Independance Day 2

There is a point at which "homage" becomes "theft." This movie crosses that line in the first ten minutes and runs like a thief the rest of the way.

Total crap.

what was this an homage to?

irishgit commented 33 days ago.
Nothing specific and everything in particular. Almost every significant scene, and most of the action sequences are "borrowed" from other films. Star Wars, Tora Tora Tora, Bridges of Toko-Ri, to name three.

Aaah, I see... and still it was awful. Well-played Emmereich. Can't wait to see him ruin Asimov in the upcoming adaptation of Foundation.

Oh God, is he doing that.... The Horror... The Horror....

The worst part is the Foundation project follows his latest film, 2012, which I'm pretty sure is straight up apocalypse-porn.

On second thought, maybe I just won't see it. Why ruin a good book?

I'll watch it when it's out and will report back ;)
