        @deboma imo it's more enlightening than childish. I mean, he isn't ruining the movie. Gravity's heart/beauty/tension made the film great.

        @devincf @neiltyson Cuaron has been one of the first to say that they bent realism a lot here. It’s a piece of fiction.

        @devincf @neiltyson For NASA support? I have no clue, but a film where Bullock orbits the earth and burns up/asphyxiates would suck.
