Teegan did you know the misty is a remake of The Fog

Lukas

Holy crap it's right here. Thank you so much

Soopa

Love Jodi Foster in this movie! She does so much acting with just her eyes alone!

Julian Ortiz

I have a suggestion if you decide to remove the mist or the fog ,since you're watching star wars how about a little comedy a flim of Fanboys 2009

“For Carl” meaning Carl Sagan. He died before the movie came out, and wrote the book that this movie is based on. It’s his only fiction book.

“For Carl” refers to Carl Sagan. He was a famous Cosmologist (not to be confused with cosmetologist 😄) that wrote the novel Contact He was also host of the ground breaking PBS documentary series “The Cosmos” in the 80’s. That inspired an entire generation of scientists to look up at the stars and ponder our place in it

It's also a really good book. Quite a few important differences between the movie and the book, but that's pretty typical of film adaptations. I enjoyed all three: book, movie, and reaction. :)

The Mist is absolutely not a remake of The Fog. The Fog originally came out in 1980 and was a John Carpenter movie starring Jamie Lee Curtis. The Mist was a novella by Stephen King that came out in that same year (1980) and later got made into a movie. They don't even have the same story, or take place in the same location. The only similarity is that there is mist or fog involved and they are horror stories/films. The Fog is about a pirate crew coming to take revenge while The Mist is about cosmic horror entities from another dimension. The Fog takes place in Oregon. The Mist takes place in Maine. Anyway. Sorry. Not a remake.

Its still base on the same thing the fog comes into town its just a switch from the 1980 but still same

Julian Ortiz

Instead of pirate it creature from a different world the government open a door so whats the difference still the fog comes into a small town

Somehow I confused this movie which I hadn't seen with The Arrival 1996, which I've seen before, and spent this entire movie waiting for the plot from that movie to start happening.

Oh and the line Ellie says in the pod, they should've sent a poet, I think is in reference to a real line one of the Apollo astronauts said when they first saw earth from space.

This is one of my favorite movies of all time. What I love most is that it's about humanity and not aliens. It poses big questions about spirituality, religion, meaning, growth of technology, and community. I saw this movie for the first time when it came out in my early 20's. I thought I knew everything and I would believe what I believed forever. As I've gotten older, my spiritual views have changed dramatically. But I still enjoy this movie, because it challenges both sides. Having now experienced the loss of my parents, that beach scene is everything. It hits me so hard every time. My favorite thing about the movie is that it left all those questions open to interpretation. Enjoyed your reaction! P.S. That mirror scene was very cool!

The character of Michael Kitz who in the end resigned as National Security Adviser to head the special executive inquiry and personally spearhead the campaign to discredit Dr. Arroway, did not do so because he did not believe her story… he did so because he absolutely believed her story. They didn’t show it, but he was very likely promoted to a higher secret position in a secret department of our government that has always been dealing with “things” of this nature and part of his new job (or was it already his current job) is to convince the public and rest of the world, that none of this happened. Dr. Arroway had to be discredited and made a fool of. The world cannot believe that there are other world beings out there. Our government won’t allow that.

Larry Darrell

I’ve never understood the Science vs God debate. Science is the PROOF of God. And in the end. Dr. Arroway found God. She found her Faith.

I can't believe this movie is almost 30 years old....I watched it in cinema, and I was very excited about it. Carl Sagan's series Cosmos in the 80's was a big part of my childhood and changed and shaped my vision about the universe and mankind....so, when his book Contact made it to the big screen I was very pleased about it , and Iam even more pleased that this movie sparks the curiosity about who was Carl and his heritage as an astronomer and author....

okmyfriend

No way, what a wonderful surprise! I’ve always been a fan of this movie!

Dave Hampton

When these two movies came out around the same time ( a couple years apart) I thought both were maybe sort of possible but The Arrival was way less likely. My opinion has since flipped and I find The Arrival more likely lol. The most likely truth being something that neither film address IMHO. Still a lovely film with lots of interesting ideas.

Please watch Cosmos , either on your own or as a reaction. PBS series, its a bit dated but holds up pretty well.

It feels like this influenced the Bioware Team with Mass Effect

Just looked at your Patreon to see if you'd watched Dune pt 2 yet and saw this unexpectedly so now I'm subbed to watch it. The original novel is one of my favorites and has inspired me for a long time. I'm sure I will have more to say once I finish watching.

The book is a beautiful exploration of themes which Carl Sagan talked about a lot throughout his career: humanity's place in the endless cosmos, our endless search for meaning, fear of the unknown...I really recommend it if you have the time one week. It's Sagan's only fiction novel and it shows a bit, it's not the greatest writing and there's a lot of exposition, but the story is beautiful. It takes place over a longer period once the Message arrives, something like 12 years, and it digs a lot more into the longer-term effect the Message has on global civilization. The ending, the journey to the center of the galaxy, goes a good deal more in-depth as well, and there's maybe a bit more of an implied answer as to whether or not there's any proof or will ever be any proof that others will believe. A quote from the book which unfortunately didn't make it into the film but is important to me: "For small creatures such as we, the vastness is bearable only through love."
