The jokes don't need to be good they need to provide just enough levity to keep it going until the film starts in earnest.
As I understand it the book is pretty bad though the movie did a lot of heavy lifting cleaning up the dialogue

>>220479760
> scientist uses a touchscreen with gloves on, then suddenly has bare hands in the next shot, then gloves again like nothing happened

> character gets hit in the head and is visibly bleeding, but a few scenes later the wound has completely disappeared without explanation

> guy spots the comet while driving with a phone clearly mounted in his car, then later pulls another phone from his pocket as if he has two identical ones

> couple lying on the roof watching the sky, but the guy’s arm position keeps changing between cuts with no continuity

> scene is supposed to take place in Michigan, yet a visible street sign in the background clearly says Massachusetts

> observatory scene shows astronomers watching the sky with all interior lights on, which would realistically ruin visibility

> comet passes very close to Jupiter but shows no sign of being affected by its massive gravity

> subway scene switches station names between shots, implying inconsistent filming locations

> character is talking while eating pie but the mouth movements don’t sync properly with the dialogue

the martian is gay too and anyone who likes either is a massive faggot

The issue isn't the comedy it's the reddit science

careful jannies don't like it when you make fun of their favorite movie

It's really stupid to double cross a person and force them to go on a suicide mission against their will like you are creating a wild card where he might decide to do nothing out of spite. The better idea is to convince him to do it

>>220480106
that's why it's called a "hail mary"

>>220480117
No the hail mary comes from the low % chance of success regardless who they send

>this is an important mission that needs a top tier scientist, engineer and pilot
>lol never mind the school teacher who never went to space that had no training at all for this can do all 3 jobs just fine
stupid movie for stupid people

>>220480106
the point is that he's a coward but friendship makes him brave

Are you even human?

As a White man I would want to swallow my pride and cooperate with my fate for the good of humanity.

But realistically I would be feeding them falsified data/reports with the intent of causing as much monetary/human life loss as possible before they caught on and remotely activated the onboard cyanide gas system. Fuck them niggas.

OP here. Movie got a LOT better at the 30 minute mark or so and became a really good movie, and the cringe humor took a step back (though still stayed). Ending was weird, too. Overall something like an 8/10, if Interstellar is a 9/10.

This is probably the best first contact movie Hollywood has made. Also, is it one of the first movies to incorporate AI in the modern day sense of the word, what with the different TTS sounds that were generated for Rocky's voice?

I didnt mind the comedy. I think goose has a way better sense of comedy than Damon and it feels like a lot of his personality bleeds through to the character. Even if youre not outright laughing at everything Goose's character is likeable and isnt annoying or overly quirky for the sake of it. I think the film balances the comedy/levity quite well

>>220483911
Maybe I'll like it more on rewatch. I was just cringing too much and making the jim halpert face at myself in the mirror way too much that I began marking on the back of a napkin how many times I did it- 17. I couldn't believe it. I literally could not conceive the fact that I had experienced such awkwardness that many times in such a short period.

Don't Look Up maybe?

There was never a point where you felt the severity of failing or any risk. It was cornball movie.

I was disappointed by the lack of baby yeed.

i watched it; it took me 3 tries but i finally watched it. This is a kids movie through and through. Not only that but a dorky kids movie that even 12 year old me would have ridiculed. It's harsh but I think if you are an adult and you connect with this movie you are in some way emotionally stunted or the past 10 years of cinema has set the bar so low that even project hail mary manages to be captivating

>>220487318
Or you're just a broken person.

I'm not afraid to say it. I cried from this movie. It gave me a sense of wonder and emotion that I haven't felt in years.

>>220479760
Interstellar already exists and did it best. Fuck off with this brainwashing slop

Project Hail Mary feels like a movie scientifically engineered to maximize audience excitement about space, math, and emotionally damaged smart people solving impossible problems under extreme pressure. The film runs almost entirely on “what if competence was actually cool?” energy, turning astrophysics and crisis management into something that somehow feels like an action sport.

Ryan Gosling delivers the perfect performance for this kind of story: exhausted, confused, sarcastic, and slowly unraveling while trying to save humanity with equations and panic. The movie constantly balances wonder and existential dread, reminding viewers that space is both breathtakingly beautiful and completely indifferent to human survival.

What makes Project Hail Mary work is its absolute faith in science and cooperation. Instead of characters making obviously stupid decisions for drama, the tension mostly comes from intelligent people desperately trying to out—think catastrophe. It occasionally slips into “science wish fulfillment” territory where every character sounds like a genius giving TED Talks during emergencies, but the movie is so sincere and emotionally efficient that it’s hard not to get pulled in.

Overall, it’s an extremely optimized cinematic experience designed to make audiences feel hopeful about humanity while also fearing the infinite horrors of space. Very effective human entertainment product.

why did you have chatgpt write this for you?

I'd rate it 7/10. Would be 9/10 if they took the gen x humour out.
>HAHA LE FIST MY BUMP SO FUNNY GET IT BECAUSE IT'S LIKE FISTING LMAO
Way to ruin a good scene, you fucking retards.

>>220480106
is really stupid that the movie pretends they can't send more than 3 people
that they don't send redundancies
that they send 3 people but 2 of them were useless so why send them in the first place
they could have sent people and train them during the 12 years of flight 100 times over
that they can't make more fuel
that he needs just as much fuel to come back instead of accelerating the ship to a lesser fraction of light and just come back some decades later
that he just happens to arrive in tau ceti at the same time as the other ship
that he just arrives at the right angle and distance to notice the other ship against the space rainbow

>>220479760
You could've known it was slop if you tried reading the book. The protagonist just swears a lot, like elementary grade swearing for no reason.

Also the fact that reddit hailed it as a great book.

>>220480106
that's what the amnesia drug is for. He would remember the betrayal last, and by that point he would be too invested to sabotage the whole thing.

>>220488041
>that they don't send redundancies
They do have seconds, both the scientists were in the lab when it exploded
>that they send 3 people but 2 of them were useless so why send them in the first place
goose has to spend a bunch of time learning to pilot the ship, and he gets saved by rocky being an engineer a couple times, the jobs the other two astronauts were meant to do.
>they could have sent people and train them during the 12 years of flight 100 times over
after the launch
by the time goose's probe gets back home, 25%-50% of people are already dead, dumping even more resources into doing more haily marys would only make that worse on the hope that if the first guys didn't figure it out maybe the second ones will, just in time to save even less people since population would just be ramping up
>that they can't make more fuel
the entire sahara desert gets paved over to make fuel, the doubling thing stops working at a certain scale because of the size requirements or something iirc
>that he needs just as much fuel to come back instead of accelerating the ship to a lesser fraction of light and just come back some decades later
a measly few decades
>that he just happens to arrive in tau ceti at the same time as the other ship
iirc rocky was there for a few years already
>that he just arrives at the right angle and distance to notice the other ship against the space rainbow
rocky noticed him first iirc, since he was shining a big infrared flashlight at the system for quite some time as he slowed to arrive

>>220480106
Either he goes in the mission or everyone on earth dies.

no they didn't put it in the movie because they're cowards, just like they left out nuking the ice caps

People die in it. It's not a kid's movie.

nothing gruesome or crazy just some floating dead bodies iirc

Rocky was already there for about fifty years.

>>220488207
>iirc rocky was there for a few years already
Rocky was there for 46 years.

>>220488285
>was that in the movie? fuck, sounds cool
No, they also nuke Antartica. Almost everything about Earth reacting to the crisis is ignored in the film.

>>220488511
>train them on the ship during the flight
Having so few people in such a restricted environment for a decade is a huge risk, that's why they go into a coma.

The movie was shit because it focused too much on Tau Ceti and Rocky. The book has a much better balance.

>>220479760

That's a pretty damn big IF.
So it's closer to a 5/6 out of 10?
