Inception

There will be spoliers...

Thoughts on the movie and the ending....

[CanadianCat]

I personally LOVED it. Thought it was one of the best Ive seen in a long long time. Definetly a 'thinker' type of movie.

Im not sure what to think of the end however..

I think there's a thread on this in the lounge that has died out. I thought it was pretty awful, myself. Visuals were cool, but everything else was garbage.

Whole movie was a dream, the end.

Probably the best movie I've seen this year but thats not saying a whole lot. Had no problems with the ending.

someone needs to find that pic of leo and xzibit about putting a dream inside another dream

Inception is easily the best movie in a long time.

I saw it twice. I agree that the whole movie is a dream. I also think Mol planted the idea of the totem in Cobb so that he would never really know if he was dreaming or not.

The top wasn't relevant it isn't even his totem.

He is awake at the end, again not relevant though to what the movie was trying to do at the end.

Also the entire thing is an allegory for the creative/artistic process (specifically film/media production).

Good movie, but it looks a lot better just because of the stream of crap being spewed out into theatres right now. Did this just get released in Canada or something?

Yeah, i read that article. Of course, that is just a theory and Chris Nolan has not confirmed that. I doubt he ever will.

He is awake and here is why:

Leo explains to Ellen Page when he first gets her into a dream that you never really know how you got to where you were while inside a dream...you just are placed right into it.

Leo clearly wakes up on the plane, clearly gets to the airport and clearly makes it home to his children...he didn't just appear at his house where his children were playing...there was an order of events that got him there, starting with him waking up. The whole movie was not a dream.

haha no movies are usually released the same day as you guys - i just like to wait for the hype to die down around movies before I go.

I agree - i think he is awake

It's an interesting theory but they were "waking up" inside of dreams the whole movie.

How did he get on the train in the beginning of the movie?
