Super Bowl Spot: Independence Day: Resurgence

This is sort of a big one. I said to someone recently that one of the single biggest cinematic experiences I’d ever sat through was Independence Day. So after only 20 years we’re getting a sequel and damnit, here’s the first trailer. It sounds potentially amazing… old E.T. got his ass kicked in the ‘War of 1996’ then sent a distress signal. Now the cavalry is coming and that just begs the question, what kind of force are they going to send to get medieval?

Check out the new Super Bowl trailer and info below.
