The movie Project Hail Mary is one of the best book to movie adaptations I’ve ever seen.
With that being said, here’s a list of things I wish made it into the movie:
Grace’s “holy fucking shit!” after seeing the blip-a for the first time
Literally anytime Grace compared Rocky to a spider
Stratt nuking Antarctica + the climatologist(I don’t remember his name) having a breakdown and crying
Dubois and Shaprio’s relationship + Grace being awkward
When Grace gets drunk and sad because he thinks he’ll never see Rocky again after they complete their mission
“Easy for you to say when you’re not the one being murdered! You’re murdering me!”
Grace coming back to Project Hail Mary so he can save his kids
“You are leaky space blob.”
Grace’s pure excitement(rather than fear) when realizing the blip-a is an alien spaceship
Rocky bringing up the panspermia theory to explain why astrophage, Eridians, and Earth life have similar cellular structures
(Honestly, literally every time Grace and Rocky started talking evolution theories.)
Stratt being a history major
“I am emperor comatose, bow before me.”
Marisa the college friend
Grace being the one to name astrophage
Grace thinking he’s going to die from starvation when he turns around to save Rocky
Rocky telling Grace that Sol has returned to full luminosity + “Your face is leaking! I haven’t seen that in a long-ass time!”
