Sources disagree on whether The Martian (2015) was shot in stereo or converted.

The only way to watch it in 3D is the Blu-ray 3D, and that is out of print.

This catalogue publishes the disagreement rather than choosing between them. Both are sourced and linked; the reader decides, or nobody does until a third source settles it.

How the 3D was made

The thinnest part of the record

How a film reached the screen in stereo is the part of this record that matters most, and it is the part that is thinnest. What is missing keeps its row rather than being dropped, so you can see where the record stops.

Provenance
Hybrid Shot in stereo, converted afterwards, or a mix of the two.

Conversion house
Prime Focus Page: Prime Focus The company that did the conversion, where there was one.

Who is credited on the stereo

From TMDB, contributed by its users

These are crew credits from TMDB, where the list is written by contributors. Nobody here has checked one against the film's own titles, and TMDB does not say which of its entries have been checked. They are shown because each carries an address you can check it at; they are not evidence of the same weight as the sourced rows above.

Bring him home.

During a manned mission to Mars, Astronaut Mark Watney is presumed dead after a fierce storm and left behind by his crew. But Watney has survived and finds himself stranded and alone on the hostile planet. With only meager supplies, he must draw upon his ingenuity, wit and spirit to subsist and find a way to signal to Earth that he is alive.
