For a moment there, I thought you were talking about watching Lost after smoking weed.

Haha I seemed to have forgotten to write 'Highway' :o

Inception is definitely not a David Lynch movie. David Lynch is great, but sometimes seems to be incomprehensible for the sake of it.

I think this movie has an "answer" even if it isn't clear in the first viewing.

*Double Post*

I think it's a fine continuation of the Director's exploration of memory: How do we know what we know? And is what we perceive reality?

I thought it was well directed and nicely edited. Good script, well cast, fine acting, good special effects. I was glad to see so many actors I already like in one film: Cillian Murphy, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard and Ken Watanabe were each a draw to me. I'm on and off in liking DiCaprio but I did like him in this.

I don't think it's really correct to compare Lynch's work to Nolan. I could see comparing Nolan to David Fincher and people have made comparisons to Kubrick which I think is more related than Lynch. There is even an intentional Kubrick reference in Inception.

I also liked seeing Marion Cotillard and hearing the music of Edith Piaf in a film other than "Piaf". It's like seeing something in a dream then being confused when you see the things in another waking context. Maybe that's me reading too much into it.

I agree with you, edelweiss. I don't think comparing Lynch to Nolan is really accurate. Lynch has 20+years of a resume, but I don't think he is as vital as he was around the time of Blue Velvet, which will likely become his swan song. I think Inception will be Christopher Nolan's swan song, and although it is early to say, I think it will be regarded as a better movie than Blue Velvet.

Haven't seen it yet... Would love to though ^_^

I was always wondering why this movie got so much hype, lol. Alot of people tell me to go watch it.. from the sounds of it, it seems pretty good. :)

I liked it....
 

... it's like Where Dreams May Come meets The Matrix.... You really have to pay attention to it....

I did, and noticed they were riding on the Series 500 Shinkansen. I thought it was done for: the airplane-looking one. At least I heard it was done for on the Nozomi run.

The Series 500 is now out of service, as I understand. It was too fast and there were small cracks opening in the tunnels between Osaka and Tokyo.
