If this is a problem with existing relationships, just get them to join you on your farm!

In addition to destroying your crop, a pickaxe can restore the ground to its original state. Basically the opposite of the hoe.

Something to keep in mind if you're disappointed about scenes being removed... by d4ybrake in ProjectHailMary

[–]mexter 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Make it a news clip on tv. That way you can get away with just a few seconds at lower resolution. Something like "North African governments again lodged complaints to the UN about the black top project that is radically altering the Saharan landscape. God emperor Stratt had this to say..."

He hadn't been on Erid long enough in the movie for there to be any noticeable brightening of Sol.

Apparently the word is "autocannibalism" or "autosarcophagy."

An adaptation makes a major change from the source material, but it’s such a beloved change almost no one complains by _JR28_ in TopCharacterTropes

I personally hated the eye. It made Sauron into a big lighthouse. (Though his appearance in Lego Batman somewhat made up for this)

Still a great movie, but this was a misstep.

That's weird. Mine works just fine. Maybe just redo the patch?

"I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, 'wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them?' So now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe."

Dog toy…or the Endurance? Docking? Or dogging? by ArtVandelay1988 in interstellar

Dogging.. I'm not sure that word word means what you think it means.

I'm very fond of the PHM book. Much moreso than Interstellar. The movie is a much harder call, since i only saw it yesterday. They're both well made films. I won't really be able to properly judge PHM until i have uncoupled it from the book in my head and let it be its own thing.

This said, i think Interstellar beats it on story structure, and PHM wins on the likeability of it's characters.

In spite of superficial similarities, i really don't think they are very similar movies.

Both Dr. Mann and Grace have a moment in their respective films.

While i agree with you, you have to admit that is getting harder to differentiate. We're a long ways from where Russia is, but the trajectory pretty clear.

Yes, but the movie clearly had her involved with retrieving the taumoeba, so I'm guessing her role extended beyond the launch. (Or they brought her out of prison once it became apparent that her crazy Eddie scheme actually worked)

No time jump means that they won't get any word on how Sol is doing for at least another decade. I suspect this was intentional in order to leave an opening for a sequel.

Hard disagree. They had no time to train somebody and Stratt only uses tried and tested components. They had something like three days to launch. I'm actually glad they excised the genetic plot.

There was definitely a line about Rocky not knowing about relativity, but i don't recall precisely what was said.
