Loved it so much, I’ve watched it 3 times!!!

We rented Project Hail Mary last night. I haven’t read the book yet, so don’t know how they compare.

I really enjoyed it. Loved the story and the message. Heartwarming, funny, suspenseful and visually appealing. Movie is long, but kept me entertained.

Ryan Gosling did a fantastic job.
Space still and will always scare the s**t out of me. :upside_down_face:

I listened to the book before I saw the movie…I’m a little bit of a nerd, so the extra science stuff in the book that they needed to leave out of the movie was really interesting to me. But I agree that Gosling was good! Also loved Sandra Hüller, she’s an amazing actress.

Does anyone else here collect physical media?

Cds, vinyl. Vhs, dvd, bluray, 4k?

More to the point. If there’s enough of us I could start a thread for that. Or we use this one? Id just like a place to share what I have picked up recently as well as share collection photos.

Thoughts?

I’ve actually considered a Blu-Ray collection. I’m a big gamer but everything I own is digital. I’ve seen some collections of physical games and blu rays and they look great! Especially special editions. And they are quite cheap nowadays too from second hand shops :+1:

I stopped all streaming services.

Because I wanted to build a collection. We weren’t using them much. And now I have a hobby I share with my wife.

New bluray can still be $20+ here which can add up 2nd hand isnt to bad.

That’s awesome you and your wife have a hobby together :blush: do you both have a favourite genre of movie?

Second hand here you can get them for about Ā£1-Ā£5 which really isn’t bad :ok_hand:

For me its cult classics. 90s and 2000s era.

Our collection is quite eclectic. We share some movie taste but yet have very different taste as well definitely makes for interesting movie nights

Working through our collection movie by movie. One movie per alphabetical order.

Currently today

Grease

I think as i get older the more i enjoy this film for nostalgic reasons. Its one of my wife’s favorites. I needed background noise while I restacked the collection today.

Hitchikers guide to the galaxy

absolutely love this movie, its aged well. Set design to story this movie is super fun the whole way through.

We are onto independence day. You should. Im going to start a new thread for physical media in the next few days to show off collections and new pick ups. I like to see what people’s taste in movies is.

If you can handle a bit of song and dance as well as a soppy love story youll be ok.

To me at this point its a historic bit of cinema in the likes of if you are a movie person you should see it at least once. A bit like star wars imo.

Ill give anything a go once and it’ll land on my shelf if I love it enough

HE MAN meets the modern age. Dare I say a bit politically correct. But super enjoyable.

10/10 everything this movie should be!

my brother and I saw this today in a empty theater, was just us. Took us back to being kids on a saturday morning. Character design was super cool. Heaps of adult jokes that’ll go over the kids heads.
