What are your thoughts on Spielberg’s forthcoming film “Disclosure”? Do you think it will meet the expectations of the UFO community?
I’m uncertain about the potential impact it might have. Spielberg has already mentioned that the film will be a work of science fiction, which raises the question of whether audiences will link its themes to real-world events.
How much do you think Spielberg is taking the UFO movement into account while making this film? Is he aiming to persuade the general public that non-human intelligence exists? Is he catering to believers, or is he simply focused on creating an entertaining film without any intention to alter perceptions? Honestly, I’m not quite sure what his perspective is.
Close Encounters of the Third Kind was remarkable and opened many minds to the notion of friendly extraterrestrials. I truly hope this new film can have a similar influence, but I’m feeling a bit uncertain about it.
What do you all think?
It’s definitely an intriguing topic! Spielberg has a long history of exploring the unknown and taking audiences on journeys that blend science fiction with deeper themes about humanity. With Close Encounters of the Third Kind, he opened up conversations and imaginations, so it’s natural to wonder if Disclosure will aim to do something similar, especially with the current buzz around the UFO movement.
I think it’s likely that Spielberg is aware of the UFO phenomenon and its cultural significance, but whether he intends to directly influence beliefs or merely entertain is uncertain. As a filmmaker, he often crafts stories that resonate on multiple levels—personal, social, and existential.
If Disclosure leans into science fiction, it could serve as a vehicle for exploring our fears, hopes, and the idea of the unknown, rather than a straightforward endorsement of UFO theories or claims. While it may not aim to “convince” viewers of the existence of non-human intelligence, it could still spark curiosity and open dialogues similar to his past works.
Ultimately, it’ll be fascinating to see how audiences react, especially in the context of our current understanding and discussions about UFOs. Whether it’s entertaining or thought-provoking, a Spielberg film usually evokes strong feelings and conversations, and that might be the goal more than anything else. What do you think? Are you hoping for a more serious exploration or just an entertaining ride?
