221 - Don’t Look Up

Join us as we discover a comet heading for Earth, ensuring the destruction of life as we know it, and try warn everyone about the four star general charging for free snacks, as we discuss the brand new star-studded satire ‘Don’t Look Up’. Don't Look Up is a 2021 American satirical science fiction film written, produced, and directed by Adam McKay. It stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence as two astronomers attempting to warn humanity about an approaching comet that will destroy human civilization. The comet is an analogy for climate change and the film is a satire of government and media indifference to the climate crisis. Supporting cast include Rob Morgan, Jonah Hill, Mark Rylance, Tyler Perry, Timothée Chalamet, Ron Perlman, Ariana Grande, Scott Mescudi, Himesh Patel, Melanie Lynskey, Cate Blanchett, and Meryl Streep. Grande and Mescudi also collaborated on the song "Just Look Up" as part of the film's soundtrack. We Watched A Thing is supported by Dendy Cinemas Canberra.
