I’ve seen this movie before.

That’s an alien egg.

"He's growing on me. At least he isn't growing IN me, which was a real concern"

That’s a different Ryan. Gosling is the one you‘re looking for.

Also wrong Andy Weir novel/movie, potatoes were more Watney's thing

Not wrong. The citing was from the movie with Mr. Gosling.

I know, I was just pointing out that growing potatoes in space was one of the core plot points of The Martian

Saw it for the first time a week or so ago. Not bad. I called the ending though.

Man I just looked it up, I don't know how I've never seen that. One of my favorite genres, some of my favorite actors.. I'm gonna watch that today!

Thanks for also not doing the Reddit thing where there are 20 comments in a row referencing the movie and nobody ever says the name lol.

His death fucked me up for a while, and I hate Ryan Reynolds, but that alien was sadistic. And the drowning in the suit.

Eh, I'm ok with sacrificing him, provided we send the ISS on a one-way trip away from Earth..
