whenever Matt Damon encounters an airlock something has to blow up

When Mark Watney when back inside the rover, eating his meal, and writes the letter to whoever the next astronaut to find the rover and he patting it, it got me thinking and yes it was like saying "goodbye friend thanks for saving me" almost like saying goodbye to your favorite toy.

I love how Watney is the polar opposite of Doctor Mann.

Imagine launching yourself into space with the only thing protecting you from the vacuum of space, other than your space suit, is a fucking TARP

Such a fantastic scene exposing the mind of most men..."I do like the way it sounds"..

Imagine the worth of these relics once they are recovered and send to earth. Holy fck.

“Because you’re launching me in a convertible.” Elon Musk: “Interesting.”

Don't care what anyone else thinks or how non-scientifically correct this movie is. This is by far one of the greatest films that Matt Damon has ever been a part of. This movie right here is his acting skill at its peak. He truly shows how even the greatest of people can overcome the absolute impossible. That takes wonderful acting skill

And this, kids, is when Abba became cool for space geeks.

i love this scene, the music really gets you hyped. this guy has spent 18 months living in a tiny dome and after journeying across the planet, today is the day he might finally get to go home.

this movie was extremely tense, this was a nice dance break

The amount of 70s, 80s and 90s songs that were used in The Martian made this movie more fun and enjoyable to watch. Ngl, when i saw this in theater and the songs were played, i began lip syncing cuz i absolutely love the songs, i mean who doesn't??

Love this movie. I think it would have been great, when he pulled down the lever and nothing happened, if the music had stopped. Then, it started back as he pressed the green button.

It was so weird that Jessica Chastain and Matt Damon were in super popular space movies within roughly one year.

when this sweet music is dimming into howling wind you can feel it.

The problem is the insane plan was the only plan with a possible good ending. It's not as if plan "B" was better: that was basically figure out how to live as long as possible all the while accepting you will die quite young and alone." The best they could do is promise to recover his body someday and give him a nice grave at Arlington. In his shoes I would have absolutely taken plan "A". Live, or die trying!

Mark Watney: Space pirate, fastest man in the history of space travel, colonizer of mars

Loved this movie, and the fact that I knew all the songs made it really fun.

Quite good movie and probably one of Matt Damons best work.

Mars has less than 1% discernable atmosphere compared to earth, so there really isn't much aerodynamic pressure to be concerned about.

I didn't know this song was from abba when i watched the movie, it passed unnoticed to me, till last month that i started listening to them and became a fan and when i listened to that song it had a kind of familiar vibe to me, now i know why. LONG LIVE ABBA, and scientifically accurate movies too lol

As a 17 year old high school student pursuing engineering. This is one of my favorite movies because it shows teamwork and problem solving at its finest and it shows how engineers think.

Reading the lyrics to the song makes me think that scene fits perfectly.

Ok, tell the truth. When Mark uncovered the red lights on the top panel and then looked to the bottom panel. How many people pursed their lips wanting to blow away the dirt?

“I’m sorry sir I must have tapped over that”

All he wanted to do was go home here and in interstellar too...

I love that Abba went along to Mars!

One of my favorite sci fi movies ever , good story , good actors , and a good ending . .

"You know what, I know you're playing me." "And you're right."

Dude should have got an oscars for his acting in this movie.

I wish mark would've sent his videos and recordings to NASA and have there be an extra credits of people reacting to it

I loved that they used Disco music for this movie. as a 70s - 80s kid my heart was so happy.

I would have liked a bit more with the ascent craft, such as Watney making voice contact with NASA and him eating some real food and such.

The theatre LOVED this music!!! Omg it was perfect.

Love the Sound when the Computer checks and load the functions.

Having built wood and metal things using the right tools and the wrong materials, I can admire this scene. Sure, he had all the right power tools and such to take everything apart...but I bet that nosecone was lifted on with a crane. He's been on short rations for a year and has likely lost a third of his muscle mass or more...and he has to shift a motorcycle off the top of the ship.

Ridley Scott loves that Muriel's wedding movie - including this song probably gave him a smile :)

This scene, specifically this video, introduced me to abba and now I love their songs!

I hope he picked up his litter.

ABBA is forever... We shall be known for seeing space across vast distances and ABBA...

Fantastic movie!

Best movie soundtrack ever!

I love this movie and have listened to the qudiobook Waaaay too many times- the film needs an extended version

नासा के वैज्ञानिकों का धन्यवाद करता हूं उनकी वजह से मैं मंगल ग्रह देख पाया और बहुत कुछ समझ पाया । आपकी भी इसी वजह से मैं मंगल ग्रह के बहुत सारी चीजों को देख पाया हूं समझ पाया हूं । वैज्ञानिकों का धन्यवाद

All I see is Muriel and Rhonda performing

Every time I watch the scene I'm marvel at the precision

The script sooo ROCKS!

Aliens visit Mars Intergalactic Park "Look at these humans, always leaving trash"

*Conjures Eifel 65 💿 to him.*

It will be a fine documentary.

The hilarious comedy The Martian.

Honestly the disco is one of the reasons I love the book so much

This is basically how I play KSP. Shed weight and add thrust for optimal results.

With a beard he looks like Leonardo Dicaprio

Love that the "dash cam" is just a GoPro... some of the corners they cut on set design on this amazing film crack me up.

I love how he is using a air driven impact wrench in space, like where does the air compressor to run it get its air from

Best line as he contemplates taking a ride on the convertible: "...so I won't raise any objections to this LUNACY." As if the phases of earth's moon will make him crazy on Mars :-)

Super film.

When first time watching ang listening this song, idk if this is ABBA's song, till last monthbI heard this song somewhere, and thinking where was I the first time hearing this song? Finally, I found the answer. Thank you

i really like that song lol

Mark Watney, the first man to litter on Mars.

This is a good flick

Oh my That soundtrack…, the haunting, running sound of hope ❕

I gotta say, that is a catchy tune.

I wish they would have made the parts fall more slowly and have less of a thud when they hit the ground

This is the equivalent of Top Gear ripping their cars down to the barest frameworks (except Oliver) to make it across the Botswanan Salt Flats.

"Because you're launching me in a convertible." Anyone else flash back to the "Radar Rider" opening scene from the Heavy Metal movie?

You know... I really do love this movie but I hate the way they frickin insisted on making it windy as hell on Mars. For those of us that know a little bit about the atmosphere of Mars, it's a _glaring_ oversight. Even in one of the massive, planet wide dust storms, you would barely get enough wind force out of it to ruffle your hair. The air is just way too thin for any kind of Earth-like wind to exist. If the air were thick enough to create the wind effects you repeatedly see in the movie, 90% of his problems wouldn't have existed and he might have thoroughly enjoyed his stay there.

ABBA and space? Yes please

Great movie

We are going. And it will be majestic.

Title: (HD) Player: 480p; take it or leave it.

exactly how i feel ALONE in foreign planet this movie has been my life

Survivor: cameraman

Mitch Henderson : He's not even got to the bad parts yet. Vincent Kapoor : Well, let's get to the bad parts. Bruce Ng : We need to remove the nose LR, the windows, and the whole of panel 19. Vincent Kapoor : You want to take the front of the ship off? Bruce Ng : Sure. The nose alone is four hundred kilograms. Vincent Kapoor : You want to send a man into space without the front of his ship? Bruce Ng : Well, no. We are going to have him cover it with HAB canvas. The hull is mostly there to keep air in. Mars' atmosphere is so thin, you do not need a lot of streamlining. By the time the ship is going fast enough for air resistance to matter, it'll be high enough that there will be practically no air. Vincent Kapoor : You want to send him into space under a tarp? Bruce Ng : Yes. Can I go on? Vincent Kapoor : [exasperated] NO! The casting in the movie is just perfect.

Thing that got me about this was all the nuts and bolts that were allowed to fall in the space craft and not removed. If weight is everything then they should have been removed

you know. I should probably actually watch this movie. The book was fantastic.

Speaking with his mouth full...leave him there, call off the rescue.

Your ABBA movie is Mama Mia My ABBA movie is The Martian We are not the same

Matty you pull out the stoppers....You and the creatives made me think I was on F--- MARS yo. Do they say Yo en Boston? No that is Philly. haha Love ya Matty!!!!!!! UNCLE RICH

"I'm sorry, sir. I must've taped over that." 😂

Abba yea..kickin..

After looking at all the comments about the wind issue, I decided to run some calculations. Wind force is proportional to air density times the square of the wind speed. Average surface air density is about 0.02 kg/m^3 on Mars, about 1.225 kg/m^3 on Earth. Wind speeds in the strongest Martian storms peak at about 60 MPH, so if you solve for an equal wind force the equivalent wind needed on Earth is about 7.7 MPH. So whoever said the strongest Martian storm would have same direct wind effect as a light breeze on Earth was exactly correct. The real issue would be the dust, which gets electrostatically charged and clings to everything.

Right to repair.

The most insane over the top thing about this scene is that Matt Damon's beard is CGI

I have to confess that I'd have picked up and tossed out all of the loose bolts, spacers, and washers I could find.

Istg if matt damon keeps blowing up airlocks on planets

Dear Gods, this movie has actually made ABBA vaguely tolerable to my ears. DAMN YOU, Ridley Scott!!!

I love disco and Matt Damon

The only unrealistic thing in the entire movie are the winds on Mars. The winds of the sandstorm to start, and even the winds on the chute he covers the top of the rocket with.

fun fact they actually stranded matt damon on mars and launched him in this thing.

The Martian When the Ascent vehicle lands on the Mars should be in the deleted scenes.

The SCRIPT owns this FILM....OMG

I was confused as to why this was called the "Waterloo scene" and then the song started and I was like "oh yuck fou".

Who came here after watching an entirely unrelated movie or TV show and needed to post it online rather keeping a personal journal of the their day's events?

Starship will play Waterloo on first Mars mission…..wait and see

This song fits better here than it ever did in Mamma Mia. Fight me.

Legend come here just because they recently saw this movie.

"F*ck it we ball" The Scene (tm)

Have not watched this but am I right in thinking he is going to blast off in that striped down CM??!!??
