That’s right, we’re tackling the important questions today.
On the one hand, Mark Watney spent years on Mars with tons of free time, during which he probably taught himself how to dance. Plus, he’s quite the character. But he also spent those years completely alone. How would he have known if he were a good dancer or not?
On the other hand, Willy Wonka is a bit of a crazy recluse and doesn’t get out much…but he also has the Oompa Loompas. Maybe they taught him some fantastic dance moves the world has never seen before. (Plus, he’s quite the character, too.)
So, what do you think? Let me know in the comments and vote below!

Movie Wonka is the clear winner if he has to face off against Matt Damon. On the other hand, I’m on team Mark if we’re gonna go against stiff old kindly granpa book Wonka.

I actually haven’t seen the Martian movie! Good point about the different adaptations of characters, though!!

Mark Watney had Commander Lewis’s disco collection and a year and a half to practice. It’s gotta be him!

haha such a funny comparison! I vote Willy Wonka, even though I love Mark Watney, cos I just think he’d have a more unique style!

WATNEY. Obvs. He fists pumps in the book. That’s as good as dancing, right?

Watney for sure. I think having only the Fonz to watch for that long can only make you cooler and therefore a better dancer. Plus I imagine him to have taken the skills of the Doctor (from Doctor Who) and we all know the Doctor can dance.

Ohh, that would be another great dance-off: the Doctor vs. Mark Watney. I’d vote the Doctor for that one, but Watney would definitely have an advantage against Wonka.
