Tyson should stick to killing chickens.

Here’s a spoiler, if you haven’t seen it. IT’S A MOVIE!

Read the book. As a former Rocket Scientist, I can tell you the book is pretty accurate, but the movie was a movie.

You mean it wasn’t a documentary?

Only NDGT is aware of this. The rest of us are too scientifically illiterate.

best to bring back Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson

I don't think is best to bring him in. I once respected his passion for science, but the Cosmos reboot and his comments on Christianity were unfortunate.

His Twitter feed is riddled with comments ridiculing Judeo-Christians; he is a shell of man with no center. Putting science over faith is a folly.

Tyson has accomplished the near-impossible feat of making space travel sound boring.

“In your face Neil Armstrong!”

That one line is why I won’t sit through The Martian.

I’ll still stick with the far superior ‘Robinson Crusoe On Mars’!

Even if they did have to borrow from the earlier, ‘The War Of The Worlds’ for alien spaceships.

...we thought it best to bring back Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson to help us...

A pox on that fool.

Nothing he has to say, about anything, is of interest to me.

Spoiler alert: a diverse group of hyphen-Americans, with the help of our wonderful friends in communist China, team up, prevailing on bad old NASA to spend untold billions of dollars to rescue Matt Damon who is running out of crap to grow stuff with.

Tyson is a jacka$$. A bunch of kids raised 85k for him to speak at their screwl. When he came, he was a self absorbed idiot that just wanted to talk about himself and his problems. Very little about astronomy, physics, space.

If want to watch a movie about Mars, I’ll watch ‘Mars Attacks’, at least they blew up Congress.

Out of respect for the good doctor you should include Tyson’s title which is: “Noted Atheist and Egotist Neil deGrasse Tyson”.

Yes, there were some contrary-to-fact things in the movie, but I liked it and would go again.
Radio signals to Mars take longer than in the movie. But it’s a movie!

Read the book, much better than the movie. If they included all the science and explanations in the movie, it could have been a Trilogy.
