I could transcribe some quotes, but then you’d miss the thrill in Guillermo del Toro’s voice, however oblique his explanation may be. Among other things (I hope beyond our imagination to guess) The Film Stage guesses correctly that Del Toro is talking about Cuarón’s use of long takes:
It has been said the film has at least a 20-minute single opening scene, with possibly the entire film being made up of just a few shots. If one matches that with the fact that every element must convincingly be in zero gravity, these “mindblowing” technological advancements could be to capture both. Considering he is recreating space inside a studio, and Cuarón’s insistence on photo-real CGI, this continues to be most-anticipated film of 2012.
Still wish the actors were different, but this is one that I can barely hold in my excitement for, it’s been a very frustrating 5 years waiting for another film here.

Props to Bullock for [at least seemingly] playing her cards right post Oscar. She’s always been dependent on the director/cast for good performances [Crash, Infamous] so I’m very much looking to seeing what she does. And Cuaron is a genius, full stop. As someone who started following the Oscar game after Children of Men, I just can’t see how it didn’t get nods for Picture and Director.

I’m sorry but that argument about what makes for it “contining to be most-anticipated film of 2012” hold no GRAVITA.
“Considering he is recreating space inside a studio”
So what? The space is always recreated inside the studio. Even 2001: A Space Oddysey had pretty awesome zero gravity effects.
“and Cuarón’s insistence on photo-real CGI”
Don’t get me wrong, I’m excited by this project too way to show it down out throats.
Unheard of!

Should be awesome… y tu mama tambien and children of men are certainly on the short list of the best films of the 21st century.
bullock is terrible but i’m sure cuaron can get a good performance out of her.

This is the one film of 2012 that I’m anticipating on a massive level. Cuaron is one of my favorite directors working today, and his ‘Children of Men’ is, IMHO, a modern masterpiece. I’m even more excited thinking of the performances he can get out of Sandra Bullock and George Clooney. Bullock has been careful with her film choices after winning the Oscar, and working with Daldry/Hanks and Cuaron/Clooney are great decisions. I cannot wait to finally see some footage.
