Roland Emmerich and the Art of Escalating Nonsense

Disaster movies are nothing new. Earthquakes have rumbled cinematic cities apart while asteroids and their collision courses wreak havoc on the entire planet. But one director has become synonymous with the global disaster epic, Roland Emmerich. With Moonfall in theaters, it’s time to look back at a career spent toppling national monuments and obliterating iconic landmarks and what’s made him so successful at it. It’s time to look at Roland Emmerich and the Art of Escalating Nonsense. From his first big Hollywood film pitting Jean Claude Van Damme against Dolph Lundgren as two cryogenically frozen super soldiers in Universal Soldier, to Kurt Russell and James Spader traversing the universe in Stargate, Roland Emmerich’s had a knack for taking a bonkers premise and mining it for all it’s worth. While Independence Day with Jeff Goldblum, Will Smith and Bill Pullman was his first blockbuster, films like 2012 with John Cusack and Chiwetel Ejiofor or The Day After Tomorrow with Dennis Quaid and Jake Gyllenhaal cemented his place on the Mt. Rushmore of disaster movie makers. This batch of nonsense was written and edited by Clint Gage. Graphics by Casey Redmon. For more director deep dives, subscribe to CineFix - IGN Movies and TV.
