Not a bad looking preview, but it seems to me that those are the only best bits.

Oh...my old war wound? I got that at The Battle of Dorking. Very nasty affair that was, I can tell you. The Ministry of Tea respectfully advises you to drink one cup of tea day...for that +5 Moral Fibre stat.

Be worth a watch, I think, even with Matt Damon being heroic!!

You beat me to it. Alas, I don't have the money to go to the theatre. My School Loans lender has all my money.

I am a fan of Robinson Crusoe on Mars. Haven't seen it in MANY years. Last time I tried to find it on line I had no luck. Need to try again.

If Mars has fire, surely it has oxygen - why is the astronaut not breathing it?

There are aliens in the old movie. Hopefully the new one does not have aliens.

In that case I would like to complain about the lack of airships. Also why doesn't Matt Damon have a handlebar moustache?

Hazzah for additive 60's script writing, why explore the situation at hand when you can just add more and more sh*t to it! Stranded. Great! Aliens! Greater! F**k off asteroid and avalanche too! Drama-gazm! In that case I would like to complain about the lack of airships. Also why doesn't Matt Damon have a handlebar moustache?
Your comedy gold and I love you dearly.

I read the book only a few months ago and liked bits of it a lot. Right, looks like I will have to go and see the film.

The book was one of my all time favorites, Just saw the movie a couple days ago and think its fantastic and one of the best book to movie adaptations I've seen.

I have been told that they were nice enough to put me on the credits of that one.

Yeah, but could you actually see the credits? I don't know why, but they make them so tiny now and roll them by so quickly that I can barely even read the cast, even in the theater. I remember when they took up the width of the screen, in a font size a blind man could read, and didn't roll them at a speed that assumed the audience was full of Evelyn Wood graduates.
Clym, what was it you did so we'll at least have a fighting chance of seeing you in the motor speedway of end credits?

I believe he was the stunt driver for the chase sequence, in particular the spectacular leap over Olympus Mons.

I speak in syllabubbles. They rise to the surface by the force of levity and pop out of my mouth unneeded and unheeded. Cry "Have at!" and let's lick the togs of Waugh! Arsed not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for tea.

I guess I'll have to wait for it to pop up on IMDB like everything else.... http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3705667/I work for Framestore, I deliver stuff digitally and make sure people get the raw footage they need to work. And no I can't tell you anything that's "going on" I've kept my job for 10 years by keeping my gob shut.  Other people have not been that lucky. One thing I can say is the credits are not "full" credits. If they were you'd be in the cinema an extra 20 minutes watching the names roll past. That's why films look so good these days people are literally fired at them. I'm uncredited on a lot of stuff. Doesn't matter. It's a living, and we're making MAGIC man!

I also always watch the credits. Everyone else in the cinema has gone and so miss all the exciting bits, like the strange names of people's jobs and the little extras that get added to the very end of the credits. fun.

I've read the book, and saw the movie. I really, really enjoyed the book - I've read it at least three times already. The movie was very lovely, I really loved seeing the landscape shots so very much. Pretty enjoyable action, the bit with the little flame made me jump, and I completely believed his distress when the hab ran into catastrophe.

I watched the credits, but that's because I was hoping for an end credits scene. I was expecting Mitch Henderson (Sean Bean) to be ran over by a bus, or something to that effect.
