Administrator Toups Posted July 2, 2010 Administrator Share Posted July 2, 2010 I can't wait to see this. I heard it's really confusing which is to be expected due to the subject matter of dreams and mind control. I also can't wait to download the soundtrack (Zimmer!). LOL Also, the music in the trailer is spectacular - I think it's going to be used in future trailers (like the way Requiem for a Dream is used).

Members Sylph Posted July 2, 2010 Author Members Share Posted July 2, 2010 I've actually heard the opposite: it's so well explained, but without expository stuff. All through action of the characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted July 9, 2010 Administrator Share Posted July 9, 2010 I hope it does well at the B.O. because I'm a Nolan fan, but I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 11, 2010 Members Share Posted July 11, 2010 I'm not sure about the film, but I do appreciate how secretive the studio is being... for once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 21, 2010 Members Share Posted July 21, 2010 So anyone else seen it? Anyone wanna discuss the ending? Overall, I really enjoyed it--I think it might be my fave Nolan since Momento (or at least The Prestige). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted July 21, 2010 Author Members Share Posted July 21, 2010 Not yet. But if the ending reveals some sort of a framing device... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted July 21, 2010 Members Share Posted July 21, 2010 This was pretty much the closest thing i have ever seen to a perfect movie, ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 21, 2010 Members Share Posted July 21, 2010 Hrmm not really--without being more specific, but in a way it does. Sorta. (How's that for an answer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted July 21, 2010 Author Members Share Posted July 21, 2010 The critics loved it then started hating it? http://www.philly.com/inquirer/magazine/20100720__Inception_was_loved_before_it_was_hated.html That's horrible. I can almost see it. Something like it was all a dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted July 21, 2010 Author Members Share Posted July 21, 2010 I have no idea whether it's true, but this is just hysterical! http://www.observer....in-inception-me Any truth to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 21, 2010 Members Share Posted July 21, 2010 It still has a metacritic score of 75 which is pretty good, but I could see it being a movie that some critics (and audiences?) start causing a backlash over. WOW at that article. I have to say I enjoyed reading it but, man he really hates Nolan and his films--doesn't mince his words (in fact it reads a bit like a post you might write about something you dislike, ). Although I did hate Synecdoche, New York--but find it kinda amusing how he drops it in just because of that (I don't see much similarity in it to Nolan's work). Hrmm, To try to be fair, there's prob some truth to the comments--to me I enjoyed it more for the experience and liked that it reflected drams with things left unexplained, etc but I certainly can see why some might not. *edit* I just realized that article was written by Rex Reed. Puts things in a different perspective--of course he was brilliant in Myra Breckinridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 22, 2010 Members Share Posted July 22, 2010 Everybody's a Critic of the Critics' Rabid Critics A.O. Scott in the New York Times on the criticism and the criticism of the criticism (metacriticism?) of Inception. Contains at least one crucial spoiler, so be wary.

Members Sylph Posted July 22, 2010 Author Members Share Posted July 22, 2010 So... You would've agreed with the Observer review if you hadn't found out it was by Reed? But now that you did, you're kind of ashamed you agree a tiny bit with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 22, 2010 Members Share Posted July 22, 2010 No, I still do agree with some of his points (and in general I agree with those critics who wished it had been more emotionally engaging--I think it won't play as well a second time for me cuz I already know the twists, and that's what kept me interested, not the characters). I just found it odd that a major review would use such strong words--usually critics seem to want to sound rational, even if they'd like to use words like hate. But this guy basically tears into the fact he thinks Nolan, and then throws Kaufman in there too, are utter hacks. It's just not the kinda languageI'm used to reading in major reviews--but when I realized it was Rex Reed (who seems to wish George Cukor was still making movies, and is a decent interviewer I think but not agreat critic--even if his was probably the only review of th einfamous flop movie version of Sondheim's A Little Night Music! lol)... It suddenly all made sense--cuz that'show he writes. When you see a positive Reed quote on a movie poster it's a bit like when you see a Larry King one--it ususally means they couldn't find any others... anywhere Some of his early comic writing is quite funny though.
