I haven’t known what movies to watch lately. Does everyone have their own treasure movies that they’ve seen many times? 😀

      The Martian is my favorite book and the movie was surprisingly close! Very well made.

      Do you have recommendations for a fellow fan? I haven’t seen the middle two you mentioned, are either of them similar in style? Like in the nerdy, clever ideas, positive vibes, collaboration, and plausible physics type of way

        I suspect it’s a rare movie that can hit all of those themes.

        Primer is close, but it doesn’t have positive vibes. It’s quite dramatic and a bit dark.

        Moon is another that might be close. It’s not so plausible, it I think you’ll get similar vibes to The Martian.

        Last, you might try Mickey 17. It’s a recent film. It’s not realistic, but the vibes are somewhat similar also.
