2021 電影
貪婪、私慾、不團結,錯失救贖機會,落跑的壞蛋結局更慘。
Plot[edit]
這是一份針對 2021 年電影《千萬別抬頭》(Don't Look Up)劇情的Google AI 全文翻譯:
凱特·狄比亞斯基(Kate Dibiasky)是一名就讀於密西根州立大學、利用速霸陸望遠鏡進行研究的天文學博士生。她發現了一個先前未知的近地天體。她的教授藍道·明迪博士(Dr. Randall Mindy)計算出這顆彗星將在大約六個月後撞擊地球,且其規模足以引發全人類滅絕。美國航太總署(NASA)內部證實了明迪的計算。在 NASA 行星防禦協調辦公室負責人泰迪·奧格爾索普博士(Dr. Teddy Oglethorpe)的陪同下,狄比亞斯基與明迪向白宮呈報了他們的發現,卻遭到總統珍妮·奧林(Janie Orlean)及其兒子兼幕僚長傑森·奧林(Jason Orlean)的冷淡對待。
奧格爾索普敦促狄比亞斯基和明迪向媒體爆料。隨後,他們登上了由布麗·伊凡提(Brie Evantee)與傑克·布雷默(Jack Bremmer)主持的晨間談話節目。由於主持人並未嚴肅看待這份威脅,狄比亞斯基情緒失控,在鏡頭前憤怒控訴,結果引來網路上的大肆嘲諷。狄比亞斯基的男友公開與她劃清界線,而明迪卻獲得了公眾的青睞。彗星威脅的真實新聞幾乎未受公眾關注,甚至遭到奧林任命的 NASA 局長公開否認——該局長是奧林的高額捐款者,完全沒有天文學背景。
當奧林陷入性醜聞時,她為了轉移注意力並提升支持率,轉而確認彗星的威脅,並宣佈啟動一項計畫:發射太空船利用核子武器撞擊並改變彗星軌道。太空船成功發射,但隨後卻被奧林強制召回,原因是由奧林的另一位金主、BASH 公司億萬富翁執行長彼得·伊舍威爾(Peter Isherwell)發現,該彗星蘊含價值數兆美元的稀土元素。
白宮同意對彗星進行商業開發,計畫將其粉碎後從海洋中回收。這項技術由 BASH 公司的諾貝爾獎得主提出,且未經過學術同行評審。白宮排擠了狄比亞斯基和奧格爾索普,並聘請明迪擔任國家科學顧問。狄比亞斯基揭露了政府任由彗星撞擊地球的計畫,引發全球暴動,奧林政府則威脅她噤聲。明迪成為推廣彗星商機的核心人物,並與伊凡提展開婚外情。
世界輿論分裂為三派:要求徹底摧毀彗星的人、斥責危言聳聽並相信採礦能創造就業的人,以及否認彗星存在的人。狄比亞斯基回到伊利諾州的家中,並與尤爾(Yule)開始交往。明迪的妻子瓊(June)發現了他的不忠;隨後明迪在電視直播中爆發,憤怒地批評奧林政府淡化末日危機,並質疑人性對此的冷漠。
被政府封殺後,明迪在彗星肉眼可見之際與凱特和好。當明迪、狄比亞斯基與奧格爾索普在社群媒體上組織名為「仰望星空」(Just Look Up)的抗議活動,呼籲各國採取行動改變彗星軌道時,奧林政府則發起了針鋒相對的「千萬別抬頭」(Don't Look Up)活動。當奧林將中國、印度和俄羅斯排除在採礦協議之外後,這三國嘗試聯合執行攔截任務,但其太空船在發射時爆炸。
BASH 公司破碎彗星的嘗試也以失敗告終。伊舍威爾、奧林與其他富豪隨即搭乘一艘旨在讓乘客進入低溫睡眠、尋找類地行星的太空船逃離地球,奧林的兒子傑森則不慎被遺留下來。彗星隨後撞擊地球,導致絕大多數人口死亡。
22,740 年後,逃離地球的人們在一個生機蓬勃的外星行星降落,從冷凍睡眠中醒來。他們赤身裸體且幾乎空手地步出船艙。奧林總統很快就被一種名為「布隆特魯」(Bronteroc)的外星生物咬死,隨著更多布隆特魯逼近,剩餘的人類推測也全數罹難。片尾彩蛋顯示,傑森獨自從瓦礫堆中爬出後,依然在社群媒體上發文。
Kate Dibiasky, a Michigan State University astronomy PhD student doing work with the Subaru Telescope, discovers a previously unknown near-Earth object. Her professor, Dr. Randall Mindy, calculates that the comet will impact Earth in about six months, and is large enough to cause a planet-wide extinction event. NASA internally confirms Mindy's calculations. Accompanied by NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office head Dr. Teddy Oglethorpe, Dibiasky and Mindy present their findings to the White House but are met with apathy from President Janie Orlean and her son, Chief of Staff Jason Orlean. Oglethorpe urges Dibiasky and Mindy to leak the news to the media, which they do on a morning talk show hosted by Brie Evantee and Jack Bremmer. When the hosts do not take the threat seriously, Dibiasky loses her composure and rants about the threat, prompting widespread online mockery. Dibiasky's boyfriend publicly denounces her, while Mindy receives public approval. The actual news about the comet's threat receives little public attention. Furthermore, the threat of the comet is publicly denied by Orlean's Director of NASA, a top donor to Orlean with no background in astronomy.
When Orlean is involved in a sex scandal, she diverts attention and improves her approval ratings by confirming the threat of the comet and announcing a project to launch a spacecraft that can strike and divert the comet using nuclear weapons. The spacecraft successfully launches, but is forced to turn back by Orlean when Peter Isherwell, the billionaire CEO of BASH and another of Orlean's top donors, discovers that the comet is composed of trillions of dollars' worth of rare-earth elements. The White House agrees to commercially exploit the comet by fragmenting and recovering it from the ocean using new technology proposed by BASH's Nobel Laureates that has not undergone scholarly peer review. The White House sidelines Dibiasky and Oglethorpe, while hiring Mindy as the National Science Advisor. Dibiasky reveals the government's plan to let the comet hit Earth, sparking riots worldwide. Orlean's administration threatens Dibiasky into silence. Mindy becomes a prominent voice advocating for the comet's commercial opportunities and begins an affair with Evantee. World opinion is divided among those who demand total destruction of the comet, those who decry unjustified alarmism and believe the mining of the comet will create jobs, and those who deny that the comet even exists.
Dibiasky returns home to Illinois and begins a relationship with Yule. Mindy's wife, June, discovers his infidelity, and he becomes angry, voicing his frustrations on live television, launching into a rant criticizing Orlean's administration for downplaying the impending apocalypse and questioning humanity's indifference. Cut off by Orlean's administration, Mindy reconciles with Kate as the comet becomes visible from Earth. As Mindy, Dibiasky and Oglethorpe organize a protest campaign on social media against Orlean and BASH telling people to "Just Look Up" and calling on other countries to conduct operations of their own to deflect the comet, Orlean's administration launches an opposing campaign, "Don't Look Up".
When Orlean cuts out China, India and Russia from the comet mining deal, the three countries conduct a joint attempt of their own to deflect the comet, but their spacecraft explodes at launch. BASH's attempt at breaking the comet apart also goes awry and fails, leading to Isherwell, Orlean and other wealthy people fleeing Earth on a spaceship designed to keep its passengers alive cryogenically while it seeks the nearest Earth-like planet. Orlean offers Mindy two places on the ship, but he declines, choosing to spend his last moments in the company of his family, Dibiasky, Yule, and Oglethorpe. The evacuees inadvertently leave Jason behind. The comet hits the planet, killing the majority of the population of Earth.
22,740 years later, the people who left Earth before the impact land on a lush alien planet, ending their cryogenic sleep. They exit their spacecraft nude and mostly empty-handed. Orlean is quickly killed and eaten by an alien creature called a Bronteroc, while more Bronterocs approach the humans, presumably killing them offscreen. A post credits scene shows Jason posting on social media after emerging from the rubble alone.
