Well, the damage from the dust storms are probably the least realistic, actually. Barely any atmosphere and the record wind speeds recorded in the past 40 years were 60 mph... A sneeze on earth has more force than the worst dust storm ever recorded on Mars :P
+Evil Gary Maybe if NASA was actually landing people on Mars, instead of just saying "forty years from now, there's at least a chance that maybe we might possibly do it maybe probably possibly"
Wait... Considering that he's an astronaut (even though a botany specialist), he would have had all sorts of training (medical, mathematics, science)... I think... Just saying :p
+Marcus Chan In the book, he is also a mechanical engineer. The movie doesn't address this and so his apparent expertise in mathematics and technology is a little confusing.
Sublime ahh... i guess so... when i watched the movie, i just assumed that he would have had that sort of training anyway (haven't read the book and only watched the movie last night)
+Marcus Chan Yeah, they're not just going to send a random botanist into space. He would more likely be an engineer who was taught a shit-ton of botany for the mission. Also any astronaut is probably very interested in mathematics and hexadecimals.
Not to mention, him knowing hexidecimal is reasonably believable. Any nerd with an interest in hacking games on a Nintendo system knows it to at least some extent.
+Clay Bransom Didn't in Ronin either, did he? Bond and Sharpe were my introductions, and I might have only seen one death in LOTR. Given I've seen every Sharpe, I think he can be a good badass hero who should live more! :)
As an astronomer, I found this movie amazing. In the book, Mark has dual major in botany and mechanical engineering, plus astronauts have to be trained for basic first aid and lots of other things to be able to handle different kind of situations in space. In real life they are more like this movie than astronauts in stupid movies like gravity. One more thing: Neil de grasse Tyson is an astrophysicist not an astronaut; all astronauts definitely have more technical skills than astrophysicists.
That initial condition will never be met! You can take the word of a stranger on the internet on that! :3 But seriously, It won't happen. If we wanna fix things, we have to start NOW. Space is the only chance to unite the world. Just put an 10km wide Asteroid into a collision course with Earth and see how every nation shit their pants and unite to save the planet. Or worst, we might have a race on which country will save the Earth, which would be kinda dumb.
All through high school and college I thought "when am I going to actually use this algebra/trig/calculus 1-3 in real life? Sheesh!" Then I started working in the water treatment industry and holy shit, all that is suddenly not only useful, it's required, and man I wish I'd learned it better.
I do wish they'd mentioned his dual specialties from the book, both engineering and botany (the crew all had to double up, Lewis was both commander and the geologist, etc). Instead of "I have to grow food on a planet where nothing grows. Luckily, I'm a botanist" they could have easily said "Luckily, I'm not only the mission engineer...I'm also a botanist." Ah well, as adaptations go it's still pretty good.
@@yevgeniyaleshchenko849 Not in the movie, no. He specifically says he's a botanist, and everyone acknowledges how smart he is but they never tell the audience that he's a trained engineer.
@christopherpayne7515 But bro it's a movie they don't have to say it with words... They say it with his actions... I mean what they said out loud is that he is a space pirate... But that's because if you look at his actions, he was doing botany and actually didn't have any history or screen time that suggested he was some sort of Blackbeard of the stars... Blackbeard of the stars Let me just say that again because it was fairly epic and You won't know that unless I write it out because this isnt a movie
1:50 To be fair it's not so hard to imagine that astronauts would be given some training on first aid. Also it wasn't like he was performing heart surgery or something, he just took out a piece of metal from his abdomen and stapled the cut. For the experiment to get water a big part of plant biology is understanding chemical reactions in regards to plant life and it isn't so hard to imagine that a botanist would be able to figure out how to make water. I'm not even gonna comment on your assumation that a scientist who's probably got a phd wouldn't know about hexadecimal.

This is the first one of these that really didn't do the movie justice. After watching this and the commentary on SJ+, I find this to be a classic case of people (as good as they are at entertainment and movies), who just have a fundamental lack of knowledge in the movie's subject matter. Other than the dust storm, this is by far the most scientifically plausible fiction movie made in a long time. NASA, just like any science based organization, requires documentation In this case a VLOG would probably be the most organic and detailed way. If we look at history as an example, the Apollo missions ran for 5 trips to the moon. So using that as a basis for a series of Mars missions would be pretty logical. Each mission would require multiple supply drops (since we haven't invented a method to get 100,000lbs of stuff up to space then to another planet in one go), including the vehicle that would be used to return low Mars orbit. So no it is not a convenient movie plot, it is plausible reality a future Mars astronaut might face.... The one gripe I had with the movie (other than the dust storm) is that they don't use the private vehicles that we have now. SpaceX is banging out heavy lift rockets left and right to send satellites to Geosynchronous orbit, would be perfect for a second or third try at Iris. PS.

+Mike Jackman - You remember that scene where they take you to the other Ares lander site? Remember how it was chosen to be placed in a crater? Wasn't that intentional, putting the mission site in a crater to shield the mission site from the kind of surface winds that caused the hole story to take place in the first place?
+Mike Jackman That comment isn't really directed to you as much as it was me seeing the movie last night and trying not to forget bits like the crater landing site.
It was 9 at night when I decided I wanted to go to the movie theatre and saw this because of the name and one review. I loved the movie and at the moment I'm reading the book for my English class, it's amazing. The best book I've read in 2016 so far.
+Tatiana Gibson I like how they deliberately called Troy for Abed - because Troy was the goofy one and Abed the nerdy one in Community :) Which is totally related to your up voted comment ;)
True man.. nothing is more beautiful and satisfying than understanding the math behind nature. Wish people were less dumb and appreciated the basis of our existence more.
It's actually a very good movie! Fascinating, humorous, intellectually stimulating and a great plot. One of the best I've seen in a while 10/10 would recommend!
Math is really cool. It needs to be glorified more, so that people can realize how good it is and how not boring it can be. You shouldn't give the math in the movie the bad light you did. Also, astronauts must be experts in all Fields. They are geniuses. And I really enjoyed the movie

Cutting Nasa funding seems to be a bit of a sport. I guess the US military just needs like 80% of the tax money and that money has to come from somewhere. Now that Nasa isn't needed to develop nuclear rockets any more (because they already exist) American politicians lost interest.
A little over half the budget is spent on the military. The original purpose of our Federal government was not to give free medical coverage, education, food and housing for everyone that happens to drop by; but instead to provide for defense and even enable Bolshevik college students to openly complain about said defense, without getting their heads cut off by the enemies they wish us to capitulate to.
Fear not! Privately funded companies like SpaceX are flourishing and should get us to Mars within a decade. Just next year NASA is sending the Parker solar probe, and the James Webb space telescope. Space travel is still alive and well.
Yep. Astronauts get very diverse training, so that everyone could do every job with an acceptable degree of competance. Given how dangerous space is, it's a neccessary precaution. If you only taught one astronaut how to fly the ship and then he died during the mission, they'd all be screwed. Everyone also has two specialties. Mark Watney's was botany and mechanical engineer, so it's kinda guaranteed that he'd be able to fix complex machinery.
*raw potatoes *Also this was based of an awesome book. This is not at all an continuation of interstellar. The only similarity is Matt Damon stuck in space. That wasnt even the main plot in intsteller.
I still have nightmares about this movie. Now I can't see any Matt Damon movie without thinking he will jump out of the screen and use his botany powers on me.
+Victim of Lag Agreed. It was ok, but the problem is the movie was too good to make fun of. The best part was the beginning with all the times Matt Damon's been saved in movies and even that was pointed out by others online when The Martian hit theaters.
+doughbafett nah this movie wasn't good, just as predictable and generic as every other "guy stranded on a foreign place and has to struggle for life" movie
+doughbafett The movie wasn't that good. I mean really, why would they choose a terrible genre of music to be the soundtrack. And why were we asked to believe that a plastic tarp would hold back the same sort of storm that knocked Damon hundreds of feet away from his crew?
I hate it when reviewers don't acknowledge that he probably has more than a botany role and more extensive training even if it's not said in the movie. Like seriously. Tons of reviewers just whine and say "Why can he do all this shit if he's just a botanist?" Maybe because he's a fully trained astronaut. One of the most highly skilled humans on, and off, Earth.
I have an equal amount of love for this movie and the book. Matt was simply the perfect choice for Watney. Easily one of the most rewatchable films ever!
Cameron Mcclintock It's probably a reference to _Good Will Hunting_ and/or _The Departed_, which both star Matt Damon and are both set in Boston. Or maybe it's just because Matt Damon is from the Boston area. Either way, "The Maaahtian" is just "The Martian" with a Bostonian accent.
it's just a piss take with the amount of math in it. 😂 I mean yeah its good to see some hard-core problem solving but Jesus Christ, they really over done the maths in the book 😂
It is wrong for any movie to use anything but the metric system when it comes to science. Even here in the U.S.A. our scientists use the metric system. Its the universal measuring system for science and math
i mean, he didn't have to torque anything down, so there was no need to bring in ft-lbf's/Nm's. if they did, i imagine they would've had an entire chapter explaining why ft-lbf only applies to Earth, what the conversion to ft-lbf on Mars would be, then go on to "that's why they use ft-lbm", before ending the chapter with "but we're scientists, so we use Nm, and here's the math for that conversion."
The Borg Depending on the content of the movie you can get away with a bit more. They actually dropped it twice that I remember in the movie, right after he finishes sewing himself back up and again when he's bringing the dirt in. The book was a LOT more colorful, especially Annie! That gal didn't know what a filter was! LOL
Looks like someone has anger issues. Your tone of your comment wqsn't very much in favor of the movie so using rational deduction I'd think you liked to book way better. Or didn't you
+Sevival "Anger issues" No I don't think so, nice try dumbass. And no....no you didn't deduce anything, you stomped in here with a superiority complex with a bad attempt to call me out on something you didn't even read. You were just trolling like a moron. My comment didn't infer anything about weather I liked the book or movie better, again nice try dumbass. Move along now, you lose.
I listened to the audiobook, then watched the movie a couple of weeks later - tbh, I loved them both, and the "documentary" online extras are a real bonus! If you haven't already, WATCH THIS MOVIE!
+Eighteen Zero If you watched Community, it's obvious that this is a joke. Unfortunately it's a weak joke to start with and if you don't get the reference it plays a bit like the white bred screen junkies team have difficulty telling apart an African American actor and one from Indian/Polish descent.
No other movie is more true to it's source material, in my opinion. Book and movie were both fantastic. That being said: Never, ever stop doing Honest Trailers, Screen Junkies.
+Niall Grennan Well no, not exactly. He's deliberately referring to it as "botany powers" because it's a joke, it's not meant to make sense. But yes, if we were trying to make sense it would be "botanical"
The math was awesome, nice to see a movie that acknowledges that math is important! Now do "Real Genius"!!!! Popcorn Space Laser! Popcorn Space Laser! Popcorn Space Laser! Popcorn Space Laser! Popcorn Space Laser! Also, say "Popcorn Space Laser"
That's because uneducated, ignorant people who aren't smart enough to get a real job, and thus waste their lives mocking movies and smart people, make fun of the things they can't understand. The dumbing down of American education is a primary reason the culture is in the horrendous state that it is.
I imagine that if a person is isolated all by himself for over 30 days, no contact with anybody; he'd go insane if he didn't hold those vlogging sessions.
It is still human interaction regardless. Try going no TV, no Internet, and no Human Interaction. That's a much bigger step of isolation than no physical prescence. lookingat what other people are saying and talking to other people means that you are not alone.
+Th3Sh1n1gam1 There was an experiment that people who are isolated from other people eventually lose their minds, they begin talking to themselves, start hearing things, seeing things. We aren't a species that can be left alone truly. vlogging sessions are actually used in military for stress relief.
+MrDeothor i read the book before watching the movie, it is kinda meh, but is the only book adaptation of a book that i have read that i didn't totally hate, so with that in mind i could say it was a good movie.

+jamesthemaniac He seemed like Abed inhabiting Troy's body like in season 4 episode 11 but that was the gas leak year so this whole movie might have just been a hallucination or a dreamatorium simulation.
To be honest, this movie is actually good, for the "realism" of the principles (of course with a lot of covenient resources already established in Mars) applied in Damon´s stuff.
+Jo SefGray honest trailers almos never work when the movie in question is great and almost flawless. Which is the case of the Martian. Such a well made, well acted movie allaround.
+Jo SefGray For sure. Most of the plot points they pick on are pretty well covered in the movie (why there's a habitation module on Mars with a "car,"; why he's "vlogging" the whole thing, etc.), and the plot points that aren't explicitly explained are extremely nitpicky or not totally unbelievable (like how it is somehow unreasonable to think a meticulously trained astronaut could clean a wound or perform maintenance on their equipment). Just seems like a lot of people were telling them to do The Martian, so they cherry picked a lot of stuff that people who haven't actually seen the movie would find funny.
I got very happy when I learned they made a movie of the book. I never knew it was popular. I just really liked the book bc, well isn't it obvious, i am a science nerd
Was _really_ hoping for this kind of cameo. Not sure why, just was: "I dear! There is all of this technology lying around!" "Who the hell are you?" "I'm a Martian. Is it okay if I use some of these parts? I want to use them to create weapons for my race. Wouldn't that be lovely?"
Hey you guys forgot to mention the scene where he has to grow his food using his team mate's poop. That part certainly should have gotten some joke time.

+Tatiana Gibson I like how they deliberately called Troy for Abed - because Troy was the goofy one and Abed the nerdy one in Community :)
Which is totally related to your up voted comment ;)
+Tatiana Gibson This is the quote I was looking for.
That was funny
Muuuuuuuuuuurph
The world is math, when you get right down to it Screen Junkies. And when you get right down to it, it's downright beautiful.
They also think Maths is apparently speaking numbers out loud from the examples they gave
True man.. nothing is more beautiful and satisfying than understanding the math behind nature. Wish people were less dumb and appreciated the basis of our existence more.
Seems to be using common core maths in this timeline...
"Do you think the world runs on maths ? I mean... Open your eyes !" Claire Fisher, Six Feet Under
@@enzocrespin5806 yes becuase world runs on physics and physics is just real world aplication of mathematical prinicples
This is one of my favorite movies.
same
***** i liked it because of its comedy aspect
I mean who freaking doesn't like the part when he mark tells us about him being a space pirate! Hats off for that comedy
This movie was good, but I liked the book way better. It had more comedy
Not only was it better in general, it also had more scientific facts and more swear words XD
If only NASA was fully funded.
+BATMAN
Maybe if you didn't spend so much money on gadgets and tank cars you could fund them yourself.
Edison Trent HA!
Who's the real Bootman?
+_ Bootman The fool or the fool who follows him?
+Edison Trent and gold plated cop cars and stuff
It's actually a very good movie! Fascinating, humorous, intellectually stimulating and a great plot.
One of the best I've seen in a while 10/10 would recommend!
Math is really cool. It needs to be glorified more, so that people can realize how good it is and how not boring it can be. You shouldn't give the math in the movie the bad light you did. Also, astronauts must be experts in all Fields. They are geniuses. And I really enjoyed the movie
Do a Honest Trailer about Honest Trailer !!!
Yes!!!!

I wish NASA could be more popular and better funded
Cbricklyne well to fair black Osama cut their funding too
Cutting Nasa funding seems to be a bit of a sport. I guess the US military just needs like 80% of the tax money and that money has to come from somewhere.
Now that Nasa isn't needed to develop nuclear rockets any more (because they already exist) American politicians lost interest.
A little over half the budget is spent on the military. The original purpose of our Federal government was not to give free medical coverage, education, food and housing for everyone that happens to drop by; but instead to provide for defense and even enable Bolshevik college students to openly complain about said defense, without getting their heads cut off by the enemies they wish us to capitulate to.
Fear not! Privately funded companies like SpaceX are flourishing and should get us to Mars within a decade. Just next year NASA is sending the Parker solar probe, and the James Webb space telescope. Space travel is still alive and well.
Dango Gaming Not enough fresh talent applying
Whatney shouldn't be whining about doing self-surgery, he does that all the time in Bourne Identity!
But hes a trained soldier/spy in that. That would be part of his training. A botanist probably wouldnt be train in triage.
***** It's meant to be a joke - Implying that Damon did self-surgery as a badass (Jason Bourne).
+jebes909090 ...but, an astronaut would. To some degree.
Yep. Astronauts get very diverse training, so that everyone could do every job with an acceptable degree of competance. Given how dangerous space is, it's a neccessary precaution. If you only taught one astronaut how to fly the ship and then he died during the mission, they'd all be screwed.
Everyone also has two specialties. Mark Watney's was botany and mechanical engineer, so it's kinda guaranteed that he'd be able to fix complex machinery.

"travel to a world where NASA is fully funded" It's funny, because it's true! it *is* a different world
It's the future. 2035-2036 I would hope NASA had more funding by then.
Sad but true
why does he have to eat baked potato and waited to be saved from "Murph"
Kinda continuation of Interstellar.
muuuurph
+Daniel Lee don't let me leave Muuurph
*raw potatoes
*Also this was based of an awesome book. This is not at all an continuation of interstellar. The only similarity is Matt Damon stuck in space. That wasnt even the main plot in intsteller.
+Carter Grycko no. not raw. he microwaved the potatoes.
+Andrew V, after he grew them on a planet where nothing grows!
I still have nightmares about this movie. Now I can't see any Matt Damon movie without thinking he will jump out of the screen and use his botany powers on me.
Hollywood can't keep paying to rescue Matt Damon.
+xtkj301x Well anytime he isn't getting rescued it is because he is either stealing stuff (Ocean's) or blowing stuff up and murdering fools (Bourne).

+Xmus Jaxon Flaxon-Waxon III If they had balls they'd do it...
I'll be honest, this Honest Trailer wasn't all that funny.
+Victim of Lag Agreed. It was ok, but the problem is the movie was too good to make fun of. The best part was the beginning with all the times Matt Damon's been saved in movies and even that was pointed out by others online when The Martian hit theaters.
+doughbafett nah this movie wasn't good, just as predictable and generic as every other "guy stranded on a foreign place and has to struggle for life" movie
+doughbafett The movie wasn't that good. I mean really, why would they choose a terrible genre of music to be the soundtrack. And why were we asked to believe that a plastic tarp would hold back the same sort of storm that knocked Damon hundreds of feet away from his crew?
+Victim of Lag Spencer is realllllyyyy getting lazy with these.
+dallashood67 It almost felt like that, yeah.
"Don't let him leave, Murph!"
Honetsly i was cirnging watching that scene
DO 'THE WATCHMEN' HONEST TRAILERS
Funking do it
Yes do it
Yes
Watchmen? Yeah, that movie was alright, book was much better though.
Please do it
Ummmm.... Mark Whitney (the main character), besides being a botanist he's also the engineer for the mission
Thank you!
Thats in the book not the movie
They all had systems and medical training. And it's not specifically excluded in the movie.
I hate it when reviewers don't acknowledge that he probably has more than a botany role and more extensive training even if it's not said in the movie. Like seriously. Tons of reviewers just whine and say "Why can he do all this shit if he's just a botanist?" Maybe because he's a fully trained astronaut. One of the most highly skilled humans on, and off, Earth.
It's.... Its watney...
so Matt Damon is the ultimate damsel in distress
I have an equal amount of love for this movie and the book. Matt was simply the perfect choice for Watney. Easily one of the most rewatchable films ever!
MUUUUUUUURPH
DONT LET ME LEAVE, MURPH!
Through time and space, love transcends MURPH!
DONT MAKE ME LEAVE LIKE THIS MUUURPH!

"The Maaahtian."
I died.
+TheAndrewj96 , i didn't get that bit.. was it a reference to one of Matt's films?
Cameron Mcclintock It's probably a reference to _Good Will Hunting_ and/or _The Departed_, which both star Matt Damon and are both set in Boston. Or maybe it's just because Matt Damon is from the Boston area. Either way, "The Maaahtian" is just "The Martian" with a Bostonian accent.
yes

+Salma Mohamed Stressed Out
I really enjoyed this movie. If I can, I will probably read the book at some point. Best recent space film I've seen in awhile.
Tucker Cooper the book is even better believe me
One for the few times for me where the movie is better than the book.
The book is amazing and really funny
The movie is actually incredibly faithful to the book. The book just adds some extra science and scenes but otherwise almost identical.
Book is even more awesome.
Man.. If you think that's math, then you should really read the book.
I read the book the year it came out, I had no idea it came out not too long ago. I thought it was old
Oh my good yes
+Sharath SH ....sounds really cool but....also kinda boring for the readers....and complex thingy
it's just a piss take with the amount of math in it. 😂 I mean yeah its good to see some hard-core problem solving but Jesus Christ, they really over done the maths in the book 😂
+Cameron Mcclintock did you really just say 'maths?'
can you do an honest trailer on the good, the bad, and the ugly?
+Nicholas Slaughter Yes, love that movie!
+Nicholas Slaughter They really should, 2016 is that movie's 50th anniversary!
Yes!! Favourite movie of all time. Do the Good the Bad and the Ugly!
Yes!!! It's my favourite movie! :)

+The Dream is not dead yeah true it is more of a mini-series
The Dream is not dead i know its not technically a TV show but i meant the series aha
probably the only hollywood movie to utter measurements in metric. honestly, i was surprised they didn't say 16 pound-foot or 5 kips.
It is wrong for any movie to use anything but the metric system when it comes to science. Even here in the U.S.A. our scientists use the metric system. Its the universal measuring system for science and math
NASA uses Metric system.
So any movie that uses NASA, in order to be accurate would have to use Metric system and metric measurements.
So the other movies which don't use the metric system are being inaccurate on purpose just so that stupid people can understand it ?
Ayla7650 Either that or they don't research their subject matter properly
i mean, he didn't have to torque anything down, so there was no need to bring in ft-lbf's/Nm's. if they did, i imagine they would've had an entire chapter explaining why ft-lbf only applies to Earth, what the conversion to ft-lbf on Mars would be, then go on to "that's why they use ft-lbm", before ending the chapter with "but we're scientists, so we use Nm, and here's the math for that conversion."
The book was a LOT more foul mouthed then the movie! They toned it way down to get the PG13 rating.
The Borg Depending on the content of the movie you can get away with a bit more. They actually dropped it twice that I remember in the movie, right after he finishes sewing himself back up and again when he's bringing the dirt in. The book was a LOT more colorful, especially Annie! That gal didn't know what a filter was! LOL
So, another 'the book was better' whining statement. That's new
Looks like someone has anger issues. Your tone of your comment wqsn't very much in favor of the movie so using rational deduction I'd think you liked to book way better. Or didn't you
+Sevival "Anger issues" No I don't think so, nice try dumbass. And no....no you didn't deduce anything, you stomped in here with a superiority complex with a bad attempt to call me out on something you didn't even read. You were just trolling like a moron. My comment didn't infer anything about weather I liked the book or movie better, again nice try dumbass. Move along now, you lose.

I loved the realism of this movie. It felt like it was based off a real story and in a way I kind of wish that it was because it was so inspiring.
I listened to the audiobook, then watched the movie a couple of weeks later - tbh, I loved them both, and the "documentary" online extras are a real bonus! If you haven't already, WATCH THIS MOVIE!

Not only Mr. Wong but there's a lot of them who takes a part in the MCU including Matt Damon.
@@akaiseigo ☕👍
ABED! and he plays TROY xD
+Edtweet I noticed that too. Not ABED... His name was Troy.
I think that's the whole point of joke. Troy and Abed is amazing duo so they just said one name and it already mean another.
+Eighteen Zero If you watched Community, it's obvious that this is a joke. Unfortunately it's a weak joke to start with and if you don't get the reference it plays a bit like the white bred screen junkies team have difficulty telling apart an African American actor and one from Indian/Polish descent.
+Edtweet They said Abed instead of Troy because the role he played in the movie was more like Abed
+Edtweet they said abed because abed was the smart savant like one on community
Now there's 3 Marvel sidekicks and one villain
Technically it's 4, but one of them eventually becomes a villain,........but yeah.
and Lando
Mordo, Ant-Man's buddy, Winter Soldier, Wong, and Prowler (the bad guy that Donald Glover's character from Spider-Man: Homecoming becomes)
Bucky, Sue Storm, Ant Man's buddy, DR Strange sidekick turned enemy for the next movie, Wong, Spiderman villain guy (Donald Glover)
Sue isn't part of the MCU so I didn't count her :P
That "murphhhh" will have lot of admirers across videos 😊👍
No other movie is more true to it's source material, in my opinion. Book and movie were both fantastic. That being said: Never, ever stop doing Honest Trailers, Screen Junkies.
The Martian actors thoughts on Iron Man:
Matt Damon - "I get to fly around like Iron Man!"
Sebastian Stan - "I get to beat the shit out of Iron Man!"
Well, not wrong there!
You know it's a great movie when Honest Trailer can't find plot holes in a movie
Fear my botany powers!
+Illoosion 'Fear my botanical powers', Sorry, I had to say it, it's been bothering me since I heard it in the movie.
+Niall Grennan Well no, not exactly. He's deliberately referring to it as "botany powers" because it's a joke, it's not meant to make sense. But yes, if we were trying to make sense it would be "botanical"
+Niall Grennan Poison Ivy should say that when she fights Batman

AlbertaGeek yasssssssss
That's because uneducated, ignorant people who aren't smart enough to get a real job, and thus waste their lives mocking movies and smart people, make fun of the things they can't understand.
The dumbing down of American education is a primary reason the culture is in the horrendous state that it is.
The Community reference is giving me LIFE
I imagine that if a person is isolated all by himself for over 30 days, no contact with anybody; he'd go insane if he didn't hold those vlogging sessions.
Agree people all alone do talk to themselves
you're not alone if you have access to internet or any other source of media
It is still human interaction regardless. Try going no TV, no Internet, and no Human Interaction. That's a much bigger step of isolation than no physical prescence. lookingat what other people are saying and talking to other people means that you are not alone.
+Th3Sh1n1gam1 There was an experiment that people who are isolated from other people eventually lose their minds, they begin talking to themselves, start hearing things, seeing things. We aren't a species that can be left alone truly. vlogging sessions are actually used in military for stress relief.
Midnaroo That's the point i'm trying to get across, lol
Surprisingly, a pretty solid scifi. One of the best Mars movie so far.

+MrDeothor I haven't read the book yet... Does the book make the movie look bad bc it was sort of that way with Lone Survivor
+MrDeothor i read the book before watching the movie, it is kinda meh, but is the only book adaptation of a book that i have read that i didn't totally hate, so with that in mind i could say it was a good movie.

+jamesthemaniac It's Childish Gambino
+Mister Fusion Thank God I just seen that episode so I got it lol
ABED?? maybe because he talks like abed.
To be honest, this movie is actually good, for the "realism" of the principles (of course with a lot of covenient resources already established in Mars) applied in Damon´s stuff.

This was the most uninspired Honest Trailer i've seen.
+Jo SefGray yeah it was lacking a lot for me too
+Jo SefGray Usually they have a hard time picking at really good movies.
+Jo SefGray honest trailers almos never work when the movie in question is great and almost flawless. Which is the case of the Martian. Such a well made, well acted movie allaround.
+Joao Leonardo +Carter Kinoy Yea, I had a fantastic time seeing this movie. I see the trouble in making an honest trailer for this
+Jo SefGray For sure. Most of the plot points they pick on are pretty well covered in the movie (why there's a habitation module on Mars with a "car,"; why he's "vlogging" the whole thing, etc.), and the plot points that aren't explicitly explained are extremely nitpicky or not totally unbelievable (like how it is somehow unreasonable to think a meticulously trained astronaut could clean a wound or perform maintenance on their equipment). Just seems like a lot of people were telling them to do The Martian, so they cherry picked a lot of stuff that people who haven't actually seen the movie would find funny.
I got very happy when I learned they made a movie of the book. I never knew it was popular. I just really liked the book bc, well isn't it obvious, i am a science nerd
"Oblivious?" I think you meant "obvious."
@@joshuaburba1048 yup.

Was _really_ hoping for this kind of cameo. Not sure why, just was:
"I dear! There is all of this technology lying around!"
"Who the hell are you?"
"I'm a Martian. Is it okay if I use some of these parts? I want to use them to create weapons for my race. Wouldn't that be lovely?"
