Interesting. For what it is worth, even though I pretty much loved Gravity as is and wasn't distracted by that which broke it for you (Sandra's face nonwithstanding), I would totally watch your version.

Are there many people who do listen to FIYH with the movie? That isn't snark, but an honest question. I know the show is formatted around that premise, but most people seem to have a specific place in their lives for podcasts, such as the car, the gym, or at work. Do many people actually listen to it in perfect sync?
JP, would you like the desert version of this movie? Take out the fridge logic issues but leave in Ryan Stone's story. Is that a movie you would enjoy or does her lack of drive in the first half still kill it for you?
Yup, boring old straight white guy. That's me! Nice to meet you Drew.
The point I'm about to try to make can easily be misconstrued but... did Sandra Bullock's face bother anybody else watching this movie? The thing that took me out of this movie the most wasn't the where the science didn't hold up or where the FX didn't hold up. What distracted me the most was her face.
To me, Sandra Bullock's face doesn't look anything like a face one would find in nature. She has a face that clearly has had cosmetic plastic surgery, right? There is nothing wrong with that, of course, but her face totally looks like the face of a woman that has had very good very expensive plastic surgery. Ryan Stone doesn't seem to me like a person who would have that.
To be clear, I am not saying that cosmetic surgery is bad, either aesthetically or philosophically. I am also not saying that it is unheard of for intelligent, resourceful people to also have a sense of vanity. I'm not even saying Bullock shouldn't have been cast, because she kicked some serious butt in this role.
It just seemed like an incongruity to me and it was an incongruity that the camera was focused on for most of the run time. Was it just me?
Isn't this story basically "a jerk does a jerky thing to a super rich guy for a good cause"? That's basically half of all con artist stories. Basically, I'm saying this act of public bullying could be a movie.
Just showed Raiders to my six year old. She loved it. She thought the action was exciting, the heroes wonderful, and the treasure beautiful. Her biggest takeaway of the whole film, however, was the mind-blowing scene where THAT GUY ATE A BUG! DID YOU SEE THAT DAD!! THERE WAS A FLY ON HIS MOUTH AND HE ATE IT! I CAN'T WAIT TO TELL ALL MY FRIENDS ABOUT THIS MOVIE!
