George Clooney’s new film, Gravity. Reporter asks a Question

So, there’s this film out at the moment called Gravity. It’s set in outer space. It has Sandra Bullock and George Clooney in it.

And it’s pretty popular despite a couple of glaring scientific inaccuracies. (We’re pretty sure that booty shorts aren’t issued as part of the NASA uniform.)

But perhaps the film was a little too real for Mexican TV entertainment reporter, Carlos “El Capi” Pérez.

At a press conference for the film, the reporter asked the film’s director, Alfonso Cuarón, “”What were the technical and human difficulties of filming in space? Was it very difficult, very complicated to film in space? Did the camera operators get sick?”

Oh dear.
Cuarón decided to play along, saying: ”We were in space for three-and-a-half months. I got really sick during training.” And then everyone laughed at the trolling journo and the director’s humorous answer and the celebrity news story ended there, right?

Wrong.
Because – after receiving an understandable amount of ‘what the’ reactions – El Capi has since tweeted: ”Excuse me Twitter for being a professional committed to information. Don’t tell me I was the only one who had that doubt.”
