Yeah, I also have nightmares about the apocalypse. Ever since I had kids, I would have dreams about inescapable volcanoes or tidal waves and just feel completely hopeless. I don't need to watch movies about it. See also: 2012, The Walking Dead, The Road, A Quiet Place, the Day After Tomorrow, Deep Impact, The Mist, etc.
I didn't really know what it was about, and I watched it shortly after the November elections. I thought it was funny, but did I ever pick a bad time to watch it. It lost a lot of the overall joke feeling and while still farcical, now it's a little too close to reality.
