      I didn't understand the whole comedy win , first I heard of it was when judd appatow complained about it. there are moments of humour in it but it's like the force awakens winning the best foreign language film for the bar scene.

        I don't follow the Globes at all and the only thing I can figure is they limit the amount of nominees and Best Picture was already full?

        I think I laughed more reading the book than watching the movie.

            So did I. A damn lot more. The movie is very good, but you don't get one tenth of the humor, depth and finesse from the novel. Not mentioning all the unfortunately necessary shortcuts in the plot...

            I was less disappointed than I expected by that movie, though.

            Best comedy of the year?? Maybe the BOOK was the most entertaining. Did the jury have Weir's novel in mind?

              And about 80% less of the science, which is good because it could have slowed the movie way down.

                That's right too. Maybe not the whole technical and scientifical explanations, but at least a few more of them.

                Going fast is peculiar to that kind of movies though. What a bore, BTW, being bombed with avalanches of changing shots...

                  I thought the movie was a lot better than expected , the book is pretty much unfilmable. It's mainly one bloke cracking gags and lots of tech stuff . The audience for that is probably us 3

                    Yup. Not exactly profitable...

                    My wife would rather read the book first, though she knows she'll be disappointed with the movie.
                    Anyway, I'd rather read the book after seeing the movie than the contrary, in general.
                    Best examples for me were "A Clockwork Orange" and "The Shining".
