oh god
8 1/2 is one of the greatest films of all time which is deeply involved with the fragmented modern condition which is fully conscious of all that it doesn't know
inception is a pretentious movie that tries to intimidate the viewer with complexity and tries to act as if it understands how humans work
edit* also, in 8 1/2, the characters are intentionally flat, to show the main character's megalomania
in inception, the characters are just one dimensional, and he tries to make it a lynchpin in the end
that squint drives me batty
just look at owen wilson for a superb example of what i mean

no
i had on at least four separate rape deterrents, not to mention my internal... defenses
but he's prettier
Sometimes I abstain from posting a good and intelligent reply in a thread because I don't want to blue-dot it.
I don't think it tries to intimidate
I saw a documentary about it
Inception was nice to look at, a lot of fun, and I greatly enjoyed the plot. I do not care what anyone else says.
so pretty!
ahahahaha
I really did like the scene where Kim Basinger masturbates to a slideshow in the art gallery.
They're still looking at us.
It was worth a try.
it also had a number of clever riffs on the standard hollywood action movie
Podly understands that being a being of Being is being Being like Being being being being Being.
I would chill with him so hard.
No, you wouldn't win.
This is a slashfiction thread now.
I have no need for slash any more.
Worst comes to worst, I can always make Mori dance while snapping a whip at his heels.
I dunno, because it has such a faulty conception of mind and brain-states, it was hard for me to come to terms with the movie. And when I was looking for why there was tension, I was just met with aggression from the director: all these freudian secrets are being held, but blocked somehow by behavioral swat teams, which were all swarming around at different levels (?) of dreams (?), and then I tried to latch on to the characters, but they were all woefully undeveloped, with no identified cathartic goal in sight, so we just had all this visceral sturm und drang storming around, pulling me along -- don't get me wrong, the movie is a pretty good as a heist film and is definitely tense -- but I didn't understand why I was being pulled along, I felt that I myself was abducted, and there was no payoff in the end. Especially with that downright insulting last shot.
Guh!
Possibly followed by the finger bite.
