Why?
It's like the Twister of alien movies.
What? Literally nothing happens in the movie. The name is apt because all they do is contact/communicate/talk the whole friggin film. Twister was off the chain action.
The plot is similar in that Jodie Foster/Helen Hunt are obsessed with their craft because of what happened with their fathers.

Twister was definitely more actiony and easily the better movie but Contact is super underrated.
Alright I'll give you the chasing craft because of father thing. Hey, just like Interstellar.

It also just had that same nostalgic 90s charm to it. Interstellar is technically the "better" movie, but I enjoyed Contact a bit more.

Has anyone seen The Arrival with Charlie Sheen? Supposed to be a pretty good 90s alien movie.

Arrival is much better.
Not removing until John Elway is fired.

Agreed, Contact sucked. The only good thing about it was John Hurt being the crazy rich guy.

How is Starbucks popular? I never went there to begin with and when I started drinking coffee I got busy one morning and couldn't brew my own. Went to Starbucks and it was absolute crap and retardedly expensive.

The actual coffee has always sucked. They used to have the most incredible pumpkin scones and discontinued them for some reason.

You gotta love corporations getting rid of their most beloved items and bringing them back sporadically. This is why mass shootings happen imo.
