The interesting thing about this debate is that so many of you hated Avatar for the same failing of Gravity. That is a fact.
Not a fact, that's being FAR too reductive.
And Gravity is nowhere near as bad as some make it out to be. I think Gravity finds a weird niche in that it isn't about turning your brain off like say a loud action movie, it's about letting yourself get sucked into the tension. Either you do or you don't. The experience of it, the visuals, are a part of that.
Either you do that or you don't and that really shapes the experience.

I haven't seen you or any of the major defenders of the movie try to defend the plot. So yes, it is a very similar debate to the Avatar debate.
You simply refuse to step back and see the similarities.
Both had stunning visuals and 3-D. Both had to be seen only on the big screen in 3-D.
Both had bad plots and dialog. Avatar had questionable character development. Gravity had none.
You and most of the defenders hated Avatar and yet you use the SAME argument PRO Gravity that you fought against for Avatar. yes, it is a fact.
