Please, do not read if bad language offends you:
No, I haven’t lost my mind at last. Instead we watched “Don’t Look Up“. If you haven’t heard of this comedy by film director Adam McKay yet it’s about this: a huge meteorite hurdles towards earth. Two scientists discover it and warn the US president who is a woman but somehow reminded me dramatically of Donald Trump. Meryl Streep did a great job ๐. I won’t tell you if they succeeded just in case you haven’t seen it. Oh, there is, of course, a mobile phone/social media magnate who wants to make some money with the meteorite. Did I tell you it’s big. The meteorite? Really big?
But what really made me laugh out loud is Ariana Grande’s song to support those who take the threat seriously and look up to see it. Part of the lyrics go like that (sorry for the bad language):
…get your head out of your ass
Listen to the goddamn qualified scientists
We really fucked it up, fucked it up this time…
I can’t stop feeling like shouting that continuously at anti-maskers, anti-vaccers and climate crisis deniers.
Here is the song:
Want a sneak peek into the film? Here it is:
I watched a couple of curious and sometimes extremely funny films in 2021. Maybe I tell you more later. Maybe not ๐
Please stay safe, stay kind and remember to
…get your head out of your ass &
Listen to the goddamn qualified scientists…

Absolutely. We rarely watch a film twice but I could watch this one time and time again. Even though I hate the death of the scientists ๐๐ค

The best part was when the president was eaten by a brontaroc.

Her son was the biggest jerk in the whole movie, but she deserved it for letting the world get destroyed because of greed.
