Goodness, is every big summer movie being taken out back and shot?! FOXX Fund Jun 04, 15:09

This just means a film or two is going to totally exceed expectations and be a surprise hit {nm} numbersix_99 Jun 04, 15:13

I'm liking IDAY2 too sleepyleon Jun 04, 15:50

My concern with IDAY2 is what, if any, effect WSMIT not being back will have. shadowking Jun 04, 16:07

I can't see nay effect. That was 20 years ago. {nm} GruntNoNeck Jun 04, 16:09

This is precisely what I said to Snob last night. I'm just not excited for it because of Liam replacing Will. lobogotti Jun 04, 16:39

What gives me pause, is that early indicators like the initial trailer view counts and Superbowl Spot were soft notfabio Jun 04, 16:57

I actually watched Independence Day 2 around a month ago (some general thoughts inside) reelreptile Jun 04, 17:07

I think your last line might be the most important - many alien invasion movies but no dinosaur movies {nm} JDolphin Jun 04, 21:05

The SyFy channel has had a bunch I think but nothing I can remember. =P {nm} Baron_Darcon Jun 05, 07:51

interesting indeed. {nm} lobogotti Jun 04, 18:28

The top billing last time was the CG effects, which were not quite the great leap forward of "Jurassic Park," but were pretty amazing. second gary Jun 04, 17:06

Agree the special effects were the star back then. I shouted HOLY SH...! During the Baron_Darcon Jun 04, 22:27

"Earthquake" was a big deal in the 1970s, and I loved to watch "When Worlds Collide" when I was a kid. second gary Jun 05, 06:12

The bigger concern is the 20 year gap. That's been a bad gamble for too many recent sequels. {nm} leo21 Jun 04, 17:34

Tron Legacy was a big hit, only reason sequel was put on hold was Disney is spoiled for product right now. {nm} austpow Jun 05, 07:21

The original MBFGW was such an unusual phenomenon, too; its sequel was differently successful, I think, and it has a 3+ multiplier. {nm} second gary Jun 05, 09:58

DIE4 was the best performing Die Hard movie, and that was after a 12 year gap {nm} warcraft86 Jun 05, 10:59

6 yrs later, the 5th movie only made half as much {nm} JDolphin Jun 05, 11:21

Terminator was only a six year gap and had massive quality issues. Barbershop 3 was a successful little programmer {nm} Moviesnob Jun 05, 11:12

There's something in the air... {nm} MattW Jun 04, 16:12

Your boy The SEETVFund will never miss an opportunity to pimp Miami Vice. Link... to the best video ever...inside. SEETVFund Jun 05, 01:18

I was out on ID4 when they didn't bring back Egg {nm} djgrimlok Jun 04, 20:52

Her? {mm} {nm} bennyg1985 Jun 05, 06:22

It was as ann as the nose on Plain's face they were never going to cast her {nm} RogerMore Jun 05, 09:31

I'm thinking there will be 2-3 late June/July big hits TwoMisfits Jun 05, 13:29

anecdotal, but haven't spoken to even one person who's hyped for IDAY2 CG63 Jun 09, 11:13
