Independence Day

As I write this, I'm watching - for the umpteenth time - Independence Day. In my opinion, this is a sci-fi classic with some of the best cheesy dialoge in cinematic history (especially between Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum, and some great lines from Dennis Quaid).

The pep talk before the final battle given by Bill Pullman - albiet fictional - is one of the best Presidential speeches ever given, including Lincoln's Gettysburg address and FDR's speech to Congress asking for a declaration of war on Japan.

What can I say? As many times I've seen it, I just can't tear myself away when ID4 is on.
