Project Hail Mary (References)

I may be wrong, but maybe it is somehow connected? Impossible not to think back to La La Land with Ryan Gosling there and to The Martian with Andy Weir also there. Especially with how they didn’t shy away at all from bringing up those films as they promoted Project Hail Mary. (Ryan even joked about redoing a scene with Rocky instead. This time, having his hand in a different direction, which had been haunting him?)

I caught Grace play-pretending a dance, while alone in space, that resembled one of Sebastian and Mia’s. Or was that just a silly moment? Like the glass tapping scene? Tapping is fun!

Anyhow and anyway, I wrote about both of those films too, in the past, so I had to go down memory lane. Like, I have to. It's what I do. So... LOOK HERE. It’s LA LA LAND AND THE MARTIAN WE’RE TALKING ABOUT. Do I have your attention now? But then again, ADDers will ADD. And that’s probably fine, too. ‘Cause… references. Sometimes they apply. Sometimes. Etc.

Okay, what could I have possibly written back then?

July 22, 2018. Excerpt from a La La Land post. You know what? I’m soooo thankful that Project Hail Mary took a different turn. I craved that happy ending. Romantic or not. Sentimentality can be just as wonderful.

January 4, 2027. Excerpt from a The Martian post. Actually, all the text. It was a quick post. But why was I ending each and every single sentence with an exclamation mark in the first paragraph? Was I shouting or what? Strange.

Time flies. And one day is not enough for everything I’d like to delve into regarding Project Hail Mary and all it may entail and imply. So happy I can nerd out on it forever!
