“The Martian” star Matt Damon has had it easier surviving on Mars than getting on Jimmy Kimmel’s show, so on Monday the pair finally tried to resolve their issues. While Kimmel defended the prolonged delay by noting his one-hour show has other guests, a band, a monologue and “important commercials”, the pair quickly started sniping at each other. “Listen, I understand his point of view, but he has to understand my point of view”, the show host says. He talks the talk. “He thinks the world revolves around him…. I mean, people laugh every time I say it…Repeating the same joke every single night, you’d think eventually people would get exhausted of it, but they don’t”.
