I mean there was a bit in the book where they bring the global warming scientist in. But then immediately after they are telling the scientist WE GOTTA UP THOSE NUMBERs and thinking of plans to turbocharge global warming, so it balanced out.

How is that social commentary? There are scientists who focus on that and other climate models. And yes, understanding what can cause warming would be useful in that situation, like how to accelerate the addition of more methane into the atmosphere or ways to reduce surface albedo

I've been working on him for a while. I have hundreds of sci-fi/fantasy books in boxes in the basement. It could be a treasure trove if he gets into it. He's read the Ender series, Harry Potter (blah), and some other random stuff.

Man that is awesome. My mom got me into reading. She loved Crime novels and pretty much anything Steven King.

I FINALLY got to see this, and I think it was great.
The ending was rushed, most of the changes seem to have clearly been made as a result of it already being to long, I heard rumor of a four hour cut(?)
The effects were amazing, and it was very faithful to the story, great movie, hoping they have a director cut that fleshes out the last part of the movie and makes it more in line with the book, wish I could have seen it in IMAX

I saw this today due to cheap movie day. Really good movie. It kept my attention 100% of the time, and it's long. 157 minutes (2 hours, 37 minutes). Now to buy the steelbook so it can happily sit next to The Martian, which I have the 3D steelbook of.

Loved the book, loved the movie.
I was a little disappointed but not surprised that Ray Porter (audiobook narrator) wasn't the voice of Rocky but finding out that Rocky wasn't just CGI and was actually a puppet AND the voice used was the lead puppeteer and was recorded during the takes is waaaay better.

Book readers , while I did read the book , I didn't recall this part. Was Ryan Goslings character in the book
I'll add this and the Martian to my reading list but man I am having a blast with Dungeon Crawler Carl so it will be a while.
really such a coward they had to drug him and put him on the ship?

Yes, it was a pretty important part of his character because up until that point I kind of assumed he had nutted up and heroically signed up to the journey. Him bitching out in such a dramatic way was really the first time you saw him as a weak character. And of course him being given basically the same dilemna at the end and choosing the other path to courageously save Rocky showed his character growth.
