 BATTLE of the SIMILAR FILMS 2 - Alien Invasion 1996 Battle 2 - Independence Day Vs. Mars Attacks! - both alien invasion pics were released in 1996.  ID4 was perhaps one of the most anticipated event films of the 90's while Mars Attacks! barely made a ripple despite the star cast and director. Tonally very different - which do you prefer?

Re: BATTLE of the SIMILAR FILMS 2 - Alien Invasion 1996 I want to say Mars Attacks, but it's been so long since I've seen it I can't vote for it.

Re: BATTLE of the SIMILAR FILMS 2 - Alien Invasion 1996 Yeah I really need to see both again. I barely remember Mars Attacks though.

Re: BATTLE of the SIMILAR FILMS 2 - Alien Invasion 1996 This is tough. I adore ID4 for essentially creating the modern blockbuster. But can’t vote against Mars Attacks, the best Tim Burton movie.

Re: BATTLE of the SIMILAR FILMS 2 - Alien Invasion 1996 I haven't seen any of them recently enough to feel confident in my opinion.

Re: BATTLE of the SIMILAR FILMS 2 - Alien Invasion 1996 When ID4-2 released I saw both of these and I prefer ID4 even though Mars Attacks is overall more fun

Re: BATTLE of the SIMILAR FILMS 2 - Alien Invasion 1996 Mars Attacks! is a fun film but ID4 is quite a monster.

Re: BATTLE of the SIMILAR FILMS 2 - Alien Invasion 1996 ID4 no contest. I don't think I've ever seen Mars Attacks though.

Re: BATTLE of the SIMILAR FILMS 2 - Alien Invasion 1996 ID4.
Haven't seen Mars Attacks since it came out.
Also, great thread idea.
