"Project Hail Mary" was a fine movie but a poor adaptation. I'll always think Andy Weir is bad-weird for liking Star Trek "for the action"(???) but I do admit: the way his brain approaches storytelling makes my brain happy and the movie cut out too many super cool details that I enjoyed in the book.

Project Hail Mary (2026) Absolutely adored this movie, favourite one released so far this year I've seen. I loved the story and seeing Grace & Rocky's friendship develop through all the trials they faced was an incredible experience. Would absolutely recommend this if you haven't already seen it 🪨👎

Went to see Project Hail Mary tonight & it was such an inspiring movie. So many times we see aliens in movies that want to kill us on sight; it was so refreshing to see them working together & understand each other #projecthailmary #Movies #SciFi

I miss having a good board game or movie night. And talking about movies with others, saw Project Hail Mary. Sadly no one I know wants to talk cinematography, effects, plot, etc.

(This was of course about project Hail Mary, and my scorching hot take here is that, I do not feel the book significantly added anything that wasn’t already in the movie. The book is excellent. The movie is excellent. They are both excellent.)

(what I loved about the book was that it was more. I came out of the movie wanting more of the same, and the book was there, waiting for me to do just that.)

One thing I think is funny is that Andy Weir says some people were sad that the courtroom scene isn’t in the movie, but he’s not because he didn’t get the scene fact checked and now gets a bunch of messages from lawyers telling him how wrong it is lol

So much talk on here about Project Hail Mary so I've decided to take myself to the movies after work this week (Tuesday is cheap movie day 🙌)
