Well, the next footage from Alfonso Cuarón's 'Gravity' is here and it's...more of the same nail-biting suspense. Again.
The whole movie is like this? 1) How can they maintain this level of juice? and 2) Just how much O2 do those suits have?
They got to get inside somewhere or the movie ends. Yes? So, looks like, by chance, they've landed on (literally) a space station, I guess it's The Space Station, ISS.
What are the odds, though, of hitting this object without being able to guide yourself? Perhaps, that's why Clooney's 'can is empty'. He used up his jet pack to point himself and Bullock at the ISS. Got it.
Fine. That's fine. The footage is stunning but there's stretches of logic and happy coincidences throughout the movie that enable these two astronauts to survive point to point. I don't care.
This might be a good time to stop watching these clips, though. Looks like we're going to get the entire movie 2 minutes at a time. (Okay, I don't care about that either. These clips/trailers have given my life meaning).

Talk About Writing Yourself Into A Corner...More New 'Gravity' Footage
Alfonso Cuarón (and co-writer Jonás Cuarón) have created something special.
It's fair to assume the events in the new footage occur in Act I of 'Gravity'. So, where does it lead? What could possibly happen other than Sandra Bullock's character dying in space? How will the movie sustain Act II? What active 'action' can the protagonist take other than to spin off into space? What, within reason, could possibly intervene and, if it's not reasonable, what could happen that won't leave the audience rolling their eyes?
Great idea. Ballsy to say the least. If the plot holds up this will be one of the most entertaining movies of the year. If it doesn't, well, it'll still be cool to watch...with the sound down.

Poster for 'Gravity'
Kind of cartoony but, still, I like it. I like everything about this movie. Director/writer, actors -- apparently Sandra Bullock and George Clooney are the only people in the movie. There are voices heard on radios but that's it. And, yes, I like that. That is cool.
I like the title. Simple, yet with a certain weight or...gravity.
I like the tag: Don't let go. Nice. Simple, understated yet with a certain...gravity.
Yeah. I like this.
We got a few seconds of footage today so there should be a trailer very soon.
I like that.
'Gravity' is so good that, even if it sucks, it will be very good.
How often does that happen? I like that that's the case.
