    it's crazy how fast movies become dated. for instance, the 2021 movie "Don't Look Up" no longer makes sense, because if an American scientist discovered a planet-killing comet heading towards us today, their main response would be "oh thank fuck for that"

    For me, the Netflix movie DON'T LOOK UP is the most important film in recent memory. Its dark satire evokes the terrifying absurdity of Dr. Strangelove, Network, and Idiocracy. Scathing, funny, and poignant.

    The film 'Don't Look Up' has been in my mind as LA burns & Musk prepares to take power with Trump. There's something about the sense we're 'living through a real life movie' that is resonant somehow; says something about this cultural moment. Times may be terrible but they are terribly compelling...

    The movie Don't Look Up is so frighteningly realistic. The different characters so intelligently drawn. In the end, it is the Musk figure that kills the entire human race. The Trump figure is just the aid - the puppet. The movie is not fun, but really helpful to understand. youtu.be/RbIxYm3mKzI?...

    pretty much everybody I have spoken to in real life thought DIGGER was a film along the same lines as DON'T LOOK UP rather than a brutal satire of that kind of film and so had no intention of seeing it. film blew its marketing hard but I suspect will look good in long run.

    Now having seen Digger I find the bad and ambivalent reviews utterly depressing. It's so good it's like a 2025 movie, a year of great, weird films. I wonder if the response is like that to Don't Look Up--which was funny and smart and very good. Digger is Brazil to Don't Look Up's Dr Strangelove.

    Woke up thinking of Digger. It is probably easily the most Latourian film of all time. (I'm apparently not the only one to make this connection) Digger to Don't Look Up is late era Latour hitting early era Latour in the head with a shovel.

    As a data point here, Inarritu literally developed Digger as a Netflix movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio before it got canceled bc it was seen as too similar to Don't Look Up. So when Keith says Inarritu hates Adam McKay, I 100% believe it.

    Okay so having read the full summary I can confidently say that this is *worse* than Don't Look Up because at least that movie was just intended as "art to wake up the sheeple", whereas Digger's message is explicitly that art itself is useless because the rich will always control everything anyway.

    Digger definitely feels like a response to Don't Look Up, even if its production cycle predates that film by some time, it was clearly updated a lot along the way. It is a film that feels bleak, and yet one that I read as significantly more hopeful than DLU.

    30. The Democrats are prepared to hasten that moment. The DNC released a campaign video last week that featured a clip from Don't Look Up, a movie about scientists trying to warn of a meteor hurtling toward Earth – "an extinction-level event," as Hakeem Jeffries might say.
