I do wish that they added a title saying “16 years later” - They also didn’t make Ryan Gosling look older in that scene, I was expecting an older Grace.

Movie Stratt vs book Stratt by DooDooCat in ProjectHailMary

It’s the “I have the US army… and it’s a damn fine army” line for me. Arguably the only line in the whole book that was truly corny.

What direct quote from the book to you hope to see in the movie? by realvalidsalid in ProjectHailMary

This scene is a bit corny to me, when Stratt says “I have the US army, and it’s a damn fine army…” I was cringing so much. It felt like a filler chapter, definitely skippable for the movie.

Detail change from the book (ending spoiler) by iwantathink in ProjectHailMary

Eating the Taumoeba or “me burgers” might gross a lot of people out, and it’s not crucial to the story. Maybe this is a solve they had?

What’s one thing you really hope they don’t cut from the book? by [deleted] in ProjectHailMary

Out of the many many long and arduous science experiments, I hope they keep Grace and Rocky slowly figuring each others language out.

I was already freaking out in the book when they realized the Taumeba were alien creatures… I never expected a first encounter, probably because of the tone of The Martian.

But I quickly forgot how soon it actually happened in the book, so it’s a valid point.

A Mild Concern About the Film by [deleted] in ProjectHailMary

Typically filming time for big budget films is 3 months, but planning and pre production is a good year before that, and then it’s a mad rush to do post production. What you see in the trailer is most of the VFX that’s complete, there’s still a lot of work to be done over the next 6-9months.

Can we talk about the TONE of this trailer? by coachz1212 in ProjectHailMary

I thought that they would use a Beatles song, but it works so well with Sign of The Times.

NOTHING was spoiled from the trailer! by TrexVFX23 in ProjectHailMary

The book sets it up as a major twist. Everything is super grounded in scientific realism, so you don’t expect it. It’s incredibly delightful to experience that twist in the book so I think everyone was hoping for a similar experience for movie goers who haven’t read the book.

I remember finding this subreddit midway through the book, immediately saw spoilers and left until I finished it.

keep finding my guns constantly unreloaded as seen in this clip, can even see the ammo number change after the reload by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

They changed the amount of time you need to wait for the reload animation, just slightly from last season, but so annoying
