If there's no Will Smith, then there's no-one to crack lines like "Now that's what I call a close encounter!"
Maybe cast Eddy Murphy in the role instead?
A sequel... period. :facepalm
That film is nearly unwatchable. I can't believe how much I thought it was "fun" back then.

I really liked it. The only thing that makes me cringe is when Will Smith says "Just like the AMRAAM launchpad on the stealth." :facepalm If you don't know, neither the B2 nor F117 have air to air missile capability, and the AMRAAM is air to air. Oh the Israeli F/A-18s bug the hell out of me too because they don't have any (only F15s and F16s). They did that because the USAF wouldn't cooperate.
I have no clue how they will do a sequel unless it's showing how the aliens attacked other planets.
ID4-2? Sure why not? There have been made sequels to far worse films. Gotta mention I really liked the soundtrack
Oh no you did not shoot that green CRAP at me!

Well, it makes sense that the sequel would take this long. The aliens had to wait until Steve Jobs was dead so as to make sure that there would be no defense against their new attacks!
Now that he's gone they can come and attack without fear.
(This is a joke, not a Steve Jobs attack......just a joke, I liked Steve Jobs and have some nifty Apple products of my own.)
Great, I bet they get his son instead, I bet he doesn't charge as much.
I hope the Cylons turn up....

Yeah, that and F/A-18s doing a straight vertical for, like, a mile up the alien beam. Anyone ever heard of stalling?
I agree if they rebuild the world into something cool but also arm themselves against each other it would be neat, or even to take the fight to the aliens. In theory all this alien tech could create one hell of a Cold War scenario like the missile race and the first to get back into space with the tech as i doubt everyone will have the same amount of alien relics in each nation. Plus you'd have a civilian blackmarket for it. This could make for a very dark movie. Or a crappy vehicle for will smith's son if they hire him instead of will.
