Directly. * Tey'll make sure no-one besides "white house" knows about this. * They would not launch a "BASH" mission, - instead they launch a something from a very remote place. Perhaps many at the same time. Not to collect minerals but to obliterate this comet as fast as possible. * They do everything to divert people's eyes from the real mission. You know Arena 51? That top-secret. * We prob. have scenes from Arena 51, or some other place, maybe we already made contact with aliens, who knows? * They wouldn't tell us until they absolutely sure they failed their mission, or its impossible to see. Even if we saw the "comet" they come up with a story to divert the attention again. * They prob. all tell us that they have done this before. Why wouldn't we wanna "practice" in saving our planet? Shoot nukes into space, who would care? I really hope there been multiple of test launches to destroy comets before this 'real one' happen.

Then there is another group of people in the middle who think that 60% of the country has lost their minds and sit back and marvel at what is going on right now. But it sure is fun being smug about it in a group of people that feels the same and getting patted on the back for fitting in. ;-)

Did you guys notice the sign on the phone repair shop window towards the end " Shovels ONLY $599.99". That killed me. Brilliant movie. Last time I feelt this good about a movie overall was after watching my forever favorite Forrest Gump. And I almost missed the last part, after the credits. That part was so sick relevant. Last year Borat, this year Don't look up. Awesome

Throughout the movie the prices kept going up. And at the end (that I will not spoil) there is a full screen shot of a shovel floating by. 😎

I loved the whole movie. Perfect balance of satire and reality, sad truthful ending but extreamely factual. I felt less alone.

Brilliant film! So many spot on underlying critiques about society and great performances. Really good films are few nowadays so it's great to see this kind of thing.

I had no idea he directed anchorman lol… Keep falling deeper in love with this guy. Surprised he didn’t mention The Big Short…It’s the movie that comes to mind when someone asked me what my favorite movie is, maybe also because of its timing just a genius blessed man all around making world a better place.

What made Jonah Hills prayer was Meryl Streep shaking her head in agreement! Very subtle, she sold his improv as script.

I thoroughly enjoyed 'Don't Look Up'. Knowing you wrote it prior to Covid-19, and that it encapsulated the whole 'denial' of the existence of the virus was so poignant to me.

That guy was seriously nervous in front of the camera and I love it. To lean back in that chair is probably the only position his hands and voice arent starting to tremble. That's really helpful to see for me, because I have exactly the same body reactions when put on the spot. 😁 Very good answers. His mind worked like a charm. 🙌🏻

@daniangelicamongiat2417 2 жыл бұрын

loved hearing his comedic insights here. Don't Look Up is one of the most important movies ever made. I don't think that's an overstatement or exaggeration at all. He hysterically holds up a mirror to what has become a horrific, consciously ignorant society in denial. The way McKay totally pulls it off and makes everyone laugh while still feeling the seriousness of the situation is no small feat. totally what i wanted to write about this. film: i started to attend "NEtflix ' just to watch this calibre films __ sleep walking ,,

Lol @ important. It's a propaganda film just like "The Birth of a Nation" and "Triumph of the Will". These films are designed to whip up ideologues and true-believers into a moral panic and have them brutalize others at the behest of the so-called urgency of the fear-mongering. Nothing's changed in 100 years. Sadly, people still fall for this like lemmings, when historical precedent should have taught them better.

I saw "Don't Look Up" I thought it was well acted and some bits were funny but for me the cameos were the best part. I did not know Adam McKay was responsible for "Anchorman" and "The Other guys" - Those films are comedy classics.😂😂

He did The Big Short and Vice, two awesome films in their own dark comedy ways with good messages.
