And the book explains a lot more. Like why the hell did Watney do the whole balloon thing to his crawler. And much more dry humour from Watney. Awesome book. Even better than the movie.
Quiwi Lin Lisolet Yeah! Another thing the book answers that the movie doesn't is why Watney knows all the mechanical engineering stuff as well as botany.
Love how Mark just wanted to get off Mars for himself.... The director & writers did not make Mark's reason for living about him wanting to get back to his beautiful wife and kids which is now a stereotype in a lot of films when someone is stranded or stationed far, far away from their family: "I just wanna get home to my wife/husband & kids." And then it cuts over to pictures/videos of a beautiful wife and kiddos....NOPE! Mark was just like, "I'm not gonna die on Mars." I want to live. Let's git it done! Respect
I think a good part of that is that Mark is a bachelor. In the book at least he mentions missing his mother on occasion or worrying about how his parents are grieving over his situation, but never mentions a wife or girlfriend.
The original author worked with the film crew pretty closely. Any and all liberties taken were for the sake of the medium. Books are different from movies, drastically. Andy Weir approved of the changes made. Doesn't surprise me he wouldn't approve of a 'wife/kids/family' addition.
My introduction to the book behind this film was from xkcd - "You know the scene in Apollo 13 where the guy says "we have to figure out how to connect this thing to this thing using this table full of parts or the astronauts will all die?".... "The Martian is for people who wish the whole movie had just been more of that scene."
That scene, the "square piece in a round hole" issue, is the reason why so many of the tools shown are interchangeable and consistent between the Hab and Rovers, etc. The real tools on the real life missions will look and function similarly as well.
They don't like potatoes? THEY'RE MONSTERS!!! God made potatoes in six days, and the world in one! Doesn't that mean anything to you!?!?!? It's funny because I'm non-religious... Right?
In the book a psychologist that interviews Mark before the mission is asked how Mark can handle all this and in the notes on Mark it's noticed that his sense of humor would be a benefit for any negative situation the crew came across. Legit the psychologist realized Marks off the wall sense of humor kept him sane through all of the shit he went through
I like the added attention to detail and continuity they had with the ketchup, he squeezed almost half the bottle in an earlier scene, and then later he says he ran out of ketchup 7 days ago, meaning he wasn't thinking about saving the ketchup up at all
The one thing I disagree with is that the book is where all the wit and utter brilliance comes from IMO. I liked the film a lot, and Damon's performance was fantastic but I think the author deserves a lot more of the credit for the brilliance of the story and characters.
If you can't give an adaptation credit for things it did well if the ideas first appeared in the original thing, every comic book movie just got a whole lot worse.
I actually set a rescue mission for jebidiah with an iron Man mod. So no save scumming, missed final landing by a few kilometers, drove to him for two sols. Turns out my lander doesn't have enough propulsion thrust to get out of duna Had given up hope but then I put the ship on docking mode and by some miracle, the rcs thrusters provided enough thrust for me to escape the atmosphere Reach safely Land near dessert base almost perfectly, jebidiah steps out in the ladder, drops down, glitches, stretches. Dies
The Martian did have a villain, and it wasn't the planet. It was Circumstance. Seriously. Good old fashioned bad luck, or more importantly to point out, shit that Can go wrong in very realistic ways. The supply probe? Blew up because of an unforeseen liquification of protein cubes. The hab module decompression? The hab was never meant to last as long as it had, so of course it was going to break down. The ascent problem? Hastily planned ascent numbers coupled with unpredictable Martian weather patterns and a complete lack of aerodynamic streamlining, as well as tie-downs being used in ways they were never intended to be used, but none of the above could really be avoided. If the weather isn't right for a launch here on Earth, you scrub. If the weather isn't right in this case, where you have a very narrow launch window? You launch anyway. This is one of the reasons that this movie shined. Not because of a lack of a villain, but because the villain was itself simply a series of unfortunate circumstances, all of which had a very calculable path for recovery. Not only did this allow them to stick to their repetitive message that problem solving starts when you start solving problems, but it also allowed them to fill the film with other potential failures. The water reclaimer staying functional, the air system doing the same, the radioisotope battery in his passenger seat, the rover, the other upright mav, the list goes on. There were dozens upon dozens of other chekov's guns that they could have played with, and they made sure the audience was thinking it too. We all started to see right away that this was a film about realistic circumstance being the villain, so we all started looking for the next circumstance, the next point of failure, all of it.
Circumstance is the primary villain of the real world. The Apollo 13 mission is a great example of that. I agree completely with the CinemaWins presenter; The Martian is so incredibly realistic that it feels like a true story at times.
honestly this is one of the few times I can say the movie and the book are equals. Both are stellar and the only difference is the depth it goes in. The movie is like the highlight reel of the book's adventure.
points out the awesomeness of referencing the Lord of the rings with Sean bean, doesn't mention them talking about iron man with Sebastian Stan, I'm fairly upset about this.
+CinemaWins you did, I particularly liked the line in the movie because I'm a big Marvel fan, I actually came across your channel today when I was recommended your Captain America video, it's now five in the morning and I should be asleep but I'm still watching these videos. 😂
One thing I REALLY liked about the Jeff Daniels character is that he had to have the "10,000 ft view". That little scene when he got off the phone with the Chinese space agency let him show he was rooting for Mark too. He couldn't afford the optimism of his subordinates, he had to be pragmatic.
This movie deserves someone making a time machine and going back to the oscars, it should've gotten atleast the one for CGI... Why? Almost all reflections and background on Mars was CGI but it doesn't feel like that in the slightest.
You forgot to mention how scientifically accurate this movie is, except the massive wind storm at the beginning Edit: Please equip your standard issue Hazardous Environmental Suit before diving into the replies.
@Brandon Fischer Mars lacks the atmosphere to create dust storms of such a magnitude that they would cause that much damage. The author mentioned it was the only thing in the book that isn't realistic because he needed an excuse for someone to be stranded on Mars and nothing else made sense. In the book, Mark drives right through another one and only notices because charging the rover starts to take longer. That is a much more accurate example of what being on the ground during a Martian dust storm would be like.
There needs to be more channels like yours!!! It's honestly great to see fancontent that's not ragging against, but actively praising the work and artistry that go into movies, without scrounging for something negative to say. There really is a lot of good in these works, but when people focus on just the negative, it makes them...negative, and the producers' YEARS of work reduced to a quip or pointing out an obvious suspension of will. Keep it up friend!!
few films take years though, the script can, but the actual filming process is only about 2-3 months , with postproduction being up to 6 months it's also extremely important to point out issues with a product or they'll never end up resolved
@@death299 That doesn't mean it isn't good to focus on the positive. IMO, it's better to acknowledge issues but focus on the good things, because it inspires people to improve rather than making them feel discouraged.
@@death299 yeah, but when everyone is pointing out the negative, you need someone to point at the positive. there is both good and bad things in everything, but if you only focus on the bad you never truly learn to do better. yeah everything about X film was shit, but the sound design was amazing! if you only focused on the bad parts of X film, and threw it out, then you lost on the lesson about great sound design. acknowledge the bad, seek to understand what went wrong, but focus on the good and soon you will become great.
Actually, he wasn't about to suffocate, that was a high oxygen warning. In space, it's not running out of oxygen that's the problem, it's getting rid of Carbon Dioxide. When the suits internal scrubbers saturated, it started bloodletting, a process that instead of cleaning and reusing the air, simply vents the air and backfills the pressure, usually with nitrogen, after his nitrogen tank ran out, the suit used the only gas it could to maintain the pressure, oxygen. At high levels, oxygen can be toxic. By the time he got up he was probably already in hyperoxia, and after some time the oxygen would have killed him. A bit of an ironic death to die of oxygen toxicitiy in space.
Jimmy eatsom Yep, Earth's atmosphere is only 21% oxygen, we don't really need all that much of it to survive, on top of that it's really easy to transport (An oxygen tank will carry up to about 3000 psi before it becomes volatile, which is 200 times more dense than our atmosphere, and that's pure oxygen, nitrogen is kept in a seperate tank). When a space suit breaches, everything it does is all about maintaining pressure, as that's the thing that's going to kill you faster.
Oh I knew all of that, (Oxygen being toxic and the atmospheric composition etc...) I just didn't realise the way the suits worked with backfilling and maintaining pressure. Quite cool.
+dang3race2 That's what the book claims, but at 1 atmo, 100% oxygen would cause irritation to the breathing passages and lungs after 12 hours of continuous exposure. It would take 1.6 atmos of pressure at 100% oxygen to reach cause nerve damage. In reality, we often give people pure oxygen, even going so far as to put them in rooms of pure oxygen (or, y'know, Apollo capsules) for medical reasons. It's kinda crazy that Andy Weir thought that pure oxygen could kill you when one of the most famous space accidents of all time, Apollo 1, was because there was a *fire* in an atmosphere of *pure oxygen*. If pure oxygen can kill you, why would they have designed Apollo 1 to have a pure oxygen atmosphere and redesigned it not because it killed you, but because it fed fire? Once again, high concentrations of oxygen *ARE* toxic *UNDER HIGH PRESSURE*, which is not the situation here. Mark was on Mars, not the bottom of the ocean. Makes a nice irony, just not good science. And that's why it wasn't mentioned in the movie. Ridley Scott made a number of adjustments to account for the handful of minor scientific inaccuracies in the book.
7:18 My literal conversation with friends after seeing this way "Dude what are you doing" *"I'm going to google the event this is based on."* "..." *"Oh god I'm dumb, aren't I?"* But repeated three times as I'd keep forgetting it's not a true story. Good storytelling might be TOO good.
SAME! It just feels so so realistic, it's insane! This is one of the many reasons why I love this movie so much. It's so convincingly done that you find yourself believing that it actually happened.
The thing I liked most was the Iron Man bit; especially cause in the book he’s considering it but says something like that it would only work in the movies
Also the thing about catching him while being tangled all around the tethers after doing said iron man bit. But what gets me the most is how in the book, he described their reunion, there wouldn't be high fives and hugging all around. He got cleaned and got immediate medical assistance.
Also in the book when he gets finally gets onto the Hermes, he says something along the lines of “if this was a movie people would be crowding around for a high five” instead he’s just taken to the medical room. In the film they of course have the high fives
Well someone in the satellite communication role probably would be a hired specialist with training and agrees, I will point out that most departments in NASA actually treat their interns like full members of the team. I have actually been extremely fortunate in interning at NASA, and my first day I walked in to find a massive folder on my desk with a current project needing done. And it wasn't them just dropping random work on me, they treated me like a member of the team too. So any movie that shows NASA actually paying attention to their interns is 100% accurate.
That moment when you realize a huge chunk of this cast is part of or will be in the MCU. You have Sebastian Stan, Michael Pena, Donald Glover, Benedict Wong, Chiwetel Ejiofor, all great actors! Marvel really knows how to cast their movies!
@@unflexian the line about the project Elrond being related to LotR. In the book his character has that line and they thought it was too on the nose so the writers were going give it to someone else but the cast wanted to keep it. Or at least that's what I read.
The pacing was absolutely phenomenal. I watched in theaters, and it flowed so well from beginning to end that I was completely absorbed the entire time with no sense of how long the movie actually was. There was only the story, and its fabulous presentation by the cast and crew.
Mission control 3 seconds later: *doing reasonable stuff to figure out what the hell is going on* 2 seconds after that: "and somebody find out who the hell rich purnell is!"
nice reference to Mars's two moons, not to mention the gods they were named after (Phobos and Deimos) were sons of Ares (with Aphrodite, according to the myths), the Greek equivalent of Mars, so they definitely knew what they were doing when they named the moons after said twin gods
I've asked this question before, but theoretically, is Mark Watney the richest man on Earth when he gets back? I mean, he spent a collective 12x the collective time allotted for the Ares mission on Mars. I'm pretty sure NASA pays by salary, but that doesn't mean that he wasn't payed royally for the extra time, possibly including a gigantic bonus for hazardous conditions. So, under a slightly inflated economy (one capable of supporting not only one mars mission, but five), and the base pay of astronauts already at a high number as it is... Then the possible final payout could be ASTRONOMICAL! Pun intended.
SonOfMyths73 Not likely. Since Watney was a mission specialist as opposed to a pilot etc...his salary would be significantly less. I imagine though once he returned, he would be heavily compensated.
I used to work at a movie theater and when this movie was playing, I remember being asked by a few customers if this was a true story. Of course I told them it wasn't but it reminded me of how to not expect everyone to know something just because I know it.
Who was the guy Iron Man tried to kill? The only actor I recognize from the MCU here is the one playing Martinez, the pilot, but he only plays that hilarious sidekick in Ant-Man, Louis.
Derek Lasker Yeah, it was his name. But seriously? I had no idea it was him! Why does it seem like almost every actor here was already in Marvel? We've got the actors playing Beth, Martinez and Beck! Somebody else?
What's really great is, that the movie is 98% science and only 2% fiction. Like said in the video, everything feels right in terms of technology in like 20-30 years. Nothing seems really out of place. It feels like we could do this in the near future if we really wanted to. In a talk Andy Weir said, there are basically only three compromises he had to make for the book/film, and that are the slim space suits, the (missing) radiation shielding and drastically exaggerating the effect of a storm on mars.
Sean Bean explains the Council of Elrond in The Martian. Sean Bean had the line "Still sharp" in the Fellowship of the Ring, which was between seasons 2 and 3 of Sharpe where he played Richard Sharpe.
Having Sean Bean reference Elrond in a different movie, when he himself was actual there.... sort of.... there.. HE WAS THERE! Was so fantastically satisfying. It brought a big smile to my face.
My only great annoyance was how they changed Venkat Kapoor from an indian, practicing hindu to Vincent Kapoor, an afro-american christian. That seems like such an unnecessary change and it quite frankly upset me simply because of it's unnecessarilyness. (That's now a word)
But they just changed his first name in the movie, how does that make him African-american christian? Or do you just mean they used an African-american actor?
+GiantSavage117 in the book Venkat says he's a practicing Hindu when he is asked if he believes in God. In the movie Vincent says his father was a Hindu and his mother a Baptist. In addition, Venkat was supposed to be indian, not afro-american. No hate on the actor though, he does a GREAT job. It's a small, but very noticable americanization.
I can’t believe that the moment where Mark is brought aboard didn’t receive a win. Matt Damon really nailed the emotional charge of that scene to a point where my mother and I legitimately cried tears of joy for a fake man finally having human contact after hundreds of days of solitude and escaping mars
I think he was stranded on Mars for 1.5 years actually. Let’s assume each Sol is one earth day. They were around Sol 30 when the accident happened and they didn’t realize he was still alive until Sol 50 When the finally rescued him, it was Sol 526. The numbers might be off a little bit but they are fairly close.
This must be one of my favourite movies of all times. Really amazing! Just... some wins in this video sounded more like sins. Actually, I can imagine cinemasins would have used EXACT THE SAME TEXT at some points, but adding a sin instead of a win.
Cinemasins gives sins for things that are actually positives all the time. Like how they sin Back to the Future left and right for foreshadowing even though that's one of the points of the movie and its screenplay has been praised for its use of foreshadowing.
@@pacoramirez7363 Yeah I've stopped watching CS a long time ago for that reason... they used to be clever and witty, now they just do low-quality trash-talk. CW is a million times better.
1) Mark Watney from the book kicks Matt Danom's behind up one side of Olympus Mons and down the other (and I'm a Damon fan); 2) not enough Venkat Kapoor or Bruce Ng; 3) Rich Purnell remained a steely eyed missile man. Thank you for another great video.
I enjoyed this movie immensely. My parents and siblings didn't, if I remember correctly. But I was watching this in the theater, on the edge of my seat. Only part I didn't like was the self surgery part, because I have some slight PTSD from a personal experience. Not nearly as bad as being skewered, as you put it, but it messed with me for a while.
Win 25: I believe she had a masters. She was complaining about it in the book lol. Like "I got a masters of such and such and I'm stuck doing this." Then... her life projected after this moment.
This movie is fantastic. Not just for the visuals, or the humor, or the way this feels so current to the times, but also the acting. The acting is amazing, and I can't help but gush at Matt Damon putting on the emotion for every scene he's in when something goes wrong and makes his job of survival a little harder and more miserable. They feel like legit reactions, and I love the moments of emotion he puts on. Like first being able to talk with NASA using Pathfinder to chat via text and he's getting a little choked up, then as he's waiting to launch into space at the end and he looks ready to start bawling his eyes out after hearing his crew's voices for the first time in so long. He breaks down more in the book when he gets Pathfinder working and they are able to point the camera at his question box, but still that's solid acting on Matt's part.
Your channel has made me fall in love with movies all over again and has made so much more aware of what makes a movie great how how much passion goes into most (not all) but most of the movies made! A few films I’d love to see you win are 1) creed 2) Hellboy either 1 or 2 3) Skyfall
I only just realised that there are 3 MCU actors in this movie + the honorary mention of Iron Man in the final rescue scene. I think that deserves a "yup!".
I'd love for you to revisit some of your older videos like this one and give them more of a breakdown. So much more to pick out in these movies than you gave time for 🤞
Ya, not a typical one. But current. Gotta throw those in every once in a while. The other option for this week was The Last Witch Hunter. Might come back to that one.
CinemaWins I felt so bad for the director of The Last Witch Hunter, because last year I went to New York Comic Con, and they were really going out with promoting this film, I remember seeing banner's, posters, I think it made it on the map guide and screening cover for Comic Con. Still after that promoting and the screening they had there, it didn't do well.
Definitely going to. I'll never understand why it didn't do better. I know the last act is a little different from the rest of the movie, but I still love.
Ya know, I've avoided this channel for years thinking it would be a cheap rip off of cinemasins, but you actually pay really good attention to merit worthy elements to these movies you review
1:01 My big issue with it is that shipwreck victims are expected by society to take notes on the ordeal and BRING THEM BACK so that society can benefit and be prepared for future such events. I was really digging the movie until the end when he leaves his "notebook" as a secret treasure for some future explorer, instead of being a scientist bringing material back to the lab for researchers to pore over.
He couldn't bring anything but himself back because of the weight. That's why he has to strip the MAV so that it's light enough to make the launch & rendezvous with Hermes. There was absolutely no tolerance for anything else. The book explains that much better. He actually collected samples on the way from Acidalia Planitia & left them for the next mission to find & bring back because they would have the weight allowance.
@@renchinnamunian9693 If he had used the toilet before leaving he could have brought it. That camera's contents are more important than he is for the future of space travel.
Isn't that wild though? A self-surgery scene that realistic wasn't enough to make it go past PG-13, but if they dropped one more f-bomb than it would have gotten a hard R.
In that case you should watch The Walking Dead. It's a great show! I swear there's no blood. Or stabbing. Or spilled guts. Or splattered brains. Or extreme gore. Or people being eaten alive.Yeah,none of that. It's the perfect tv show for you,I swear! Go and watch it now!
I gotta admit, the one time I'll say it, the book is levels beyond the movie. I was gripped by how well the author conveyed every single heart pounding and breath taking moment. As well as the countless amount of science explained in pretty elaborate detail.
If you liked this movie, read the book. The book is basically the movie, but with about twice as much shit ruining Watney's day.
Yeah wow that sounds really entertaining!
And a much better ending :P.
And the book explains a lot more. Like why the hell did Watney do the whole balloon thing to his crawler. And much more dry humour from Watney. Awesome book. Even better than the movie.
Quiwi Lin Lisolet Yeah! Another thing the book answers that the movie doesn't is why Watney knows all the mechanical engineering stuff as well as botany.
also you get to see what he wrote when NASA told him to watch his language^^
I found Sean Bean's forced resignation to be his symbolic character death. They couldn't actually kill him, but his career died.
Which is even funnier because his character doesn't even get fired in the book.
Sunil Permaul I like your thinking, good job!
Yeah I preferred the book version, he acts smug about he ‘Hermes mutany’ and never admits it was him
Damn dude... so Boromir is playing golf in the afterlife then?
He could save himself , but he couldnt save his career.. as the great Chancellor Palpatine said it *_I R O N I C_*
Love how Mark just wanted to get off Mars for himself....

Great point, I hadnt thought of that

"The Martian is for people who wish the whole movie had just been more of that scene."
Apollo 13 and The Martian are definitely my favorite Space movies, the fact the former inspired the later to a degree is just awesome
Yes, the Martian is basically a new version of that scene, and is a whole movie long.
@@UNSCPILOT I think you'd love the martian book, and andy weir's other two books about scientific shenanigans in space.
That scene, the "square piece in a round hole" issue, is the reason why so many of the tools shown are interchangeable and consistent between the Hab and Rovers, etc. The real tools on the real life missions will look and function similarly as well.
I asked my students in Taiwan if they wanted to go to Mars and they all said "No because it's too cold and I don't like potatoes."
Martin Phipps potato, potato, tomato, tomato.

The promos for the movie had those scenes.
Also, Bucky Barnes getting married to Sue Storm in the end is a win.
That kid would be awesome.
Genesis Rhapsodos Oh yes.
Kate Mara is not Sue Storm. Shut up! That movie in 2015 never happened. We don't talk about that movie.
There is a deleted scene where they more or less get put in the same room on the way back to mars so they can, well, you know.
Hell yeah that's a win
Strange as it may seem, there are people out there that wouldn't know a reference from LotR even if it turned up for a second breakfast.
Hahahaha! Genuinely laughing out loud at this one!
What's Elrond?
The guy who wrote Dianetics, Elrond Hubbard
I didn't get it. I haven't seen LotR.
Better clear some stuff of your schedule.

2:33 In the book, Mindy Park mentions she has a Master's Degree in mechanical engineering. They give her the job because she figures out Mark's alive.
The one thing I disagree with is that the book is where all the wit and utter brilliance comes from IMO. I liked the film a lot, and Damon's performance was fantastic but I think the author deserves a lot more of the credit for the brilliance of the story and characters.
true
Good point
Maybe so, but the director still had to time it so that it landed. Just imagine Michael Bay directing The Martian.
If you can't give an adaptation credit for things it did well if the ideas first appeared in the original thing, every comic book movie just got a whole lot worse.
Explosions everywhere, the storm was raining fire, and Sean Bean's head incinerates.
this movie makes me feel so bad about the kerbals I left on duna
They seem happy though!
I actually set a rescue mission for jebidiah with an iron Man mod. So no save scumming, missed final landing by a few kilometers, drove to him for two sols. Turns out my lander doesn't have enough propulsion thrust to get out of duna
Had given up hope but then I put the ship on docking mode and by some miracle, the rcs thrusters provided enough thrust for me to escape the atmosphere
Reach safely
Land near dessert base almost perfectly, jebidiah steps out in the ladder, drops down, glitches, stretches. Dies

Go rescue them. It's been 710.9404 sols.
Thank you so much for the 2am laughing fit
The Martian did have a villain, and it wasn't the planet. It was Circumstance.
Seriously. Good old fashioned bad luck, or more importantly to point out, shit that Can go wrong in very realistic ways. The supply probe? Blew up because of an unforeseen liquification of protein cubes. The hab module decompression? The hab was never meant to last as long as it had, so of course it was going to break down. The ascent problem? Hastily planned ascent numbers coupled with unpredictable Martian weather patterns and a complete lack of aerodynamic streamlining, as well as tie-downs being used in ways they were never intended to be used, but none of the above could really be avoided. If the weather isn't right for a launch here on Earth, you scrub. If the weather isn't right in this case, where you have a very narrow launch window? You launch anyway.
This is one of the reasons that this movie shined. Not because of a lack of a villain, but because the villain was itself simply a series of unfortunate circumstances, all of which had a very calculable path for recovery. Not only did this allow them to stick to their repetitive message that problem solving starts when you start solving problems, but it also allowed them to fill the film with other potential failures. The water reclaimer staying functional, the air system doing the same, the radioisotope battery in his passenger seat, the rover, the other upright mav, the list goes on. There were dozens upon dozens of other chekov's guns that they could have played with, and they made sure the audience was thinking it too. We all started to see right away that this was a film about realistic circumstance being the villain, so we all started looking for the next circumstance, the next point of failure, all of it.
You could say that the villain was... a series of unfortunate events?
+Aequitas 1995 hurt yourself
...mainly cus i wanted to say that
Circumstance is the primary villain of the real world. The Apollo 13 mission is a great example of that. I agree completely with the CinemaWins presenter; The Martian is so incredibly realistic that it feels like a true story at times.
KingdomOfDimensions In a few decades, it very well could be, then The Martian becomes Historical Sci-Fi Survival.
+KingdomOfDimensions and yet pretty humorous & light hearted for a realistic sci fi movie.
honestly this is one of the few times I can say the movie and the book are equals. Both are stellar and the only difference is the depth it goes in. The movie is like the highlight reel of the book's adventure.
I agree, obviously the book goes into more detail but as far as movie adaptations go this is incredible.
"The blogs keep him from talking to a volleyball." - Priceless!
I'm still disappointed Sean Bean didn't get to say "One does not simply slingshot around the earth".
Ah tjose good old days of the then new art form called meme
points out the awesomeness of referencing the Lord of the rings with Sean bean, doesn't mention them talking about iron man with Sebastian Stan, I'm fairly upset about this.
You should be. Totally went over my head.... I did win the Iron Man line though...
+CinemaWins you did, I particularly liked the line in the movie because I'm a big Marvel fan, I actually came across your channel today when I was recommended your Captain America video, it's now five in the morning and I should be asleep but I'm still watching these videos. 😂
The bigger Sebastian Stan miss is probably the fact he literally talks about "jumping on a moving train"...
Dude, yes!!!
My little sister and I had to pause the movie to cry over the fact with the moving train thing. It was a plus casting for that
One thing I REALLY liked about the Jeff Daniels character is that he had to have the "10,000 ft view". That little scene when he got off the phone with the Chinese space agency let him show he was rooting for Mark too. He couldn't afford the optimism of his subordinates, he had to be pragmatic.
This movie deserves someone making a time machine and going back to the oscars, it should've gotten atleast the one for CGI... Why? Almost all reflections and background on Mars was CGI but it doesn't feel like that in the slightest.
You forgot to mention how scientifically accurate this movie is, except the massive wind storm at the beginning
Edit: Please equip your standard issue Hazardous Environmental Suit before diving into the replies.
@Brandon Fischer Mars lacks the atmosphere to create dust storms of such a magnitude that they would cause that much damage. The author mentioned it was the only thing in the book that isn't realistic because he needed an excuse for someone to be stranded on Mars and nothing else made sense. In the book, Mark drives right through another one and only notices because charging the rover starts to take longer. That is a much more accurate example of what being on the ground during a Martian dust storm would be like.
Dust storms are mainly a threat to solar panels because, well, dust covers the panels which are already not working as well as they would on earth.
Nothing was accurate about this movie but it was entertaining.
@@RaynorTheOne Did you not look into the science of it? The least accurate thing in the movie is China helping the USA.
@@lyly_lei_lei and even that they portrayed with a reasonable explanation
There needs to be more channels like yours!!!
It's honestly great to see fancontent that's not ragging against, but actively praising the work and artistry that go into movies, without scrounging for something negative to say. There really is a lot of good in these works, but when people focus on just the negative, it makes them...negative, and the producers' YEARS of work reduced to a quip or pointing out an obvious suspension of will.
Keep it up friend!!
few films take years though, the script can, but the actual filming process is only about 2-3 months , with postproduction being up to 6 months
it's also extremely important to point out issues with a product or they'll never end up resolved
@@death299 That doesn't mean it isn't good to focus on the positive. IMO, it's better to acknowledge issues but focus on the good things, because it inspires people to improve rather than making them feel discouraged.
@@death299 yeah, but when everyone is pointing out the negative, you need someone to point at the positive. there is both good and bad things in everything, but if you only focus on the bad you never truly learn to do better. yeah everything about X film was shit, but the sound design was amazing! if you only focused on the bad parts of X film, and threw it out, then you lost on the lesson about great sound design. acknowledge the bad, seek to understand what went wrong, but focus on the good and soon you will become great.
"No deaths in a space movie win, this has to be the first of it's kind"
Apollo 13 would like a word.
I mean, their dream of going to the moon died so I'd say that it had an emotional death.
Apollo 1 astronauts died in the first few minutes
Actually, he wasn't about to suffocate, that was a high oxygen warning. In space, it's not running out of oxygen that's the problem, it's getting rid of Carbon Dioxide. When the suits internal scrubbers saturated, it started bloodletting, a process that instead of cleaning and reusing the air, simply vents the air and backfills the pressure, usually with nitrogen, after his nitrogen tank ran out, the suit used the only gas it could to maintain the pressure, oxygen. At high levels, oxygen can be toxic. By the time he got up he was probably already in hyperoxia, and after some time the oxygen would have killed him. A bit of an ironic death to die of oxygen toxicitiy in space.
If this is true, and I can't imagine why it wouldn't be, I just learned something new and interesting. Thanks.
Jimmy eatsom Yep, Earth's atmosphere is only 21% oxygen, we don't really need all that much of it to survive, on top of that it's really easy to transport (An oxygen tank will carry up to about 3000 psi before it becomes volatile, which is 200 times more dense than our atmosphere, and that's pure oxygen, nitrogen is kept in a seperate tank). When a space suit breaches, everything it does is all about maintaining pressure, as that's the thing that's going to kill you faster.
Oh I knew all of that, (Oxygen being toxic and the atmospheric composition etc...) I just didn't realise the way the suits worked with backfilling and maintaining pressure. Quite cool.
+dang3race2 That's what the book claims, but at 1 atmo, 100% oxygen would cause irritation to the breathing passages and lungs after 12 hours of continuous exposure. It would take 1.6 atmos of pressure at 100% oxygen to reach cause nerve damage. In reality, we often give people pure oxygen, even going so far as to put them in rooms of pure oxygen (or, y'know, Apollo capsules) for medical reasons. It's kinda crazy that Andy Weir thought that pure oxygen could kill you when one of the most famous space accidents of all time, Apollo 1, was because there was a *fire* in an atmosphere of *pure oxygen*. If pure oxygen can kill you, why would they have designed Apollo 1 to have a pure oxygen atmosphere and redesigned it not because it killed you, but because it fed fire? Once again, high concentrations of oxygen *ARE* toxic *UNDER HIGH PRESSURE*, which is not the situation here. Mark was on Mars, not the bottom of the ocean.
Makes a nice irony, just not good science. And that's why it wasn't mentioned in the movie. Ridley Scott made a number of adjustments to account for the handful of minor scientific inaccuracies in the book.
Ah, so that's probably why Pandora was so toxic to humans.
7:18
My literal conversation with friends after seeing this way
"Dude what are you doing"
*"I'm going to google the event this is based on."*
"..."
*"Oh god I'm dumb, aren't I?"*
But repeated three times as I'd keep forgetting it's not a true story. Good storytelling might be TOO good.
Same.
SAME! It just feels so so realistic, it's insane! This is one of the many reasons why I love this movie so much. It's so convincingly done that you find yourself believing that it actually happened.
The thing I liked most was the Iron Man bit; especially cause in the book he’s considering it but says something like that it would only work in the movies
so, of course, they did it in the movie, they knew they had to do it and I love that
Also the thing about catching him while being tangled all around the tethers after doing said iron man bit.
But what gets me the most is how in the book, he described their reunion, there wouldn't be high fives and hugging all around. He got cleaned and got immediate medical assistance.
Also in the book when he gets finally gets onto the Hermes, he says something along the lines of “if this was a movie people would be crowding around for a high five” instead he’s just taken to the medical room. In the film they of course have the high fives
Well someone in the satellite communication role probably would be a hired specialist with training and agrees, I will point out that most departments in NASA actually treat their interns like full members of the team. I have actually been extremely fortunate in interning at NASA, and my first day I walked in to find a massive folder on my desk with a current project needing done. And it wasn't them just dropping random work on me, they treated me like a member of the team too. So any movie that shows NASA actually paying attention to their interns is 100% accurate.
I would love to work for NASA but I'm not American :( *cries in Canadian*
@@tickled41 PREACH! LOL
@@tickled41 Canada has a pretty cool space program as well!
"Interns" - Did they pay you anything for your work?
@@thursoberwick1948 Yep. Not a lot, but enough to live on with a little extra in my pocket.
That moment when you realize a huge chunk of this cast is part of or will be in the MCU. You have Sebastian Stan, Michael Pena, Donald Glover, Benedict Wong, Chiwetel Ejiofor, all great actors! Marvel really knows how to cast their movies!
I agree with you! Well done Marvel!
Now we just need Sean Bean in a Marvel Movie.
Portalhero2
Well, we have Andy Serkis, so maybe it's not too far away....
Kate Mara also had a cameo in Iron Man
And now add Matt Damon to that list.
The Martian
Win Counter: 72
Sin Counter: 90
Sean Bean not dying should have been worth 20 more wins. Good video!
72 to 90 seems like a pretty good ratio!
Or 20 more sins
Fun fact: Sean Bean's character has that line in the book and they wanted to give it to someone else, but the cast fought to let him keep it.
What line?
@@unflexian the line about the project Elrond being related to LotR. In the book his character has that line and they thought it was too on the nose so the writers were going give it to someone else but the cast wanted to keep it. Or at least that's what I read.
@@ChronoNeko Ohhhh that's amazing
I love andy weir's books
The pacing was absolutely phenomenal. I watched in theaters, and it flowed so well from beginning to end that I was completely absorbed the entire time with no sense of how long the movie actually was. There was only the story, and its fabulous presentation by the cast and crew.
Favorite line from the book: “…Rich Purnell is a steely eyed missile man” (If you've read it...you know what it implies.)
Agreed!
Rich you are be difficult ; )
My nephew has a t-shirt that says "Set SCE to AUX and Carry On!".
Ultimate. Nerd.
"Mark you're being broadcasted live across the world"
"Hey look, boobs -> (.Y.)"
Mission control 3 seconds later: *doing reasonable stuff to figure out what the hell is going on* 2 seconds after that: "and somebody find out who the hell rich purnell is!"
"Saftey second. For when you forget about safety first" I'd get that on a teeshirt
there should've been a bonus clip of the crew reacting to Watney's logs. That would have been gold
Yes especially Dr Beck over the “ketchup substitute”
Yes definetly
Another big win is using David Bowie's Starman when they all prepare for the rescue mission. That part of the movie always makes me joyful.
"Don't you mean Martiancy?"
No, he means "Phobocy" or "Deimocy"
nice reference to Mars's two moons, not to mention the gods they were named after (Phobos and Deimos) were sons of Ares (with Aphrodite, according to the myths), the Greek equivalent of Mars, so they definitely knew what they were doing when they named the moons after said twin gods
4:11 His facial expression when he says "It has been seven days since I ran out of ketchup"
This is kind of the perfect movie for this channel. So optimistic
Matt should have gotten an oscar for his performance
agreed
I've asked this question before, but theoretically, is Mark Watney the richest man on Earth when he gets back? I mean, he spent a collective 12x the collective time allotted for the Ares mission on Mars. I'm pretty sure NASA pays by salary, but that doesn't mean that he wasn't payed royally for the extra time, possibly including a gigantic bonus for hazardous conditions. So, under a slightly inflated economy (one capable of supporting not only one mars mission, but five), and the base pay of astronauts already at a high number as it is... Then the possible final payout could be ASTRONOMICAL!
Pun intended.
SonOfMyths73 Not likely. Since Watney was a mission specialist as opposed to a pilot etc...his salary would be significantly less. I imagine though once he returned, he would be heavily compensated.
Yeah, I think he would have been very heavily compensated for you know being stranded on Mars
@@christianedwards2774 regardless of his position they abandoned him on Mars, he better be fucking rich when he gets back.
I wouldn't call him the richest man on Earth seeing as Jeff Bezos is a man that exists, but I could see him making the good money
Yeah. He will get a large check. It will be great. Until tax time
I used to work at a movie theater and when this movie was playing, I remember being asked by a few customers if this was a true story. Of course I told them it wasn't but it reminded me of how to not expect everyone to know something just because I know it.
when the guy that iron man tried to kill helps a wannabe iron man in this movie
Who was the guy Iron Man tried to kill? The only actor I recognize from the MCU here is the one playing Martinez, the pilot, but he only plays that hilarious sidekick in Ant-Man, Louis.
+Gui Caldo Sebastian Stan was the winter soldier and Beck (I think that's what his name was)
Derek Lasker Yeah, it was his name. But seriously? I had no idea it was him! Why does it seem like almost every actor here was already in Marvel? We've got the actors playing Beth, Martinez and Beck! Somebody else?
+Gui Caldo what movie from marvel was Kate Mara in
Derek Lasker Oh, that horrible new Fantastic Four movie. Don't watch it if you haven't already; would be a huge waste of time.
The space pirate was actually a joke from the book as he try to keep himself sane.
You leave Sean Bean alone dammit! Let him have this!
Sean Bean made it through National Treasure, too.
Aequitas 1995 If you mean he went to jail for, among other crimes, stealing the declaration of independence... he may have died.
and The Mist.
And all the episodes of Sharpe
And the Greek Mythology Book to Movie film that we must never name.
Needs 1 more win: the mission site is named Ares 3. Ares is the Greek counterpart to Mars.
One of the best sci fi movies I have seen.
Yeah but the thing is: Both are perfectly written when it comes to the science, but Interstellar is going all savage and ridicoulous at the end...
*****
true
you know you made one of the best si fi movies when its succesful without space battles or deaths
What's really great is, that the movie is 98% science and only 2% fiction.
Like said in the video, everything feels right in terms of technology in like 20-30 years. Nothing seems really out of place. It feels like we could do this in the near future if we really wanted to.
In a talk Andy Weir said, there are basically only three compromises he had to make for the book/film, and that are the slim space suits, the (missing) radiation shielding and drastically exaggerating the effect of a storm on mars.
Idk, we're so ignorant about black holes and shit that you can't really say it's not feasible.
Sean Bean explains the Council of Elrond in The Martian.
Sean Bean had the line "Still sharp" in the Fellowship of the Ring, which was between seasons 2 and 3 of Sharpe where he played Richard Sharpe.
"It has been 7 days since I ran out of ketchup" that is one big mood
Everyone forgets that this was a book first and it was amazing.
Having Sean Bean reference Elrond in a different movie, when he himself was actual there.... sort of.... there.. HE WAS THERE! Was so fantastically satisfying. It brought a big smile to my face.
It was great. I wonder how Sean himself felt about it
Sean Bean died in this movie, too. I mean he did fall on his sword (resign) at the end.
a really amazing movie based on an outstanding book.
Also Bucky Barnes marrying Sue Storm is always a win
yyyyuuuuupppppp.
It feels like a true story movie 30 years before the true story happened.
Don't forget about the writer of the book, Andy Weir
It was a great film to go with a great book. A very close representation by all accounts, including space pirates.
My only great annoyance was how they changed Venkat Kapoor from an indian, practicing hindu to Vincent Kapoor, an afro-american christian. That seems like such an unnecessary change and it quite frankly upset me simply because of it's unnecessarilyness. (That's now a word)
But they just changed his first name in the movie, how does that make him African-american christian? Or do you just mean they used an African-american actor?
+GiantSavage117 in the book Venkat says he's a practicing Hindu when he is asked if he believes in God. In the movie Vincent says his father was a Hindu and his mother a Baptist. In addition, Venkat was supposed to be indian, not afro-american. No hate on the actor though, he does a GREAT job.
It's a small, but very noticable americanization.
Sure but this video is about the movie itself so it's not really necessary for him to mention that. Like he might not have read the book
'Safety second when you forget about safety first' at 1:53 had me in more stitches then some of the actual clips.
I can’t believe that the moment where Mark is brought aboard didn’t receive a win. Matt Damon really nailed the emotional charge of that scene to a point where my mother and I legitimately cried tears of joy for a fake man finally having human contact after hundreds of days of solitude and escaping mars
I think he was stranded on Mars for 1.5 years actually. Let’s assume each Sol is one earth day. They were around Sol 30 when the accident happened and they didn’t realize he was still alive until Sol 50
When the finally rescued him, it was Sol 526.
The numbers might be off a little bit but they are fairly close.
5:33
"Hey, tarp's better then nothing at all...
[tarp rips off]

lmao
This must be one of my favourite movies of all times. Really amazing!
Just... some wins in this video sounded more like sins. Actually, I can imagine cinemasins would have used EXACT THE SAME TEXT at some points, but adding a sin instead of a win.
Jaune Arc is your profile pic so I'm obligated to like this comment.
Cinemasins gives sins for things that are actually positives all the time. Like how they sin Back to the Future left and right for foreshadowing even though that's one of the points of the movie and its screenplay has been praised for its use of foreshadowing.
@@pacoramirez7363 Yeah I've stopped watching CS a long time ago for that reason... they used to be clever and witty, now they just do low-quality trash-talk. CW is a million times better.
The astronavigation is accurate. You can calculate backwards and determine the launch date of Ares 3 mission.
"Let's go Iron Man" WHILE THE CAMERA IS ON BUCKY
1) Mark Watney from the book kicks Matt Danom's behind up one side of Olympus Mons and down the other (and I'm a Damon fan); 2) not enough Venkat Kapoor or Bruce Ng; 3) Rich Purnell remained a steely eyed missile man. Thank you for another great video.
(.Y.)
That first Win, lol. Just imagining it in the 'Sin voice' and it is the exact same thing
The coolest thing is Benedict Wong's uncle is played by Eddie Ko Hung, a kung fu movie legend
3:57 - When a creeper blows up your base
This is my favorite book and movie! Im so happy you did it! Thanks!
I enjoyed this movie immensely. My parents and siblings didn't, if I remember correctly. But I was watching this in the theater, on the edge of my seat. Only part I didn't like was the self surgery part, because I have some slight PTSD from a personal experience. Not nearly as bad as being skewered, as you put it, but it messed with me for a while.
That bit about Shawn Bean getting run over by a golf cart came so put of left field and was hilarious!
"Safety second, for when you forget about Safety First"
... describes me on a whole loooot of levels when experimenting with shit...
Oh man I remember reading the book when I was 11 and going to watch the movie with my mum. I was like the only kid in the cinema
Do Napoleon Dynamite! The critics just didn't get it when it first came out, and even Roger Ebert said that he needed to revisit it.
Win 25: I believe she had a masters. She was complaining about it in the book lol. Like "I got a masters of such and such and I'm stuck doing this." Then... her life projected after this moment.
so many Marvel actors in this movie...
Well, at this rate, soon every actor will be a Marvel actor, so that's not really a surprise.
Look at it this way, Sean bean might not die but his characters CAREER did sooo it still counts
No win for barrel roll comment? Star Fox meme is always a win.
This movie is fantastic. Not just for the visuals, or the humor, or the way this feels so current to the times, but also the acting. The acting is amazing, and I can't help but gush at Matt Damon putting on the emotion for every scene he's in when something goes wrong and makes his job of survival a little harder and more miserable. They feel like legit reactions, and I love the moments of emotion he puts on. Like first being able to talk with NASA using Pathfinder to chat via text and he's getting a little choked up, then as he's waiting to launch into space at the end and he looks ready to start bawling his eyes out after hearing his crew's voices for the first time in so long. He breaks down more in the book when he gets Pathfinder working and they are able to point the camera at his question box, but still that's solid acting on Matt's part.
Hands down the best movie I’ve watched in school, I really miss my science teacher :(
Your channel has made me fall in love with movies all over again and has made so much more aware of what makes a movie great how how much passion goes into most (not all) but most of the movies made!
A few films I’d love to see you win are
1) creed
2) Hellboy either 1 or 2
3) Skyfall
I only just realised that there are 3 MCU actors in this movie + the honorary mention of Iron Man in the final rescue scene. I think that deserves a "yup!".
I'd love for you to revisit some of your older videos like this one and give them more of a breakdown. So much more to pick out in these movies than you gave time for 🤞
The only thing I know about this movie is that my child, Sebastian Stan, is in it. That's all I really needed.
your... who??
I love how you used "Will McAvoy" as a reference to The Newsroom! That show was highly underrated in my opinion.
Had to look waaay too hard for this comment
When I first watched this I told my dad that they MacGyvered a bomb to save Jason Bourne and it was the coolest sounding thing I ever heard
Jason Bourne... ON MARS!
Is it just me or was the screen going white for specific bits. I really hope it wasn’t just me by that means my iPad is breaking
Everything great about the secret life of Walter mitty
That's a good one. Added!
Thanks
Wouldn't that just be a 114 minute video? :-p
Yay! :DDDD
I'm so glad I found this channel.
Poketa poketa poketa......
There was a quote I saw on the internet somewhere, I cannot remember where, but it seems relevant. ‘This is a true story, it just hasn’t happened yet’
Always surprising me with your choices. The Martian was the last film I thought you would've chosen.
Ya, not a typical one. But current. Gotta throw those in every once in a while. The other option for this week was The Last Witch Hunter. Might come back to that one.
CinemaWins I felt so bad for the director of The Last Witch Hunter, because last year I went to New York Comic Con, and they were really going out with promoting this film, I remember seeing banner's, posters, I think it made it on the map guide and screening cover for Comic Con. Still after that promoting and the screening they had there, it didn't do well.
I had the same problem when reading the book. I kept forgetting it wasn't real. The way they explain the science just makes it seem so possible.
You have to do Sunshine, I love that movie!
Definitely going to. I'll never understand why it didn't do better. I know the last act is a little different from the rest of the movie, but I still love.
I'd have to go back and look at the promos, but I bet it was poorly marketed, sold as simple sci-fi when there's so much more depth to it.
5:54 - no, he meant Phobosy :)
I know this video is 5 years old and no one cares, but language accuracy matters! :D
I LOVED this movie!!
P.S. My brother's an astrophysicist. 🙂
I wish I had your brother
Does your brother enjoy being an astrophysicist? I'm quite interested in that myself.

I wish I was as smart as your brother.
Ya know, I've avoided this channel for years thinking it would be a cheap rip off of cinemasins, but you actually pay really good attention to merit worthy elements to these movies you review
First space movie to have no deaths? You forget Star Trek IV and Apollo 13.
Star Trek IV had lots of fish deaths from the probe boiling the ocean.
Apollo 13 was my first thought too, but the movie mentions the guys from Apollo 1 dying, so......?
yeah but apollo 1 took place years before the movie even begins. by that logic then people died in this space story because apollo 1 happened.
@@Raethrean Did apollo 1 get mentioned though?
1:01 My big issue with it is that shipwreck victims are expected by society to take notes on the ordeal and BRING THEM BACK so that society can benefit and be prepared for future such events.
I was really digging the movie until the end when he leaves his "notebook" as a secret treasure for some future explorer, instead of being a scientist bringing material back to the lab for researchers to pore over.
He couldn't bring anything but himself back because of the weight. That's why he has to strip the MAV so that it's light enough to make the launch & rendezvous with Hermes. There was absolutely no tolerance for anything else. The book explains that much better. He actually collected samples on the way from Acidalia Planitia & left them for the next mission to find & bring back because they would have the weight allowance.
@@renchinnamunian9693 If he had used the toilet before leaving he could have brought it.
That camera's contents are more important than he is for the future of space travel.
Please do a video on Captain America: The Winter Soldier
done
6:14
Another meta thing, he mentions Iron-Man while the actor who played Bucky is also there with him.
Why isn't there an "everything GREAT about Interstellar" video? I just love that movie so much...
Because it would be the whole movie
This is a fantastic movie, and his video logs are some of my favorite parts of the movie lol. The pirate one never fails to make me laugh.
I actually had to stop watching the Martian cause I felt sick when he was taking the shrapnel out of his body
You should've looked away from that part then.
Isn't that wild though? A self-surgery scene that realistic wasn't enough to make it go past PG-13, but if they dropped one more f-bomb than it would have gotten a hard R.
In that case you should watch The Walking Dead. It's a great show! I swear there's no blood. Or stabbing. Or spilled guts. Or splattered brains. Or extreme gore. Or people being eaten alive.Yeah,none of that. It's the perfect tv show for you,I swear! Go and watch it now!
Same. I tried looking away, and even that didn't help.
I really like what you are doing with this channel, thanks for all your content. Very enjoyable!
Actually, the space pirate part was in the book, however, the "science the s*** out of this" was not.
Wait it’s not? (I haven’t finished the book yet, but i just kinda assumed that was a line in the book too)
I gotta admit, the one time I'll say it, the book is levels beyond the movie. I was gripped by how well the author conveyed every single heart pounding and breath taking moment. As well as the countless amount of science explained in pretty elaborate detail.
