Re: Project Hail Mary (2026)

This was fantastic in movie form.

A good book carried by a top of the line performance from Gosling. His best movie for sure.


e: biased as a Gosling fanboy, he also great in Bladerunner and Crazy, Stupid, Love

It's genuinely a flip of the coin.

Also it's spread to like a dozen countries at this point - this is a fucking global war we started.

I don't care how much we bomb, sink their Navy (again), and declare we are winning.

Reading too! Like it so far.

Nearly done - I thought that the first book is too short for the story that they are setting up, so good to hear there are more to come.

Guess i'll order #2.

I avoided this one forever as a new dad, and then the odd music at the beginning threw me off.

Finally got into and watched it. Way better than I expected and it’s good they didn’t ruin too much about the movie in previews because it wasn’t what i expected at all.

She has been saying wildly SANE things for a few months. I know she's up for re-election, but I didn't think she really has to fight for her seat.

Pretty wild.

Actually my unholy research today has me back at 50/50 that he really did kill himself.

He took a private phone call right before he died, which shouldn't have been allowed. Oh, to be a fly on that line. THAT IS out the godfather.

I don't think the mob nowadays is anywhere close to as powerful as it was depicted in the Godfather eras, or when they offed Jimmy Hoffa, those days are way over. More like the Sopranos eras.. yelling "the good times are behind us" and fighting over crumbs.
