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.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.
