Bar none one of the best books I read last year. I thought Jim from the Office would be a better Watney but this looks pretty good so far.

I like Matt Damon, but he's a bit overused.
Wasn't he the astronaut who went around the bend/psycho in "Interstellar"?
And, maybe it's me, but some of the scenery and props look like leftovers from de Palma's "Mission to Mars."
I'll still go see it; I'm a sucker for even half-way decent sci-fi.

Ha. I was just thinking fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I'm not falling for Damon's messages from space again.

The book really is great. So much of it is the main character's humor so I don't know how it will translate to film but it looks promising thus far.
