- I just put a ton of flims on my computer here is one of the scenes i really like in Battle LA where they are entering los angels this is show right at the beginning then a few minutes after so here it is.
Dislamer i do not own this movie it is owned by its righful owners
Honestly.. as a soldier, I would find a situation such as this, going into battle against an alien invader... less frightening... way I see it, they come to exterminate me, my loved ones, and our entire way of life completely, making that choice to fight and allowing me to find my courage much easier.
For me as a Marine it would be knowing for the first time 8 billion people are on the same page and we all about to woop some ass
This is pretty accurate. The enemy appears to have no air force. So the US Command are using the speed of their air power to move their ground forces quickly to the front before they can establish a beachhead, with air support. It's textbook. If you appear to have an advantage, you use it. An urban invasion of this scale is more about tactics than grand strategy. You don't deploy all your forces at once - so they're saving their jet fighters for when/if they actually need them.
"They're a ground force enemy only, they have no aircraft, so the Air Force will tear them a new asshole and we will rule the air!" Best line in this movie
Until their air support showed up. That sucked.
@@GC0077 Damn aliens. Bringing air support with them to support their oddly mechanical ground forces… it’s almost like the aliens (who are again, oddly, not much more advanced than us) realize they value of dominating the air. Damnit…
Is there a reason why none of these events alien species that come to invade us don’t just drop a specific pathogen into the atmosphere?
They could kill off all the humans while preserving the wildlife and the plant life, water, etc
No big dramatic war necessary…
the officer in that scean making that statment should have been reminded they are from outter space, not from earth, they arrived in space craft thus they do have air support!
@@GC0077 Even then US Air Force dominate the air, it just that part of US dominance is using Close air support (CAS) aircraft and helicopters. So more then half were either shotdown when Alien Air force went online or their support were limited.
the background talking in the helicopter scene is amazing. also have anybody else noticed that as the movie goes on the radio chatter is getting more and more infrequent untill it just suddenly stops?? gives me da creeps!
Im guessing you aware but as the movie pogress the squad figures they can dectect their radio signals to locate them, evryone else whenever they are they would had figure out so communications would had to be turn off to avoid dectetion until it was neccesary
If you paid attention and remembered, they didn't defeat the "whole alien invasion by themselves". They managed to get close enough to the command center to laze the target and call in a fire mission.
At the end of the movie, Los Angeles was still occupied. So were all of the other cities. Just because one CnC was destroyed doesn't mean the invaders in the other cities did step up their security in response. I don't mind if ya didn't like the movie...just make your criticisms more accurate :)
That Command Center were the one that enable the alien to control their aircraft/spacecraft, by neutralizing it, it gave US forces a breath to operate their Aircraft, helicopters and so on without worrying about anything else. At the beginning they were doing fine until Alien setup their Command Center which turn on their spacraft/aircraft hence the retreat.
We should have used nuclear weapons and real Fighter jets and not marine aviation. wheres the artillery Strikes Heading in? Wheres the Long ranged missiles Heading to alien craft? if aliens wanted waters of earth u.s military can show their naval capability with ease. ships go far away from alien craft as possible then blast them with missiles. and we should have nuked their command and control center. movie is straight down underestimated Military capability of humans. Aliens doesnt have Weapons hotter than the core of the sun But we have.
Shoot, idc what people say this was my favorite movie
THIS deserves a remake. A full scale war with real military tactics. This deserves a trilogy with our current advances in special effects, computer CGI, mechatronics and a clean script.
This intro for me IS THE COMPLETE MOVIE.
It actually deserves a sequel
My dad is a veteran and says despite this being a sci-fi it's actually one of the most accurate modern military movies ever made. The strategies, orders and tactics were just about correct.
No 😐
"Captain this is not a drill"
No kidding mr. obvious. Half the city is on fire...
Love the exchange with the captain at the end.
“You hold that line, do you understand me?”
That's what I love about this movie. The Military can actually kick so much ass as opposed to Superheroes stealing all the credits all the time. Something you don't normally see when it comes to the Modern-Day Military having to confront against unknown threats from another world which adds a lot of tensions to the plot and actually hurting them with current military assets.
I can't get over how epic the score in this scene is. Just...overwhelmingly atmospheric and inspirational at the same time.
One of the best soundtracks I've heard in a while. Brian Tyler did a damn good job on this
LOVED this movie!! made me want to go to the theaters over and over again when this came out!
I actually like this movie quite a bit for a few reasons. 1. The aliens aren't some super powered DBZ style killing machines. 2. The Marines I find easier to relate to than someone like Tom Cruise in War of the Worlds. 3. For once our military is doing something other than be used as target practice by the aliens! 4. It just feels more practical and like a type of alien invasion that could happen on some level.
But that's just me.
you better remember that the military in wotw was just delaying the advance, they were fighting with all they got, they were not target practice
Few things.
1) Military targets along the coast (naval bases, fleets, carriers, subs, etc) were more than likely the first to be taken out.
2) There were more than quite a few aircraft seen fighting them. Not sure about their drones but Aircraft do have to rearm and refuel. Just like the FOB, I'm thinking the drones targeted all of the air fields. So the remaining air assets had no choice but to pull back.
3) The units in the movie were the first responders stationed in the immediate area.
I love the little quiver of rage in his voice at 6:32 when he says "and you kill anything that is not human".
Starship Troopers: "We're going in on the first wave, leaves more bugs for us to kill...YOU SMASH THE ENTIRE AREA! YOU KILL ANYTHING THAT HAS MORE THAN TWO LEGS! YOU GET ME!?!? " "WE GET YOU SIR!!"
"Our mission lieutenant is to delay their advance until these civilians can get to safety."
Remember that? or not...
War of the words
Halo Reach New Alexandria vibes anyone?
A full auto weapon is extremely difficult to keep on target. In our own warfare, it's not uncommon for hundreds of bullets to be fired at a target before it's hit and killed. Plus, they did attack the Earth with a force around 30 million, according to the web site.
You nailed it.
As a former C9A2 gunner (upgraded M249 for you Americans who read this) it’s called a ‘cone of fire.’ The barrel of the weapon will naturally recoil in a circular pattern, with the damage effects more disbursed the further away your target is.
Machine guns aren’t notoriously inaccurate - but they do suppress the area in front of them due to volume of fire. Which is what they are supposed to do.
Anybody who isn’t behind cover will typically spring a few leaks, so it keeps the enemy pinned down while maneuver elements close with & destroy.
@@chrisburke624 Unless, the enemy is immune to suppressive fire
One wiki site said they had anti-ship mines that have "a 400' blast radius". Due to their attacks being very coordinated (and effective!) I presume the alien forces landing in places like san diego and hawaii, set their strategy up to destroy all of the ships and subs at the same time, before proceeding inland.
OMG, THANK YOU for posting this!!! My favorite scene(s) in the entire movie!! Now I can watch it repeatedly at work instead of bringing my DVD in. :-D lol
This is one of my favorite sci fi movies. Not sure why it gets so much hate
I LOVE this movie! One reason because it leans toward more of a war movie rather than sci-fi.
Well, those aliens seems to have a technologie pretty close from our own. Their weapons still have ammo. They are using water as fuel (we've started to develop technologies like this). They are using drones, so do we. They don't have "antigrav" technology. They don't have shields. So even for them, crossing the immensity of space is a real challenge. They almost crash-landed, they can't orbit.
Regarding the scale of the attack and since they are here for ressources, I guess they are desperate.
Lol any species that is able to máster interestelar travel would be infintely more advanced technology wise to humans 😂
@@johnnydoe9169 Not really as much as you think. They might have interstellar travel but it seems that it's not casual Star Wars or Star Trek style traveller, hell even FTL in Battletech seems to be a breeze compared to it in this film.
This means they had to travel light and use huge amounts of man power. They probably had to sacrifice heavy armor and other things just to make it. And as the OP said, they're desperate. This might be a one way trip for them.
Another aspect is just because a race built more advance tech does not mean the entire race is made of geniuses. There are island out there with people stuck in the stone age, the ships that sail passed them are literally thousands of years more advanced then are but most of the people who pilot and use them are not as smart as the people who designed the technology the ships is built out of. They still make mistakes, they still crash and sink, mistakes re still made when they're built. So even if these aliens were thousands of years more technologically advanced, it doesn't not actually make them as a whole smarter then us.
"You kill ANYTHING that's not human!" Great line.
А ведь это самый настоящий РАСИЗМ! Интересно будут ли придурки, которые будут пытаться решить конфликт миром? 🤔
this film hits so hard, so sad we have yet to see a sequel...
A fantastic beginning to a fun and wild movie! I know it has it issues but as a vet, this was a very cool movie to watch.
People said this movie got one star... I saw it on fx the other day and to tell you it was awesome.
Retreat!? Hell! - 2024 still love that line
The part left out in the movie is the sheer scale of the invasion, what is left out that this movie would in reality been one tiny battle out of one hell of a long planetary siege.
I didn't really care what people said about this movie; I went to go see it for aliens, explosions, and military speeches, and by God did it provide!
This one had the fewest inaccuracies so far, in a sci fi movie with the military as main characters. I had hoped a movie like this would be made after seeing war of the worlds and cloverfield done right.
Tactics, terminology, organization, fireteam roles, they certainly made an effort to be authentic. I would of left rodriguez's character out. In real life chances are she would of gotten herself killed on the freeway, I digress. Other scene's where the platoon made too much noise. Still good
"LCpl. Richard Guerrero: So what's your take on this, specs?
Cpl. Kevin Harris: I don't know, extraterrestrial?
Cpl. Lee Imlay: You mean like from space?
Cpl. Nick Stavrou: No Imlay, from Canada."
Ppl say what they want but I love this movie
this scene alone made the movie worth it
What did the Marines chant after being given the speech before they got into the helicopter?
This is an example of come together as one
4:26 welp there gos my CEO office
Hundreds of marines running towards war = awesomeness hoorah (god bless our troops who are now serving the military)
My favourite scene!!
I assume the nearest naval units were in San Diego and San Francisco. And they fell. LA was the last line of defense in the west coast.LA usually doesn't have more than a couple naval units stationed. So the assumption was that ET's landed their drop ships into them, just like they did to the ships that were off the coast of Santa Monica in that news broadcast, before the ET's infantry insertion.
True, and a amazing ending!
They were still ships none the less and they went out quickly. The alien forces attacking the pacific fleet (and anyone's fleet) could have made destroying all ships a priority objective while they would still have the element of surprise.
Well, in many Japanese films, most of the scene and events occur in Tokyo as well. Bollywood's most used setting is in India. If Russian/Chinese/Mexican were to make their own film, they would likely concentrate their story on their home soil as well.
I'm from non-USA country, and our entertainment industries treat our country as if it was the center of the world as well.
Тем не менее Лос-Анджелес является самым экономически развитым объектом планеты. И интересно наблюдать как его обороняют. Забавно что я совсем недавно думал что Лос-Анджелес это популярный небольшой туристический пляжный город, а оказалось что он круче и богаче Нью-Йорка...
Because Portland, Seattle and Vanouver are totally involved with the fighting in L.A. North America got plenty of mentions already. Defensive lines set up in Boston, lost contact with New York and San Fransisco. I think the general gist of things is pretty clear on the American front. Hell if you look closely you can see/hear how things are going in Shanghai, London, Rio de Janeiro, Germany, Ireland and the Bay of Bengal.
i love the Music
Good movie cia
Nants looking out the window seeing the tanks and humvees moving in to protect civilians and push the enemy back
The key to peace is sharing ideologies and economic interdependence.
Sitting people down isn't going to magically make peace.
We need to either make war obsolete or start a worldwide movement that will give the united peoples of earth a common idea to rally behind.
That's how you get the perfect world. Holding hands and singing is as effective as screaming into deaf ears.
Even if there is world peace, we're still going to need a military. (For obvious reasons.)
I'd love to see a sequel, either a direct sequel or another movie showing a different city.
"And you kill anything that is not human!" Good job Sheldon Cooper wasn't amongst them or that dog later on in the film would have had it's brains blown out :p
He said their objective was to delay the aliens until civilians could get to safety. Moving closer could tie up their advance and allow that to happen.
Like I said, the Earth has a vast amount of water which is easier to access and get a hold of than the water you would find in places where it can not exist in liquid form. The aliens appear to be aquatic creatures who wear semi-mechanical exoskeletons in order to walk and fight on land.
It kind of hurts me that this movie could have been SO much better, yet you can see the points where the director(or producer) decided to mess it up.
The only part was Michelle Rodriguez script like her movement and everything just didn't match everyone else. Everything else about the movie was on point.
Based on what facts from what actual, real-life, alien contact? :) Thanks for playing.
They may have received their orders at the same time but they would have been mobilised and readied at different times. Depending on the battle plan. It's possible the Marines were the last to be deployed and so were the last force that could make a difference.
honestly this was the best part, the rest of the movie was lackluster compared to this.
this movie is underrated sadly
look up civil defence siren on youtube and play it at the same time they are flying over the beaches in this video and i guarantee you guys that this will be epic.
The 1st Marine Division, 2nd I.D, and the 25th I.D. fall under NORTHCOM, so all three would have gotten their orders at the same time. So the 1st Marine Division still would not be the "last" offensive force on the West Coast.
independence day, skyline, battle: los angeles, battleship, war of the world they are excellent movies of aliens vs humans
It introduced Ground Combat, often ignored in these types of films at least.
What are you rambling about? Of course I "mention" the USA. The movie takes place there and it's called Battle: Los Angeles. LA is a city in the United States, in case geography escapes you.
No one is going to invade for water. They'll just start mining the asteroids and comets for oxygen and hydrogen and do it that way. Hell, some comets even have water on them.
they had small chopper like drones flying around aswell so not only ground forces :)
Needed more battle scenes involving the military and aliens
5:44 "The Air Force will tear them a new asshole" lol, this was said very smooth.
You couldn't have been SOBER when you wrote that. ;P
The idea that Los Angeles has the last real military presence on the West Coast, given that America has one of the biggest and best militaries in the world, is a chilling one.
Well, maybe the forces are far inland and takes time to mobolize
@NoName-xo3wy that is true, also lots of US military are deployed far away and needed time to travel, plus it is stated that the aliens landed in every major seaport cities. It highly likely that Whatever forces US has deployed off country, is being used to help allies defend their territory.
I had forgotten that. That was the year my sonic screwdriver was lost...
A good sized number are probably defending Hawaii. Traditionally, he how holds Hawaii holds the Pacific.
really hot movie ( :
i like this movie !
When it came to mechanized warfare they were not that well equipped.
But still their explosive shells seems 5x better then ours.
"For home, country and family"
great movie
Now you get the radios.
Then go and buy it from a DVD shop.
Just because one has the superior method of travel doesn't mean they have the superior weapons technology.
they're coming from space but they have no airforce? lol wut
Because this one story is based upon the city of Los Angeles.
That's pretty much the TV series "Falling Skies". Except of course a few people are left, and I rather think in reality those few remaining would also be wiped out too.
....their cybernetic make-up suggests they've evolved far beyond their environmental limitations back on their homeworld. Which means they'd be more adept at settling here. It's very clever, they've fused their own biology with machinery, presumably to shed whichever biological processes were deemed inefficient and substituted them with more durable and efficient machine processing. If life exists on other Earth like planets then I would think the things they'd need to survive are similar.
the scene where that ship gets blown to bits
They need to make a modern FPS about this. Ik they made one game (Which apparently was bad i think) but they gotta make a battlefield style game like this!
When watching this movie i sometimes wish i was there, fighting for the survival of human race is something i would devote my life to
I came across it hoping from video to video. You must never assume to much.
Warthog is a plane,A-10 Warthog,Thunderbolt II
As much as they went for accuracy, they completely screwed up with maintaining silence while on the move, in the neighborhood mainly. With all of the noise they made, they would of given away their position away even without the radio trackers. Still though for sci-fi this was much better than expected.
Bang on.
Because maybe combat aircraft never played a major part in their idea of war.
I always think that there are other species in the universe, i just hope that they are peacfull...if not, i pray that i am already dead when the time comes...
True. But without air support they would have eventually been thrown back, especially after we got used to them and their weapons/tactics.
Exactly
Perhaps they invaded because our water is in a liquid form and therefore easier to access. Perhaps there is something about Earth seawater's chemical composition that is special to them that can't be found in water in asteroids or on moons/worlds like Europa.
Pacific Fleet is in San Diego, so you'd be right. so they probably neutralized those before moving in on LA.
dont forget the begining when the ships were being hit by the dropships
No you don't. Because you'd be one of the guys leading the charge, General ;-).
Yet SOOO many people liked Iron Man 2 even though it only had 10 minutes of action when this film dosen't have that whole "They have sheilds" bullshit. You wanna know why I really like this film?
NOBODY WAS STUPID!
Retreat! Retreat hell!!! Semper fi devil dogs!!
I would like to see a sequel to this movie to see how they fight back to reclaim the planet from the aliens.
thanks this is great
