While you have a point about dreams regarding lottery numbers but what's the scale of it? I mean, will anyone buy super big on a certain lottery number just because the number was revealed in a dream. In the movie, its about destroying an entire empire that could be a monopolizing company in the world. Surely, it will need more than just a simple revelation in the dream or as Cobb puts in, "This seed that we are planting in this man's mind will grow into an idea."

I was thinking of the same thing too. The camera actually focused on the totem on the floor, implying something, I would say.

Fischer was just too gullible, that's for sure

He submitted his trust 100% to "Mr Charles", and even came up with the conclusion/idea of his Uncle Peter & of his father.

All Mr Charles did was just to keep on motivate him towards his own idea

Hey guys something i dont understand from the movie

The almost end part where Cobb was talking to old Saito. What were they talking about? What's happening?

And in the end the 'gasing' didnt topple. means that is not real?
Or isit just about to topple? 

half remembered dream? I thought those words they said when cobb talking to old saito was the words spoken the real world?

inception as a whole is just mediocre. People seem to think it's a great movie because the ending was so beatifully pulled off that it left audiences with a final good impression. Really, the ending is the only good thing the movie has. That, and maybe the Hanz Zimmer soundtrack.

honestly, the movie was incredibly boring, i was barely awake by the time the movie reached that scene in the raining city, and i dozed off a few times during the snow scenes.

and worst of all, the movie takes great pains as to make the mechanics of the dreams so overly complicated, and some of them don't even make sense. It doesn't help that the movie keeps overloading the audience with a bunch of new rules for the dreamworld every 5 minutes, making, making it hard for the audience to really process them all, let alone understand them. It's hard to make of what's happening most of the time, and i'm pretty sure 99% of the people who watched this movie couldn't either.

i give this movie 3/5.

Hmm, I kinda agree with u. I dont think its that good as many people say it is. I really got abit disappointed.
And the part about the time in dream moves faster is wrong, it is the same for dream and reality, technically.
And seriously can a dreamer manipulate the totem behavior and tricking the subject into thinking he was in real world...zzz

about the bolded part- I thought if they die in dream within dream in so many layers, they wouldnt wake up to live?
Anyway, why is Saito so old in limbo and Cobb still so young?

haha relax, im just saying

Wow, a hardcore detected

Somehow I feel that this movie is being "hoo-haed" just like Avatar
...but this is still a better movie

Anyway does anyone notice that at a part Eames face was exposed to Fisher and at earlier on in the 1st level of dream, Eames was sitting beside Fisher when he was kidnapped. Mistake?

And I thought Fisher's uncle was trying to kidnap Fisher but how come at last Fisher and his uncle was like ok d?

but just a few second after that Eames walked into the hotel room after fisher uncle walk in and they point gun at fisher uncle

So that was the real uncle peter as in projection uncle peter?

oh~~ but no i dont see how eames did it in level 1 hahaha

lol...noob Fisher

of course it's too much for me, and it's probably too much for you too. lol inception is such an ingeniously woven story that you have to watch it 5 more times to even understand half of the things the movie mentions, only to find more things that don't make sense. Inception is one of those movies that makes you feel smart just by watching it like Minority Report and the Matrix.

you don't even have to talk about the dream mechanics. In the movie, both Ken Watanabe and Cillian Murphy are two powerful and very important leaders of huge conglomerates. It would be nearly impossible for a bunch of guys to even get close to any one of them, let alone hook up a bunch of dream gizmos, without security detail noticing. This was especially ridiculous when the group was invading Cillian Murphy, since Ken Watanabe was also along with them. Lol he's like his greatest industrial rival and threat to his family's empire, yet he fails to recognize Ken Watanabe on the plane? Lol logic.

Another silly thing is Inception tries to pass the bunch of dream jumpers of as good guys. Lol these guys are actually invading the mind of an innocent guy who, as far as the audience can tell, hasn't done anything wrong and is an all around nice guy. And for what? To stop terrorism? To cure cancer? To stop evil? No, they went in just so Ken Watanabe's empire can rise up and rule after Cillian destroys his dad's company. Not to mention that what the group really did was just feeding lies to Cillian's mind, and he'll destroy his company based on a lie. The dream jumpers try to usurp Cillian using underhanded tactics with the intention of pure personal gain such as wealth and power, and they're the good guys? lol.

im looking forward to seeing more movie with such a theme to be made- reality and fantasy converging

Added on November 29, 2010, 1:19 amAnyone here thinks that it is weird that he have the top in real world when he said that he got it in limbo? lol. mistake or not significant or does it mean the whole thing is a dream? hmm

Anyway to get out of limbo they must be killed rite? if so why are the making so much fuse during the kidnap on which saito was shot about dropping into limbo?

Cobb and Mal were in limbo, and Cobb incepted the idea to Mal to kill themselves to get back to reality.

When Saito realized he is in limbo after talking to Cobb, he held the gun (I assume he kill Cobb and himself).

So getting out of limbo is kill yourself?

So, how did Cobb know he's in Limbo in the first place?

he's the 1st person to went into limbo rite. that means he must be very 'smart' to know that tht is limbo and thrs no one at limbo considering the face he has no prior knowledge of the place

I super like how beautifully they synchronize the kicks. you can see they wake up from layers of dreams again and again

potentially will be growing into some sort of cult film in the future.. how Inception did in worldwide cinema? any potential to win any Oscar?

Wow... thread still going strong with opinions of "could be this" and "could be that"...
