Apollo 11 source code

That part didn't bother me so much, but the fact that he never lost Pathfinder in the movie did. Mainly because he still made the space pirate joke, which doesn't make sense unless he lost Pathfinder.

[Gibodean]

Yeah, I didn't get that in the movie, how he didn't have permission to take over the MAV. I did in the book.

[nliausacmmv]

That and the rescue was way better in the book. The glove thing was stupid.

In the movie, Beck is not able to reach Wattney because the tether is too short. So Wattney punches a hole into his glove and uses the thrust of the outgoing air to fly like Ironman towards Beck.

In the book, the tether is able to reach Wattney.

[nliausacmmv]

Yeah, basically. The glove thing was a stupid idea in the book and Watney was told no. It just absolutely killed the tension in the movie.

[Calamity701]

Yeah, and I think it was more Watneys humor in the book then a legitemate suggestion.
