I made a Rocky Terrarium!

While watching the film I thought Rocky’s ball looked a lot like an empty terrarium at home and knew I had to make my own Rocky to go inside it. I sculpted him out of polymer clay after making an armature with foil and craft wire. Baked & painted. Had never sculpted anything before but I think it turned out great! What think question?

This Part made me CRY and I was surprised that it did

I've see a lot of people say they cried in this movie and I do see why the betrayal scene was one part and the rocky almost dying scene was another part I could see why people would cry for . But for me it was a surprised that I had jerked a tear especially for this scene just the awe of it and me imagining seeing it on the big screen(I've unfortunatel saw it on insta).But Never would I imagine crying for this scene and I still could not place why I had in the first place ,Nonetheless I had and I am Happy for it

I watched the movie first, thought Rocky was the alien pet. After reading the book… I think Grace is.

I watched the movie first, thought Rocky was the alien pet. After reading the book… I think Grace is.

Went into the movie knowing almost nothing and honestly, Rocky immediately felt like this adorable, slightly mysterious “alien companion.” The way he interacts, the sounds, the whole dynamic — it kind of gave me “smart pet” vibes, even though I knew that’s probably oversimplifying him.

But I liked the story enough that I picked up the book right after. Just finished it today.

And now I feel like I completely misread that dynamic.

In the book, Rocky comes across as way more composed, logical, and… honestly, kind of wiser than I expected. He feels like an equal — or even the more grounded one in a lot of situations. There’s a calmness to him that didn’t hit me the same way in the movie.

Which is why the whole “alien pet” feeling kind of flipped for me.

Curious if anyone else had that shift going from movie → book? Or did you read it the same way from the start?

Wooden model of hail mary that i made for my girlfriend. What do you think?

​

A few days ago I watched the movie with my girlfriend and we liked it so much that I decided to make her a model of the spaceship that appears in the movie. Even though it's not my main subject when it comes to my models, I had a lot of fun making it.

I love this movie so much and the design of the ship and the rocky is excellent

Mechanism of centrifuge is not perfectly reproduced, mainly because we have gravity on Earth lol, but it works to some extent and allows to set the ship in both gravity-by-acceleration and gravity-by-rotation modes.

Additionaly i will post a video showing it work

Tell me what you think about this model?

Possibly my favourite movie of all time!!!

Went into the movie completely blind, didn’t see a single trailer or know anything about the book. I just saw the description and Ryan Gosling and booked some tickets. Really wasn’t expecting too much.

Oh my god. What a pleasant surprise seeing Rocky pop out was. Just WOW. I’ve seen a lot of movies and I’m usually pretty harsh on my ratings. One of very very few 10/10 movies I’ve ever watched. Hardly any filler. One of the best soundtracks in a while. Amazing acting. How the directors made a grown man tear up over a sentient rock is something special. It’s been two days and I’m still contemplating it. Got Sign of The Times on repeat too. 100% going to watch it again in cinema, this time in IMAX. It made me feel so much, think about life, appreciate my loved ones more. Think this goes into a universal top 10 absolutely must-see movies in your life. Amaze amaze amaze.

Additional video showing how my wooden model of hail mary works.

This is an additional post to my post where I show photos, so I invite you to see it too, I just wanted to show a video of the crew cabin changing to centrifuge configuration.

Centrifuge mode isn't perfect and works a bit more like the one in the book version because in the movie there's also a ring on the whole part that rotates an additional 90 degrees, so this protruding part of the crew cabine in the middle, is also on the side and not at the bottom. It's a bit hard to describe but I hope someone understands it lol. Plus, everything is on cables and in gravity it's a bit hard to do, so I used wires and the whole thing is connected to the rest of the ship with a magnet so that in gravity due to acceleration mode the crew cabin does not tilt to side. I mean the most important thing is that it can rotate lol

Artemis astronauts mention Project Hail Mary!

In the Canadian media event, Jeremy was talking about PHM and how they all loved the movie, they watched it whilst in quarantine pre-launch. It was a bit of a buzz to listen to! Hopefully someone can find a recording of the interview, it only just finished.
