Am I the only one who doesn't have a problem with Page?

Well, Ariadne is actually one of my favourite characters of the "Inception". I think Ellen was great :oldmanface:

I dunno, I liked page.

A.) WAY less handholding.

B.) First hour could have been better structured/more interestingly, hide the exposition through story. I've kind of started thinking it should've had it's own narrative arc guiding the action, instead of it just being expository.

C.) Better sense of geography in the locations and cinematography. Japanese Castle (ext&int), Tokyo, fortress and mountain area, etc.

D.) Editing is a bit eh sometimes.

That's about it.

Through Page in the list and it's identical to mine.

I like Page as an actress, she was great in Juno, but it was just unusual seeing her in such a mature role. Someone like Rachel Evan Wood or Carey Mulligan (both of who were considered for the role) would of been a perfect fit.

I would change a lot.

Have the idea that dream machines aren't readily available, therefore everyone would want their hands on one.

I personally would have seen a little more philosophy of dreams from other characters, for example, when i saw the first trailer for Inception I thought the hotel scene would have been someone trying to determine whether they are in a dream or not, for example JGL would have had a monologue where he would believe the dream was real and he was hiding something in his mind, but slight disturbances of the water would give it away and the dream would have been rejected, hence why gravity was changing and the fight to escape would occur.

I had a whole different plot in my mind which wouldn't be inception... so never mind, Nolan's one was better. :lol:

I would not change a thing.

I had no hype for the film, in fact, I was looking forward to "SALT" even more that month.

Page was fun, yet she could be taken seriously when needed.

Honestly, the only thing I would change is Saito's dialog. In a movie theater, with no subtitles, it's hard to figure out his speech cadence. Near the end of the movie, when he was dying, I finally figured it out.

I thought this was Batman Begins all over again,when he was speaking a made up language. :batface:

Needs more Ellen Page.

More Tom hardy is what this movie needed. i mean he was cool in the film but he should have been in it a lot more because then the general public would've remembered his performance even more. his performance was the one thing every critic was praising.

The Tagline didn't make sense. Your Mind is the Scene of the Crime. There was no crime in the movie at all.
