INCEPTION Discussion Thread (***Spoilers!!!***)

[Maglor]

I'm not reading this whole thread.

I've been told a theory that Cobb was the actual person whom inception was being performed on, in order for him to get over his wife's death. Set up by his father with his 'student' being assigned to guide Cobb.

If you're not concerned with internal evidence then there are all kinds of theories you could come up with.

I've only looked at the last 2 pages of this thread. lol

Cobb's wife was sexy.

If you are interested in my perspective, read pages 41 and 42. I gave a synopsis for The Ween there (not sure if she read it though):

Rude...


Would you just read two posts?

#410 and #411

The link I posted takes you to #410. In fact, you could just read #410 to see why I believe so firmly that the end is real.


Other reasons to believe the end is real have come up since. For example the kids are wearing different clothes at the end even though they look similar. And it's actually different/older kids.

I read a theory about a theory postulating another theory that hypothesized that Cobb took the red pill before the movie credits.

Jeez Mag, I was only joking. I still wont read the posts.

Cobb is the one. Surprised he didnt dodge bullets in the movie.

Yeah it was posted a while back. And it was confirmed that it was intentional. Very cool.

So I just checked out the movie again... effing brilliant ofcourse. I noticed a few things that I wanted to get everyone's perspective on.

1. Close to the beginning, when they are infiltrating Saito's mind, there is a closeup shot of Cobb looking at his watch. Why was the closeup of his watch upside down? Shortly after they show a closeup of the guy on the train who wakes up Arthur, and the closeup was right side up.

2. Why did Cobb sit Mal on the chair and expect her to stay there while he climbed down the wall? That just seemed weird.

3. When they were in the third level, they had convinced Fischer that they were entering Browning's mind. So what I found weird was when they were on the show level, at one point they were all together (including Fischer), and Cobb said to Eames, "we're in your dream now." Was that a mistake?

1) Continuity error?

2) That's just one of those things you have to go with. At that point we aren't meant to know that she is his subconscious. She is just a woman that he trusts (more of less). Yes he should have known better.

3) They were definitely in Eames' dream.

The persons who's mind you are entering is not necessarily the same person who is controlling and building the current dream world. Because they are all linked, they are all experiencing the same world, but each level has a different "Driver" so to speak. Eames was the dreamer in the snow level for sure.
