The Regular Exclusive Podcast

Don’t Look Up

This week, we’re talking about Adam McKay’s hilarious but powerful comedy about the end of the world: Don’t Look Up (Netflix). This movie was pretty divisive, but we think it deserves more credit than it’s been given, so naturally we’re here to defend it. 
We start off the episode by talking about a couple of things that happened last week (0:08), including the Cocaine Bear trailer and Mike Flanagan ditching Netflix for Amazon. 
Then, we get into our discussion of Don’t Look Up (7:12), where we break down all the things this movie is doing as well as the insane amount of talent in every scene.
Topics include: what made us laugh, cry + stop to think, this might be Jonah Hill’s best performance, and if this movie will prove to be more accurate with every passing year.
We tease next week’s episode at the end if you listen to those things (56:16).
In the meantime, let us know what you think about Don’t Look Up (if you must), and don't forget to subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts!

Before we get into the Jean Jacket of it all, we quickly talk about some of our favorite holiday movies since it’s officially December (0:07). 
Then, we get into Nope with some spoiler-free discussion (08:53), but be warned that we do talk spoilers eventually (16:43).
Topics include: How the hell Gordy fits into everything, the best high-five in cinema history, and why this movie is basically ‘Jaws’ in the sky (in the best way possible).
