Hell Yeah posted:ok the problem with this movie for me is that he's like trapped on mars, right? he's in a deadly situation with his back against the wall, and for him it's the best thing ever. matt damon seems like he is having so much fun in the movie, totally feeling himself like never before, and yet the guy is basically about to die constantly. it's like if castaway featured tom hanks rocking out and having fun all over the beach wearing sunglasses and cracking cold beers with a party dog. (honest to god seriouspost) in my copy of the book there are 'discussion questions' at the end of the novel, and one of them brings up the idea that Watney uses his sense of humor and grandeur as a defense mechanism against his incredibly likely demise. I think Matt Damon did a good job working that angle and it was entirely on purpose. TBH if I was stranded on Mars I'd be on some poo poo too man
