I am conflicted. I read #projecthailmary when it came out and found it kind of dumb. I’ve since learned problematic things about Andy Weir that made me even less excited about the film. But we already had tickets for a rare full-family movie date thing. Sigh.

It was a goddamn delight. Pure Friday night Hollywood eye candy perfectly-tuned to hit all the feels. Dammit.

@c_dan4th Thanks for tooting about the movie Project Hail Mary. I was going to pass on seeing it, mistakenly thinking it was another "Alien" horror-type movie. Just read the movie plot line, and it doesn't seem to have that vibe. Am now looking forward to it.
@cfmccarthy Definitely not horror. Rocky (the alien) is entirely endearing in an E.T. crossed with a golden retriever way.
