Independence Day was a good watch but the whole interfacing with the alien computer an uploading a virus just ruined it for me.

If the aliens were using human satellites to converse (in binary if I remember correctly) then clearly our computers worked on a similar premise. You could also assume Jeff Goldbloom's character was aided by the scientists studying the smaller ship in order to figure out how to interface with the mothership.

He obviously just installed alien_mothership.lib and statically linked it along with putting alien_members.h in his compiler's header folder and just read the documentation finding the function void destroy_self(). Duh..

Independence Day is about the equivalent of Transformers imo.
