However , the movie change an over-the-top number of characters and secret plan point to the point where it ’s unmanageable to callMickey 17a true adjustment ofMickey 7at all .

Mickey 17 Changed How Many Multiples There Are & Mickey 18’s Personality
The Book’s Mickey 8 Wasn’t As Aggressive & Violent As Mickey 18 Is In The Movie
Mickey 17added ten more late looping of Mickey than the bookMickey 7 . While there were some similarities in how the earliest versions of Mickey died , there were additional versions ( 13 - 16 ) in the picture show that were used as research lab rats for biohazardous viruses , radiation exposure , and the like to germinate vaccines . Nasha did continue with early Mickey ’s as they give out in the lab but she never go into the actual tank car to hold him as he died , as portray in the flick . to boot , no Mickey had his helping hand break up while repair a starship as seen in the film , which made for a memorable cinematic scene .
As for Mickey 18 himself , who is essentially conjecture to be the equivalent of Mickey 8 in the book , his personality is completely dissimilar as he is more fast-growing , violent , and mean than the book ’s Mickey 8 . TheMickey 7book stresses the idea of Mickey ’s one honest identity being replicated , which made Mickey 8 virtually an accurate carbon copy of Mickey 7 , including his personality . Mickey 17made it so each Mickey had unlike mode , behaviors , and personalities , which made Mickey 18 very different from Mickey 17 . In the book , Mickey 8 mostly hang up out in their room and he absolutely did not attempt to assassinate Marshall .
Nasha, Kai & Several Other Characters Are Very Different In Mickey 17
Nasha Was A Pilot & Kai (Named Cat) Betrayed The Mickey’s In The Book
Nasha was a pilot program in the volume , not a security guard . At the beginning of the Holy Writ , Nasha put across with Mickey after he falls into the creeper fix througha telepathic - like inst courier through their retinas , one of several technologies not sport in the movie . Mickey severalize her not to redeem him after Timo , who ’s named Berto in the book , has already leave him for dead . Kai , who is diagnose Cat Chen , in the Good Book , ratted Mickey 7 and Mickey 8 out to Marshall and offered herself to become the Modern Expendable in his position . Dorthoy and Ylfa were add to the movie and are not discussed whatsoever in the novel .
Timo Had A Completely Different Backstory In Mickey 7 & Didn’t Sell Oxyzoful
Berto Was An All-star Athlete Who Mickey Bet Against & Was Not An Oxy Dealer

Timo has a interchangeable backstory to Mickey in the motion picture as they both persist into fiscal trouble with Darius Blank after endow in a failed macaron line of work . In the book , Berto is a successful pog - Lucille Ball participant who Mickey bet against in a tourney , which end up costing Mickey all his money . Berto never faced fiscal hardship like Mickey did . Additionally , Berto did not trade undilated Oxyzoful cartridge in the book . In fact , Oxyzoful , which is used for flamethrower in Mickey 17 , is not a part of Mickey 7 whatsoever .
Although Bong Joon - ho ’s Parasite follow - up is n’t as critically acclaimed as his dear Best Picture winner , he still made another hitting with Mickey 17 .

Berto is suspicious of Mickey 7 being a multiple throughout the account book because he claims he could n’t save him from the comfortableness of his spaceship . Berto never left Mickey for dead face to face , just feet above the hole he fell into , as portrayed at the beginning ofMickey 17 . There are also more futurist weapon in the Koran , not just flamethrowers and machinelike weapons , andMickey 18 never tries to throw Timo into the cycler in the book of account . Mickey does eventually punch Berto at the end of the leger but it ’s more of an jibe - upon turn of forgiveness .
Marshall Didn’t Have A Wife & Was Not Nearly As Idiotic As His Mickey 17 Character
The differences between Marshall inMickey 7and Marshall inMickey 17are seemingly endless . The major differences are that he is not accompany by a wife and he is not as crackbrained as he is in the picture show . Additionally , Marshall in the rule book does not have a television camera crowd around him , is n’t interested in create a ranking slipstream on Niflheim , and does n’t die at the conclusion of the story . The movie claims that Marshall founded the idea of Expendables , which is not true to the record . Marshall also never banned sexual intercourse in the book and never delete Mickey ’s backup brick , although he threaten to in the book .
The Entire Ending Of Mickey 17 Is Not True To The Mickey 7 Book
Mickey 18 Never Sacrifices Himself & Marshall Doesn’t Die
Once certain plot of ground elements set out to unfold in Mickey 17 , I knew that theending ofMickey 17would lead in a near - total deviation from that of the book . InMickey 7 , there is no tree creeper translating twist , no Mickey 18 sacrificial death , no Marshall does n’t , no baby creeper ever make believe it inside the covered stadium , and no governmental committee . Mickey does become a affair between humankind and the creeper but only becausethe creeper probe Mickey 6 , learned how to communicate through Mickey ’s telepathic - like instantaneous messaging feature film , and recognized Mickey as " Prime " .
Paddy 8 does break in the book after walking into a nest of creepers but it is not sacrificial and is actually quite plain .
Mickey was able to leverage the value of his life because of his connection to the creepers , which did inspire greener days in front in the book . The human pressman , however , was not abolished or destroyed , Nasha never rank up in the governmental citizens committee , and no creeper " bluffed " about an volatile screech . The crawler in the Bible were not personalized , being key out as having a hive nous that did n’t prize an single life . This means that they would never have attacked the human dome to deliver the baby tree creeper . WhileMickey 17is entertaining in its own right hand , calling in an adaptation ofMickey 7feels like a stint .
