I tried listening to some of the soundtrack again after watching and man... I think much of the epicness of this movie is expressed in the music, it just brings so much back after listening to the soundtrack, especially the last song


As for the totem, I found another video of someone who had a promo totem and filmed it spinning -for 1 minute 6 seconds (which is clearly long enough for the last scene of the film) so happy ending hopefuls rejoice!

I was wondering, why exactly did the movie devolve into a james bond snow fortress? Was the fortress some sort of defense projection from Fischer's mind or something? But i think it was designed by Whatsherface (Ellen Paige) Why exactly did she do that?

That was eams dream and they set it like that so Fischer can think it was the fathers right hand mans dream.
Life?

whoever made that video spun it really hard
the top doesn't always spin that long
tops don't just wobble on a flat surface then regain their perfect composure
that top in the movie was definitely going to fall, i mean if it was a dream then it wouldn't even wobble like that right?

loopholes? ambiguities, yes. but don't you think in 10 years, they made the story good enough to satisfy the loophole criteria? :d

If you guys noticed in the movie, Nolan purposely showed us the top spin and fall during the movie. Just before the cut, you see the same wobble the top makes as before. I believe that conclusively proves that Cobb is actually IRL.

False. Whoever shot that video was in another person's dream.

If "Reality" was actually a dream than the top wouldn't have stopped spinning the first time Leo spun it.

Somebody make an exhibit meme!!!!
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

Due to the team's repeated suggestions that there was a will in a safe by big daddy Fischer's bed, Fischer found exactly that in the 3rd level of dreams, even though there was not such thing.

From this, it is my conclusion that the dreamer's ideas and preconceptions affect the dream state directly.

Therefore, whether or not the top falls is inconsequential. It only proves that Cobb BELIEVES that he is in reality.

Either way, the concept of the totem is rather confusing to me. If the top was initially Mal's totem, why didn't she check if she was in a dream in 'reality'(Level 0)?

Maybe she did. And level 0 isn't reality at all. Mal was right all along, and Cobb is still stuck in a dream. Which would make sense if Cobb only adopted the top as his totem after Mal jumped, as he would never have felt the real top.

Seems as though Cobbs inception made her believe that everything was a dream. She lost her belief in the top's ability to show whether or not she was in a dream. Reminds me of the Little Albert experiment in which they tried to condition a child with a simple fear of a certain type of animal but resulted in the child eventually fearing fur in general.

actually she totally got into the dream and put the top away so that she wouldn't remember it and thus tell if it was a dream or not anymore so then after that leo decided to take the totem and remembered leading to the eventual inception so that he can't tell her its all fake
