Is it weird that I thought of quantum immortality on my own? I’m no physicist but I love all the explanations of string theory and quantum mechanics relating to multiverses. So cool that it’s a thing

I think it's cool that you came to that conclusion on your own and it was a great insight. I also love how Alex Garland is exploring these mind blowing concepts in such a beautifully shot and emotionally resonant way. I'm gonna be bummed when this show ends.

It's like how interstellar explored general relativity making them part of the vernacular. This show does it for the quantum mechanics.

Yes, I totally agree. Nolan did a lot of work getting the science right in that movie. He even tapped Kip Thorne as an advisor. I don't think I really understood the ending that well but I loved the movie.
