The Escape from Limbo, Inception ending, Deja Vu

Which ends with the special property of the top helped Cobb "keep track of reality" in Limbo, and remember why he was at Saito. And from then on Cobb reminded Saito, and they gave each other the best Deja Vu ever and escaped Limbo after realizing it was not real.

Only big plot hole in this movie is arent you not supposed to touch other peoples totems because only you need to know what its like and how did he get old in the dream, but cobb's age changes in his dreams, flashbacks show him old, then when they die to wake up they were young then, and woke up.

[@tykjenffs]

Its not a plot hole. Cobb only realized the importance of having your own totem, AFTER he Incepted Mal. She had a totem for Limbo. It was her idea to forget reality. Cobb did not forget reality. He knew what was real. He found Mal's totem and changed it. But he had no idea of the ramification. So he kept the top as a keepsake of her. And a top does not spin forever in reality. So it was a totem others could use as well. But it did not help Mal, because she was Incepted with the idea that her world was not real. The totem could not help her. Nobody could help her. She could not get rid of the idea that was planted in her. The most resilient parasite.

Adam Ohm your point?

[@WiggaMachiavelli]

+Adam Ohm What he means is that he loves that he makes that phone call straight away. Saito was in limbo for what, to him, would have felt like half a century, at least. He's spent a lifetime in the dream-world, perhaps even forgetting (until Cobb appears) that it is not real, but as soon as he wakes, the very first thing he does is honour his word (and he even remembers the number). No shock, no nostalgia, no celebration - just fulfilling the promise. I say perhaps forgetting, but honestly, it'd be even more impressive if he was for the entire time aware that it was just a dream; imagine waiting patiently, all that time, with only a single purpose in mind.

The ending of Inception is meant to leave you thinking and questioning the nature of reality.

One thing I loved about this scene is how Cobb asks him to take a leap of faith, which is the exact same thing Mal asked of Cobb when she killed herself. Saito and Cobb had probably spent so long in limbo at this point that Saito didn't know if he was dreaming or not. Cobb had his totem, but Saito describes his memories of reality as a half-remembered dream. To him, the totem would topple in a dream, and remain spinning in reality. It's a wonderfully done parallel to Cobb and Mal.

He got out of the dream. During the whole movie, even though he said that the top was Mal's totem, we started thinking it was his because he always had it. He was just holding onto Mal. Remember. He planted the idea in mal's head that if the top was still spinning, her world wasn't real. So he used the totem and that idea that went with it, to hep him know what was real, and what wasn't. Since mal died in real life, the top has no relevance to her. So Cobb can use it whenever he wants. Now. The ring theory, even though I have watched this many times, I'm not sure about, but it does make perfect sense. Cobb went back in the end as he promised and found Saito. Saito was in Limbo, and he didn't remember anything from his mission he had with Cobb. But, when Cobb saw that it was him, and completed his sentences, saying "I'm just an old man, filled with regret, waiting to die alone" Which is what Saito told him repeatedly throughout the movie, He remembered, shot himself, and him and Cobb returned to the real world. Now the reason why they were all still on the plane, was because in the dream world, the time lasts longer. Cobb wasn't in his limbo, he was in Saito's. Saito had memories of earlier dreams, the prominent one being that room which we see in the beginning of the movie. Now the whole theory stating that they were dreaming the WHOLE TIME I mean like Cobb was just dreaming all of this, can't be true. I think Christopher Nolan inserted something in the movie that made that theory not even probable. Ariadne made a totem for herself. It was a unique chess piece. When she was done, she knocked it over to make sure it would work properly. If it wouldn't have knocked over, she would've been dreaming, and still that wouldn't have meant they were in Cobb's dream. His totem had to fall or whatever to ensure he was in reality. I do believe Cobb's totem was his wedding ring, because it wasn't seen in the last scene. In allllll of Cobb's dreams, him and Mal were STILL MARRIED AND STILL TOGETHER. when he wasn't dreaming, it was reality, and Mal had killed herself. So, he didn't wear his wedding ring. But, we don't see any reference to his wedding ring at all during the movie. Maybe only when Mal asks "do you remember when you asked m to marry you?" but again i think that was another idea Nolan wanted us to figure out or think of. Another reason I think they did it is because when Cobb is walking back to collect his things, Fischer Jr. recognizes him, but not directly. and they all don't talk to each other because they don't want Fischer Jr. to suspect ANYTHING ABOUT THE DREAM OR THE IDEA THEY PLANTED INTO HIS MIND. And the whole theory that he was still dreaming because when he woke up they weren't concerned for him, wasn't right either. Ariadne tells Arthur that Cobb will be okay, When Arthur says he will be lost. They all know he will be okay. And they didn't talk to him because of what i said in my last comment. The reason Cobb got through security without a problem was because Saito called right when he woke up and kept his promise to Cobb. I think that's why Nolan inserted the security pause also.

[@MoneyTrees2012]

I rewatched the movie today after 8 years and it turns out that as of yesterday I believe (crazy timing) the ending was confirmed to have been reality. Good to know because I was freaking out for a couple of minutes until I looked it up.

[@tykjenffs]

@Karnezar The end being a dream or not is still in question. Cobb did not ride the big kick, he stayed behind to look for Saito, the only man to redeem him of his regret. He found Saito, in a state of being old, filled with regret and waiting for someone. And that someone was Cobb. And Cobb had the totem with him, which started to remind Saito. And when Saito realized limbo was not real, he kicked Cobb and himself out of limbo with the gun.

[@tykjenffs]

Limbo is also a state of mind. If one is lost in Limbo and wakes up without knowing its not real, one will probably end up like Mal; brains for scrambled eggs leading to a tragic suicide. Cobb only knew one way of getting to Limbo. Which means Ariadne must have done some experiments of her own during the planning of the Fischer mission, since she proposed to just dream one level further when Cobb thought it was all over. Ariadne knew she was entering Limbo, so she had no problems escaping it.

The entire movie is an inception on the audiences mind from the inceptor. Which is why they movie's time length mirrors the same length of the song they play before going back up a a level. Which is why the the spinning top is left going on at the end (the same way Cobb incepted Mal's mind with the safe and the spinning top). Which is why people are still talking about this today (the idea is growing) because Christopher Nolan incepted our minds, hence the movie being called INCEPTION!!!

[@tykjenffs]

Regardless of your theory, it could also mean he got back to reality. Cobb's radical notion of the top projected its special property when Saito set it to spin. And Cobb could not see his childrens faces in the dream world, only in reality. And seeing their faces again was his assurance, enough to ignore the top in reality.

[@cameronbrown8674]

It’s because they’ve had that conversation in limbo beforeC, many times. The first scene isn’t a flashback, it’s a loop. Which is why it’s the same but slightly different. It’s de ja vu for both Cobb and Saito realising who each other are and what they’re doing there. There may have been many iterations until the sedative in real life wore off and they could kick themselves out of limbo.

if the levels above have collapsed you go straight to reality. and in order to get to level 4, one must travel through level 1 2 and 3. 3 Dreamers needed, but Mal and Cobb were only 2.

1. Cobb + Mal had their kids around them in Limbo. To the point where it broke them. 2. Saito is waiting for someone... so the guards might just check with him first.. 3. Cobb most likely trained Saito in Dreamshare. So its militarized.

It's called, plot-holes. 😊

[@supersport1625]

It’s a movie stupid… just enjoy the masterpiece we got and stop trynna be that guy

[@Observer_detector]

[@Syrastro]

What would that be like? Having lived 50 years in limbo like saito did, and just “waking up”

[@tykjenffs]

Saito was just fine. He went straight for the phone call as he promised!

[@MaxClough-ji5cd]

Incredible edit!

[@tykjenffs]

Thank you! Its basically a pure edit of what I 'saw' on the screen as the finale happened. Flashes of the past conversations ^

[@Gunslinger65]

The unending dream!

Come back so we can be young men togather again

[@AttackMyClone]

When I was high on shrooms a few weeks back, Inception played a BIG part in my trip. Got paranoid about being stuck in limbo/time/something, was struggling to separate reaity and my hallucinations and I think this scene played a big part in that.

[@logansuniga2666]

AttackMyClone I was on a 3rd plateau of a DXM trip and I can’t stress this enough bro I feel you.

[@sonsofaxe5367]

I was on a lil lsd and rewatched inception for like the 3rd time. When i finally understood that saito was stuck for like 50 years it really messed me up and hit me hard

[@basterbuddy2769]

Rewatch on acid

[@ballwizard6]

quando si risvegliano e si guardano mi viene un colpo al cuore, lui è vissuto altri boh 60-70 anni, la sua mente è invecchiata tantissimo, chissà che trauma, ti fa dubitare di tutto, ti fa sperare che il film sia vero, che possa davvero avvenire

[@hellobeautiful5225]

When I saw this in the theater , the music was SO LOUD that I almost complained to a manager. It shook the walls! You could hear it next door in other theaters while they’re movie played. I know this, cause I snuck into another movie after this one ended.

[@tykjenffs]

Yup. Its the perfect ambiguous ending which should be embraced like Cobb's kids.

제가 눈 앞에서 보고 있는 것은 환상이고 현실의 단면이라는건 확실해졌어요.

[@janispetke8899]

Im not in Facebook, my friend and me always get this kinda of conversation over me coming back to Facebook (i deleted my account couple of years ago). The Inception Time theme starts to roll when i activate my account and scroll down on peoples updates.

[@SuperPhilly5]

COBB NEVER GOT OUT OF HIS OWN DREAM HE USED MEMORIES AND IF YOU REMEMBER HIM EXPLAING THAT TO ARIADNE NEVER USE SCENE FROM YOUR MEMORY BECAUSE IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DISTINGUISH WHAT IS REAL OR WHAT IS A DREAM

[@MoneyTrees2012]

He did get out though. The ending was reality

[@derrikallen]

Fucking great scene

[@tykjenffs]

@TheMrTJWhite Thank you sir :) Yea I took some minor liberties, the adding of the earlier moments between Cobb and Saito to their words, is often how I wish it was originally. The Deja Vu they felt in limbo, gave me such a strong release of emotions.. I just HAD to make this video in the wake of Inception.

[@sparda9060]

he took it as his totem after she died as a reminder of how dangerous inception and how fragile the human psyche is.

[@berkkarsi]

What is he eating at 0:11? Is it porridge?

[@Clough-Daddy]

Next level editor!

[@tykjenffs]

Thank you very much! Inception was so inspiring... I found Jung and could not stop getting ideas ^

[@JanusZeewier]

Nice touch! Maybe because, if you can project human beings with all the abilities we saw in the movie, there might be a chance that the projection is extensively refined, i am that the projection in limbo can go as far as human with beings with their feelings and memories and so on.
