There's a little inside joke they made referring to the meeting by the Lord Of The Rings because the guy at NASA who decided to tell the crew that Watney was still alive is the same guy who plays Boromir from LOTR
I love seeing movies like this reviewed by people of all walks. You two see this movie with different eyes than I do, so I find it interesting to see reactions like this. What I like to see is even though it's a movie, you get behind the idea of rescue, feel the tension and feel joy at the end.
The self-surgery scene is brutal but I think it was inspired by the Russian doctor working in Antarctica who suffered an appendicitis in the polar winter and had to perform his own appendectomy.
Space is the one thing countries actually help each other with, so China helping out isn't super unrealistic. Similar to how, even today, it's borderline unthinkable for a ship to not aid another ship in distress.
@gotreactions When there's no other human being within stopping you from dying cold afraid and alone distance, you tend to be able to get along fairly well. Wonder if Russians are still sneaking in Liquor.
Also let's be EXTREMELY candid here. Politically China would do it in a heartbeat because if a Chinese spacecraft had to be used to save American astronauts its the ultimate propaganda. Any country including America would take advantage of this type of situation for the same benefit
The novel (by Andy Weir, published in 2011) was just as humour-filled as this movie, perhaps even more so. But Ridley Scott did a great job of translating Weir's humour to the screen.
The 2015 movie The Martian was filmed in Jordan and Hungary: Wadi Rum, Jordan: The desert landscapes of Wadi Rum, also known as the Valley of the Moon, were used for many of the external scenes on Mars. The desert's striking rock formations and otherworldly landscape have made it a popular filming location for space-related movies. Korda Studios, Etyek, Hungary: The interior scenes were filmed at Korda Studios, which has one of the world's largest sound stages. The Balna Events Centre, also known as the Budapest Whale, was used to represent the NASA complex. Budaörs Airport and Budapest Ferihegy International Airport, Budapest, Hungary: These airports were used for filming.
JPL is the Jet Propulsion Labratory in California. Pretty much the skunk works of NASA. They do the real breakthrough work but not the final products that's for NASA
U guys should react to “shotcaller” and “felon” two of the most realistic movies ever made regarding california prison. Both films about law abiding citizens ending up in california prison and having to survive
58:00 I've been saying this everywhere I can lately, since it's a Hollywood trope that I find especially pernicious. But, you don't "blow up" in hard vacuum or near-vacuum exposure (or "implode" like they say in this movie, for some reason). That's an invention of Hollywood, as is the idea that you freeze, or your eyes pop, or whatever. You _can't_ freeze, liquid boiling points get much lower in low pressure, so, the surface moisture on your skin and clothes will immediately boil away in your own body heat (in-fact, people exposed have reported feeling the saliva on their tongue boiling away). The human body retains its pressure very well, so, the only tissues affected are the surface level soft tissues. So, you puff up a fair amount, like getting extreme suction all over your body. It's not _too_ extreme, but it _is_ unpleasant, and it apparently _really_ hurts. The good news is, if you get back into normal pressure, the swelling will go down in a few hours, with no lasting effects. What ends you will be a brain embolism before you ever have a chance to suffocate, thanks to the low pressure. The air will be _pulled_ out of your lungs immediately upon exposure, so, holding your breath is a _very_ bad idea. In the end, you'll have about 45-to-60 seconds of usable consciousness, and be dead in about 90-to-120 seconds. The "blow up" idea comes from explosive decompression, which only happens with catastrophic pressure changes. A one Earth atmosphere drop, even instantly, would never do that. It _has_ happened before, though.... With deep sea diving tech. Decompression chambers. Look up the "Byford Dolphin incident" if you want to have some nightmares. As for Mars, it has a very thin atmosphere, but there is some "air," it's just mostly carbon dioxide, and there isn't much of it. That's why the sky has color (Mars' sky is a dull orangey butterscotch on a typical sol). If there was no air, it would be black, like space, since there would be no particles to scatter the yellow light from the sun, which is where sky color comes from (Rayleigh scattering, with the color dependent on the density of the atmosphere, the sun's angle, the air's composition, and the color of the local star or stars).
In the 1970's there were joint American and Soviet Russian space missions and the things were a lot geopoliticalitally tense in those days if was the cold war. They were known as the Apollo/Soyez missions.
You seeing it, also a fact Russian surgeon, Leonid Rogozov, got appendicitis while on an Antarctic mission - he had to operate on himself and without the painkillers so he could know if damage anything as anyone else was too far to get to him to do it for him
I'd go to Mars, even if it was a one way trip. EDIT: We're absolutely able to get people to Mars at this point. Surviving for any length of time, let alone coming _back,_ that's the problem.
In reality a storm on Mars is relative harmless compared to storms earth, because the atmosphere is quite thin. But there are a bunch of actual dangers not included in the movie. Still a nice movie of course.
The author of the book this movie is based on was a computer programmer for Sandia National Labs and his parents worked there in the past as well. You can tell he has a first hand perspective of the political maneuvering of large government agencies. Great Reaction! The Pc Game Kerbal Space Program does a good job of relating the physics of orbital mechanics while making it fun.
Not enough people pick up the fact that it is litterally Boromir (Lord of the Rings) saying what & why there's the Secret Meeting in Rivendalle Stuff. ("How do you'll all know that ?") A big lol.
That's the joke behind the modern use of the word "colonist". If you had to clear out the previous tenants first, you're not a colonist, you're a conqueror. The conquerors of the Americas used the wrong word on purpose to deny their own culpability. Modern language-users think they're being clever, using the word colonist to drum up media attention where no one would blink an eye if they went around moralizing on how bad being a conqueror is. (Everybody has agreed with that for centuries already.) Instead they're only validating the original linguistic lie propagated by the conquerors.
Long time ago the oceans were our seemingly impossible frontiers, then we managed to cross them (but you still end up in a place with breathable air). Space is something else... there were few ppl on the Moon, but putting ppl on another planet (especially in our solar system), that's over 100x further than the Moon? I hope I will see it in my lifetime, but it seems insane even with modern technology. No way to communicate instantly... it will be almost like the early days of sea travel in some way.
i was thinking this looks like a ridley scott movie becauae i forgot for a second; someone recommended district 9... a very mature and compelling sci fi film
59:58 Very simply said, there is a very tiny smidget of atmosphere on Mars (compared to Earth), but nothing you could breath even if you compressed it. It is quite tiny compared to Earth and moreover, Mars has basically no magnetic field (it used to have one supposedly). Something bad happened to that planet around the time life was emerging on Earth (maybe some random asteroid?).
This movie does attempt to be scientifically accurate (or at least plausible) in most respects. With one major problem: the storm that sets the entire plot in motion be almost knocking over their lander would be impossible. Mars does get storms, but its atmosphere is too thin for storms of that ferocity. That was basically a hurricane force storm, but Mars strongest possible storm would be less than half that level of windspeed. Mars does get dust storms though which can be so large they can be seen from earth through telescopes. Sometimes even up to a global scale.
Actors can make the grapefruit diet to loose a lot of weight in few weeks to fit a role. It consists in 4 meals a day with half of a grapefruit every meal. Since the grapefruit is very heavy, you eat half the food you usually eat and loose muscolar tone and fat very fast. It's not a good diet though, because once you stop it you gain double the weight you've lost.
the stupidest thing about this movie is that the emergency mission coming back from mars would not have enough delta V to turn around, go back to mars, make a rescue, and then make it back to earth. never, ever, ever, going to happen. it's stupid in fact.
Mars is much smaller than Earth, so the gravity is much less. That is how he was able to move 400kg. It weights 400kg on Earth and during acceleration, not on Mars while sitting still. Also, there is an atmosphere on Mars, but it is very thin, like the same thinness as on Earth at the height that jetliners fly, higher than Mt. Everest. Also, there's essentially no oxygen on Mars. That's why the tarp on the front of the spaceship was ok, there atmosphere being so thin.
Mars has around 38% of Earth's gravity, so 100kg (weight) on Earth would weigh 38kg on Mars. So something weighing 400kg on Earth would weigh 152kg on Mars. Still heavy as hell, but not exactly impossible to move.
So glad you're getting back to GoT, but i hope you are going to continue with the office until season 6. At the same time... you do have a lot of movies yet to be watched, if you switched out an episode every other week of the Office with a Marvel movie, i would totally understand ...They are BOTH good, so you can't lose really. Thanks again for your reactions!!!~ ♡°˖✧◝☆
You cant just stick plants in martian soil .. earth soil has a lot of bacteria and funguses and whatnot that make plants work. It wouldnt work on mars at all .. thus, the poo :)

The irony is, I wouldn't even know the parts you censored existed, if you didn't censor them. Censoring doesn't hide anything, it magnifies it.

This is my favorite movie. I didn't think you guys would react to it so soon. It really made my day. This was a very fun reaction.

There are Russians and Americans on the space station now.

@@LiteralCrimeRave Surely Vodka is a provided supply. I'd want some. :)

Also Antarctica, all the countries signed a treaty in like 1959 and no one has broken it somehow.
The surprising thing about this movie is the sense of humor and comic relief it has.
And the soundtrack.
The novel (by Andy Weir, published in 2011) was just as humour-filled as this movie, perhaps even more so. But Ridley Scott did a great job of translating Weir's humour to the screen.
I love this movie. One of my top 50 favorites of the thousands of movies I've seen.
I love your reactions. 😂

Great reaction as always. Do The Goonies next. PLeASE.
In actuality, the Martian atmosphere is so thin, that that storm would have done absolutely nothing.
brother 2- you drove me nuts talking ded the whole way through - shhhhh i enjoyed watching
Can easily watch just movie if not want interruption

Shotcaller is a surprisingly good movie.

The 'Irish Guy' is Ned Stark. And for once he doesn't lose his head. LOL Well, I guess he did have that forced resignation.
In a movie where no one dies, Sean Bean's character still gets his career killed in a heroic act of self-sacrifice.
The US Government has spent entirely too much money Saving Private Mark Damon. :)

@@lassesipila6418 It is just a way to jab at White people. The same people complaining are usually silent about Islamic or Asian conquests.
Ironic.. and now.. Iconic too XD
By the way it was filmed in Hungary (interior scenes) and Wadi Rum, Jordan (planet)
love this movie

Mars may look like the sahara .. but it averages something like -80C. Its somewhat colder than Antarctica.
Guy's, he was able to push 400 kilograms on his back due to space gravity, it would weigh way less in 0 gravity.
Well it's not 0 on Mars, but it would be much lighter. 150 kilos or so? Still pretty heavy though now that I think of it.
Mars is much smaller than Earth, so the gravity is much less. That is how he was able to move 400kg. It weights 400kg on Earth and during acceleration, not on Mars while sitting still. Also, there is an atmosphere on Mars, but it is very thin, like the same thinness as on Earth at the height that jetliners fly, higher than Mt. Everest. Also, there's essentially no oxygen on Mars.

Y’all should check out the movie “Clue.” It’s very funny imo.
lifting 400kg on mars .. would only feel like about 135 kg :)

Have you guys seen Alien yet? Same director just 36 years later.
If you like survival there is a movie called 127 Hours
mars' atmosphere doesn't have the mass to have storms of this nature.
takes five extremely complicated layers off but has to use scissors to cut off the tee shirt. about as accurate as the rest of the effing movie is.
Check out Bourne movies with Matt Damon.
Could you guys please watch The Game (1997), it´s from the director of Fight Club, a movie you enjoyed very much.
You cant just stick plants in martian soil .. earth soil has a lot of bacteria and funguses and whatnot that make plants work. It wouldnt work on mars at all .. thus, the poo :)
gravity is not the same. its about 1/3rd earth normal.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨💫☑️
