  • The Martian has been nominated for multiple Academy Awards including Best Adapted Screenplay, and it’s a surprisingly close adaption of the novel it’s based on. Now it’s time for us to read between the lines to find the differences between the book and the film. Subscribe: goo.gl/9AGRm
    The Martian tells the story of astronaut Mark Watney (played by Matt Damon in the film) who is left stranded on Mars after the rest of his crew-mates think that he’s been killed. Both the book and the film follow Watney as he struggles to figure out a way to survive as long as he can while desperately hoping he can make it long enough to be rescued. Unlike most of our What’s the Difference subject matter, The Martian movie stays incredibly close to the book, with only a few changes made in order to keep the film interesting. At that, it’s time pull back the proverbial shower curtain on all the differences between the book and the film.
    Have you read The Martian? Are you a fan of the film The Martian? Were you upset by any of the changes they made from the book to the movie? Are you a fan of science fiction films? What’s your favorite?

    you forgot the biggest missing thing from the book! in the book, everyone on earth is commenting about how they can only imagine what mark could be thinking about all alone on mars. It then immediately cuts to mark saying, " how can Aquaman control whales if he can only talk to fish?" best line in the whole thing, and they left it out of the movie!

      +Daniel Allen The line actually did make it into one of the supplemental bits showing Hermes crew during the buildup to the mission (a lot of that stuff is pretty fantastic IMO). What I liked about the film is that Watney has a lot of lines that aren't in the book, but still sound very much like things that book-Watney would say. Like "It's been seven days since I ran out of ketchup."

    Watney at the end in the capsule ISN'T shivering in fear, but crying in elation because he can FINALLY experience the emotional relief of facing the end of his gruesome endurance test on Mars. Before that he couldn't let himself go emotionally as he had to keep it together or else risk death. But, at the end when salvation is finally within reach the emotion he's had bottled up until then finally begins to leak out. Or, in other words, he really is human.

    @SamuelTBrooks 8 лет назад +134

    The dropping of Watney accidentally destroying Pathfinder really bugged the shit out of me. If he never loses communication with NASA, there's nothing stopping them from giving him permission to board the Ares 4 MAV. Which means he's not technically a space pirate. But they still have him talk about being a space pirate,and even claims that NASA still can't give him permission. He even tells NASA to call him a space pirate and Vincent figures out his reasoning. Its really weird to drop such a huge plot point but keep one tiny bit of it that makes no sense on its own.

    • @MattTheTubaGuy
      @MattTheTubaGuy 5 лет назад +2

      The movie sort of covered this.
      In the book, Watney can only take the middle section of the Pathfinder lander, leaving the 'wings' at the landing site, one of which has the ground rod. I believe this fact was specifically mentioned in the book.
      In the movie, the rovers have cranes on them, so he grabs the whole pathfinder lander. This would include the ground rod, so there would be no shorting of circuits.
      A relatively minor detail, but one that has pretty significant implications for parts of the story when you think about it.

      ben swolo in the book, there was a plan for Johanssen to survive even if the supply probe failed. The others were doomed, so they would all commit suicide and then she would live off of the remaining rations and later by cannibalising her crew mates. She was chosen to survive because she was the youngest and also the smallest meaning she could survive on fewer calories. Luckily for everyone involved, the supply probe was successful.

    You missed the part in the book, right after he safely enters the Hermes, where he says something like, "If this was a movie, the whole crew would be running in to greet me, but that doesn't happen because blah-blah-blah." In the movie, they do exactly the thing that the book says they didn't do (and they wouldn't have -- they've got to perfectly pull off a slingshot orbit to get back home or they all die -- that's a really high priority). Also, the whole Iron Man maneuver creates a problem because Watney has broken ribs. Remember, in space, no one can hear you scream (like a little girl). :)

    Wooooow wait up! You forgot the most important difference!! Matt Damon is NOT a SPACE PIRATE!
    I should elaborate I suppose.. It is the result of the difference between the book and movie stated around 4:30 . The difference in the communications being short out in the book and not the movie. Consequently, Watney goes on, without communicating with NASA, to appropriate NASA vehicles intended for other missions. He has no explicit permission from NASA to do so, which makes it that Watney is hijacking it. This is wat makes Watney a space pirate.
    Since Matt Damon in the movie version keeps in contact with NASA and they basically tell him what to do he is no space pirate.
    Sorry Matt, you're no space pirate, only book Mark is.

    my favorite even in the book was when he nearly blew up the hab with the whole 70% hydrogen incedent. im just amazed the nice OPEN FLAME on his (admitidly source of said problem originaly) hydrogen burner didnt result in the described mushroom cloud where his hab used to be scenario. still like how he still managed to blow himself up a little STILL even after draining the O2 to burn off the hydrogen safely. the book was so much better...

    This movie is one of the best adaptations I've ever seen. It actually improved a few things from the book, such as having commander Lewis going on outer space to save Watney. It was great because it totally fits her character and made for a much more emotional scene than the original. Also loved the epilogue, something I greatly missed in the book.

    • @Evelina_412
      @Evelina_412 8 лет назад +1

      Her going out to space makes zero sense though. And the fact that they took that Superman joke seriously and actually included it in the movie is just stupid.

    • @CidGuerreiro1234
      @CidGuerreiro1234 8 лет назад +1

      Evelina999 It makes perfect sense. She was already disobeying Nasa's orders in the first place. That stunt was risky as fuck, it makes sense she would put herself on the line instead of sending Beck since she didn't want to "lose another man on space" (her words, more or less).
      The Iron Man thing was silly, I agree. That would never work.

    • @Evelina_412
      @Evelina_412 8 лет назад

      CidGuerreiro1234 That's why he was tied to a cord. He wanted to just fly out there without it because there was a chance that he couldn't reach Mark, but she forbade it because she didn't want to lose another man in space. Beck wasn't in much danger with the chord attached and losing a captain is much worse than an ,,outer space guy".

    • @CidGuerreiro1234
      @CidGuerreiro1234 8 лет назад +1

      Evelina999 Beck had the least amount of character development in the book (and the movie, for that matter). Other than being in a relationship with Johansen he was kinda just there. I think Andy Weir wanted to give him some of the spotlight before the end of the book, but the scene with Lewis was much, much better. I couldn't help but to think this is how it should've been in the book (which I loved anyway).

    • @dreamslove1184
      @dreamslove1184 6 лет назад +1

      Evelina999 But Beck was the eva specialist, the bestman to do the job not Lewis. So, a good commander that want to suceed a mission, must send the best to the job and That is beck not her,going her increases the risks of failure so she was not acting with head.

    We read this way before the movie and it's quite true, they did an exceptional job with both the screenplay and the casting.

If you read the book, you can clearly see there was no one else who could have pulled this off so perfectly!

    I actually thought film Mark was angrier than book mark, he got really pissed when he found out his crew didn't know he was still alive where as in the book he was mildly annoyed and then instead of saying such a bad word that they didn't even show it in the film, he typed "look!

    I thought the biggest omission was the inner monologue. I just finished the book last night and then rewatched the movie today for the first time since the theatrical release. The book explains - in great detail - why the Hab airlock blew but the movie doesn't get into that. The book explains in great detail Watney's calculations on how much water he'll need, how much oxygen he'll need, all the technical details of how he manages his resources. And of course, the big problem he faces when he flips his rover on his way to the Ares 4 MAV site. None of these make the movie 'worse' because this is a mainstream movie and pacing matters. But it could have done without Donald Glover's goofy explanation of how a gravity assist works. Also, the ending in the book is far more poignant, emphasizing human capacity to work together and help each other. Far more resonant than the scene we got with Watney's new gig as an instructor. All in all a good movie but a great book.

    • @ZeteticPhilosopher
      @ZeteticPhilosopher 4 года назад

      Tremere I mean, I think Cinefix pretty clearly registered some level of discomfort in their tone. However, it’s worth noting the the reason whitewashing is considered a problem isn’t because switching a character’s ethnicity is inherently bad, but rather that doing so occasionally compromises the story and is rightfully seen as pandering to a white audience. It’s the reasoning behind the switch that matters, and in this case it’s hard to know if it was “right man for the job” or “any brown guy will do”.
