Which sci-fi titles (movies, books) do you consider comforting, cozy, something you come back to from time to time? For me, I guess it is The Matrix. Still holds up to this day, gets better with every re-watch, and gives me a sense of peace when I need it.
The Martian. Both the book and the movie
Same author (Andy Weir), different book: "Project Hail Mary". Almost a spiritual successor to "The Martian" and gives you cozy feels AF.
Loved it it's much more "fantastic", ie mind inspiring. Also there's gonna be a movie!
I loved the book. Tried enjoying the movie three times, I think, then finally realized that the book is way better.
