    im probably way more interested in this movie than i should be

    that trailer looked a lot better than i was expecting though

    i like the idea that aliens held out in the congo for a decade before being wiped out it could make for an interesting side story if they do some tie in media and i really hope the humor from the first one isnt completely gone although a lot of that came from having will smith at his absolute peak, so yeah

    Maybe I'm the odd one here but Will Smith not being in the movie is not that big of a deal to me. ? he going to do be a general hopping back in a fighter plane again? Some new blood taking the reigns is not a bad thing also he turned down a lot of money for this movie so ? him lol.

    Is it true he wanted over 40 mil and a role for jaden as well?

    It was "his" movie like it was Goldblum's and Pullman's. Just because it was his breakout role doesn't negate the fact that it was an ensemble piece.

    Irrelevant point. This wasn't an argument I was trying to make. Foh

    Am I the only one who thinks including Will in any type of way even a cameo woulda doubled the box office takings even higher than it would with this current film? Just for nostalgic reasons?

    $50 million? OK. Big deal (Robert Downey Jr. anyone? Even Arnold collected 30 milli for Terminator 3 and that was over a decade ago. But it's a problem for a Black man huh?) How much do they think they'd have recouped having him there with some of the original cast?



    Will's star power is still on the high notwithstanding After Earth (everyone falls short sometimes). Anyway we got Suicide Squad and Bad Boys III coming up ..

    Maybe internationally but American audiences don't give a ? about Will Smith like that anymore. Besides that 50 million they saved I'm sure went into the effects budget which is never a bad thing for a movie like this.

    Its not gonna be the same without Will, but they definitely have my attention based off nostalgia alone. Im surprised Will wouldnt take less. He hasnt had a smash in awhile.


    Too little too late and it will be trash,but the original was overrated and I never got the hype

    Bingo! Of course studios recoup more internationally with blockbusters like this than Stateside. Will's high grossing films have always done well globally against the US


    Anyways i'mma pass on this ..

    Actually they don't. The international box office pie is split so many ways that it doesn't even come close to giving studios a portion of what they really invested.

    The only time Studios really profit from a movie at the box office is during the domestic opening weekend which is where they get their most royalty points. Which is why such an emphasis is always put on that point of a movie's lifeline.

    Can't believe y'all bashing Will without looking at the dozen other ? movies Roland Emerich directed after independence day. That director sucks and Will basically made that movie off his name. Will knows that Roland is a ? director that even did that ? movie with the white Egyptians called 10,000 B.C. I would do the same thing if I knew I was working with a ? director. Will would not do that if it was Antoine Fuqua or Martin Scorcese and he knows this movie will hurt his credibility. Vivica A. Fox is 190 lbs and washed up. Then the dude is bringing all these old has beens out of retirement for a quick check and nostalgia value to get killed off and replaced with Liam Helmsworth and the ? from Survivor's remorse. This will be another Battle Los Angeles movie where the characters lack personality but a whole lot of lackluster explosions and cgi aliens.

    My bad, just venting.
