Good is a stretch, really good it is not. Its about on par with P.2 if you can get past him riding a fighter jet on the outside. Or that stupid Mac kid that I've always hated especially in Waiting.

Basically they took the greatest action hero ever who fought terrorists with his bare hands and made him a babysitter. Pretty lame.

I liked it quite a bit better than 2. I'd put it on par with 3. The villain was good. I actually liked the Mac kid. The jet was ridiculous, though.

My first reaction to this news was: WHY?! :gah:

I love to see it just be Inception, without any sequels or prequels or whatnot.

But, if they have to make another film which takes place in this same universe, then I hope they go more of a spin-off route, or maybe even a whole new character or something.

Just another story in the same universe.

I don't want to know what happens to Cobb after the first film. It would totally ruin the perfect ending that Nolan made.

Characters from the first film, like Arthur or Eames could make a cameo, maybe even have a supporting role, but whatever they do with this, it should have absolutely nothing to do with Cobb's story from part one. That should be left alone and how it is now.

If they can create a good new story, about another extraction or inception, without ruining the first film's awesome story, characters and ending, I might not have such a big problem with it.

But for now, I keep hoping that they'll just drop this idea of a sequel.
 
It's not a terrible idea. The world he created is so vast, there is a ton of ideas that could work. As long as it's a new story, not involving Leo's character....then what's the problem?

Maybe follow Arthur, or Tom Hardy's character...?




I agree that the idea is perhaps worth more exploration. But definitely no more of the Cobb story. In fact, I would be happier if it was all different characters but in the same universe that has shared dreaming technology.

But I would be the happiest if they just didn't do a sequel at all.

Agree with all of that mate. :exactly:
 
Eh, whatever. I wasnt that big of a fan of the first one to be honest. Nolan's biggest flaw has always been in the settings. The settings in his films are always very simple and realistic, and dont really stand out as cinematic or a character in themselves. In a movie like Inception where the entire plot of the movie was about dreams, it really needed for the settings in these dreams to be almost a character in itself. Instead the dreams felt nothing of the sort, with them being reduced to a quite realistic and noncinematic looking city, hotel, and what appeared to be a level from Goldeneye.

I kinda just thought it was to appeal to everyone's ideas of dreams. Not everyone has the same imagery in dreams. Thats too open ended an amount of possibilities. I have dreamt in black and white before, but if you hadn't you might think that it's not a good display of the dream world. Also there is way too much emphasis on whats real and whats a dream in the film to get away with that sort of story telling. The viewer is supposed to be taken with the dreaming characters into what they think is real.

I think a sequel or a prequel would just muck it up. There really isn't much more to explore without it tarnishing the first one. But apparently he's making it into a video game or something.

BTW, I do like how he uses places I've never been and buildings I've never been too and films them in a way that is both realistic and larger than life. It made my world seem very dirty and ugly though.
 
actually the "inception" universe nolan created is rich enough for other stories to be told. i don't see any reason why it can't be good if all the main talents are back. except for dicaprio. it'll probably be best to leave his character cobb out, to preserve the intrigue of the first film's ending (not that there's any doubt in most people's minds that he returned to reality). i'd love to see a whole story about the rest of the team, with the central protagonists being eames and arthur.

but the studio will insist on bringing dicaprio back for sure. sigh.
 
This will be the equivilent to "2010 : The Year We Make Contact" vs "2001 : A Space Odyssey.

Take away the director and you get a long winded, boring drug/money addict chasing that first high.
