Roland Emmerich has a problem. A very gay problem. You may know Emmerich as the guy that directs ridiculous summer blockbusters where all sorts of landmarks get all sorts of blowed up.

What you might not know is the Emmerich himself is gay, a fact that’s only really been talked about for the last 10 years or so, and even then not so much.

Better than the last time. But for the most part, the Alien technology ruled.

Kiss my ass.
Perhaps some are more obsessed with finding homosexual imagery than others. Your secret shame doesn’t have to be. Love the sinner, not the sin, right?
It’s enough to make one root for the Aliens
I rooted openly for the aliens; I always root for the aliens in these movies...
Will Smith made me root for the aliens, just like Richard Dreyfuss made me root for the fish; juvenile performances do that to me...
Well, what is the point of Independence Day even having a sequel anyways? I never saw a reason why.
