Eyewitnesses reported that during last nights 9:15pm Real3D screening of Gravity, a lone man (later identified as retired ISS Commander Chris Hadfield) began muttering under his breath and chuckling to himself. By the 30-minute mark, Hadfield reportedly made numerous rude comments such as, Nice Soyuz procedure, Hollywood! and Oh yeah, because thats what hypoxia as caused by rapid cabin decompression looks like you idiots!. It was the damndest thing, recounted Isabelle Tremblay. My boyfriend and I were like, what a jerk, and he went back to talk to him. But then he came back to our seats and he was like Im pretty sure that was that astronaut guy. You know, from the news. So we just let him go. I mean, what do you do? An astronaut probably gets George Clooneys character struggles a little better than I do. Hadfields alleged berating of the film continued unabated. During one crucial and deathly silent scene involving Sandra Bullocks characters desperate attempt to reach her vessel and avoid dying in the void of space, the man who brought honour and fun to Canadian space exploration let out a long, piercing, and altogether perfect fart. Eventually, theatre staff was notified, and the Canadian living legend was loudly removed from the cinema. Witnesses report that he did not go quietly. One patron recalled, The last thing I heard him yelling was, Have you been to space? Because Ive been to space! But hes still a hero, I suppose. At press time, Commander Hadfields family and friends were really hoping he never finds out about the 1996 horror classic: Leprechaun In Space. http://tinyurl.com/l59u9rv -- Religion: together we can find the cure. |

It was and remains a great movie. At that age my imagination was focused on things other than a long, boring love story. |

I understand fiction and if it is sold as fantasy like Superman, I can suspend disbelief long enough to enjoy it but these movies are sold as being somewhat of a plausible reality and I just have problems with the whole premise. I enjoy a good roadrunner cartoon too but they don't try to sell it as being something you are supposed to believe. Same here, I'd just as soon watch travel shows or other real things. |

Got a kick out of the scene where the Dr and his family Arrived in the frozen Sumner home.
In a similar situation, My buddies and I went out to a camp after midnight fueled on cheap bootlegger wine. There were two double beds to hold six of us and the frost was about an inch thick on the bedspread. I worked until 5 to unthaw the small oil stove. Didn't sleep much that night due to a lot of gunplay inside the cabin initiated by me. No campers were hurt in the mayhem...the cabin wasn't so airtight after that. |

The familiar version of Lara, used by family members and close friends, would be...Larissa. I have a cousin Lara, but she uses the variant Laryssa, which is also acceptable among Russians. Her grandmother's first name was Tonya, also Russian. -- Religion: together we can find the cure. |
