Celebrating the Mars Encounter with a DVD?

Posted by Cliff on from the meeting-the-Red-planet dept.

Berend de Boer asks: "To celebrate the upcoming encounter of The Mars Kind, I like to watch a DVD about Mars with my kids. Is there something worthwhile people can recommend? It should be suitable for younger kids (max 10), so Total Recall 2070 is out the question. It does not necessarily have to be an action film...something educational will be fine as well."

      On the contrary, you could show this to them and then ask them about all the broken science in it. It's so dumb even kids should be able to understand.

  2. What about a homemade DVD? by lawpoop · · Score: 2, Insightful
    Since this is the closest Mars will be before the end of the world, why not bust out the mini-dv cam and make a homemade DVD for posterity?

    You can share it with your grandchildren then.
