Steven Spielberg is back.

The legendary director hasn’t made a film since 2022’s phenomenal The Fabelmans, and his return couldn’t come at a better time.

The maestro is jumping back into the world of sci-fi blockbusters for the first time since 2016’s Ready Player One.

His latest, https://www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/disclosure-day-steven-spielbergs-return-to-alien-invasion-sci-fi-fails-to-take-flight/" rel="" target="_self" title="https://www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/disclosure-day-steven-spielbergs-return-to-alien-invasion-sci-fi-fails-to-take-flight/">Disclosure Day, is a major step up.

It’s also a giant middle finger to MAGA.

Now, Disclosure Day isn’t inherently political.

But like many great science-fiction films, it holds an illuminating mirror to our society. Disclosure Day is about evil forces trying to stop the truth about aliens from coming out.

Throughout the film, the powers that be do whatever they can to keep the story from leaking, working tirelessly and violently to keep their inhumane actions towards aliens from ever seeing the light of day.

Not unlike, say, the relentless mission to keep the Epstein files concealed.
