Thank you for writing this! Spielberg is my GOAT and I'm afraid nobody is making enough NOISE about his big return to sci-fi. The man spent his career making films about ordinary people colliding with the extraordinary and all the speculation in this piece is exactly what's gotten me hyped about Disclosure Day.
Now this is some GOOD EATS. Robert refuses to watch trailers, so I have been STARVED for discussion about this film. We need to have a sit down coffee date to talk about aliens because I need that in my life!!! Also, I own TAKEN on DVD and it always feels like NO ONE has seen it but me, so thank you for making me feel seen at last!
First, I laughed at that opening image. Second, I am going to scream and ululate alongside you over this movie. Waiting on the 490,000 more words.
