I don't breathe, can't take my eyes off the screen. This is, like, the upteenth trailer and it's almost as fresh as the first one. Remarkable.

New 'Gravity' Trailer -- Still Fun To Watch, Still Loaded With Meaning
I'm pretty sure I've seen all the 'Gravity' footage that's been made available, (and there's a couple seconds new stuff in this trailer), but I'm struck how it never gets old, always stays fresh. It's nice to see old stuff again, I discover something new with each viewing, and the new stuff never fails to impress.
How often can you say that?
I'm going to go back and watch or re-watch everything Alfonso Cuarón has done. This is a director willing to go there, deliver, no matter how audacious the plot (or setting for that matter). And, he does it smartly. The subtext in 'Gravity' is pretty clear. This is a movie that will stimulate the intellect, give rise to debate about the future of society (indeed, some may be, should be, compelled to wonder whether we have conducted ourselves properly during our stay on this planet Earth) and, at the same time, be great entertainment.
Rare qualities.
