Independence Day (1996)

 

One of my favorite science fiction movies of all time  and one I watch nearly every day on July 4. When aliens invade the world in July it is up to a group of survivors to defend our planet. It has World of the War vibes, but these aliens came a lot further away than Mars. Enjoy it this Fourth! There is sequel. It’s not really worth your time.

War in the Desert by Stephen Molstad

 

Taking place during and after the 1996 movie Independence Day this is the story of what was happening in the Middle East. United in common interests, the British, Muslims, and Jews must work together to defeat the aliens especially when they learn that the aliens are planning a ground invasion. It was a fun addition to the franchise.

Flight of the Navigator (1986)

 

In 1978, David Freeman is abducted by a sentient ship named “Max.” He unknowingly travels to a distant galaxy and although he doesn’t age a day, eight years have passed since he was abducted. David is brought to a government facility where they want to conduct experiments on him. Max in turn has managed to crash and erase his own memories on how to get home. Max lures David back because he implanted the coordinates to his own planet in David’s brain. Max and David both need to figure out how to get home. It’s a great movie.
