I was. My immediate reaction to it the first time I saw the film on opening weekend was to laugh.

 

Exactly. The lingering on the top and cutting to black right after it wobbled was Nolan playing a joke on audience expectations.

[ecstasy]

I was. I have proof.

[Michael Gary Scott]

Well of course. But AT THE TIME everybody and their mother was trying to figure that ending out. You know it's true. I was on mojo back then. Nobody was calling it a "cheeky little wink" at the end of a fun adventure.

I did cobb got his kids back happy ending

People were masturbating in analysis like it was some big business that would spin the whole movie into something else. "OMG!!!!NOLAN DID AN INCEPTION ON US!!!IT IS A DREAM! SO CLEVER!"

Everybody saying they did because they know it's no way to check. Um hum. Yep, lol.

[druv10]

Oh give me a break. IM3 was complete shit,

 

No, I actually liked the twist. 

[4815162342]

LOL okay numbers. 

 

Doubt all you want but it's the truth. The BOM purge wiped out any record of it.

Don't roll your eyes woman!Nolan is amazing at what he does. He is one of the best directors in the last 10 years(if not the best).

[redfirebird2008]

Hopefully even the people who don't care that much for Inception can agree that it would be a bad idea to make a sequel. Night at the Museum 2 is a perfect example of cash grab sequels that should have never been made. Inception's grandfather, The Matrix, is another really good example of how to ruin an interesting movie by cashing in with sequels.

Someone make a Dark Knight Rises VS Iron Man 3 thread in the speakeasy already.

It was a shit comedy movie that got old quick.

He's great but I don't worship him like you and others.

And you doubt because you have trouble comprehending that people didn't freak out at the ending?

[dashrendar44]

Matrix Reloaded on paper is great. The execution is a mess.

[ecstasy]

It was a shit comedy movie that got old quick.

 

IM3 was a great movie.

It felt like Matrix was setting up sequels from the beginning. They just weren't well executed

I disagree. They should have just left it alone. It was great as a one-off.

[Michael Gary Scott]

Oh great another im3/nolan debate

I don't have trouble comprehending anything. What I have trouble with is remembering any of you saying then what you are saying now. Sorry but I don't. If you say so fine and I'll leave it at that.
