I saw a video of @pattonoswalt.bsky.social today listing INDEPENDENCE DAY as a bad sci-fi movie that could be fixed with one line of dialogue. Now, I love INDEPENDENCE DAY. But he wasn’t wrong. The whole “uploading the virus” bit is really stupid, but they could have fixed it easily!

I look at that the same way I regard the “we’ll need a Quantum Mechanic” line in FORBIDDEN PLANET. A writer thought it sounded science-y enough and moved on without a further thought. Doesn’t bother me though.

That's totally true and I don't think I have cared about how utterly stupid it is once, I just laugh and move on😂

(The one line being that we used the alien tech we found at Area 51 to create computers, cell phone technology, so our systems were actually far more compatible so that a computer virus dismantling their systems would be plausible.)
