Automata Fun Facts

The word automaton comes from the Greek word automatos, meaning self-acting or self-moving, and ancient civilizations built mechanical devices that could perform simple tasks, like a toy bird that could flap its wings.
In the 18th century, Swiss inventor Jacques de Vaucanson created a life-sized mechanical duck that could eat, drink, and digest food, producing excrement, which amazed audiences and showcased advanced automata technology of that era.

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie

Watched this in theaters. Was a fun popcorn movie. I didn't like it as much as the first movie though. The nostalgia moments are a lot of fun for me, but the first movie had a ton of those too.

Alita: Battle Angel

I need to rewatch this and see if it moves from a like to a favorite for me. I forget about it, see it mentioned, and remember that it was way better than I thought it was going to be. This is a great one to watch if you haven't yet.

Project Hail Mary (Movie)

Finally got to see this in theaters - it's a lovely movie. One of the higher quality family-friendly sci fi movies in a LONG time. The part I liked least about the book was the humor - movie was the same. Which speaks to how good the adaptation was.
