There is a scene close to the end that is a must see for anyone who loves bein' backwards. Plus it's the best movie ive seen in a loooong time. Inception, Opens Friday.
 
If I was in Inception, and Leonardo di Caprio was playing out my thoughts, the whole thing would be one long ski movie.
 
REdiculous. just got back and I dunno what to say. I'm honestly speechless. I need a few days to let this sink it. Really well done, its almost a shame it had to be made one movie. Definetly worth a watch
 
with the time they had though they did an excellent job of explaining everything and creating a great story
 
And as a side note, James Heim and Ian Macintosh did the ski stunt work for this film. Skiers in the biggest movie of the year. schweeeeet.
 
Those Splices with blackout lens and white frames were so fucking baller. Anyway the movie was a total mind fuck and sooooooo sick. A must see.
 
was leo wearing anon figments? I couldn't tell very well. Anyways that movie was great! It's now on my top 3 next to pulp fiction and memento
 
I wanted to see it until I saw the trailer with the ski scenes in it. Then I wanted to see it twice as much. Fandango'd for this weekend.
 
Yes. Also, he was riding switch in pow on those skis too.

I can never understand why agents always choose the wrong ski. I mean, in movies like James Bond, Inception, etc, there is always a chase which inevitably involves some pow, some hucking of cliffs, some switch riding, yet they choose 70-waist groomer skis.

For that scene, something around the 112 waist mark would have been perfect, fat enough to float, thin enough to charge and stay nimble.
 
The good guy was riding decent skis for the situation all the projections were rolling on rentals. Not even twintips.
 
I was wondering if anyone knew who was stunt skiing, sweet.
That movie was the biggest mind fuck I've ever seen, not too mention one of the sickest movies I've seen in a long time. I recommend going to see it for sure.
 
one of the guards was wearing splices

and leo was wearing figments

none the less an amazing movie
 
Well if it was James Heim, then I guess he was on painted Sollys. Who cares if it's a huge Hollywood blockbuster, sponsorship is sponsorship aha.

But seriously, I had no problem accepting that people can enter each others' dreams, and plant ideas, but I could not accept the fact that the bad guys were skiing trees and pow on 160cm slalom carves
 
definitely does live up to the hype, so nasty. im definitely gonna have to see it again tho haha, its mad confusing. picture, matrix +oceans 13+ the bourne movies+james bond+ a michael crichton book and it was basically just dope
 
Legit the best movie I have ever seen. Book of Eli was up there on my list only to be replaced by Inception.

Ski scenes were dope! I want a pair of those splices the subconcious guards were wearing. So sick!
 
I thought the one flaw of the movie was the ski scene. Apparently the projections never learned the basic athletic stance...
 
Same dude, that was some of the most ridiculous shit i have ever seen. Im still not entirely sure that they could have used cables on it.
 
agreed, it'll be sick to see it without the effects, but here's a synopsis to help you envision the set-up

from wiki:

The production moved to England and shot in Cardington, a converted airship hanger north of London.[31] It was there that long hotel corridor able to rotate a full 360 degrees to create the effect of zero gravity for scenes where dream-sector physics become chaotic was constructed by production designer Guy Hendrix Dyas, special effects supervisor Chris Corbould, and cinematographer Wally Pfister. The filmmakers originally planned to make the hallway 40 ft (12 m) long but as the action sequence became more elaborate, the hallway's length grew to 100 ft (30 m). The corridor was suspended along eight large concentric rings that were spaced equidistantly outside its walls and powered by two massive electric motors.[31] One of the film's actors, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, spent several weeks learning to fight in a corridor that spun like "a giant hamster wheel".[26] Nolan said of the device, "It was like some incredible torture device; we thrashed Joseph for weeks, but in the end we looked at the footage, and it looks unlike anything any of us has seen before. The rhythm of it is unique, and when you watch it, even if you know how it was done, it confuses your perceptions. It's unsettling in a wonderful way".[26] Gordon-Levitt remembered, "it was six-day weeks of just, like, coming home at night fuckin' battered ... The light fixtures on the ceiling are coming around on the floor, and you have to choose the right time to cross through them, and if you don't, you're going to fall.
