Independence Day: Resurgence Does Wonders for New Mexico

The summer blockbuster spent a whopping 158 days filming on location in New Mexico,

Twenty years after the humans united to fight the invading aliens, with the help of computer virus uploaded by a nerdy genius David Levinson, played by Jeff Goldblum, the aliens have returned, and Jeff Goldblum has, too, in Independence Day; Resurgence. In an interview, Goldblum talked about returning to the role of David Levinson two decades after the first film. But any conversation with Goldblum is guaranteed to be wide-ranging and he asks at least as many questions as he answers,
New Independence Day: Resurgence Clip Features Fan Fave Dr. Okun
Another day, another Independence Day: Resurgence clip. This time, Independence Day fan favorite Brent Spiner is the featured player, showing off his powerful (we think) laser. Spiner fans love him for playing Data in Star Trek: The Next Generation and Dr. Brackish Okun in Independence Day. The only thing is, fans were certain that Dr. Okun bit the dust in the original film.
For the uninitiated,

So it's nice, on a Friday morning, to wake up to a little something like this; a David Levinson (Jeff Goldblum) v. Jeff Goldblum (who plays David Levinson) bit of silliness. For you Goldblum fans, this is going to be like manna from heaven. For those fo you eager to see Resurgence this June 24,
Deadly Dog Fighting in new Independence Day: Resurgence Clip
In Independence Day: Resurgence Jessie Usher plays Dylan Dubrow, the son of Stephen Hiller (Will Smith) and Jasmine Dubrow (Vivica A. Fox).

Pause the teaser at the 9 second mark in the teaser and you'll see her (we're assuming it's a her); a very nasty looking being that's a little like a cross between the Predator and the mean mother that Sigourney Weaver battles in the original
Independence Day: Resurgence Presents Hybrid Alien Technology
"Consumers now enjoy the benefits of innovations like the nano drone spy. It's tiny, it's real cute, but it's a naughty, naughty thing," says David Levinson (Jeff Goldblum), describing the hybrid technology, that is alien technology paired with human innovation, that people all over the world have enjoyed since the War of 96 left a whole bunch of alien spacecraft smoldering on the planet. These hybrid technologies also include the "quantum warp-core vacuum" that "sucks like a black hole."

Super Bowl 50: Independence Day: Resurgence Trailer
It was 20 years ago when Independence Day first blew up the White House in one of the most iconic Super Bowl spots of all time, so it was fitting, if predictable, that 20th Century Fox dropped Independence Day: Resurgence during last night's Super Bowl and once again destroyed much of America. The aliens are back in what appears to be an even more pissed off mood than the first time around.

Since the 1996, July 4th attack, the United Nations created the Earth Space Defense Program to serve as an early warning detection system in the case of another attack.
