Independence Day Forever

No Will Smith, no Independence Day, as far as I'm concerned. The first film was a blast, but the last time a '90s pic got a late-to-the-party sequel, it was Dumb and Dumber To, and audiences had to seek PTSD counseling. Any fans of the original have surely moved on by now, so what makes Roland Emmerich think that anyone other than him would benefit from a follow-up? This seems as calculated a project as they get.
