I've already seen Project Hail Mary (2026) once in the theater this year.
The book and movie are favorites here at League HQ, especially with Jamie. She wanted to pick a movie, it had been six months since we'd seen this one, so I was in agreement.
I will say, as much as I enjoyed this movie again, it was one I'd say should have been seen on the big screen. It's a sensory experience from the elaborate visuals to the sound to the score. It's good at home, but it was something else in an auditorium.
I have heard the social media chatter around this movie is very weird, with edge lords who are mad that our lead character is a relatable human being instead of a gritty kick-ass guy, and then the folks who can only relate to media by turning it into wank material frustrated that there's no one to "ship" Grace with other than a rock.*
Sigh.
Anyway... I am not going to write up a movie again that I liked perfectly well, already discussed, as well as discussing the book.
*apparently a kick-ass, brilliant woman (with a lovely shade of hair) who gets shit done is not an option
