Contagion. It’s a scary and oddly prescient movie during our current world-wide Coronavirus crisis, where the deaths today reached 61,144, and the cases are at 1,139,112. (As stated by the live tracking site WorldOMeter.)
We always report if there are extra scenes in the movies we see for RunPee, and recently made Peetimes for the 2011 flick Contagion, about a deadly novel virus emerging from a bat to a pig to an index patient in China. (Hmmm, sound familiar?) A virus which spread throughout the world and killed off massive waves of humanity…among other bad things, least of which might be a lack of toilet paper.
Is there an extra scene in Contagion?
Technically, there isn’t a ‘scene’, but there’s definitely an extra bit worth catching.
There’s nothing during the rolling credits of Contagion until the very, very end, where’s there’s a chilling — and prophetic — line on-screen:
It’s not IF, but WHEN. Get ready at www/takepart.com/contagion
This website is currently live in the 2020 wake of the CoVid-19 pandemic — there’s lots of helpful information prepared by Columbia University. I made sure to take a look around the site, and there are some good succinct articles. Best of all: several short videos made by the caring actors of the film. Matt Damon, Kate Winslet and Lawrence Fishburne (among others) posted timely, simple messages to help us through this crisis. Definitely take a look.
And wash your hands.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
This is a great app. I wish more people would support it
This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let’s you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It’s really a wonderful app. I’ve subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn’t seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven’t tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Developers note: RunPee doesn’t make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We’ll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.
