Movie Review: Iron Lung
Jun. 12th, 2026 01:00 amAs promised since my review of The Edge of Sleep, here is my review and thoughts on Markiplier's recently released movie, Iron Lung.
( This is not an expedition. It is an execution. )
And in a fascinating discovery, fandom has been crossing over Iron Lung and Project Hail Mary, as both stories shockingly share many similarities, with the contrast being mainly in tone and genre -- one being more optimistic despite the dire situation while the other being nihilistic in a horrifyingly bleak situation with only a sliver of hope being possible. Fandom crossovers are a rare breed these days among certain fandom spaces so seeing this emerge has been an utter delight. Simon and Ryland Grace are also a pairing that came out of this, as well.
