This ~~Fourth of July~~ twenty-fourth of June, Earth reclaims its Independence for the second time.

We're only a couple weeks out from Independence Day: Resurgence where we'll get a chance to witness Jeff Goldblum, Bill Pullman, Liam Hemsworth, and Jessie Usher battle an entire race of aliens hellbent on destroying everything Earth holds dear, especially our monuments. The Roland Emmerich-directed film will of course play in IMAX theaters worldwide and to commemorate the occasion, IMAX has released a very neat new poster for the film incorporating Earth's impending doom with a ragtag group of heroic soldiers showing no quarter.

Check out the new poster below:

Plus, here are a pair of new banners:

We always knew they were coming back. After INDEPENDENCE DAY redefined the event movie genre, the next epic chapter delivers global catastrophe on an unimaginable scale. Using recovered alien technology, the nations of Earth have collaborated on an immense defense program to protect the planet. But nothing can prepare us for the aliens’ advanced and unprecedented force. Only the ingenuity of a few brave men and women can bring our world back from the brink of extinction.

This movie is gonna suck

Attack of the giant butt hole.

Clark4President - 6/2/2016, 10:33 AM

@Spider2YBanana - that's something I can get behind.

Kman - 6/2/2016, 11:08 AM

@Clark4President -

I've always like alien invasion movies. I like the whole Humans v aliens concept.

Kman - 6/2/2016, 11:07 AM

@marvelstudios - in reality though... we'd likely be annihilated very quickly

marvelstudios - 6/2/2016, 11:14 AM

@Kman - In reality, humans haven't come in contact with bacteria in outer space let alone sentient alien beings.

Also, I never got why people always assumed if we came in contact with aliens, that we would be the technologically inferior species.

Kman - 6/2/2016, 11:23 AM

@marvelstudios - Well I mean they're traveling millions of lightyears through space or time or wormholes or things we couldn't even comprehend yet. So if they made it to Earth, it's pretty much a guarantee they would be so farther advanced than us that we would most likely not stand a chance. We can't even reach Mars with astronauts yet. So that's a pretty logical conclusion. And based on our human history with each other, the outcome of a visit from other beings has a high percentage of being bad for us.

Kman - 6/2/2016, 11:24 AM

@marvelstudios - To be fair, "Come in contact" and being visited would be two entirely different things.

marvelstudios - 6/2/2016, 11:28 AM

@Kman - Assuming they have the capability to do everything you said.

Kman - 6/2/2016, 11:37 AM

@marvelstudios - Well I don't think they would be able to visit Earth without those capabilities... It's not exactly simple

marvelstudios - 6/2/2016, 11:51 AM

@Kman - Who said they have to visit Earth to make contact?

Could be, in the distant future, humans are capable of travelling further into space. Contact could be made then. Provided what you said, doesn't happen first.

Kman - 6/2/2016, 12:00 PM

@marvelstudios - well that's why I said above earlier... "making contact" and them "visiting Earth" are two very different things. I'm only speaking on the "visiting Earth" scenario.

Why hasnt anyone Done an article about the new BvS trailer ?!

CaptainAmerica31 - 6/2/2016, 10:44 AM

They didn't cast Jayden Smith as Will Smith's son in this movie so good on them

AT3374 - 6/2/2016, 10:46 AM

@CaptainAmerica31 - That would have been the logical choice

incredibleTalk - 6/2/2016, 10:49 AM

@CaptainAmerica31 - ....he'd be more of an advocate for the aliens though!!!

Kman - 6/2/2016, 11:06 AM

@CaptainAmerica31 - He'd probably boycott the "We Saved The World Again" awards ceremony

BIGBMH - 6/2/2016, 10:59 AM

They're going with this whole "we always knew they'd be back" angle but was that idea even mentioned in the original movie?
