Even not in 3D or IMAX, it felt very immersive. I can only imagine how it will be with both of those things.dbackdadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10700991588554336491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10882105.post-88971916454578998822013-10-10T13:14:02.715-07:002013-10-10T13:14:02.715-07:00I think I'm naturally more sucked in by the te...I think I'm naturally more sucked in by the technical aspects of the story, and the world made available by that technology (I still marvel at airplanes and my incredibly privileged view of the world because of them), but I think that encourages my already-heightened tendency to look at things too literally. The power of the story comes, in part, from the metaphor to what's going on in Stone's life--as you say. It's *this,* as well as the extraordinary visual world we get to inhabit for 90 minutes, that will give this film its staying power.wstachourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12447198404608861357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10882105.post-61589541743440779972013-10-10T13:11:03.097-07:002013-10-10T13:11:03.097-07:00"I could be way off on my take of Gravity.&qu..."I could be way off on my take of Gravity."<br /><br />Nope. You got to the sinew of the story much better than I did. I'll want to hear what you think after a second viewing. I was lucky enough to get slipped into a members-only (tho I"m not a member) showing in a swanky, high-tech big screen theater in Honolulu, and the large format made the visual awesomeness even more, well, awesome.wstachourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12447198404608861357noreply@blogger.com
