Loving the support for Contact!

[MikeDuke]

Me Too. It's one of the few films that gave me goose bumps, the chills, When she was walking on the gantry my heart was pumping so hard. Just a great movie.

The fact that Contact was not nominated for Best Picture or, hell, even Special Effects, is a crime against film.

I always had the impression I was the only one who liked (or even noticed) Contact; I'm glad to see I was wrong.

One of my ALL time favorite movies.

I haven't seen that movie since I was like 12 years old and tbh I forgot most of it.

I do remember that sound though from the trailer.
