Form a literary perspective, Sean Bean still died.
ConductorOfTheStruggleTrain
I'm not normally someone that says stuff like this about movies but... READ. THE. BOOK. It's fucking hilarious and the movie left a lot out.
Theirth1961
I just realize that the whole reason why Sean Bean is in this movie.

"Jesus, NONE of you got laid in high school." I think is what she said in the book, afterwards.
Banhammer72
Kristen Wigg is such a babe.

De-story the ring! Nothing to read here!

thanks Obamer

FFS I checked and double checked. I'm a muppet
AetherMcLoud
One of the things I loved about this movie: there wasn't any antagonist. Usually these types of movies would have the PR lady as the villain
MandMEnterprises
From the comercials i thought the head NASA guy was gonna be the bad gut
ConductorOfTheStruggleTrain
Mars is the antagonist
SweatyYeti420
yeah screw mars

"So none of you got laid in high school?"

The book however, was candy for my mechanical engineering brain.

I HATED the book. HATED. Probably won't see it.
badmusicpuns
great movie
CODbreath
I can't remember him dying in the book..
WhoYouGonnaCallGhostNappa
He kills his nasa career, does that count?
CODbreath
I guess, it will have to do.

Look, boobs!!! (.)(.)

It's been seven days since i ran out of ketchup

"Watch what you say, the entire world is reading this" - "Look, boobs! (.Y.)". Next to the aquaman part, it's my favorite part of the book.
ConductorOfTheStruggleTrain
How DOES aquaman control whales?! They're mammals!
tardisbels
"He thinks we left him there...wonder what he's thinking right now"
Ironblitzed
"fastest man in the history of space travel" I do like the way it sounds... I mean, I like it a lot. I'm not gonna tell them that.

Aw. Missed the best part: when the other guy was like "if this is the council of Elrond, I get to be Glorfindel."
xxacc
I hate you all.
EarendilTheBlessed
everyone forgets how awesome he was
CodenameAstrosloth
Most believable part of the movie. Because OF COURSE a bunch of NASA employees are Tolkien nerds.
valen00
Apart from the bit where nasa got funded sufficiently to go to Mars and the martian wind being 10x stronger than it should, whats up with it
KingsKnight
I was so hoping Sean Bean would say "I suppose I get to be Boromir", but it never happened.
levetiracetam
I was seriously upset when it didn't.
Hjohan
Would have been too obvious, no?
GoogleFucker
I still would have been laughing, so...
KingsKnight
Yes, but I would have giggled regardless.
SmokeyQuartz
I was hoping that too.
whataintnocountry
Sorry mate, I'll have words with the management
JamesGtheThird
THEY SPEAK ENGLISH IN WHAT?!
Artopho
I came across this post as I was watching this very scene
toxicrabbits
The book is amazing but the fact that Sean Bean is in this scene makes this amazing too :D
SylvanaDarkmyst
I laughed at this for an unnecessarily long time at this because of him.
toxicrabbits
Same!
holywhitetrash
this is from?

Alien: ressurection

Well done.

The Martian
Zer0th
The Martian (with Matt Damon), good film. Though, I hope Leo gets the Oscar.
yavamosportuputahamburgesa
OH MY GOD. YOU DONT KNOW YET. I am sooooooo excited for you. First- watch the film, then read the book!
yavamosportuputahamburgesa
oh an its called The Martian by Andy Weir
Bolster
Sean Bean knows.
wilypants66
I think they cased him just for that
xzxw
Sean Bean has been seen there.
FWAKADATHOOM
Sean Bean there done that
KingOfPersia69
Sean bean been seen

Shawn Bon got gone a ton. Like he died a lot. Shut up, you don't know my life.

No! Sean Bean understands

This is so meta, I love it.

Oh bloody hell. Here, someone take my Geek Card. It took me way to long to get this reference.

TheBlackKaiser
WAIT!!! I just realized he didn't die.
TheStealthHippopotamus
His career did
TheBlackKaiser
Not in the book. He was basically like, you have to take credit for it now, so screw you.
ReallyNotAVampire
I actually quite enjoy him in Legends on TNT
gogogadgetcopter
I watched this movie last night. Good show, good book. The Martian.
fatdoldofalling
My parents watched it last night... Mom? Dad?
Squossifrage
Too bad the science is for shit.
ScienceIsntAboutWhyItsAboutWhyNot
And Sean Bean didn't die! I expected him to get a heart attack or something
Ruhig
At the end of the movie, he's just somehow stuck on Mars.
NotJamesMay
It was so much more funnier then I expected it to be! :) Even though it's a quite sad subject, being alone on Mars
tardisbels
the book is even funnier. He starts out by saying "Well, I'm pretty much fucked." and it's impossible to put down after that.
AnythingMuchShorter
Most romance novels take a lot longer to get to that part.
Virtuoso
The book has even more jokes
ConductorOfTheStruggleTrain
The literal first line of the book is "I'm pretty much fucked" followed by "that's my considered opinion. Fucked"
PureHermit
.
Senofa
It's out on DVD already?!
jondoh
Kristen Wiig looked really good in this movie. She's got a great body! Yes I know she's done nudity and I've already seen it.
kiDDarknessssS
Naked pictures? Ugh. Disgusting! How could she let naked pictures be posted to, what site did you say it was again?
jondoh
Google images. She shows her mighty beaver too.
YetAnotherDay
Hate to be that guy, but the book was so much better. The audiobook was pretty darn good as well
benmyfriend
Honestly, i thought the movie was better. IMHO the book felt very amateurish.
Rezol
I have to admit I agree. Finished the book yesterday. There's a lot of word repetition, but I liked the setting and story too much to care.
benmyfriend
Exactly. I do look forward to the authors future work. This was his first novel.
Rezol
Same! Oh, if you're into sci-fi, check out Jack McDevitt if you haven't already. He's not flawless either but it's good stuff.
Maggiemypet
I'm a huge fan of the narrator. He could read me his grocery list
Maluck
the only problem is speaking scenes, where every line is "Venket said" "Teddy said" "Mitch said", its especially pronounced in the audiobook
clotblock
I watched the movie first then the book I enjoyed both equally
clotblock
The movie was mostly true to the book but cut stuff out for the sake of brevity
myfingerpoints
I did the audiobook and not the novel. I loved it.
IAmGreco
The book will always be better because you cradt the stories and characters in your own mind. The movie is still good though
BurlRavenscroft
In the movie he keep communication with earth after initially regaining it, so they DO tell him to hijack that ship. And no dust storm. 2/2
BurlRavenscroft
Better because more swearing and the character is actually in serious peril, constantly, and a legit space pirate. 1/2
Zeketec
The book left out WAY too many mishaps that really enthralled the reader. The movie was def subpar from what everyone said.
WiqidBritt
The movie was already over two and a half hours long. It's not like they had a lot of room.
Zeketec
Well I mean... Curiosity blowing up and not being able to communicate, plus him falling into the crater were pretty big ordeals in the book.
WiqidBritt
And it's too much for the sake of pacing in a movie. It doesn't need 10 more roadblocks on the way to the climax.
keyserv
The movie is not as good as everyone says it is. I thought it was average.
JCLII
Hate to break it to you, but some people have different opinions than you do, and that doesn't mean they're wrong.
YetAnotherDay
Yes. Just as my opinion differed from OP.
KimMakesStuff
They cut out a significant majority of the plot. The sandstorm, the technical jokes (there were a few about Linux). (1/2)
KimMakesStuff
I loved that the Curiosity reactivation was an actual process and not a montage in the book. It was so nostalgic for me, growing up (2/3)
KimMakesStuff
watching stuff like Apollo 13 and reading 2001 A Space Odyssey. (3/3)
