The film of the Martian Chronicles is very different from the book, it is more cheesy, and it is more made up, The movie was made ages ago and makes the movie not as realistic. Some things such as the actors, the actual film and how old it looks, and the content of the film. All the equipment in the film is all things that are out of date now and are different from things now. All the characters are the same as the book but they are different than how I pictured them. the film makes it look not realistic at all the spaceships looks like they are drawn and made up, and the equipment in the ships looks fake, the Martians look like they are robots and not actual actors, and they act very robot-like. All in all the movie and the book have some similarities and there are some things that are not alike at all.
The very beginning of the movie with the rover on Mars, was not in the book. There was Rock Summer, which was in the book. Spender was mentioned briefly after the rocket launched. The press conference never happened in the book. It started with Mr. and Mrs. Ylla. Colonel Wilder is shown, so is Captain York. Everyone wanted praise and attention. The Martian hut wasn't how I pictured it. It didn't look as advanced. The Martians didn't have brown skin with gold eyes. Mr. Ylla killed York.
The technology isn't very grate compared to now.The applause is different from in the book from the movie because they are applauding more in the movie as to when the appluded them in the book they wanted more praise.
That the space crafted landed did not see the city but did land on the ridge close to it. It showed something that was reminded me of the earlier chapter Rocket Summer. The applause was not as intense but when they were leaving the were applauding some things that have not even happened yet. It was cool how when they just got to the martians the movie showed how they were using their telapoalth mind to think of something that would happen. Then the bees are the same with the husband and the mask. This was when he was trying to hide his emotions.
In the beginning when the first expedition takes off, it's like the chapter rocket summer in the book. In the book, we don't have a part where the astronauts tell people about their expeditions to Mars before they take off, but in the movie, that part is included. The movie also has the characters Yll and Ylla like the book does, and Ylla dreams about York and the rocket. Yll also kills the astronauts with his bee gun in the movie.
Caitlin Wilcox It started differently than the book. It has started with the rocket summer. In the movie, it is showing all of the behind the seen things like them having a press conference and in the book the rocket just took off and it said how the temperature changed in the town and how it was snowing but now it is hot. The movie is showing more of what happened before they left to mars. The way they describe the Martians in the book is very different then what they look like in the movie.
In the film, it says that the Martians sent a space probe to Earth and that is in the book in the beginning. Rocket Summer was in the film and Bradbury talks about all the rockets that were launching into the atmosphere according to the time they were going up. Spender was getting interviewed by all of the people that wanted to know what his project was on the mission of the rockets launching up to Mars. All of the people working in the lab are setting and making the changes they need to make for the rocket to launch into Mars, and in the text, Bradbury talks about all of them getting the applause about what hasn't even happened yet with the rockets launching. The Martian was envisioning York and what he was going to do the Martians while the rocket was in the atmosphere. When the Martian was by herself, her husband came back to her and he had his mask on with his sword.
The text and film differ in a few different ways, for example the first chapter rocket summer. In the book it has the rocket summer in a neighborhood not the launch pad like in the film. Also in the book one of the stories many things was that spender went along with them and went a little crazy, in the film he stayed behind instead. Another difference is the way the story flows, the book has it in a viewpoint mostly on those on mars at least in the begging. The movie has it that we see mostly nasa's view of the missions and how the first people landed on mars. The book more or less hops from story to story, while the movie has more background to the stories. They have some similarities in both. They share the same basis of the stories, like how the wife had the vision of the landing, and how the husband then kills the astronauts.
In the Martian Chronicles Film Excerpt, some text differences is the movie started with a rocket landing on Mars, but the book started right away with rocket summer. In the movie, there is a press conference at the beginning with the leaders of the first mission, but the book doesn't have that. Some similarities are the same people who visited Mars in the book visit Mars in the movie. Another similarity is the Earth people are praising the Earth men going to Mars in the movie, and they are expecting all this credit, just like in the book. In the book, the first mission to Mars and the Martian couple are separate stories, but in the movie they are combined. Also, the movie was a lot more unrealistic than the book.
In the scene where the rocket launches, we notice similarities between the video clips and the text. We see that the term "rocket summer" shows up in both the book and the videos. We also begin to understand why the astronauts arriving on mars expect a great welcome; it is what they were given before leaving. One other example that I noticed is that when we see the first glimpse of martians, narrations are taken directly from the book. I noticed that there were many examples of text alignment while there were also many differences.
In the film "Martin Chronicles," they mentioned names that were the same in the book like Spender. When the humans arrive, they want to be cheered for and they don't. I thought that in the book Bradbury made the martins more human sounding like than they really are, and in the film they looked like humans. The martins are weird and all, but they act a little like humans. Also in the beginning of the film there was a rover and there was't a rover in the book. The film is different and the same in the film.
Don't judge at first view. the eye can only see so much you have to dig to see the more important things. A Lot of detail is left out. The humans are praising the astronauts as they head out so going to mars they expect paise. The martians are predicting the humans coming.The husband is mad about her vision and the husband wants to know everything. The husband came back and yella is mad she was lied to. she knew that he didn't actually go hunting.
The first scene in the movie shows a rocket taking off from Earth. This is similar to the book, and did not have any differentiation. There were added scenes in the film that were not in the book, most likely to add background and introduce the characters. When they were introducing the house of Yll and Ylla, it used the exact words of the text. The image of the house helped a lot to understand what Bradbury was suggesting the house to look like. When the first men arrived on Mars, the same thing happened with Yll; Yll had gone out and killed both of the Earth men. Overall, the film was accurate to the book. The only major differences where in the details of before the first trip to Mars and other background knowledge.
Right away, I noticed that the film excerpt made the story seem more like a documentary. The beginning of the book has a better beginning and hook compared to the banal narration of the film excerpt. The visual effects of the film weren't...the best. I personally preferred the visuals I created in my own mind. Some of the scenes seem forced. It's clear that the writers attempted to tie the different stories together more than they were in the book. I personally feel that they should have kept the stories separate. It might have been more interesting if they made a sort of tv series out of the book. If each episode was a different chapter, then the episodes could combine to create the full story. I also find the narration to be obnoxious and redundant. This is another example of the book being better than the movie.
The Film and book rendition of “The Martian Chronicles” compare and contrast in the various ways. The Film goes more in-depth with Rocket summer than the text did, it includes an unscripted Q and A conference with the astronauts. Also in the film, Spender Is left on earth during the first launch and they go more in-depth with the characters. In the film and book, on Earth the astronauts get prise for what they are doing, so they are expecting the same on mars-same glory. The Marian house is basically is the same in the book and film. They do not show Yll killing astronauts like the book, but it does show how humans react to their deaths.
The film, The Martain Chronicles appeared to be loosely based on the book by Ray Bradbury. While there were some elements that the movie had but the book didn't vis visa. The movie goes into more detail than the text did, especially in the Summer Rocket sequence. The movie includes a Q&A with the astronauts that was not in the book. However, the movie did capture the story of Yalla and her husband just as it is told in the book. Overall, the film is a cheesy version of an otherwise good book but was probably good for the 80's.
In the Martian Chronicles film, there are many text differences. The film starts by them preparing to get into the rocket. They have reporters asking questions about what is going to happen. But in the book it just mentions the astronauts landing on the moon. They also have older items then it sounds like by the books description. Also one of the reporters ask where Spender is. So I am wondering if he was an astronaut in training or he was planning something. Also the movie was old so it wasn't like technology today. Overall the book and the film have many differences so far, and I am excited to see the future differences.
There were a few things in the movie that was like the events that happened in the book, like the husband killing the two astronauts. But the movie was way more cheesy and it made the events way less realistic. When reading the book I imagined what was happening way different than that. The movie was made a long time ago so of course the quality is not going to be that great. There also were a few things that I do not think happened in the book that was in the movie such as the press conference. The movie was just way different than I would have imagined.
I noticed that some details in the film were very different, and some scenarios were similar. The film probably includes things that are not included in the book, for more cinematic excitement. The book also has no visuals, so the movie could take things from the book and use their own image for the thing, instead of following the exact description. The movie also might not have the technology or objects described in the books.
While watching the Martian chronicles movie, I noticed lots of things. First of all, although there are some similarities between the storyline and move like how different things happen, what is said. But, it starts differently, it is much less detailed than the book and very cheesy. Also, I saw that it was kind of just based on the some parts of the book, not completely the same like I expected.
