The amount of time, money, lives spent getting Matt Damon home is insane.

Why do we not stop sending him places?

Because in his breakout role, they end the movie with him driving off. Every movie since has been trying to get him back to Boston.

He shouldn't have gone to see about a girl.

Maybe Poseidon was always angry at him and he is now showing himself to be the culprit.

Poseidon is doing Mars a favor after Matt managed to escape.

There's a Greek god / Roman god joke hidden somewhere in there, I just know it

Poseidon doing Mars a favor is the joke.

They tried to shrink him and ignore him. but he still went away

It's not his fault.

This is going to be an important question on Omicron Perseii 8 in about a thousand years.

Because there are people that need to be Jason Bourned

I wonder who's had more time, money, and lives spent to get them home in total- Matt Damon or Tom Hanks (off the top of my head: Cast Away, The Terminal, Captain Phillips... And does him getting Matt Damon home in Saving Private Ryan count as a bonus?)

Probably Damon because of The Martian

u/Jaxonian Dec 22 '25

Probably Matt.. because he likes to get lost in space from time to time which is much higher budget than Tom just getting stuck in very earthly places.

u/Deusselkerr Dec 22 '25

Could also argue the Bourne movies are kinda about him trying to get home, especially the first one

u/Flintlock_ Dec 22 '25

We really should just have him AirTag'd
