Jay Movie Talk Ep.345 Independence Day- Blow Up the White House, Save The World
It's the summer of '96, and aliens have just declared war on Earth. In this explosive episode of Jay Movie Talk, I dive into the all-out spectacle that is Independence Day. From Will Smith's star-making performance to that Iconic Presidential speech, I break down why this movie still hits nearly 30 years later.
I talk about Roland Emmerich's blockbuster formula, Jeff Goldblum's tech genius, and why Randy Quaid might've low-key stolen the show. I also dig into the film's legacy, its influence on modern disaster flicks, and ask does it still holds up today?
So fire up your fighter jet, boot up that 1996 laptop, and join me as i relive the ultimate alien invasion flick
