Welcome to earth! To commemorate the holiday, we're talking about INDEPENDENCE DAY, the film that reinvented the action blockbuster for the 90s, tilting the trend towards bombast, spectacle, and a whole lot of explosions. The 1996 Roland Emmerich classic helped launch the leading man career of Will Smith and featured cutting-edge special effects that showed that no monument is safe. We're digging into the flick before booting up the PS1 aerial combat game! 

Hosted by Steve Guntli, Jennifer "JBan" Bannister, and Justin Wilhelm
