Realistic space movies (not calling it sci-fi ) are not as popular overseas. It won't touch Life of Pi numbers.
-
Surprised that it got a PG-13 rating (because of one scene). -
Digged the movie. I liked the sentimental touches. Here they worked, unlike in Elysium. And when the music soars you go "oh, yeah, that's pretty awesome". Unfortunately, i couldn't enjoy the 3D because the 3D sucks in our theaters lately, crosstalk galore. Incompetent fuckers! And they wonder why 3D is losing steam in some corners...

Pretty much that's how my reaction is gonna read.
-
I haven't either. But in my case it's easy, i'm not eager to see the movie. Which is good, hype is a double edged sword.

The thing is, once Ahnuld opens his mouth, hilarity ensues. Dat accent! And his acting hasn't gotten better. I don't want Avatar to be unintentionally funny. I'm saying that as a big Ahnuld fan. Plus we already had Quaritch, i don't need Quaritch 2.

And he was awesome in it. But he played a machine, with barely speaking any words.
-
Please no. I can't imagine him being a convincing baddy.

Good to hear that there's more to it. Not that i can't appreciate a slow movie if the character work is strong but the 1 minute screaming of Bullock in the trailers have been like "whatever" to me.
-
Nah...
-
Deep.

It wouldn't do you any good. You want it in front of your face.
-
We'll find out soon.
-
It's probably overrated. Will i like it? Sure. Will i come out of the theater screaming THAT WAS BLOODY AMAZING!!! Probably not. I dunno, the trailers are interesting but they didn't make me jump on the hype train.
-
I'm giving up...
-
OH.MY.GOD! They all feature fictional science. Replicants, aliens, space ships etc...
-
Bullshit! We have people in space RIGHT NOW! There is nothing sci-fi about it.
-
No. He keeps harping on "you feature space travel, you are sci-fi" nonsense. By that definition, we are living the sci-fi dream RIGHT NOW. Btw, Gravity is not about science. Space just happens to be the setting.
-
Yes, fictional science. Where is the fictional science in Gravity? WHERE?!?!?!
-
THIS IS MADNESS!!! Seriously, how can someone be so dense... Sci-fi is real!!! We have astronauts after all... *lol*
-
Seriously?
-
Yes.
-
Those liberties taken makes it fiction. It is based on a historical event but it's still fiction. And it's irrelevant anyway because sci-fi is not defined by whether the story is fictional. Gravity is not sci-fi because the setting is real, the technology is real. If Gravity would have taken place in deep space and they would have used technology that isn't available today, that would have made it sci-fi.
