Re: Why 'Inception' Not 'The Social Network' May be the Film
It's things like this that make me worry for Inception at the Oscars. Guess which generation is still in charge of those?

Re: Was Eames performing Inception on Cobb?
The chips he brought up to the counter were fake. He's a forger in more ways than one, after all. And just because that sequence comes off as dreamlike doesn't mean he was the one behind it. But then, I subscribe to the theory that everybody was in on it (and were projections themselves to boot), so...

Re: The Last Line of the Train Riddle
The answer of "you'll" pulls it into third-person though, which takes precedence over what came before. ...or something... ha More than one person can be in an audience. What matters is that second-person seems to be addressing that audience directly. And she is asking Ariadne directly when she say...

Re: The Last Line of the Train Riddle
Just for the record, using "you" as a rhetorical device indicates a second person point of view. First person is "I", second person is "you," third person is "he/she". At least that's the way I learned it.

Re: Tracking the Wedding Ring-> joining Team Reality
How does it all being a dream cheapen the film? Everyone thinks it does, but the fact is the film is a metaphor for moviemaking, just because Cobb found peace in a dream instead of reality doesn't mean he hasn't found peace, just because you find peace in a film, doesn't mean that you haven't found...

Re: Entering into limbo
actually movie shows cobb drowning and going straight into limbo.but i think there is some time in between I interpreted that as Cobb staying in Limbo, but just getting pushed deeper by the fact that he was drowning on a higher level; kind of like a reverse kick. Notice that he woke up dazed on a s...

Re: Tracking the Wedding Ring-> joining Team Reality
If the movie shows a scene which does NOT involve the narrator (and that happens throughout the movie) then those characters can't be projections. Arthur, Fischer, Eames, Saito, Browning, Ariadne all have scenes with interactions without Cobb able to see them. Or you could assume that the incident ...
