OT: Contact
I am watching Contact for the, I dunno times.
I wish they had done a sequel. I think it was a tastefully done movie, or maybe I am a Jodie Foster fan *shrug*

Re: OT: Contact
Yeah, the movie was pretty good. 
I have the book by Carl Sagan, but I never finished reading it. |

Re: OT: Contact
Its a very well done movie. I felt that they left themselves a lot of room for a sequel, but never got around to it. Maybe it wasn't a huge success, so a sequel never got made. Too bad.

Re: OT: Contact
I liked it, but it's a watch-once movie for me.

Re: OT: Contact
I thought it was one of the worst films I had ever numbed my arse for. That's just my opinion though.

Re: OT: Contact
Not the worst movie I've seen (see another thread for my votes on those), but definitely not the best, either. But my friends and I did have a good laugh out of one scene. As Ms. Foster is approaching the launch device, with an apprehensive look on her face, I cracked (in a deep Darth Vader voice, MST3K style) "And now, your Highness, we will discuss the location of your hidden rebel base."
Immediately, my roommate shot back, in a Yoda-voice...
"Overactor you are."
We had to rewind the tape for two minutes to catch up what we missed for rolling on the floor laughing. You just had to have been there.  |

Re: OT: Contact
I neither liked nor disliked. Not much action at the end, but I did like the proof of what she said happened.
