dynamite 50,362 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Has anyone else seen this? I'm watching it now and it's like watching a film about Coronavirus it's freaky The scenes at the beginning kind of put me off my food though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rj Barker 3,320 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Fantastic film. Alot of epidemiologists etc came out and said that it's the truest to reality pandemic film there is. If covid was deadlier than it is, this is exactly what it would be like. Crazy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaLuna 12,732 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Nope, and I refuse to watch it, the last thing I need is a movie about a pandemic that feels too real < But now that I think about it, not long before the whole thing started I actually played a board game called Pandemic.

They had a bunch of epidemiologists help with the movie. It’s a pretty interesting story. I’ve actually never seen the movie but I plan on watching it after the virus dies down.

Little did I know Wait. Pandemic is the BEST board game! Have you played the legacy versions? we just played Pandemic Legacy Season 0 and it shook me to my CORE! OT: I work in the entertainment industry in Chicago, and have to say that Contagion (while terrifying) is one of the most well-remembered projects by the community at whole. Great people, great film, great experiences. We seem to have a penchant for disaster films/TV in Chicago. We also had Captive State shoot here. I think Amazon's Utopia (which was also filmed here) got cancelled because it was just too real for folks during this time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
