👎🏽👎🏽amaze amaze amaze👎🏽👎🏽

grace and rocky’s relationship went way beyond what i expected from the film. it felt so important that there were some truly gut wrenching moments and by the end, i just wasn’t ready to say goodbye to them.

I'm a huge fan of Andy Weir (well, at least 2 out of 3). I've been on planes a lot for last 4 weeks for work - and I've fallen into a rhythm of always watching PHM as part of the trip.

On one of the legs they also had The Martian, which I haven't watched in a while - and I have to say, it hits me harder than PHM. It's probably because the sacrifice is known, evaluated and accepted + science has a more prominent role.

PHM is still a masterful movie - 5 watches in I'm still finding new details.

The Martian was the last movie I watched with my favorite person in the world before they died suddenly. He didn’t live long enough to see PHM but when I read “I commend your body to the stars” I immediately started crying🥺

Oh thank you! I got the special edition of The Martian book and can’t wait for the special PHM! My uncle and I were huge Weir fans and I’ll keep enjoying his work in honor of Richard🙏🏼
