I've had the Gravity DVD for a couple of years. It was on sale. I felt like I should watch it, to know what the hype was about. I finally put it in and half-watched it while doing some data analysis. Impressions:

  • It's kind of short: 90 minutes
  • It's a lot more action-packed than I expected for a tense thriller about a damaged space shuttle
  • George Clooney doesn't steal the show, and his character is very self-deprecating. That was fun.
  • Sandra Bullock takes her pants off a lot
  • #movies #gravity #space #HalfNakedLadies

    @guyjantic you had me at 90 minutes and then lost me at sandra bullock takes her pants off a lot
    @emily_rugburn I was only half-watching. I admit I looked up every time she did. I plead (a) attracted to women, (b) lived through the 90s, and (c) Sandra Bullock.

    @guyjantic i retort with 1. crash (the non-cronenberg one) and 2. the blind side

    heh

    @emily_rugburn A lot of people I know loved The Blind Side, but it's pretty hard for me to get into sports movies, especially when the sport is one associated with unhappy adolescent experiences (same reason I don't get all gaga about cowboy movies). But Crash is one I've been meaning to watch For. Ever. It sounds pretty intense and deeply weird.
    @guyjantic the cronenberg one right?????
