Re: 'The Prestige' is More Original Then 'Inception'

Thinking some more about my favourite scene in "Inception"; Fischer talking to his Dad in the dream scene, the 'inception' moment, which I mentioned on page 7, ( other than some superb mindblowing "sets" simply for the spectacle that is ), and: I had already suggested ( above/on page 7 ) that one of...

Re: 'The Prestige' is More Original Then 'Inception'

... its very tough getting through the beginning...and the snow fortress action is shot in such a boring way. I agree. I left the film on in the background with sound down, and with your comment in mind I kept an eye open for the snow fortress scenes and it really is astonishing how dull, uninspire...

Re: 'The Prestige' is More Original Then 'Inception'

I finally got to see "Inception", ( a few weeks ago ), after months waiting for the DVD here in France, and have to say that although on first viewing it is effectively suspenseful, visually exciting/exhilarating, fairly engaging emotionally etc, and does involve some pretty original ideas, concepts...

Thank you for the link.

Re: Inception and a generaltional divide?

Brilliant article, thanks for posting it. :) Very interesting the parallels he draws with video/computer games, and how people ( younger people, but me too, at 46 :lol ), want films that they have to work out, films which include the viewer ( you become Poirot, Holmes, etc ) by demanding that you so...

Re: Should I wait for VO or risk the french dub?

Anybody in non-english-speaking europe or other parts of the world here who has seen a dubbed version and thinks, ( based on what they've seen of the english version online, trailers, etc ) that it it may be a good idea to wait until can see a VO? or that it doesn't make much difference?

Re: movies like prestige?

"Gosford Park" is pretty complex, gripping, beautiful to look at, and improves signifcantly on second and third viewing in exactly the same way as "The Prestige", when understand the implications of things better etc. "Brazil" is gripping, weird, complex, and about a "dream" that someone has, vs a w...
