    Adam McKay is just not somebody to let issues go. He took to X to bash the Democratic Social gathering left and proper after Donald Trump gained re-election in November. And he’s apparently nonetheless aggrieved by how critics trashed his Netflix film “Don’t Look Up” in 2021.

    The film was positioned as a metaphor for local weather change: A comet was heading towards a collision with earth that might trigger an extinction-level disaster. As a substitute of most individuals taking the approaching doom critically, the U.S. president tries to disclaim it by peddling MAGA-style “Don’t Look Up” caps, the media tries to sensationalize it and divert consideration as a substitute to the hotness of the astrophysicist (Leonardo DiCaprio) who first made the invention, and a tech CEO (Mark Rylance) tries to determine how they’ll mine valuable metals from the comet all whereas making ready his personal getaway from the planet.

    “The estimates of how many individuals noticed that film – Netflix won’t ever say precisely – nevertheless it’s someplace between 400 million and half a billion. Viewers all actually linked with the thought of being gaslit. Being lied to by their leaders, lied to by their massive information media, and being lied to by industries. It was humorous – once I realized that was the frequent connection level, I used to be like, after all! It’s occurring in all places now with this world neo-liberal economic system that we’re all residing in. It’s such a most cancers and everyone seems to be feeling it.”
