Don't Look Up, Adam McKay, 2021
probably a typical post-truth film, where truth doesn’t have much effect on reality anymore. also a “fun” metaphor for global warming crisis/the ending of the holocene.
it’s also interesting to look at it from execution point of view: what is actually being executed in this scenario that guides the significant, administrative decision making towwards a world-ending reality?
quite parallel to our own reality outside the film, the executed version of reality in the film is not driven by the scientific truth, it’s driven by a slogan from political campaign, media staging for rating, corporate calculations of revenue and investment. Each of them pass through its own protocol, embedded in infrastructures of political communication, media formatting, capitalist markets and so on. they define what can and cannot be executed as reality.
as a result, they push the world-ending comet itself out of the central frame. The comet is still coming but it becomes irrelevant. what becomes real is the administrative manoeuvring, media spectacle, and the promises of capital investment. Only the scientific truth fails to pass the protocol, while memes, political agendas, and capital successfully generate the shared reality that drives the collective action (or inaction).
