CLIP DESCRIPTION:
The President of the United States (Bill Pullman) gives a stirring speech to those going to fight the alien invasion.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
A group of intrepid humans attempts to save the Earth from vicious extraterrestrials in this extremely popular science-fiction adventure. Borrowing liberally from War of the Worlds, Aliens, and every sci-fi invasion film inbetween, director Roland Emmerich and producer and co-writer Dean Devlin present a visually slick, fast-paced adventure filled with expensive special effects and large-scale action sequences. The story begins with the approach of a series of massive spaceships, which many on Earth greet with open arms, looking forward to the first contact with alien life. Unfortunately, these extraterrestrials have not come in peace, and they unleash powerful weapons that destroy most of the world's major cities. Thrown into chaos, the survivors struggle to band together and put up a last-ditch resistance in order to save the human race. As this is a Hollywood film, this effort is led by a group of scrappy Americans, including a computer genius who had foreseen the alien's evil intent (Jeff Goldblum), a hot-shot jet pilot (Will Smith), and the President of the United States (Bill Pullman). While some critics objected to the film's lack of originality and lapses in logic, the combination of grand visual spectacle and crowd-pleasing storytelling proved irresistible to audiences, resulting in an international smash hit.

200 yrs from now when humanity is actually fighting aliens some general is gonna steal this speech but it will still sound badass
Maybe we will have to wait to find out
maybe but we are not going to be here for that moment, at least we found something weird in the space now
In 200 years. Everyone alive today are dead... Even the babies that are born right this moment...
I am Nat Life extension and medical technology advances mean the first person to live to a thousand was probably born a 4-5 years.
We know its chinese they are always good at it
When I was diagnosed with terminal cancer I listened to this over and over and over to pump me up and today I am cancer free!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats man! Words have power!
Conguralations man
Dang! That's great to hear! Glad you liked it. I also wrote the V for Vendetta, Braveheart, Here on Earth, Lord of the Rings, Armageddon, and Deep Impact speeches. I'm kind of a specialist.
"we are cancelling the apocalypse" live on good sir
F R E E D O M
All these years later and I still get chills when I hear this speech
you
Me too. It’s the best
Every time I get the chills bro if this guy was an actual president he’d get my vote just from this
This is one of the best movie scenes of all time.
But America is not the America we knew
This speech turns 30 in 2 years. And its still amazing.
I would gladly go into battle for this president.
Not for. With.
God damn this president would have won Vietnam
Fr
If only we had presidents like this!
If only presidents did talk like this. I would gladly fight with this man.
This is the most American movie that wasn't directed by an American. Ever.
...since Top Gun.
He also directed The Patriot with Mel Gibson.
We will not go silently into the night without awesome music and fire with beer
Rprince418 you do know Mel Gibson directed the patriot
God everytime I hear that name "The Patriot" I puke a little bit in my mouth.
"WE WILL NOT VANISH WITHOUT A FIGHT!"

We celebrate our independence day

khanacademy03 stfu for the first time in history America along with other countries are cutting ties with China. China is literally a disease infecting the world.
Tox1c definitely Chinese
You’ll never convince some people white supremacy isn’t a real and important.
We need this kind of patriotism for the world. There is a lot of good in humanity and we definitely need to preserve it and cherish it.
Yes, if there's some sort of major enemy for mankind itself, the nations must unite and fight against it
Basically something like this happened in WW2, the soviet union and the U.S, despite being really different from each other, united against a major problem, Germany.
And that union basically saved the world from years of obscurity and opression.
@@elchicogore9517 No one wants the war, its just a few dudes in powerful positions who have some wierd plans. Clearly they came from decisions the people (mostly) but i think, that almost no one on earth wants war

25 years later and I still get goosebumps listening to this speech.
Bro, I could be on my deathbed in 80 years time and this would still give me goosebumps
I always have the same feeling of goosebumps
I got waves of goosebumps

In the worst year of my life , this movie came out with the most inspiring, lifechanging speech I've ever heard.
In one of my classes, the professor asked "What do you think is the best speech given by an American President?" and one of the classmates said "President Whitmore's Independance Day Speech" and the whole classroom cheered! 🤣🤣
Lmaoooo 😂
funny i had a similiar story but it was speech professor asking for movie or tv speeches to add add to his class. He asked his classes for that. This speech and the President of Earth Alliance from Babylon 5 in the beginning movie Both still the chills.

"We will not vanish without a fight" has since become my life motto after that
Agreed
Jawohl
It is a motto we will all one day fail to live up to.
Totally agree!
@@aguynamedscott11 We'll all vanish, that much is true. A day will come for each of us where the last person who knew of us dies, and our name is uttered with us in mind for the very last time.
But that day need not come without a fight. We can ALWAYS fight.
"Do not go gentle into that good night; rage, rage against the dying of the light!"

Every 4th i listen to this speech. Best speech and president ever gave, fictional or real
What's more badass is not only did he give a badass speech he also went to war with his own soldiers, loved what he also said to the General "Im a combat pilot will,...I belong in the air" such a badass president
They needed every pilot they could get their hands on and if they lose this final battle...
He was a true leader
How do you feel that the nostalgia critic stinks its stupid at the president went to war with the soldiers in this movie?
@@CTladiesman I mean if the aliens won, him being a president or not doesn't matter, we all die 😂
@@exia7684 tell that to the nostalgia critic.
Fun fact: the cheers from the extras weren’t directed or scripted. Pullman gave such a fire performance to that well written fire speech, everyone was moved and cheered their hearts out! 🤌 This take was used in the movie.
That's why today we're talking about a legendary scene.
@@leszekhalama1173 Agreed 🤌⚡️
@@brummyuk2151 Wow! He’s amazing. I hope to work with him soon!
The cheers from the extras were absolutely scripted. Pullman has said they weren't even present when he was giving the actual speech. @brummyuk2151, yes it was absolutely scripted and Pullman did research on how he would deliver it, drawing from RFKs speech that he gave after the assassination of MLK.
@@brummyuk2151yes and no actually. It was a placeholder speech that wasn't meant to be in the final script. But Bill ended up memorizing it thinking it was the final cut. So they went with it.

“We will not go out quietly into the night” Goosebumps
That’s lifted from a poem.
This is arguably one of the best speeches in cinematic history
If that doesn’t get the juices flowing, I don’t know what will.

Right!
"They may take our lives, but they'll never take... OUR FREEDOM!!!"
@@jp3813 i see what you are doing there. Very nice.
*"We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight!"*
Chills man
The chills happened to everyone dude especially when your watching this speech 😅
Bill Pullman just owned this role. Anyone else could have phoned it in or made it extra cheesy but he took it seriously and for that I salute him
This is the greatest speech in movie history... period
When he says ‘we will not go quietly into the night’ always epic goosebumps and almost tears
My heart always swells when he says that part…
The "we will not go quietly into the night" part gives me chills
Did Dylan Thomas get a credit?
@@greenjedi8doubtful it wasn’t a direct quote it was an inspiration
Happy 4th of July!
LONG LIVE AMERICA!!!!🇺🇸 🇺🇲
I became an American on January 15 of 2020. And since then, I have made it my point to wake up on 4th of July and listen to this speech. This is the perfect way to set the mood for the day. And now, to celebrate the day.
Well said,my friend and countryman.
Welcome, fellow American! Glad to have you with us!
Late, but welcome to the USA🇺🇸
MURICA!
Did you watch it yesterday?
I sure did! We opened the bay window and played it super loud. The neighbors were all cheering.
i still love the little bit when he tries to speak, realizes he's holding the mic backwards, surreptitiously turns it around and starts again. such a small, subtle, human moment.
I legit never noticed that til now! I just thought the mic wasn't on!
I need him to run for president and give this exact same speech at every rally. Landslide victory.
Talk is cheap. He took action and fought alongside his fellow man on the front. THAT is a real leader and I would gladly fight alongside him.
We would all unite and rally behind a guy like Whitmore. The only problem is... there are no aliens attacking us. And there will never be.

That will happen if faced by greater threat.

Dig your last name, by the way.
It's mandatory to watch this every year around this time. "We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight!" Gets me every time.
We’re going to live on. We’re going to survive! TODAY WE CELEBRATE OUR INDEPENDENCE DAY!
Manly tears tho!!
I feel the exact same way @Juseman! I watch this movie about once to twice a year. And this speech gets me all emotional and proud to be an american! I would vote for this president again and again if possible!
My kids say the same thing every night before bedtime.
@@luisrichardo 🤣🤣🤣 This is hilarious!! Well played!! 🤣🤣🤣
Happy 4th of July, everyone!
Greetings from Bulgaria!
Chills still after almost 30 years later.
This film is SOOOOOO much better than the Resurgence. So much better.
A to the friggin men
But Resurgence did have its cool moments.
Master Penguin But this movie was cool from start to end
Of course it is. I'm just saying that Resurgence had its fair share of cool stuff.
You mean to tell me that a sequel isn't as good as the original?! What's next, you're gonna tell me that water is wet?!?
I would follow this President into the gates of Hell.
Like Doom?
I’d run through the gates of hell for this President
I am right behind you
😂😂😂
im with ya
Every July 4th, I Bingewatch this. Gives me goosebumps every time!
Happy Independence Day 2024
I'm a Canadian and this speech always makes me feel American. MURICA!
@@MM-eo2oz your being to kind lol
Well Canada is in North America so you kinda are
You’re more American than 45% of Americans. We call them Democrats.
Hail the North American Republic!!
In your opinion what spots would have the aliens landed over in Canada?
The thing that makes this speech even more epic is that the president promptly hops into a plane and valiantly follows his soldiers into battle. Leaders don't just inspire, they lead, and die right next to those they lead. They earn the right to inspire and lead.
not just follow too but as a flight lead in FRONT of the spearhead, I'll gladly follow hin into battle.
Hell yeah, a true leader doesn't sit by and watches but stands up and participates
I’d fallow this president anytime unlike the dementia ridden patient on a good day might say 2-3 sentences before he starts speaking nonsense and who is living in the most expensive nursing home with only one patient that America has now.
Well said!
While great for a movie, in real life a leader leading the charge into battle is a great way to lose- quickly.
The Indomitable Human Spirit
I know it’s just a movie…. But hearing this speech always brings tears to my eyes. Common bond: a love for your country and humanity itself, called to defend it and even sacrifice your lives for it. Awesome
Watching this on the 4th of july , never felt more patriotic.
I'm starting a new tradition of playing this scene every Fourth 🤣
Me too
Like a Scottish Drinker once said "USA, USA, USA!!"
@@Gyrfalcon312 I'm watching the whole movie on the 4th.
@@Ghost7065 every year I watch this movie, seeing it as (in my opinion) a very patriotic movie!
Absolutely one of the best movie speeches of all time, I remember seeing this in a jam packed theater for the first time and the entire place going bananas at that last line. People standing up and clapping, it was awesome. I wonder if we'll have moments like that again.
Maybe when C19 is gone forever.
We will. Trust your fellow humans. We will
This needs to be played in theatres again.
Saw the same thing in a theater near my home! People stood up and cheered, some wiping tears from their eyes, it was epic! Whoever wrote this speech was beyond a genius, because it inspired not only the screen cast, but the audience and Bill Pullman deserves kudos for delivering it with such a heartfelt emotion, you FELT THIS SPEECH! Absolutely spectacular!
Top Gun Maverick did it
Happy 4th of July
28 years later still get chills. Happy ID4 day
July 4 of 2019, I still post this speech in social media.
I did as well!
Me too. Every year.
Same here, always worthy to do every year, to look back on this amazing piece of film.
ME TOO!!!
It's better than the one from the other Prez, whose faker than a Hollywood Prez.
"Mr. president I'd sure like to know what you're doing? I'm a combat pilot Will, I belong in the air".
Please return safely Mr president.
Lead from the front
@@JK-gm6kk It was kind of an inspiring moment really.
Am fixing to watch this movie tonight for the first time with a powered subwoofer. So stoked for al the booms
The President used to be a Marine pilot. That and he knew they needed every single able-bodied person that can fly a plane to be up in the air.
That's the ultimate noble trait of a leader. To set aside your status and privilege and contribute when the time calls for it.
It's the 4th of July.
And Today We Celebrate OUR INDEPENDENCE DAY

He'd be re-elected for life.
Well... if this actually happened they'd probably temporarily suspend the 22nd amendment since most infrastructure and massive amount of the population has been eradicated. They would need continued leadership to rebuild.
If they kept re electing new presidents during this period, all plans would keep going north, then south, then east, and then in to a wild loose cannon.
So while it may not be for life, President whitmore would probably have more than two terms.
Nick Riddle I agree. I started thinking a lot about it when there was talk of a sequel. My opinion, he should have remained president indefinitely until normal life was semi-restored. That or maybe tack whatever time was left onto the end of his presidency to get him to the 10 year limit.
Kevin Pennell Fair points, except the sequel implied that his encounter with the alien in the lab progressively drove him mad. So he probably served as president until his sanity began to degrade, at which point, he quietly retired with his dignity intact.
@@heatchills4093 I'm excluding the sequel. Haven't seen it yet but figure the events consumed him.
How we watch as in a few decades his character becomes the worlds first sentient AI and becomes ruler of the planet, and no one cares, because we all want to follow him anyway

July 4th, 2023: Many things have changed since the start of this tradition, I'm now living my own life away from home and my parents, but luckily I have been able to come back this 4th of July to celebrate with my dad and once again witness this glorious piece of cinema.

It's not really corny. It's badass!
The charm of Independence Day
@@Theleaver5088 nah, it's the powa son
True that!! It IS a pretty cheesy and cliche “we’re all in this together” speech, but it’s the good kind of cheese that everyone likes to eat:)
Things like this are only cheesy/corny if a movie tells us of their struggles without showing it. This movie showed the struggle and loss endured by alot of characters that we followed which led to this defining moment. Lots of movies miss on this detail but ID4 didn't. Making the moment impactful instead of shallow.
During COVID I was working in the ER and this movie was playing and most of the staff got together when this speech came on and we felt more motivated to help our patients. We felt we were fighting a battle we were going to loose but we never gave up and this speech brought up our moral!

No matter how many times I see this scene, I still get teary-eyed.
Me too

Every time
Me too
I get chills
In 96 when this came out and I saw it on the big screen it was the greatest thing ever. 25 years later as the movie has aged this speech is a fine wine. Inspirational at its max
I can only imagine the cheers that erupted inside that cinema
@@XG417 unfortunately no one was aware of how awesome this was at that the time.
@@XG417 Saw it on opening night, my first date coincidentally. You are right, the cinema erupted at both this scene and when they were able to make contact through the shield for the first time.

It’s a movie, and it’s hokey. But love this speech - listened to it dozens of times, and it still gives me goosebumps
Do not go quietly into that good night, Rage! Rage! Against the dying of the light... still one of the best poems to rip off a bit. Second only to If and Invictus... at least to my not too extensive purview of the genera. Tell the truth but tell it slant by Emily Dickinson is also a fav
When he says “…and once again you will be fighting for our freedom…” the music, the words everything just gave me goosebumps
Still the best movie speech of all time.
It is great but , Hamlet, Glen Garry Glenn Ross , Braveheart and Network you should watch.
@@RandolphJohnson yeah i already watch all those movie speech,but this one is better
I do like me some "Braveheart." Especially when Jensen Ackles is like, 'hey I get a chance to say it!'

@@mosalah8551 judging by your profile pic, I never expected a GTU reference here
We need a President like this more than ever
I wish for Bill Pullman to run for President.
Yes we sure do. I'm sure a lot of us have been watching this clip lately because of that.
The hilarious thing is, what President Whitmore's approval rating is in the movie (before the aliens arrived) was crashing well below what President Trump's rating is currently.
Andy Howard President Whitmore’s approval rating dropped below 40% before the attack
Joey Weber the alien attack was planned to boost his ratings LOL
Happy Fourth of July!

The sad part was how they all turned their backs on him in the 2nd movie. Fucking disgraceful that new generation was. Dude was a real patriot.
I would too
Lets go!
He doesn’t have Instagram
awg98 LOL OKEEEEY....
What made this better is the president was out there fighting with us!! Instead of sitting in some secure location. Talk about leading by example!!... Manly tears come down my face.
The man did say he was a combat pilot from the Gulf War. :D
Victor Doanvo wish we had a president like that...
@@dogpd3 yeah, a brave president even after years of not fighting.
Before the invasion, he was considered a lousy president with low approval ratings - being a combat pilot and not an administrator, it made sense he wasn't doing well behind the Resolute Desk. But when a combat crisis hits, he has an opportunity to get back into his normal terrain, even when the generals tried to restrain him.
Leadership lesson? Lead from the position you are strongest. If you're an administrator, stay behind your desk. If you're a speaker, give speeches. If you're a field operator, take the front line.
@@dogpd3 The one real life incumbent president to fight in a war was James Madison, who manned a cannon during the War of 1812.
TODAY WE CELEBRATE OUR INDEPENDENCE DAY 🫡🇺🇸
Happy 4th Of July 🎆

Every Independence Day! Love this clip. 🇺🇸
I'm 13, and I watched this when I was 8 or 9. I remember watching it and feeling so inspired like I could do anything. As soon as I heard it I took index cards from my backpack and a multicolored pen from my room and wrote down the whole speech, word for word. I memorized it and recited it to every grown up I knew, they went bananas for it every time. I still have those flashcards. In fact I came to this video to re-write it so I can use it as a memo to get into the fall play. I wish more kids my age knew about this spectacular movie.
You should start watching the tv show The West Wing. You'll be even more inspired and you'll learn what a president is supposed to act like.
@@user-lq6uk2yn9m thanks lmao!
This movie is so cheesy, the characters so cartoony, and the lines so cliché, but I love this movie. This is my favorite scene- the speech is awesome, you've got F/A-18s (the same jets my Dad flew- he was actually working at MCAS El Toro when they were filming- got to see Will Smith and some of his coworkers got to be extras) in the background- perfection. Honestly one of the best movie speeches ever in my opinion.
The speech at the end off Courageous rivals it, in my opinion.
