Missed this a couple of weeks ago. Actually looks like a worthwhile Ridley Scott project.
A little background about them trying to make it scientifically accurate:
Fearing the wrath of his nerdy online followers, software engineer and amateur author Andy Weir spent countless hours digging through Google to perfect technical details in what became a popular 2012 e-book about an astronaut stranded on Mars.http://www.latimes.com/science/la-fi-martian-movie-science-20150820-story.html
As director Ridley Scott turned Weir's bestseller into a movie, he had NASA guide him through making Mars and space exploration technically and visually accurate.
The pair's adherence to science ended up producing a movie that has spawned excitement across NASA and the wider scientific community.
"The Martian," starring Matt Damon and set to hit theaters Oct. 2, contains plenty of Hollywood drama and humor. But, said NASA director of planetary science Jim Green, it's also true to the science, technology and human cooperation necessary "to overcome major challenges" in space.
Cast Away in space? Looks pretty dope.
I wish I could watch Youtube videos in HD. Since the player update I don't have the option anymore.

That's strange, I still have it. What version browser are you using?
Firefox 40.0.3. It's probably the computer, an XP machine. YouTube works fine on my Win10 Dell laptop with the same browser, but I use that for other stuff.

By S@l Go To PostHendrix and space work well.Yep, most amazing song and works so well.

2 things though that makes me go meh.
1. when was the last great Ridley Scott film?
2. Matt Damon? really?

American Gangster, Kingdom of Heaven Director's Cut were all made within the past decade and are excellent. We can extend it to Matchstick Men which came out in 2003 and had a good Nicolas Cage performance.
The movie is seemingly getting rave reviews left and right and it's a long way out from release.
4 Reasons Why The Martian Is Ridley Scott’s Big Comeback
4 Reasons Why The Martian Is Ridley Scott’s Big Comeback
Ridley Scott is unquestionably one of the biggest directors in Hollywood, but even his most ardent fans have to admit that Scott’s recent track record has been all over the place. Exodus: Gods and Kings was an overblown CG mess, The Counselor was an audience-stumping bomb, and Prometheus looked so tantalizing yet delivered so little. As I settled in for the screening of Scott’s latest film, The Martian, at the Toronto Film Festival this morning, I thought about Prometheus in particular and how my dashed expectations for that film had cautioned me against getting my hopes up today. Ridley Scott’s movies always make for great trailers, but can they still make for good ... movies?http://www.vulture.com/2015/09/why-the-martian-is-ridley-scotts-big-comeback.html
Happily, I can report that he’s still got it. The Martian isn’t liable to become an iconic sci-fi film in the vein of Scott’s early classics Alien and Blade Runner, but it’s a rock-solid, damn fine crowd-pleaser, and that’s more than enough. Here are four reasons why the movie works so well.
Bump. Out this Friday. Currently sitting on a 94% RT score:
Smart, thrilling, and surprisingly funny, The Martian offers a faithful adaptation of the bestselling book that brings out the best in leading man Matt Damon and director Ridley Scott.http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_martian/
I just saw it. It's good. From what I can gather, it's very faithful to the novel, which is probably why this is Ridley's best work in many years.
By Dark PhaZe Go To PostJessica Chastain had me sweating in thisShe bad. Real bad.
But this movie was too dumb for me to enjoy. I can't believe I'm saying that... But they go too hard trying to explain some things and its just bewildering. The entire last sequence made me want to walk out.
Courage under Fire, Saving Private Ryan. Titan AE, Syriana, Green Zone, Elysium, Interstellar, The Martian....

I think I'm just gonna be 'that guy' when it comes to not liking this movie. I just don't think it did anything better than the other survival in space films.

I liked the science stuff but I thought it was too hollywood for my tastes
By DY_nasty Go To PostI think I'm just gonna be 'that guy' when it comes to not liking this movie. I just don't think it did anything better than the other survival in space films.oh it didn't but it wasn't horrible other then the race swapping and bad music choice to hate
By Yurt Go To Postwe are 'those guys' I guess lolI've sat down and stomached a lot of bad films, but for some reason I was so ready to just get up in leave 3/4s of the way through the movie. It just got too ridiculous. I knew it was going to have a happy ending and I'm like no. he has to die. nothing else will make sense.

And then the movie ends with "SPACE'D "
or getting cancer from the radiation and dying on his way back
I liked it. I put it in the middle between Gravity that was too simple and interstellar that got to in depth (add to that interstellar had horrible sound editing so words were hard to hear)
Then again I'm a sucker for space related movies
Then again I'm a sucker for space related movies
It's probably Gravity > Moon > Interstellar > The Martian > Sunshine for me as far as recent space films with this type of story go. Gravity was a really special experience at the cinema.
By Prototype Viktor Go To Postcan't believe old boy from Sunshine got sooooo dam overweightHe plays Kublai Khan on Marco Polo.
