Sci-Fi Discussion: Project Hail Mary
Details
Do you like science fiction? Join the Jefferson Humanists Sci Fi Discussion Group where we discuss sci-fi short stories, novellas and movies. We typically meet by Zoom on the 4th Thursday of each month and occasionally meet in-person to watch sci-fi movies.

In March, we will have a change of pace and go to see a movie together. Project Hail Mary is a movie directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, based on the bestselling book by Andy Weir, and stars Ryan Gosling.
We will plan to go see 12:15 pm showing of the movie on Sunday, March 29th, at the Harkins Theater in Arvada. Everyone who RSVPs will get an email or Meetup message with the seat numbers of your hosts so you can get seats in the same row or nearby
After the show, we will go to the nearby Hilton Garden Inn to have a drink and nibbles and discuss the movie. (If you've read the book, we can compare the book to the movie.)
About the Movie
Astronaut Ryland Grace (Ryan Gosling) awakens on a spacecraft with no memory of himself or his mission. He deduces he is the sole survivor of a crew sent to the Tau Ceti system to save Earth from disaster. To do so, Grace must rely on his vast array of scientific knowledge, sheer ingenuity, and human will, but he learns he is not alone.
RSVP to this Meetup or email SciFi@jeffersonhumanists.org. Only those who RSVP will receive the seat information for where we will be in the theater. It will also help us to reserve enough seats at the Hilton Garden Inn for our after movie discussion
