I rewatched The Martian and totally forgot how optimistic this movie is about technology, America, and international relations sadness-abysmal

when this movie came out in 2015 my little liberal ass loved it. i still believed in a future.

we dont even have bazinga mars nerds anymore just different flavors of “i wont eat the bugs” all clawing at each other to climb out of a pit rapidly filling with water

xi i will scrub toilets please give me a K visa agony-soviet

      Rocky was the only good character IMO, mostly because he’s the one character whose motives you dont immediately know when they’re introduced.

      Two whole pages intrigue until he plays lapdog to the protagonist. Good while it lasted
