  1. Feb 7, 2022 · Despite only being released theatrically in Germany, Emmerich made Moon 44 in English with hopes that it would provide new opportunities in filmmaking. This low-budget sci-fi action film has a nonsensical and overstuffed storyline involving an undercover cop, convicts being used as cheap labor to mine resources from a moon, and an android threat, but it did lead to Emmerich being hired as the ...

    • Independence Day (1996) Independence Day is the gold standard for disaster movies, with one iconic scene of action after another. Whether it's the image of the UFO's shadow enclosing over New York, or the raging flames that descend through the streets as the aliens execute their attack, there are too many memorable moments to count.
    • The Patriot (2000) With The Patriot, Emmerich took a brief hiatus from the disaster genre to film a Revolutionary War epic. Gibson plays a war veteran living in colonial America whose family is torn apart by a brutal British commander, played by Jason Isaacs, against whom he vows to get revenge.
    • Stargate (1994) Gifted a budget of $55 million, more than double that of Universal Soldier, Stargate was Emmerich's biggest and most ambitious sci-fi film yet.
    • The Day After Tomorrow (2004) When you spawn a South Park episode, you have to be doing something right (or horribly wrong). Emmerich does more than a few things right in his 2004 blockbuster The Day After Tomorrow, which was one of pop culture's first attempts in tackling climate change.

    • Universal Soldier (1992) The first of many collaborations between Emmerich and writer-producer Dean Devlin was an early 90s movie that featured the biggest action movie stars of the day — Jean-Claude Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren.
    • White House Down (2013) Coincidentally released in the same year as the similarly-themed "Olympus Has Fallen," Emmerich's take on a president-rescue scenario pipped its rival at the box office, but has been largely forgotten since due to its lack of sequels.
    • Anonymous (2011) You'd be forgiven for thinking that both of Emmerich's forays into historical drama movies must be equally bad, but that couldn't be further from the truth.
  4. Moonfall: Directed by Roland Emmerich. With Halle Berry, Patrick Wilson, John Bradley, Charlie Plummer. A mysterious force knocks the moon from its orbit and sends it hurtling on a collision course toward earth.
