Noumas 05/19/23 4:17:58 PM #1:	Not a sequel to Interstellar lol. This movie is hilarious, its like they took that scene in interstellar with Matt Damon and made an entire movie around it, while making him come across as the good guy this time around compared to what happens in interstellar. And then you add Jessica Chastain as well, and the fact that this movie came out right after interstellar too. Crazy. Pretty good movie. Apparently it's hard sci-fi? I googled hard sci-fi and the search results included the book version of this. <cite>Noumas posted [p:973580125] in Just watch... [t:80449314]...</cite> <quote>Not a sequel to Interstellar lol.

bigblu89 05/19/23 4:34:25 PM #7:	I LOVE the book, read it like 3-4 times, and I remember I was in the movie theatre, can't remember what it was going to see, but the previews started and they played a preview for this. I didn't know they were making it into a movie, and as the trailer played and it clicked with me that it was a movie version of The Martian, I literally shouted "OH SHIT! THIS IS THE MARTIAN!!!" My wife still likes to make fun of me for that moment. I love the movie as well, but I wasn't thrilled with the way the ~~"rescue"~~ played out at the end. Was a little too Hollywood for my liking. In the book, they kinda ~~just go back and grab him.~~ --- It takes zero effort to be a good person. <cite>bigblu89 posted [p:973580450] in Just watch...
