Spartan doesn't know anything 🤣 Science fiction, popularly shortened as sci-fi, is a genre of fiction that creatively depicts real or imaginary science and technology as part of its plot, setting, or theme.

[@DTrain5742]

It’s absolutely science fiction. Science fiction is any fictional story that has to do with technological advancement and humanity’s relationship to it. The whole concept of the dream sharing technology is something that we obviously don’t have in real life. There’s a minor line from Arthur where he mentions that the military developed it to train soldiers. This is one of my favorite films ever and I think I’ve seen it over 10 times at this point. I was a sophomore in high school when it came out and as someone who mainly watched superhero movies and stuff like Transformers, it changed my perspective on the types of stories that films are capable of telling.

Not to disparage Dark at all, but I'm seriously at a loss as to how people can recommend it. I thought the first season was great, I'd probably give it a 9/10, but that's only upon my initial watch. After seeing how the story concludes, I feel like the entire series suffered from LOST syndrome where the writer's didn't have an actual goal or end-game in mind and just wrote themselves into a corner.

[@Jang9851]

Lmao snake move. Everyone’s reaction was the same. But it was brilliant. Nolan basically performs Inception on the audience with that stunt at the end, planting an idea that “is this still a dream”

[@lircox]

The most beautiful part of the last scene to me is that Cobb doesn't even wait to see if the spinner topples.

[@Azameanie]

There are so many levels to this, much like the dreams. 1) Cobb’s totem is his wedding ring, he’s only wearing it in his dreams - the end is real. 2) He walks away from Mol’s totem at the end because he’s happy here and doesn’t care if it’s real. 3) Ariadne incepted the idea in Cobb that he could forgive himself for Mol’s death, he didn’t intend for her to die, and he could move on. Wild shit!

[@blitzgirl6522]

So happy you guys got to experience this masterpiece and enjoyed it! I was on the edge of my seat (literally) when watching this in theaters for the first time. One of my favorite things about this movie is how every member of Cobb's team has a role to play, so you root for every one of them. And then, at the end, the movie is a personal story (Cobb's journey to forgiveness, and Fischer's own journey).

[@richtea615]

Inception is a metaphor for film-making. The more you break immersion with bad writing, the more the audience knows they are watching fiction and become hostile towards it.

[@woeshaling6421]

There are intentional oddities inserted in both reality and memories to question the entire movie; the closing walls in the chase scene and Mal jumping off from the opposite hotelroom

[@Trepanation21]

The walls didn't close, they just weren't built with respect to each other. You find architecture like that _all the time_ in less-regulated regions, or with old architecture that predates and was excempted from the regulations. So perhaps that _was_ meant to evoke that sense on a rewatch/reflection, but there's nothing particularly unusual about it either.

[@Paehrin]

I really get what Spartan is talking about when it comes to dreams that feel real. It only happened to me once, I dreamed of my crush in high school and how we were together and all. I felt so sad when I woke up. It was the most realistic dream I ever had. I remember writing everything down as soon as I realized I was awake as to make sure not to forget it. Never felt that way again, but I did do the exact same thing, lying on the bed and try to reconnect with the dream. Never happened, but it was a really nice feeling while it lasted.

[@Lyf4rMusic]

IKR ?! I recently had such a dream and for that whole week, whenever I remember that experience I would automatically smile, but when I realize again that it would never happen, I get emotional ;( ... Now I just have the bits and pieces of 'memories' of that beautiful dream !

[@sebastienriviere7371]

Do you realize that Fischer is not the only one to have inception done on him in the movie? Cobb is also the subject on an inception. The idea implanted in him is he must forgive himself and let go of Mal. It's actually Michael Caine's character who has the idea. That's why he accepted to introduce Ariadne to Cobb. In parallel, he told Ariadne what she had to do. That's why she wanted so much to discover what Cobb was hiding, why she insisted to go with them in the dreams. It was also her idea to go to the limbos because she knew they had to go that deep for the inception to work. And in the end, she created the conditions for the inception but it was Cobb himself who implanted the idea to let Mal go in his own subconscious. It is also possible Arthur was aware of what she was doing but I'm not sure of that...

[@denisel1553]

HOLY SHIT I NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT

[@nicksimpson2155]

I can’t ever remember my dreams after I wake up except a single one from when I was young that I can remember everything and every feeling like it was real. It really trips me out sometimes

[@itotallycare]

I had this one dream where I realised that I was dreaming but didn't immediately wake up and then I literally remember myself thinking inside the dream "oh I'm dreaming, I can do whatever I want". Don't remember much after that. It's interesting because usually we don't realise we are dreaming or when we start to arrive to that point it's when we are about the wake up and never actually get to the point of realising.

[@Cau_No]

I also remember having such dreams on occasions. When it happened I started to explore the area I was in, and I even was able to levitate myself (i.e. fly) to other places in the dreamworld. It's called "lucid dreaming", and allegedly can even be trained for having more control over it. Usually the dream protects the sleep, but when you get aware of it, most people immediately wake up. But when you manage to stay asleep after noticing it, you can become the Neo in your own Matrix.

[@Daniel-qq4be]

@@Cau_Noyou are right, I have been practicing lucid dreaming for 4 years now, truly amazing you should try it.

I have had this a few times too! But it has been a long time since last time. The first time it happened, I didn't know how to change the dream. I ended up jumping out a window, immediately waking up... After that, I realized that change in my dreams is often correlated with motion, so if I keep walking the dream will change. Next time I had a lucid dream, I imagined a situation I wanted to experience, and started walking. Quite soon the dream indeed changed to what I wanted, it was really cool!

the crazy part about the end when he goes to save old man saito is they really had a bond in that layer of dream. yet in the real world they are pretty much just work acquaintances. its just like when one has their own emotional dream and it feels like u get that super intimate emotion to that projection in your mind then wake up and its nothing.

[@alexass8987]

Cobb's real totem is the wedding ring. In a dream, he always wears it on his finger, but in reality he carries it in his pocket. The ring allows him to determine if he is in someone else's dream. Nothing is known about its properties. A standard totem will allow you to determine whether a person is in someone else's dream (that's why no one tells each other about secret properties). A standard totem is not able to indicate whether a person is in his own dream. This is what Cobb fears most - getting lost in his dream, no longer distinguishing between reality. When people around them see a top, intuitively in their dreams they will make it fall, recreating the obvious properties of the object. However, in Cobb’s dream the top will not fall, because it is he who will create reality and will be able to “keep” it in motion. Once again, if this sounds confusing... 😅The ring for Cobb works like a standard totem and shows if he is in someone else's dream. And the top shows whether Cobb is in his personal dream.

[@MrTestertester]

I know what the director said about the ending but the fact that the only time you are able to see the kids faces is at the end I feel he is awake. Great movie none the less.

[@jordanwright1061]

Another great one guys! Couple of things, I know you guys have a laugh and banter but I appreciated a lot of the chat at the end like when discussing who'd be the Mal and Spartan refrained from getting too personal. And I empathise with Pudgey, I got hit by a car a few years back and its the sounds that really get me. The "do you need to pause?" Was so cool to hear the respect and care there. Anyway, thanks guys and I think you'd really like The Prestige- another trippy Nolan movie starring Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman as rival stage magicians.

What I find impressive is that by cutting that scene at the end of the movie, Christopher Nolan planted us the idea that this is probably a dream.

[@Enrique-Garcia]

My take: Cobb was the target all along, not Fischer. Ariadne was the extractor, which is why she took so easily to manipulating and creating dream reality, and why it was her idea to go another level to complete the mission (also why she was so damn nosy in Cobb's mind, she was actually doing intelligence gathering). Cobb had to be set up to go on this mission so that Ariadne would implant the idea that Mal's death wasn't his fault.

[@msosa2929]

[@isaiahpavia-cruz678]

If you remember the spinning top totem is Mal’s not Cobb’s. His real totem I believe is his wedding ring. He wears it in the dream sequences but not in reality. However in the final sequences from waking up in the plane through the ending, they deliberately don’t show his ring hand. 😂

[@davesunhammer4218]

Remember: the other characters in dreams will become defensive then violent to protect the dreamer. People forget or overlook that Mal is just an NPC in Cobb's dream which is why she is "violent". Cobb KNOWS the dream isn't real just going in cold so Mal is instantly on defense. ------------------ I always assumed even though we don't see the top fall, Cobb see's his children's faces and never has in any dream... so, either the dream is different this time for no apparent reason or he is in reality.

[@malacaimarbas2048]

An interesting theory is that the Inception was never truly about Fischer, it was about Cobb. Think about how Adriane was his guide through the catharsis of confronting and forgiving himself for his wife. Saito uses the phrase ‘leap of faith’ long before Cobb revealed it in his memory, as if he was placing that phrase in Saito’s mouth. Mal’s questions could be interpreted as proving that he is fully aware of his true reality, letting go of Mal. Also think of how wrong the mission went in the first level. Arthur is an extremely intelligent point man, he would have researched if Fischer had been trained, but Cobb himself was highly trained himself. Anyways, it’s a cool theory. Great reaction!

this movie made me want to learn about lucid dreaming. It took few weeks of training, but it was really exciting. The downside was, it fucked up my sleep cycle so eventually i stopped.

The coolest dream I ever had was one where I became conscious that I was dreaming, and from that point on could control what happened in the dream. It's only happened to me once, but was so epic!! Of course the first thing I tried was flying, Peter Pan style, lol. It was kind of like when the girl realized she was dreaming and started bending reality around her. I can still remember it clearly to this day, probably because it was so fun! P.S. Sci-Fi isn't confined only to space, lol. It's anything that takes science to an unconfirmed place. It can be about space, but just about anything else that is pseudo-science. Basically, pretending that something is scientific fact when in reality it's unconfirmed, or outright false. Fantasy usually has nothing to do with science at all, think magic. Although the lines are often blurred in storytelling. Not sure what category this movie falls under, though - it's pretty unique. An odd combination of things, but definitely a fun one!

Amazing movie! Glad you guys liked it. So trippy! Nolan is brilliant.

To help you with the difference between science fiction and fantasy: Science fiction takes what we know about reality and science and builds on and/or extrapolates from that (like, in this case, people have invented devices and drugs that allow them to enter others' dreams); fantasy, on the other hand, proposes things that likely couldn't exist in our reality (such as magic). Sometimes the only difference between the genres is whether or not some sort of underlying science is presumed to be supporting the weirdness, which is why sometimes a fantasy story or franchise can end up transforming into science fiction.

Have you guys watched Peaky Blinders? It's honestly a phenomenal series, and highly recommended. Although, quite brutal at times, but not much more than game of thrones could be.

Dark is an absolute MUST watch. I cant hype it up enough. Only 3 seasons and it makes for GREAT reactions. Guys, like this and the other Dark comment to show them we mean it

Take no drinks from strangers is a good advice.

Lol, of course its science fiction. Since inception and getting in people's minds with all these details, is something that can only happen in science fiction not in real life. Creativity was through the roof in this science fiction film though!! Nolan truly captured me for the first time in the theaters with this movie. Once in a lifetime experience. Loved it. Pudgey movie for sure. Some of us simply love these kind of puzzly mindbender scenarios!! So mindblowing!!

“Mr. Nobody” is a great movie similar to a mind-warp like this movie
