I haven't read this yet, but loved the Martian. Hope this movie is just as good.

Read the book late last year (got a signed copy from ComicCon)

It's cool. Not as good as The Martian, but a fun space-colony-as-frontier-town adventure all the same. I love Lord/Miller, yet I was a little disappointed that they're already signed to direct. I was just thinking how Lexi Alexander would be astonishingly perfect for this kind of story.

I'm also wondering how they're gonna pull it off, since the whole thing is in lunar gravity. This might seriously be a good one to mo-cap.

They need to look at how Cuaron shot Gravity.

This is what I am looking forward to the most. If they decide to go the easy way and make Artemis having some kind of gravity machine, thus giving the city the same gravity as earth, then I don't really see the point for this film.
