What's The Last Movie You’ve Seen?

Safetydan said:
The entire movie is scientifically sound with one exception: The lack of atmosphere on Mars prevents wind at even high speeds from pushing anything around.

This is what my dad said. That the whole premise of him getting caught out in some dust storm is impossible on Mars. Not sure if it's true but...

Yeah, the atmosphere is like < 1% of Earth's atmosphere. The wind could be near two hundred mph and it might feel like the equivalent of a gentle breeze on earth.

So is gravity less or more on mars in comparison to earth? Based on the movie i assume it's more since it always seemed like damon was really laboring when he would walk about mars surface outside the station

Gravity is way less. I think it's just the fact that spacesuits are heavy as ****.

I want to say Mars is like 1/3rd gravity, so 100 lbs is like 33 lbs on Mars, but the suits they wear outside are easily over 250 lbs and he was malnourished.

So a 180 lb man would be like 60 lbs and add 100 lbs for teh suit, so close to the same weigh 160 lbs.

Thanks for the info
 
Got to say The Hateful Eight is probably my least favorite Tarantino film. Not bad by any stretch, but did not live up to my expectations.

So final thoughts? I mean, I liked it, but it was super long and a very slow movie.

I like it allot. Definitely slow. But I love the dialogue and the actors.

Walton goggins might be my favorite actor there is right now. He needs more roles.

I'm watching The Revenant now

Yeah, Goggins and Jackson were definitely the highlights. I will have to watch it again, like I said, definitely still liked it a lot, but it didn't feel like an instant classic to me like how I usually feel with his films.

The best part was Jackson's monologue about the veteran's son.

Ya that part was awesome.
I also loved the part at the end when jackson was just laughing and laughing about what goggins was saying.

If you haven't watched justified and are able to then I highly recommend it. Goggins portrayal of Boyd Crowder is my favorite character of all time. Beating out mconahey as rust cole
