The movie "The Martian" with the famous actor Matt Damon came to the big screens about 10 days ago.
The project is based on a novel by Andy Weir and is pure science fiction from start to finish. The theme is that, as it turns out, the script is so convincing that some consider the film based on true events.
And of course the eagle-eyed people out there didn't let such an opportunity go to waste. Someone named Kyle Douglas M started a GoFundMe campaign asking for money to save Matt Damon from Mars.
We read with despair and skepticism what Douglas writes:
"One of the greatest actors in Hollywood right now is trapped on Mars after a failed exploration. We need Matt back on Earth, otherwise he's not going to be in another "Bourne" movie.
Matt is also a close friend of another great Hollywood actor Ben Affleck who needs the support of Matt Damon as he goes through a divorce process. "If we fail to get Matt back, it could be catastrophic in our American lives and have catastrophic consequences for the film if we do not save Matt."
Some people have really donated money!
Η Kyle Douglas's campaign at the gofoundme aims to collect 99 millions dollars (€ 87.000.000). So far he has collected the humiliating sum of $86 (€76). But it's very reassuring to know that there are people out there who care about rescuing Matt Damon from Mars.
However, beyond the plaque and not sure whether Douglas is true, he finally says he will not appropriate any donations but will give it to Water.org where it is a charity campaign of Matt Damon.
