I don't think Watney was teaching on his first day home-- I think the "Day 1" caption just meant it was his first day of his new job as a professor.
A bit of 4th-wall-breaking fun: at the end of the novel only one of the crew is in the airlock to meet Watney as he comes aboard and the narration says that if this was a movie, they'd all have been there. Come the movie, and sure enough-- they're all there.
I prefered the original 1st edition book ending. It suited the Mark character much better.
In regards to the hearing their voices after so long, Matt Damon was actually told all the other actors/actresses had finished their voice overs and it was just him left doing his parts. So when they were suddenly there doing their lines, Matt was genuinely emotional because he thought they weren't there any more. I loved this movie, and actually read the book before the movie came out to prepare and understand the movie a bit more. It was a great read.
@BattleAngelFan You can't achieve true greatness without being willing to take risks and possibly fail repeatedly.
The martian 2013. Mark Watney was alone and Mark Watney was stabbed by the antenna piece of metal.
It should be noted that NASA doesn't go to space without a healthy supply of "gray tape" (what they call their version of duck/duct tape) since Gemini (early/mid 60s). It has literally saved lives and missions.
I really recommend reading the book. It's even funnier, and there's so much more detail. And since you asked, in the book it explains that the HAB breached because there was a small tear in one of the pieces of HAB canvas that was attached to the chamber Mark used to enter and exit. Over time, the strain placed on the canvas caused by the pressurization every time Mark had to enter and exit the HAB caused the tear to stretch and eventually rip apart.
Not to mention space equipment isn't general designed to last forever due to cost and weight constraints. It likely lasted many more cycles than expected.
I wish the movie had used the original book ending. It felt more like the character of Mark you spend so much time with.
@@joshuad6553 "It likely lasted many more cycles than expected."
It did; the original mission plan was to spend only a month on Mars.
And Andy Weir’s more recent book ‘Project Hail Mary’, which is absolutely brilliant!
I've seen people point out why the hab breached, but in all these reaction videos, I've never seen anybody talk about why the first resupply rocket failed.
In the book, it says that one of the food items in the payload, which are basically protein cubes, weren't tested for how they react to shock. So what happened, is that as the rocket launched, the cubes liquefied and suddenly took less space in their containers, and when the rocket staged, it caused a shock that made the now-liquid cubes slosh around, unbalancing the payload. And that shift in weight then broke one of the five retaining bolts keeping the payload secure, transferring the load to another bolt. Except that second bolt had a microfracture that reduced its load capacity to the point of uselessness. So with two bolts broken, the other three didn't have enough strength to handle the weight, and they soon broke as well, leaving the payload loose inside the fairing. Gravity then took over, and the payload slammed into the inside of the fairing, causing a force imbalance that the rocket couldn't correct for.
So when you asked if the inspections would've caught the cause of failure, the answer is yes, they would have. The protein cubes would've been deemed unsuitable for launch, and the cracked bolt would've been replaced.
And while that exact scenario hasn't happened irl, it shows how minor stuff getting overlooked can lead to catastrophe, similar to Challenger in 1986.
They don't do the goofy Ironman stuff in the book. Mark suggests it but is voted down immediately. Instead he stays put and Beck comes and gets him as planned. They changed it in the movie to make it more "exciting", like it wasn't already dramatic enough. Speaking of Beck, he and Johanssen become involved on the mission. You find this out in a deleted scene from the movie and it's also in the book. And if you look closely when Beck is waiting to receive the probe Johanssen is watching him and he blows her a kiss. Getting involved on a mission is against regulations, but Lewis is OK with it since by that time it wasn't a normal mission.
After this, Apollo 13 is a must. This film was about a fictional space disaster. Apollo 13 is the real historical deal.
One of my favorite “if it’s on tv when I’m scrolling through, I have to stop and watch it to the end” movies.
11:57 Hexadecimals means using base-16 math instead of base-10. You use numerals 0-9 plus letters A-F to count: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f, then 10. It saves characters because (for example) “255” in hexadecimal is only “ff”. Plus, you can translate computer binary (base-2) code into hexadecimal code very easily. Thus, the next bit where they use ASCII code, which is how computers represent letters and numbers.
As a computer scientist that whole part was extremely fun for me to watch. :D
I'm baffled that they never even heard of it. I don't mean this as an insult I just don't understand. What do they teach to them at school?
@@szenszely5143 sorry its so late but i had same reaction. i watched couple of channels reacting to this movie and im shocked every time that people have even not heard about it lol
note: and same, i dont mean it as an insult, but i truly thought this is considered as pretty basic knowledge, at least in my country
I love that she said it was her second favorite movie, of the ones you've watched together! I rewatch this film all the time. When I saw it in theaters, I was the only one that laughed out loud during the Project Elrond meeting😂 I still feel like the whole scene was written just for me, and no one can take that away from me, lbs!
'Looks pretty hot.' the noon temperature, in summer, at the equator: 20C. Coldest: around -150C
Duct tape was invented by NASA to repair ducts in space
I read this as a joke and thought you said “ducks” in space. I thought it was funny and then I realized that I, unfortunately, was being stupid. XD
For years, I always thought it was Duck Tape.
@@robbob5302 It can be. Duck Tape is a brand name.
@@robbob5302 Duck tape is the original name because it was made of cotton duck cloth. It only got the name "duct tape" in the 60s.
@@klopferator
Okay thank you.
I had an embarrassing moment once. Had a young Russian coworker. Was still learning English. But trying hard. One day he held up a roll and asked what it is called, I said Duck Tape. Somebody else corrected me. Said it was Duct tape. I felt embarrassed I didn’t know that. With English being my native language.
Guess I can feel less embarrassed now.
☺️
The book makes it clearer, the airlock was a weak point, from the constant pressure changes. Mark gets in to the bad habit of using one more than the other for convenience, kicking himself when he realizes after he put extra strain on it.
What I found really fun about this movie was the soundtrack.
As far as the water goes, if you look at old footage of the space shuttle Challenger exploding, that is basically the same chemical reaction that produced the water in the movie. 2H2 + O2 = 2H20
Fun fact, 5/6 of the actors that play the crew are actually in marvel movies, not mcu, necessarily, but still marvel movies. Also, not very big parts, necessarily, either.
Jessica chastain- X-men dark Phoenix
Matt Damon- Thor: ragnarok
Sebastian Stan- several mcu movies (winter soldier)
Kate Mara- fantastic four
Michael pena- ant man 1&2.
You asked about spacesuit weight.
Weight is relative.
The smaller the object you're on/near and/or the less the amount of centrical force you're experiencing, the less relative weight you will experience. Weight on Mars is 38% of weight on Earth; so if you weighed 100 lbs on Earth, you would weigh only 38 lbs on Mars.
What Watney stamps against his abdomen before digging out the imbedded wire is injections of a topical anesthetic, to kill pain.
"I'm not gonna die here" is a mission statement.
Everything else follows from that.
Yeah, space travel takes a while.
More so because Earth and Mars have different orbits. Recall the Sun is 93 million miles away from Earth; sometimes Mars is on the OTHER side of the Sun. Our orbit is 365 days; Mars is slightly-less than two years (687 Earth days). Distance from Earth to Mars varies from 35 million miles to 249 million miles. The closest we got to Mars in 2022 was about 50 million miles, in November, before moving apart again.
Also, most people think all of our solar system orbits are circular; they are not. They are elliptical, not circular. Earth's orbit is elliptical, and Mars is even MORE elliptical. Meaning more difficulty setting up travel routes.
To get to Mars, we have to coordinate how long it takes us to travel a set distance against where Mars will be in relation to us. And depending on WHEN we set out, that distance and location will be different every time, so travel time will fluctuate wildly. Usually, we choose a time Mars will be closest and calculate back from that to determine where Mars will be at that time and when we have to be ready to leave to get there.
In this instance, the crucial limit is how soon they can get to Mars before Watney starves to death or some other catastrophe occurs. It's further complicated by lack of supplies; there's a reason they can't just turn around and go back; they could run out of food, oxygen, or fuel if they don't pick up more before the attempt.
Mars is an environment not very less hostile to life (especially human life) than straight up outer space.
Mars is farther from the Sun, so it's colder (average temp globally is -60°C/-76°F), has a much thinner atmosphere which is mostly carbon dioxide. You can survive on Mars without a space suit for about 2 minutes.
Inspections would not have helped. The problem was weight shift in supply items (payload) that were liquid. Inspections are for the function of the rocket. Payload details were overlooked, so would not have been on the checklist. The 'shimmy' would not have been foreseen.
29:33 🤣I like to think somewhere out there in the world is Matt Damon planting random potatoes
Johnny Appleseed, the reboot.
This is literally shown three times a week in the UK. I know it by heart 😄
But ironically, they were talking about the Elrond Secret Meeting, with Boromir in the room!

I highly recommend checking out the book it was based on, it goes into a lot more details (in a very clear and engaging way, no complicated science knowledge required) that explain a couple of the things you guys were wondering about.
(I would also recommend the writer's other books, _Artemis_ and _Project Hail Mary_ - both are also sci-fi, _Artemis_ is kind of a heist story while _Project Hail Mary_ is closer to _The Martian._ Both also have movie adaptations planned, I believe.)
Problem of this story as a movie is that everything is rushed, every plotpoint happening dirctly after another. The story cant breath. The, lonliness, the monotony, the hard work is cut. The travel with the rover was if i remember between 6 and 12 month. The planing for that trip to make it possible. here its just. Jump into the rover and boom. we are there.
But still i have to say, they got the best possible result with this movie, and the movie gives the same joy as the book.
If you're going to do Project Hail Mary I recommend the audiobook narrated by Ray Porter.They use some really spectacular effects to mimic a character's speech, and at the end they also reverse the effects for another character (avoiding spoilers). It's a really spectacular production and Ray Porter is a top-tier sci-fi narrator and meshes VERY well with Weir's writing style.
I'm pretty sure what Mark used on himself before dealing with his cut was a topical anesthesia
Lidocain or even morphine.
Definitely one of my top favorite movies, very well done in every way
Nice reaction ☺️ I've never laughed more with a book than I did with this one. Totally recommend 👍
Agreeing with everybody's who's recommending the book (the audio book is also awesome) - it is very funny and you get more details, to explain some of the things they show in the film. Although not always - in the book, the bit about him doing self-surgery is about a paragraph long. OTOH, the blown-out-airlock, I think, was much more dramatic in the movie. Mark Watney is hilarious and you'd love all his thoughts about things. Anyway, enjoyed the reaction :)
The 1st edition if you can get it with the original ending.
Okay, I got two space themed movies for you. Gravity and Space Cowboys.
This is a great movie. Love the reaction, keep it up!!!
Your question about the weight of his suit.. It looks quite a bit lighter than the suits worn by the Apollo astronauts, which were over 200 pounds. But, the gravity on Mars is only 38% as great as on Earth, so you can carry almost three times as much mass.
Mars gravity is one third of Earth's.
According to several scientists, there's really only one major scientific error in this movie, and that is, given the low, low atmospheric pressure on Mars even a hurricane sized storm would have winds stronger than a light summer breeze. The astronauts were in no real danger at the beginning, but they went with the " rough storm" because otherwise they wouldn't have a story.
Also the iron man scene which was not in the book because that force to the side of his center of mass would only send him spinning uncontrollably. Also Beck did not travel along the side of the ship untethered without any propulsion device.
Surprisingly fun and feel-good movie from Ridley Scott.
3:40
The suit has a built in toliet.
13:49
Their is an extended edition which says what he actaully said. It is stronger then the F word. Do not google this word.
I hope someday there is a movie of the book "David Starr: Space Ranger", perhaps he could meet Mark Watney: Space Pirate. 😉
13:57 "Mmmm... dick move". LOL I could not have said it better.
the film that finally proved that Matt Damon is a high-class actor, and not just another clown running with a gun in his hand in front of the camera.
He had already proved that with Good Will Hunting and other movies.
I assume you are talking about the Bourne movies, because off the top of my head I'm not coming up with anything else he's done that comes close to fitting that description. But if you thought he was just a clown running around with a gun in his hand in front of the camera in those movies you weren't watching closely enough. It's fine if the genre isn't to your liking, but that part was extremely well acted.
Should have listened to the disco song during the end credits!
I am SO sorry I have forgotten the other reactor's name, but did I catch that she has not seen the LOTR movies? really??? Oh please, I would love to see her reaction to the Director's Cut long versions. They are movies full of heart and character, as well as adventure, beautiful scenery and beautiful music. I think she would like them very much. Everyone is so surprised about how short the movies feel, despite their length, because they are that absorbing and immersive.
And as an Epic story, she may find some similarities between LOTR and the many amazing Epic Chinese movies set in past history of the Empire.
Not sure where you caught that... They have reacted to the entire trilogy together, you can go watch it. Thor (don't know his real name), is a huge fan of LotR, and the reaction to the movies (which he has obviously seen multiple times by that point) is a lot of fun.
One of the most accurate sci-fi movies made!!!
Obviously they had to change and leave a Lot out that was in the book. Tip #1 is get the Audiobook that I listened to on my daily commutes, the voice acting is just Incredible. "Duct Tape works anywhere and should be Worshipped!" Also they did Not do the Ironman stunt at the end. Otherwise still a good flick but the book is just Incredible.
In reality that storm would not be powerful enough to scrub the mission. You have to keep in mind that Mars has a third of the gravity that earth has so a storm with the winds like that wouldn't have enough power to tip over the mav.
i have watched couple of reactions to this movie and im stunned people have no clue what hexadecimal is lol
Astronauts train on things until they can do them as a reflex. They train and train and train until they do not have to even think about a task, they just do it. They cross train in other fields in case something happens. They all learn how to repair things on their vessel. They all go through survival training. And for a Mars base mission... that would be way more intense than normal astronaut training. He already knows a lot of chemistry and biology from being a botanist. Honestly, I don't feel this movie or book is all that far fetched. Mars is gonna be hard... but I think we'll be able to make it work there. I mean, look at the exploration we did 600 years ago with nothing but the stars for navigation and wooden sailing ships.
"Home Alone: Space Version"
Lmfao, I just imagined Mark setting traps for burglar martians.
4:40 where you're thankful they left him all the stuff, and commented that it might have been because they left in a hurry.
No. Really no.
Anything that doesn't absolutely need to get to orbit stays on the ground.
To give you an idea, to lift a kilo of mass, you need a kilo of fuel. But the fuel has to also lift its own weight, so you need even more fuel to lift it. To send NASA's space shuttle into orbit around Earth took 3.5 million pounds of fuel (I hate the imperial system). That's the weight of 15 blue whales, by comparison. That lifted the shuttle, the crew, and whatever equipment they needed, and they measured everything to the ounce.
So the idea that they would pack up and load everything into the shuttle to take back with them is just not feasible. They wouldn't even take the entire shuttle with them. They'd leave the landing equipment behind because every ounce of weight they take to orbit means multiple times that of fuel they'd need to get it there. Less than on Earth, because Mars gravity is lower, but still something that the engineers who built it would have to take careful consideration of.
All astronauts these days are taught to staple their own wounds closed. Just in case.
If Watney has been a real nerd, he would have used his potatoes to power his computer.
Chemist making a bomb:
A lot of the training for chemistry involves learning what not to do. Way too many ways to make a bomb or poison gas, or any number of things that disagree with humans.
An advert for Duct tape.... You guys need to play "Stationeers" ... be your own Mark Watney
Love it, great fun!
Great Reaction Guys
Why’d you stop making vids with Domi? Loved you two together
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
Actually i dont think this Was duct tape. It was some Kind of titanium tape they use for airplanes too, which costs about 1000 Dollar per roll
In the book it's duct tape. A couple of quotes from Mark: “Also, I have duct tape. Ordinary duct tape, like you buy at a hardware store. Turns out even NASA can’t improve on duct tape.” “Yes, of course duct tape works in a near-vacuum. Duct tape works anywhere. Duct tape is magic and should be worshiped.”
He had a much easier time in the movie than in the book.
Sooooo…. How many of that cast are in the Fox/Marvel universe???
How is "Hot Stuff" the least disco song she owns, when we clearly hear him listening to "Starman" and "Waterloo" later?? 😂
If there was ever a time when strongest cuss-words possible were justified, the 'sewing-up' and 'haven't told the crew' moments were well-written for precisely the harshest language. Yet... it still doesn't help!! (That's sooo frustrating - we need to find cuss-words that really WORK - stop the pain, stop the agony!! ha ha)
Question: Which is a better stranded survival movie? Cast Away or the Martian?
For survival education I might actually need some day? Cast Away.
For shere awesomeness? The Martian.
China number four!
Yay, Jessie is back! 🤩🤗 This is a great movie to react to. Thank you for sharing!
Nominated for 7 Oscars including Best Picture but didn't win any.
If you haven't watched it maybe Gladiator which was also directed by Ridley Scott? I love The Martian close to my favourite movie and/or book.
This is my favorite movie that's not lord of the rings
Wife or husband.
You do not exhale oxygen. I'm just sayin'.
You do. Lungs are not 100% efficient at swapping oxygen with carbon dioxide, so we're always exhaling some back out.
We exhale quite a bit of oxygen. The amount of inhaled air on Earth contains 21% of oxygen and 0.04% of carbon dioxide (and 78% nitrogen, a bit less than 1% of argon, and the rest are various trace gases), while the air we breathe out contains 16.4% of oxygen and 4.4% of carbon dioxide (and the other stuff). Consequently, in space flight, oxygen is rarely as big of an issue as CO2.
Why people comment stuff they don’t know to look smart is beyond me lol
I loved the reaction but that chicks voice was so annoying ngl
"everything possible with Chinese"........HA! You're funny. I love fan fiction too.
