Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The encryption algorithm Daniel cracks is based on actual SETI signal patterns from 1977's 'Wow!' signal, which Spielberg personally requested from astronomers.
Released during peak UFO congressional hearing coverage, the film's 'Disclosure Day' protest scenes were shot months before real D.C. demonstrations occurred—Spielberg's researchers apparently knew something.

Reactions from the web
That is an insane transition from the deer face and eyes to the alien face and eyes

"How will disclosure change us?" We still get to work every monday but with aliens somewhere.
