Btw idk why I have anxiety the entire time... (no, not anxiety about the plot... like just random anxiety) but besides that....

Great experience (ish... I rather own a movie theater and have it all by myself so I don't have so much anxiety)

BIG SCREEN

My favorite sequence was when:

SPOILERSRocky risks his life to save Grace

I like the sequence of like the darkness and then a flash of light to show whats going on... that was so cool

I love the moments of silence...

So much different from just watching it on a 15.6 inch screen + headphones at home... (and also I'd have to wait for home release...)

(Put any spoilers in tags pls)

Edit: Also I was gonna take a photo of the theater and like the outside areas after you check in... and also like the mall area and stuff... but I kinda forgot due to anxiety... lol

Edit2: ALSO: I missed so much dialogue because my ears suck lol. I thought my English was good having arrived at 8 years old but apparantly not lmfao

Need a rewatch later at home (when home release comes out) WITH SUBTITLES

I saw it last night and really liked it. The book seemed perfect for an adaptation, and I think they pulled off the tricky bits.

I'm old so I've seen lots of movies, but mostly in the distant past. In the 90s it was almost a weekly thing. This century it's very rare.

I never read the book lol...

I have attention span issues when too many words...

All I knew was:
The Martian = Good
Project Hail Mary = Same Author
Space = Cool
Therefore: Must also be good

Also never read The Martian...

2 hour is easy to find...

Reading a book will take like a week for me...

Basically the same thing so why bother (at least thats what my brain thinks, hard to justify reading words that I have trouble picturing...)
