Roy Neary: Just close your eyesand hold your breathand everything will turn real pretty.
A very happy 79th birthday to the one the only Steven "Stevie" Spielberg! 79's not exactly the world's most interesting number -- although given how exhausting a single year feels these days making it through seven-nine of these bitches is an accomplishment, I'll give him that -- so why am I picking him among the list of celebrity birthdays today to celebrate in particular? Because it gives me an excuse to post the teaser trailer for Disclosure Day, his next movie -- yes this dropped two days ago and surely if you've wanted to watch it by now but since it stars Josh O'Connor AND Colman Domingo I feel as if it needs to have its spot here at MNPP.
What do we think? I think for one I want to see absolute nothing else about this -- I want to maintain all the rest of the mystery; I wanna go in with all the questions that two minutes of footage posits. I will say that if I had to guess this is a "good" alien movie a la Close Enocounters and E.T. though -- a forceful reclamation of optimism in the face of so much not-optimism in the world right now feels very Spielberg to me, and this movie is based on an "original idea" from Spielberg himself. Thoughts?

Awful title. Sounds like a direct to video/streaming movie. The font and poster don't help either. It's a Roland Emmerich movie.
more religious propaganda starring Josh O'Connor? I was sick of that after the last knives out movie
Colman Domingo is entering Morgan Freeman territory and Josh is saying yes to often as good as he can be.
They're both def working a lot, but... who says no to Spielberg?
I don't think anyone can or should say no to Spielberg!
Yeah I wish I hadn't seen the trailer. Nothing more for me. I can tell I'm probably gonna fall for it, hook line and sinker like I usually do. I've been a sucker for his movies my whole life with only one exception
