On this day in 1996, Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum, along with our armed forces, successfully repelled an alien invasion that could have wiped our very existence off this Earth. It's amazing to believe it's been 19 years already, but not a day goes by that I don't think about it.

[[Uh... it’s a science fiction movie.]]

Denier!

Pay no attention...Alien laser beams do melt steel.

Yea, NYC, Los Angeles, and San Fran are still here.

Did we fight the Mexicans off or something?

[Dilbert San Diego]

Did that movie have the obligatory homosexual character?

Americans coming together to fight an invasion.

An invasion from without would be one thing. We are invaded from within.

The movie was trash. The President was Bill Clinton at the time. When Pres. Bush (43) came along, the movies were fantasies about his assassination.

Our real enemies are space aliens -- not illegal aliens; machines not Muslims; and capitalism not Communism. That is the message of the movies today.

I too have not been to a theater since Independence Day was released. Between the ridiculous prices, the deafening soundtracks, the mannerless patrons, and the general crappiness of the movies shown, I doubt I’ll ever enter a movie theater again.

I bet you believe the Mars landing was fake too...Hmmmm?

"Apparently benign alien emissaries show mankind how to end the misery of war, plague and famine. The Kanamits, nine-foot tall aliens, arrive on Earth with one lofty goal: To Serve Man. They end war, they end famine. They make the military wonder: what's the catch?"

Yes. Jeff Goldblum’s co-worker. He was smooshed by a flying firetruck.

“What? I always thought it was a documentary.”

Actually, it was. Then the fedzilla got a hold of it and edited it a bit, then hit us all with the mind wipe ray beams, then re-released the edited movie version of events.

That wasn’t the first time this was done, either.

No one remembers the mag 9 earthquake that caused all the people that weren’t tied down to be flung all the way to the west coast. But, they remember Grapes of Wrath story that the fedzilla had produced to explain why so may people wheren’t where they were used to being at, once they woke up from the memory zap rays.

I’ll,go back to the theatre when they kill the 40 minutes of crappy, loud, non-stop ads before the show starts and replace them with a Bugs Bunny cartoon.
