Don't look up is basically a documentary at this point
That’s actually kind of true.
The original script was written pre-Covid. Adam McCay wound up having to make changes after the reality of society’s response to the pandemic was even more outrageous than his initial script.
His first attempt at outrageous parody turned out to be an underestimate…
The sad thing was that the movie was clearly an allegory to climate change, and the COVID happened a s we fucked that up almost exactly the same way, so now it's really confusing which emergency response is being satirized.
