I finished The Martian and then immediately discovered there was a movie coming out in two weeks. That was pretty cool.

No movie was ever going to do the book any justice. The journal-like structure of the book turned every chapter into an adventure, whereas the movie was just a space movie.

It was a very good space movie, though.

It doesn't replace the book, of course, but I thought it stood fine on its own.
