about it i don't have to go it can't be allowed captain get him out of here don't tell him i'm totally unprepared for this ah don't give me unprepared that thing that you found in new mexico a thing that's found in new mexico david i don't know area 51 right area 51. you know dan sir sir please regardless of what no area 51. there's no recovered spaceship that's not entirely accurate which part yeah hold on everybody oh wow she is saving people i'ma start handing out mvp stickers to the characters in these movies because we got some real strong fighters you know julius out here jasmine you know oh the president first lady she survived this was supposed to be my weekend off got me out here dragging your dreadlocks sticking out the back of my passion you gotta come down here hacking all big and bad the smell [Music] it's just the weight what is that no like what is that oh it's the rvs boy i got scared this is a beautiful white desert the location scout did their thing need a little soldier come on i love it i love it you're telling me everything is intertwined all the characters is coming together i love this i love this so much welcome to area 51. oh snap follow me i'm sorry sir it's clean room i have to keep it nation the door right don't worry about the inn boy open the doors stop playing two words mr president plausible deniability wow y'all even kept the president in the dark what are they working on because if y'all did know about the aliens that's creepy funding for something like this twenty thousand dollars on a hammer thirty thousand dollars on a toilet seat ah this what a pleasure this is uh as you can imagine they they don't let us out much i should like to see the big tamale huh wait is this a freshly captured one or one y'all had because if y'all did know about aliens then that's messed up from the repairs we've been trying to put her back together since the late 1960s don't tell me you've had this see we can't duplicate their type of power so we've never been able to experiment all the little gizmos inside turned on i don't think that's a good thing 24 hours have been really exciting people are dying out there i don't think exciting is a word i'd choose to describe it tell us anything useful about them oh yeah yeah yeah yeah breathes oxygen comparable tolerances to heat cold you guys want to see them see who is it alive freak show please tell me that it's not alive wow wow wow they were wearing uh some sort of biomechanical suits eyes ears no vocal cords we're assuming they communicate with each other through some other means can they be killed no their bodies are just as frail as ours and these two died in the crash you unlocked part of that technology oh no no all i did was stumble under their um signal i don't know how uh helpful i can be figure out what they haven't thought of yet we'll see if you're as smart as we all hope you are almost felt like a backhanded compliment so thank you the rv community pull it up captain steven hill united states marine corps i can't let you pass without clearance okay you want to see my clearance let him pass let them pass let them pass but that alien looks different from the aliens that they have in incubation so it's either they're not the same aliens or these aliens are evolving what do these patterns are repeating sequentially just like their countdown signal using that frequency for computer communications really starting to make us look bad he's a cable man but he has such a high degree he should be working here right here we got him in the back of the pickup how long has it been unconscious about three hours unconscious so it's not dead he's very sick he needs immediate attention listen to russell write down don't do something about it right now my son will die when were you planning on informing the rest of us had been deemed classified there was no way that we could have known that our fighters would have been that ineffective against their attackers that makes me wonder because in our world everybody knows about area fishing one but at what point did that become public information at first they knew exactly where and how to hit us we're looking at the worldwide destruction of every major city in the next 36 hours 36 hours what do the aliens want with the humans i'm really anxious to get back to el toro el toro has been completely destroyed i'm surprised that this truck has lasted this long on gas you only run out of fuel don't move i get it for you stay still i didn't know that you'd recognized me well i didn't want to say nothing come on come on come on let's get this bomb here right along the ridge microprobe look it's unconscious very very gently i feel like the alien can wake up at any time you know what i'm finished i'm finished i'm finished if i get another jump scare from the same alien see his hands is moving i told y'all what did i tell y'all oh i get it now this exterior was fake that was just his armor oh now we got one inside of the camp oh why is he moving like that oh and he's a smart one too oh why is he so tall oh see i knew it was too easy to be it's too good to be true man not an alien is in the area 51 alive he gonna call the mothership he gonna call the mothership i just know dr oaken he ain't gonna respond bro i just can't open the door get him out of there no wait oh it's all funny looking it's like in a fake alien exterior release me no now there is much we can learn from each other if we can negotiate trying to negotiate with an alien a way to coexist mr alienate being peaceful telling the people to die what are your guns going to do exactly i still don't trust the alien i don't think the alien is there after they've consumed every natural resource they move on these little aliens is evil newcomb mr president i thought he was against new king but the end of the world he didn't come to this decision lightly he left me for him i wanted my life to make a difference i wanted my life to mean something dangerous david you could have done anything that you wanted research development trying to be part of something special oh but that wasn't enough was it also i'd like to add on i really enjoyed the blocking of this movie there was so much tension in this scene through their words yes but also through movement launch code confirmed alpha zulu six eight niner standing by this presence if you wish to deploy the time is now deployed i hope it works do not rejoice just yet target was destroyed yes sir roger that we're looking for confirmation yeah it looks like the city was destroyed not the alien spaceship see this is clown energy y'all destroy nothing why is my ringer on call so we shouldn't just give up on this i said call them back it doesn't make sense to keep through our nukes if the nukes ain't nukin how did he know exactly where she was we can't stop the bleeding if we can no the doctors think that you're gonna be just here [Music] oh our little environmentalists don't do this to yourself listen to me are you listening to me you still have your health i'm not david david you need your rest come on get off this freezing concrete floor before you catch a cold come on that's what you're concerned about him catching a cold i don't want you to catch cold [Music] what you have a pistol what you got a gun some coke can on top of the alien crack i think you can shoot that thing on [Music] was protected by the craft's shield we can't penetrate their defenses we know that already what's your point right and we got to get around them major one more time computer virus you can send out a signal that will disable all their shields that's right just like they used our satellites against us if we plant a virus into that mother ship it's gonna then filter down into all the corresponding ships below okay i'm sorry how exactly do we infect the mothership yeah with this virus and fly their alien craft out of our atmosphere and dock with it we can enter here uh as shown in upload the virus we then set off some kind of uh explosion which will disable it and that could buy it i think at least some time to uh take them like theoretically it sounds good you want us to coordinate a massive worldwide counter strike with a window of only a few minutes you don't have the manpower or the resources to launch that kind of a campaign that this whole cockamamie plan is dependent on a machine that no one in this world is qualified to operate i've seen these things in action and i'm well aware of their maneuvering capabilities dear permission general i'd like the opportunity to try okay stephen that thing you are upset he is still talking excuse for making another fatality somebody got to kick him out i've ever made was to a little weasel like you secretary of defense i don't think you understand however there's one mistake i am thankful to say that i don't have to live with you're fired wow they want to organize a counter-offensive combat ready divisions in europe the middle east and asia exploration what we're planning at this time is the launch power however with our depleted manpower we're asking that anyone with any flight experience come forward this is time to shine i'm flying but not under the influence i'm pilot ever since i was kidnapped by aliens 10 years ago i have been dying for some payback i won't let you down why you can't show someone else how to how to plant the virus someone who is trained oh no who knows hey you know how i'm like i'm always trying to save the planet you're late i know you like to make a big entrance i just want to say i'm sorry sorry for what babe i should have done this a long time ago do you have the ring oh witnesses oh well let's get [Music] gathered here in the sight of god presence of these witnesses join this man and this woman in holy matrimony please speak now or forever hold your peace steve will you take this woman to be your wedded wife and love her comfort her forsaking i'm crying on the inside that was way too sweet man i need all flight crews to report to their designated areas immediately aircraft from here will join others from around the world and you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind mankind that word should have new meaning for all of us today we will be united in our common interests and you will once again be fighting for our freedom but from annihilation the fourth of july will no longer be known as an american holiday but as the day when the world declared in one voice we will not go quietly into the night today we celebrate our independence day that was so beautiful like i want to go out and fight some aliens such a good speech man i belong in the air wow mr president you sure about this you know as soon as i get back we're gonna light those fireworks right you better come back stephen i'm very proud of you this whole movie please careful okay it's time wait a minute wait a minute wait wait we gotta find some cigars i know i see [Music] was foreign to kill everybody [Laughter] shaky huh make sure your seat backs and tray tables are in their upright and locked position this is not giving me confidence into going oops right what does that mean what do you mean you say we try that one again huh yes yes yes yes that way that's like a roller coaster just leave her alone i think our secret's out the head is straight for us oh oh yeah i forgot david does get air sick i was counting on this they are bringing us in exactly i was like if the mother ship sees one of her ships won't she like talk to it or something we're about to work on our communication we have visual do not engage until we've confirmed the package has been delivered all right mr president being out on the field oh man this facility is buried deep in the mountain should provide us some protection what about the people outside he's like what about the people outside [Laughter] and what if y'all get trapped in there i i understand the plan but i don't agree with the plan and he said they got 30 seconds to get out i mean look at this place oh this is stupid they can see us and smart smart yeah you better get a tic-tac if i could just hack them to the mainframe i don't know why uploads always take forever in movies the package is being delivered the package is being delivered they should have done that from the jump i don't know why they didn't think about making sure everybody was underground oh the alien's gonna be like what's going on let's go let's go yeah this is it okay okay what a force field still up disengage i want another shutting sir i strongly recommend you disengage come on i might have to give the mvp card to this guy yeah yeah yeah you better just fire and keep firing totally forgot that aliens who's gonna pop out right right right right bob's done let's go home gladly okay but how y'all gonna easily get out of there like that's what i was gonna say ain't no way aliens ain't gonna let you go it's not responding it's [ __ ] no try again why would y'all have people still outside to begin with y'all have the space to contain the people not me they're overriding the system the aliens said who up in there hold hands i'm not jewish nobody's perfect oh my gosh he said i'm not jewish nobody's perfect oh if they blow that uh their primary weapon it won't explode you can't disable it now yeah like right now okay that tickled the thing it didn't even do nothing to it all missiles have been fired all missiles gone sorry i'm late mr president russell oh that was mr i didn't even recognize this that was mr president this whole time okay he was getting it done sir just keep those guys off me for a few more seconds will ya box two what do you mean it's jammed girl if you don't launch now is not the time for jam and peanut butter it's not the time do me a favor russell please don't children i love them very much russell good luck buddy i'm back oh but miguel let me go what your father did was very brave should be proud of him [Music] this movie is about to happen your channel we know how to take them out general spread the word oh this is the really bad part it's the the sub sub subplot checkmate oh no boys wow it's funny i always thought that things like these would kill me it's been a pleasure steve you too only one thing left to do hey waving at the alien number nothing but love for you he said oh oh wow drive us out of here right they're chasing us oh really you think all right we're not here we're learning here oh she's closing the doors [Music] their chemistry ah that's gonna be a lot of debris coming on earth but at least we're saved from the aliens look at the boys look at the boys yes sir going down all over the world we got them beat we lost contact with the hitler levinson nearly 20 minutes ago hold on sir i got something on radar oh it looks so good good job thank you well done captain dude not bad it's nothing the feud is over oh so this is healthy happy fourth of july daddy didn't i promise your fireworks oh and that that almost looks like fireworks that was one of the greatest movies i've ever experienced in my life i felt everything i i'm really baffled that the fact that this movie was able to carry 4k four different narratives by four different characters you had mr president you had stephen you had david and then you had russell i cared about each and every character's backstory and that is hard to do even when you have one character's narrative that you're expounding on in a film everybody felt fleshed out i knew the characters from the tiny little details to when we first saw david playing chess with his father and then his estranged wife connie in their relationship and then seeing stephen and jasmine the turmoil and in their relationship and and mr president and how people have been viewing him as he's getting too old to be president to to serve they were all dealing with these different things nobody believed that russell really encountered aliens and he was this lunatic like ex-veteran it was so much packed into this one movie at times it wasn't even about the aliens they did a wonderful job creating suspense we barely saw the aliens yet we felt fearful like they felt like a true threat to all mankind i just love the overarching theme it's not even just about independence but we as humans are coming together to to defeat this one thing that's coming up against us and we actually broke down all these barriers and walls to to come together bad i just the film side of things this movie had a campy aspect to it with those bold gray title sequences and the white flashes appearing every now and then it didn't feel out of place because it was consistent throughout the whole movie it felt like an authentic choice and it worked in the film and it was a large and grandiose sci-fi action film it's everything that you would want in a sci-fi movie and the characters were smart they weren't out here making crazy decisions that didn't feel truthful they were i loved the characters everybody had chemistry i loved this movie and in the independence day just independence day i'm gonna put this at the top of all like all the out of all the movies i've ever reacted on the channel this one really touched my heart and there was towards the end the third act had so many moments where i was i was like cheering up i felt connected and invested with these characters like i want to watch it again it's so good it's so good thank you so much for watching this video don't forget to like subscribe follow me on
