I liked Contact. Did you read the book? - I think I want to read the book now... I read two of Carl Sagan's non-fiction books and liked them a lot, but about 20 years ago I stopped reading fiction books because I felt my time was better spent on non-fiction... BTW, I very rarely watch movies, because I feel my time is better spent reading non-fiction, but sometimes I feel I can learn something from thinking about fictional stories... and sometimes I just want to enjoy a good entertaining movie... if I can let go of the feeling that I should be doing something more important.

Did you see the movie "Serenity"? - or the TV show FireFly?
- if yes, what did you think of them?

I got the Serenity DVD because of the title and it had a low enough price... and maybe because a few of my friends had said it was an awesome movie, but I don't think so because I bought it about a year after the movie came out and I don't think I realized it was the movie which they had been raving about... and I had not seen Firefly or any of Joss's TV shows (I don't own a TV and I very very rarely watch any TV programs).

Anyways, I liked it a lot. I then bought the Firefly DVD box set, and over a two week period watched all the shows, and I liked them all.

OK, two more movie Qs:
If you saw "The Matrix" movie (1st one) what did you think of it?
- and what about the follow up movie(s)?
