THE MARTIAN (2015) | So EMOTIONAL😭 First Time Watching Movie Reaction

[@jeremykraenzlein5975]

Between "Saving Private Ryan", "Interstellar", and "The Martian", Americans have spent over half a billion dollars to rescue Matt Damon.

[@scottlaughlin9897]

lol, the Martian alone cost more than that!

[@jeremykraenzlein5975]

@scottlaughlin9897 According to IMDB, "The Martian" took about $108 million to produce, and made about $228 million in the American box office. The Box Office earnings increased to over $600 million when international receipts are added, but my comment was just about American audiences.

[@scottlaughlin9897]

@ thought you were talking in a literal cost, not box office sales. My bad.

[@iTakerrr]

@@scottlaughlin9897 If you're curious of the actual cost someone estimated to rescue him from literal cost, it's about 900 BILLION dollars across different movies lol.

[@secondrickamendment4770]

Don’t forget therapy cost, court fees etc for robin saving will. I always chuckle when will ask “do I have a sign on my back that says save me”

[@arraymac227]

'They're nerds.' The real nerds know that Sean Bean, who told the crew that Watley is alive, played Boromir in The Fellowship of the Ring.

[@richiemclusie3343]

If Sean Bean somehow manages not to die he still gets fired. Dude can’t catch a break.

[@JK50with10]

Watch Sharpe. The only character tough enough to survive being played by Sean Bean for over 10 years.

[@EdainEriador]

He don’t die in National treasure.

[@ronfehr7899]

One thing I like about having two reactors is that there are often slightly different reactions to the same scene. When the entrance to the HAB was destroyed, Magic was exclaiming "No! No! No!," while Laura was quite, with a worried look on her face.

[@beeecig2873]

Fun fact Sean Bean was on that "Elrond" meeting as Boromir =)

[@kroanosm617]

They totally missed it.

[@raymundo4638]

Jup , that'so ironic

[@Thebobbyman]

i really wished in the movie when she asked how do you know that sean bean would have said "cause i was there"

[@1wwtom]

In the book, the woman just said "None of you guys got Laid in school did you!

[@Thebobbyman]

@ LOTR female fans exist

[@estoy1001]

One of my favorite lines in this movie is Jessica Chastain showing how good her comedic delivery is: "Vogel? I need you to come inside and make a b...omb," as if she's thinking as the word comes out: "did I just order a bomb?!"

[@thedarkknight2221]

Ridley Scot actually came up with the idea to have Mark talk to the GoPro cameras as a way to narrate the story, because in the book he’s only talking to himself.

[@plothole181]

I thought he was writing things in the logs.

[@KenHoughton-k9b]

Not sure you caught that Sean Bean was Boromir in Lord of the Rings. So he attended the Council of Elrond in both movies. 🤩

[@BattleAngelFan99]

He got to play a hero in this too and he didn't even die! I guess he did lose his job though..

[@StevesFunhouse]

Or that Bucky (Sebastian Stan, from Captain America/Winter Soldier) and Luis (Michael Peña, from Ant-Man and Ant-Man and the Wasp) are also playing on the same team THIS TIME.

[@adamskeans2515]

@@BattleAngelFan99 yeah, his career died., lol

[@jefferybarnett6056]

Magy, your understanding and use of the English language has gotten so good. Both you and Laura should be proud. You relay your thoughts and comments very well and you have picked up on so many of the nuances with the language . Love your reactions !

[@Joskemom]

I never complain about the way a person speaks when they know more languages than me.

[@FeaturingRob]

Andy Weir, who wrote the original novel, researched the hell out of the subject of what could happen. He started out posting a chapter at a time in a blog format, and pretty soon, he had a publishing contract to publish the book, and then it also had a bidding war for film rights. Just about everything in the book is based on science as we understand it and accurate. The one big flaw that I know of is the weather on Mars. There is a very thin atmosphere, so no debris can kick up enough force to make the abort necessary. You would get a bad dust storm, but nothing like that, as only the lightest dust particles would kick up. If you watch The Expanse or read the novels it is based on by James S.A. Corey, the events of The Martian are canon in that universe. There is a ship called the Mark Watney. The Expanse takes place hundreds of years in the future in our colonized solar system.

[@StevesTubes]

There was another science issue in the movie. The whole Iron Man scene. There would not have been anywhere near the thrust shown from a suit breach. That much mass could have a very gradual acceleration, but only if there was a large enough supply of air available. To be fair, in the book Watney only jokes about going Iron Man. He doesn't actually do it.

[@MagsonDare]

@@StevesTubes In the book he suggested it and everyone else just went "No, that's dumb!" so he didn't do it. The book also pointed out that when he got reeled in to the ship that if it was a movie that everyone would be there to greet him at the airlock, but since it wasn't a movie they were all at their workstations like they should be -- so of course in the actual movie they're all there to greet him ;-) Andy Weir also mentioned in another panel I saw that he handwaved away the need for radiation shielding.

[@lefear2]

There is another big flaw, but to be fair to Andy Weir the information about it wasn't available at that time. It's the fact that the Martian soil has too much perchlorates in it for plants to grow. Although, if the information about the perchlorates was available while Weir was writing the book he'd find a way for Watney to neutralize the soil too.

[@lifeincarnate7304]

Definitely an all time fave!!! The science, story, music, heart, and comedy is top notch. Ridley Scott never disappoints. Great channel and reaction ladies!!!

[@andrewmcclure2378]

42 meters per second means he traveling roughly 151 kilometers per hour or 94 miles per hour. Catching a major league fastball in space

[@maverickmac1797]

Nice analogy!

[@trobtx3538]

a fastball that also happens to be ~170 pounds 0.o

[@ravensdark99]

"He is a steely eyed missile man" is the highest form of compliment you can give someone in space travel. Just as a fun fact

[@michaelanderson1476]

Definitely one of the most positive and uplifting films ever made!! Love this film!!

[@LuisRdzG10]

Oh, I remember watching this movie in the theaters, such a good experience. Can't believe it's almost 10 years ago. Always looking very beautiful ladies. Magy, please never stop smiling!

[@thedarkknight2221]

Getting stranded on Mars for 3 or 4 years would be the only scenario in which I feel I could truly commit to watching all of One Piece, Bleach, and all of Naruto and Naruto Shippuden.

[@andyastrand]

Excuse me mission control could you delay the rescue mission by another 3 months please

[@Alexszander]

It's so impressive how both Mark and his crew managed to keep their sense of humor throughout all that. It's probably one of the things that made this movie so unique. You fully expect them to delve into the whole "depression/suicidal" concept, being alone on Mars with low chances of survival. Watching Mark MacGyver his way for a year and a half was incredibly impressive, all the little achievements like creating water, the first successful crop, managing to communicate with NASA. The most emotional moments were by far Mark's first communication with NASA, talking with his crew for the first time, his crew finally rescuing him. This movie and Interstellar did wonders for the whole "space travel/sci-fi" genres, they are outstanding from all perspectives - dialogue, acting, directing etc. You're right, Magy, the shots from "Mars" are visually stunning, every single time you see Mark go out, the vastness of the space observable from his perspective, it really humbles us as a species but at the same time, it's impossible not to feel a bit of pride - we reached this point and we will only continue to grow as a species, strive for the stars. Thank you for such an emotional and captivating reaction, commentary, discussion, you did great ❤

[@thedarkknight2221]

When Ridley Scott asked the people at NASA what the spacesuits for future Mars astronauts would look like NASA said to them that since they actually get their inspiration for how they design their suits from movies that they should come up with the designs themselves.😂

[@jeremykraenzlein5975]

It has been said that "The Martian" is by far the best of all sci-fi space movies in which no one dies.

[@joshuagalaviz1811]

Matt Damon is a good job in the movie The Martian. He's a masterpiece.

[@coldflamebluedragon196]

I just love how this movie balances humor and serious dread so well. A Sci-Fi series you might try is The Expanse. It starts slow but ramps up. Mars is part of it

[@jgrado3]

I’m digging the white dress, Magy! Same for Laura with the blonde highlights! Going fancy for this one.

[@UncleQue]

This is one of those movies that give you just about all the “feels” that one can feel! The ladies here with another fine reaction. We also get Magy with the short hair from a few months ago. She wasn’t crazy about the look but I must say she rocked it. It’s always interesting to me to watch how the younger generations respond to music that was recorded literally decades before they were born. Neither Laura or Magy are likely to know how divisive disco music was back in the 70’s because they just hear it as dance music. Anyway while most of disco has been forgotten some have managed to become pop classics.

[@YodatheHobbit]

Next Sci Fi movie about space to watch = Sunshine(2007)! For some reason no one ever reacts to it! You could be one of the first! Cillian Murphy!

[@ronfehr7899]

I like that you included bits of Waterloo in your video. ABBA was my favorite band for years.

[@maverickmac1797]

You two young ladies are so easily emotional. I wish I could give you both a *magic* hug and take your heartaches away. You both are sp precious and special. I just love watching you both so much. I hope it never ends. Sincerely. I'm a native English speaker, as I am from eastern Kentucky. Not making fun. Just trying to help. Martian = Marr-shun. (close enough). Sci-fi; that is a rhyme. It is not sci-fee. Both, sci and Fi, rhyme with hi; or high, or my, or why... And, yes, Magy, even for native English speaker, this movie has much science-y things that is difficult to catch. But, the good news is, we learn. I was able to figure things out as I watched. Then, watch again, and again. Lock into mind. Learn. I am anxious for the next reaction. Have a great day/night, week/weekend, whatever. Blessings, Mac

[@Scyth0r]

A movie that's all about hope, cooperation and optimism, with no real 'bad guys' to hate. Something that the world neeeds more of.

[@MrHws5mp]

The "Bad Guys" are Fate and Physics, and we've always been up against those two buggers.

[@lttlejordan23]

The Martian often gets overlooked because of Interstellar, but it is such a fantastic movie! Well-directed, well-acted and well-produced. Visuals were great for the most part as well. Incredible production value. Easily one of the best "space" movies, along with the likes of the previously mentioned Interstellar, as well as Prometheus. Among notable others.

[@nathansellers8454]

I love this movie. The guy who wrote the book who inspired the Martian has written another book called “project Hail Mary “ that I think will make a great movie someday. Love you ladies you are both so fun and beautiful. Great reaction

[@Mr.Tin_88]

Matt Damon deserved the Oscar for this. Top Top Top

I have this on Blu-ray, Ridley Scott, Matt Damon and great supporting cast and I new U Girls would love this, great Reactions😎.

[@Chuck2624]

Nobody generally recognizes the songs Mark plays usually match what is going on in the scene. For example, when he gets the nuclear reactor to keep him warm, 'Hot Stuff' By Diana Summer is playing.

[@glennwelsh9784]

1:48 No, there really aren't any storms on Mars. The Mars atmosphere is very thin. There can't be big storms when there is very little atmosphere to create any pressure and blow anything around. The most recent NASA Mars rover actually had a little helicopter, but the rotor needed to spin much faster than it would need to on Earth in order to fly because of Mars' thin atmosphere. It's one of the few scientific inaccuracies in the book and the movie, but they needed to create an inciting reason to strand Mark there.

[@joon0]

Mars literally gets recurring storms that last for weeks and cover huge parts of the planet. The air just doesn't carry enough force to do the kind of damage they showed here.

[@garylister]

Been a subscriber for years and I have to say (unless others haven't) your new haircut is beautiful.

[@ghyslainabel]

The original book was inspired by the Apollo 13 scene where they needed to fit a square CO2 filter in a hole for a round CO2 filter. I highly recommend you the book. There are even more things that went wrong. The storm that kick-started the story is scientifically wrong: the air on Mars is so thin, it could not push the rocket. All the rest is either grounded in real science or plausible.

[@lazyperfectionist2]

13:36 "But this is good music. I like it." I hear ya. It's Hot Stuff. 🕺💃

[@ricardorgomez]

It's a fantastic movie. There is also lots of life-lessons to learn here. If you really try to learn the movie and hear the messages. How to apply these things to real-life. I also appreciated how you reacted to Whitney basically starving himself... Yeah, it looked bad. You ladies are lovely. Keep tup the great work!

[@josephdonais4778]

No reaction vid has yet noted that the "Hot Stuff" song was related to the hot stuff in the canister behind him in the rover.

[@Ali-bu6lo]

This movie is an adaptation of book with the same name from Andy Weir. I wish his two other books, Artemis and Project Hail Mary get adapted as well, they are even more amazing. BTW he has written a short story name "The Egg" as well which the KZbin channel Kurtzgesaget has turned into a short animated video.

[@Joskemom]

Space travel is one of the last greatest adventures for man. A movie you ladies would love is the movie "Apollo 13" with Tom Hanks and yes, it is a true story.

[@davefranklin4136]

The science in Andy Weir's book is pretty solid, though one exception is the idea that a Martian storm could tip over something as obviously massive as the MAV. The Martian atmosphere is so thin (which is why the "launch Watney into space under a tarp" is viable) the speed of the wind would have to be many hundreds of miles (or more kilometers) per hour (and of course, if that were true, there's no way they could send the MAV years in advance). They did a pretty good job converting the book to the movie, with (IMO) one major exception: the whole "iron man" thing. That makes me cringe every time. I mean, they have an MMU (Manned Maneuvering Unit) designed for an astronaut to move about in space!

[@sithlordkaeyl21]

This movie, ‘Moon’, and ‘Arrival’ are three of my favorite space films and deserve to be watched by everyone, because they are all so amazing.

[@brandonarthur93]

magy's friend is so fly :)

[@BiffMan42]

If you enjoyed the heroism in space and humor in that movie, I highly recommend The Right Stuff. It's a wonderfully told story of the first days of NASA manned spaceflight in the Mercury program. True heroes, great music, amazing stuff that I think you'd both really enjoy.

[@moriquendi32]

Amazing movie - better book.

[@lazyperfectionist2]

23:12 "You can't eat potatoes without ketchup." "I can." Well, I mean, to be completely honest, so can I, but it's such a _drag._ Potatoes with no _ketchup?_ It's just so automatic. You go to a fast-food restaurant and order fries or hash browns, you make it a point to pick up _ketchup,_ because without the ketchup, the fries and hash browns are just not _complete._ It's like whipped topping that hasn't been _sweetened._ Now, if you think that's hard to imagine, there's probably a _reason_ for that.

[@user-mg5mv2tn8q]

No ketchup for me. A little bit of salt, that's all I want on my fries or hash browns.

[@inspectre27]

Globally, lots of stuff is put on potatoes. Mayonnaise, salt & vinegar, brown sauce, gravy (both fries/chips and non), the impossible mixture that makes up the topper for poutine...😅

[@be.relentless]

Apollo 13 should be an automatic reaction Magy and Laura should do after this movie :)

[@bobbwc7011]

Plothole in the movie: growing potatoes on Mars. That is impossible. The soil on Mars is infertile. In the book, they brought a certain amount of Earth soil to Mars. When the airlock blows up, it makes sense why he could not repeat everything with the now also infertile Earth soil. In the movie he could have just restarted the botany programme. He still had all the tools. NO IDEA why they omitted this little detail from the movie. It would have been 1 sentence to explain that they had brought Earth soil. Secondly, the iron man bullshit was not in the book.

[@CreeperBoyGamingyt]

The only thing that’s scientifically inaccurate about this movie is that there isn’t supposed to be any storms on Mars, the atmosphere and wind isn’t strong enough to create such things Edit: could you watch interstellar? It’s similar to this movie but it’s done by Christopher Nolan and Hans zimmer Edit 2: 1 sol is 1.02 earth days, 24hrs 39mins. Edit 3: Donald glover’s character slipping onto the floor wasn’t scripted

[@thelokiway4478]

The atmospheric pressure is so low that fast winds like that would feel like a stiff breeze, and not be able to do the damage that was shown in the movie. As you said other than that this movie is great with science!

[@user-mg5mv2tn8q]

Yes, winds really can occasionally get up to 300 mph on Mars, but because of the thin air, a 300 mph wind has the pushing power of a 25 mph wind on Earth. It won't tip over a spaceship, but it could knock down the patio chairs.

If you guys loved this movie… you REALLY REALLY need to watch/react to Interstellar! I absolutely LOVED The Martian but Interstellar is one of, if not the greatest “space/sci-fi” themed films of all time!

[@D-Wells0203]

The storm in the beginning of the movie is the only aspect of this that’s entirely inaccurate. There is so little atmosphere on Mars, it wouldn’t even blow a flag around, let alone tip a multi-ton spacecraft or launch a satellite dish. Of course, if that were accurate, I guess we wouldn’t have a story. The rest is all fairly on point given what scientists knew about Mars at the time.

[@Docjonel]

Yeah, I also gave Andy Weir a pass on this one scientific inaccuracy (which he was well aware of) because otherwise we don't really have a story.

There are storms but they are very light. The high speed winds are true, but the density of the atmosphere is very low. So high speed does nothing.

[@pnwcruiser]

Have you watched the extraordinary sci fi series "Firefly"? Wonderful characters, writing and acting. Nobody who watches it can understand how it was cancelled after one season.

[@1wwtom]

First you had to be around when Pathfinder landed there. I watched the whole thing on TV. I got the audiobook for my daily commute a year before the movie came out. First Mars' atmosphere is abt 1% the density of Earth's so storms like shown don't exist. Your average Fart is more powerful than any wind on Mars. Anyway the book has way more than the movie plus a lot more humor in it. Spoiler Alert! In the book Mark does not do the iron Man thing. Martinez went and got him out of the MAV and brought him back. I still liked the movie but the book has a lot more in it. Mark - "Yes, of course duct tape works anywhere. Duct tape is magic and should be worshiped."
