Every Independence Day we watch the 1996 classic movie Independence Day. It’s about an alien invasion a couple of days before America celebrates its Independence Day. The call of humanity to fight back makes the American celebration a more universal occasion. It celebrates 30 years, which is remarkable that I have seen this movie 30 times. The movie visually and technologically holds up well. The storytelling is what makes it timeless. It’s an all-star cast that makes it so special.
If you know, you know. It just means more symbolically right now. This is from the holiday favorite “Independence Day” where aliens blow lots of stuff up, including much of Washington DC.
It’s that time again to blow the hell out of the White House and other places. Also, Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum save the world. Watching “Independence Day” is a great 4th of July tradition.
It’s independence day and I’m a professional wrestling fan so I am mixing the two and presenting The United States Heavyweight Championship Belt that was a title of the National Wrestling Alliance back in the day. Many great stars have worn this belt including The American Dream Dusty Rhodes. Have a great day and remember that freedom should be for everyone.
My American Independence Day reflection in one image. This is what America should be working to achieve. Freedom isn’t free and should be for everyone.
In recognition of what America should be, A land made for you and me.
