I loved the book so much! I was worried I’d be let down by the movie, but it was really excellent. I jotted some notes down as I watched and made note of nearly all the same things you did! Cameron’s arrival felt so abrupt. We see him and them BAM he’s at the aquarium. I’m glad some more of the backstory was filled in a long the way. I understand why certain parts had to be cut/reworked to be better on the screen, but I do wish we got a little more of Cameron’s story. Although if I hadn’t read the book, I don’t think I’d miss it.

I haven’t watched the Remarkably Bright Creatures adaptation yet—honestly it’s not really a genre I usually go for but I really enjoyed reading this. It was still really interesting to see your thoughts, especially how you felt about the changes they made in the adaptation.

Ahhh Remarkably Bright Creatures is one of my favourite newer books and I'm so excited to watch this. I'm glad you thought the movie lived up to the book, even with the missing bits!
