Disclosure Day opens to a $44M weekend; Spielberg and Emily Blunt praised
E.T. Admits Shock At Not Even Being Called For Cameo In ‘Disclosure Day’ https://theonion.com/e-t-admits-shock-at-not-even-being-called-for-cameo-in-disclosure-day/
As famous as he's gotten, I'd imagine his minimum fee for an appearance would be way too high
They used ET's eye in the poster though
If this meme doesn't make it to Spielberg himself, the internet has failed us all
People, save yourself and watch it when it goes to streaming.
Another thing I hate about Disclosure Day is the gender dynamics. Of course, the boy gets science powers, and the girl gets THE POWER OF EMPATHY despite Emily Blunt characterized as heavily career-focused to the point of alienating her boyfriend. She's just gotta learn to be more emotional you see!
Disclosure Day had 'late stage shyamalan' or 'any stage nolan' vibes from the first trailer so im not shocked
Oh puke. That's like the Trek reboot where every major character got an extra 'thing' to add to their backstory. All except Uhura who got a love interest instead. Argh!
So movie by an 80 year old man who peaked in the 80’s
people keep saying Disclosure Day is silly for having the breaking news come from local television, but like 80% of the news that goes viral online is literally from television
it's like how people on TikTok will say journalism is dead while straight up reading full newspaper articles aloud for their followers
Most of what goes live on the news is from a local news affiliate!
I can't tell whether the responses to this movie are actual or feigned inability to follow a fairly straightforward plot.
Seeing complaints that the end of DISCLOSURE DAY is too abrupt and unsatisfying and, specifically, "they should show us what happens next" and what the hell is wrong with people
Also, multiple online folks are insisting Steven Spielberg clearly knows stuff about aliens -- like, for REAL real -- and this movie was supposed to be his way of revealing that to the world and I think maybe we should take their internet away
They don't know how to engage with art anymore, only "content," and expect the instant gratification of a social media video.
Now I'm very much more looking forward to watching it.
*cue that speech from stand by me*
I do want to watch Disclosure Day in theaters but I don't want to spend 2.5 hours (3 honestly) in a theater. ET was 2 hours. Encounters of the Third Kind was 2 hours 18m. 2 and a half hours is just too long for a movie. Like... any movie. Stop this.
Save movie theaters by bringing back films that are 1.5 hours and cost less than $25 dollars to buy a ticket for.
90 minutes is the perfect runtime for a movie
Had a rare night to watch a movie sans kid with the wife and it was a series of “we could watch this but it’s 2.5 hours and that’s all of our time”
I’m old enough that I’ll wait for it to come on TV.
