Not sure if this was posted already, but the African American Film Critics Association named Nolan best director and included Inception on the list of their top ten films of the year.

Re: Nolan: I view INCEPTION as Film NOIR.
Film noir (retroactively termed) was a cinematic movement from roughly 1941-1958. It is not a genre and never will be. Neo noir is its offspring, though in my opinion neo noir can't ever be a genre, either. All of Nolan's films are heavily influenced by noir. Inception is definitely a neo-noir, as i...

Can someone please post the clips of the opening bit and the part where Inception wins its awards? I don't have SPIKE TV in my cable package. Thanks.

Re: Inception 2011 OSCARS POTENTIAL (will be updated constan
I'm afraid that Inception might not even get a Best Picture nomination because of its rather apolitical subject matter and relatively absurd sci-fi premise. The main reason why Avatar and D-9 were nominated last year was because they both touched upon controversial and timely political and cultural...

Re: Inception 2011 OSCARS POTENTIAL (will be updated constan
Inception will most likely not get BP because: 1. Sci-fi is not the academy's cup of tea 2. It was released in the summer 3. There will not be any acting noms I don't really care about BP though, I'm just hoping that Nolan will get a BD nom. He probably won't win, but it would be outrageous if he d...

Re: Who has more screen time?
I don't know for sure, but I think that Scarlett Jo has more screen time, though I much prefer the acting of Rebecca Hall. She played her part brilliantly.

Re: Book versus Film
I just finished the novel in preparation for my Nolan thesis, so I will try to make my comment on this thread brief. Of course, my opinion is completely subjective (and includes spoilers). The film is very different from the novel. Both have their pros/cons, but in the end I prefer the film. Here's ...

Re: Inception 2011 OSCARS POTENTIAL (will be updated constan
Inception is not even a real contender for Best Picture, neither is The Social Network. They don't appeal to the demographic of the Academy (average 57 years old). True Grit , The King's Speech , Somewhere , The Way Back , 127 Hours , and possibly Hereafter are the only real contenders for Best Pic...

Re: Inception 2011 OSCARS POTENTIAL (will be updated constan
127 hours hasn't got that good reviews. The Social Network REALLY doesn't look that good. It won't get any acting noms, that's for sure. And BB getting 13 noms was absolutely ridiculous. 127 Hours so far has received rave reviews, so not sure where you're checking; and whether or not The Social Net...
