) But since then, I’ve usually gotten the movie of my choice – Batman, Spiderman, Star Wars and the like. Last night, we went to “Inception” which was this year’s pick but a little different than the typical Hollywood whiz-banger. I won’t talk about it too much since it’s one of those “you pretty much can’t say anything about till you’ve seen it” but I will say that it was pretty cool. Not as confusing as I heard, didn’t blow me away as the best film in the history of history like it did for some others.
I guess the coolest thing about it is the whole sub-culture that immediately developed to analyze, speculate and consider the film which has so many different levels and ways to interpret it plus so many questions to argue about.
Reddit has
a whole sub-Reddit dedicated to the film with tons of posts which lead to infographics which try to explain the film visually, all sorts of analysis of the characters from Jungian archetypes to my favourite explanation of what they might symbolize and of course, a variety of explanations of the ending which all basically come down to: was it or wasn’t it?
