>you now remember when audiences thought this movie was confusing and couldn't follow it
>>221820334that's when I knew this board was infected with 3rd world retards
>>221820334it is confusing. >if you do too many levels you get stuck>because you get stuck if you too do many levels
It made no sense. How the hell were they teleporting around everywhere? Why did they wake up on a plane at the end?
>>221820334The whole “1 minute irl is 1 hour/day there” is what confused people. Exponential functions are not intuitive to the human mind.
It's like a zoomer trying to navigate a folder structure
>>221820334ALL of Nolan movies are style over substance. He's a fraud,he's a hack he's a RETARD!
>>221820334HIS TOTEM WAS HIS WEDDING RING
>>221820334It has 30 minutes of over-explanation and people still thought it was for smarties.I actually like that movie though.
>>221820896he should be thrown in prison for crimes against our culturehttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Pov0MKuyJfg&pp=0gcJCZkLAYcqIYzv&ra=m
>>221820334when Joseph Gordon Levitt appeared on screen, that’s when I knew blood was rushing to my penis.
>>221820996Specificity
>>221820334>Mr. Cobb, we're with the DGSE, we just want to ask a few questions if you'd follow us in the airport detention room, please don't make this difficult, we know you're in the possession of a highly classified device that is the property of the US Department of Defence Movie ends there Brava Nolan
>>221820896>>221820952>The Library of Congress selected Inception for preservation in the United States National Film Registry's class of 2025 for being "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant".Keep seething chuds
>>221820334They break their own rules about how you get in and out of limbo it's because Nolan sucks at writing something from start to finish
It still confuses people
>>221821402What exactly is it that people do not get about it?
>>221820896Tenent is actual gibberish and midwits on Reddit can’t admit that it’s incomprehensible for fear of being called dumb
>>221821465Is an Explosion stronger then an Implosion?Did you actually not understand Tenent anon? Its okay.
>>221821462sometimes there will be characters in one place but then there will be characters in another place also
>>221821462Probably the time like he said>>221820862A 10 hour plan ride in real life equals a 1 week dream in the first level. The second dream level is 6 months. The third dream level is 10 years.
Inception's only problem is that it didn't go hard enough on the concept the way memento did
2182161721821465>TenentWhy are talking with yourself?
>>221821814Seperate posters anon.
>>221821692But the film explains it, it is just a "rule" of the dreamworld
>>221820504And just get out of it anyway and the movie was just all a dream
>you now remember when audiences thought this movie was just deep, complicated, and hard to understand instead of just poorly written and nonsensical
It is pretty confusing on the first watch
>>221822822Mal is in all levels except the first one by the way. And it's not clear if the first level "reality" is reality. Remember Cobb's memento. It never stops spinning. Implying that all of it is a dream
>>221820504>>221822822>Saito: I got shot, who cares,? I'm going to kill myself in this dream to wake up>noooo, don't do it! Killing yourself doesn't make you wake up, the sedatives are too strong >How do you get out of limbo?>The only solution? Kill yourself Yeah, crystal clear and not confusing that Nolan is a hack.
>>221822822It's confusing on every rewatch. They break their own rules and how to get out of the dream.
>>221821462How they explain how the dreams work and how you get out of them and how you get into limbo. Explain it. Since it's not confusing for you.
It's not confusing. It's just so fucking boring.It's literally the meme of, "It insists upon itself".Pure garbage.
>>221822758nah nigga dat sheeit wuz dowpe nigga
>>221823598Explain why killing yourself doesn't work to get out of a dream and then they kill themselves to get out of a dream even though they explained earlier that killing yourself doesn't work
>>221823666Because the movie is complete trash, Satan.
>>221824828Thank God that most boards don't have flags or IDs. We would have more derailment like this otherwise
>>221820504That's not confusing, it's the established rule of the story.
>>221820334>duh ending was ambiguous>ending is literally spelling it out for you
>>221821617No, he's right. Tenet is a bullshit premise through and through. Inception is not hard to understand at all.
>>221825071It's supposed to be ambiguous. Nolan talked about it. You're a retard who's dumber than Nolan if you think it's not ambiguous
Nolan only ever made one good movie (Memento). The rest were cape shit (Batman trilogy), mid shit (Interstellar, Oppenheimer), boring shit (Insomnia, Dunkirk), and garbage (Tenet, Inception).>you guys>i am going to star in this movie>let me tell you about it>it's about a dream>yeah, I jump into another person's dream>yes, i can do that>but wait, I am going to make him dream inside his dream>yes, I can do that, too>and then I am going to jump from the dream into the dream in the dream>i can do that too, mmkay?>and then I am going to make him dream in the dream in the dream>you still following me?>so that I can jump from the dream in the dream into the dream in the dream in the dream>what do you mean, why?>because dreams slow down time, silly>which will give me time to change the guy's mind about something>which I will do by changing what happens in the dream in the dream in the dream>yes, I can do all of that>but then I have to get out of there>because the world in the dream in the dream in the dream will start to deteriorate>I don't know why, it just does, mmkay?>which means I have to leave the dream in the dream in the dream by jumping into the dream in the dream>then I have to jump from the dream in the dream to the dream>and then I can jump out of the dream and into reality>sounds like a good movie and not like an absolutely stupid ass ridiculous movie, right?>wait, wait.. hey, where are you going?Fuck outta here with that dumb shit
>>221825100>>221825042Explain this>>221823666 then instead of vaguely jerking yourself off how everything is crystal clear in the movie.
>>221825115>he's never had the universal experience of having a dream, "waking up" and still dreaming Peak NPC
>>221823666You can kill yourself in a standard dream and wake up. But when they are doing a heist, they use heavy sedatives, and if they don't get a "kick" then they go into that deep limbo.
>>221825167>Didn't explain anything I understand now how you retards aren't confused by anything. You don't get anything in the first place.
>>221820334one of the most boring movies i've ever seen, i get it, i just dont get the appeal and made me realise maybe 'cinema' in current year just isn't for me.
>>221825187Anon, I'm sorry. You're just retarded.
>>221823666>>221825130They literally explain it in the movie. The sedative they are using is so powerful that nothing in the dream itself will wake them up. Only the kick method will do it.It's not confusing, you just weren't paying fucking attention.
>>221825156>he's never had the universal experience of having a dreamnolan hasn't because his dreams don't resemble dreams at all.
>>221823666>>221825130It's all in this scene:>EAMES: He's in agony. Let's wake him up>COBB: No! It won't wake him up.>EAMES: What do you mean, it won't wake him? When you die in a dream you wake up.>YUSUF: Not from this. We're too heavily sedated to wake up that way.>EAMES: So what happens if one of us dies?>COBB: That person doesn't wake up. Their mind drops into Limbo.>ARIADNE: Limbo?>ARTHUR: Unconstructed dream space.>ARIADNE: What's down there?>ARTHUR: Raw, infinite subconscious. Nothing there but what was left behind by anyone on the team who's been trapped there before. On this team... just Cobb.>ARIADNE: How long would we be stuck there?>YUSUF: You couldn't even think about trying to escape until the sedation eases-Yusuf gets cut off during that last line, but what he says is enough to answer your question.
>>221825293They explain here how killing yourself doesn't work and ignore it later and kill themselves to wake up. Why does it work later? They literally explained here that it doesn't work.
>>221825206Don't be sorry. It's unfortunately just you who's retarded here and nobody else.
I don't like a single Nolan movie. Even Dark Knight Rises I feel drags relentlessly.
>>221825738The key is in that last line.>YUSUF: You couldn't even think about trying to escape until the sedation eases-Killing yourself doesn't work because they are heavily sedated. After 10 hours pass in the real world, the sedation eases; then you can kill yourself to wake up, like usual.
>>221825761>Even Dark Knight RisesWhat? Like that's supposed to be his magnim Opus. Most people agree TDK was better. He's always been overrated though
>>221825115Uhhh the Prestige?
>>221824972Okay.Is /pol/ in the room with you right now?
The movie is not confusing enough for anyone to complain.>>221820504The limbo shit doesn't make sense. If you die you wake up. But in a heavily sedated dream, if you die you go to limbo. But if you want to go up from limbo you... die? Why doesn't this send you to super limbo?
>>221820504The problems start way before levels are introduced. >If you die in the dream you die in real life???
>>221823411>>221823666This is not obvious or explained>>221826107They also say in the movie that spending even a fraction of the full length of the dream down there could result in permanent psychosis and that is not what happens to any of the characters, so this is not the solution. Of the 4 characters in limbo, two leave earlier and two leave separately later, so it's not like they are all leaving at a specific "after 10 hours" moment either.
my wife fell asleep in the theater and i was like "damn you getting the deluxe edition girl"
>>221820334The thing about this movie is idiots think it's complicated and midwits are smug for understanding it. It's a bank heist movie with a fun conceptual twist. Nothing more, nothing less. I enjoy it but it's neither incomprehensible nor brilliant
>>221827328Some people dont understand Matrix to this date. I get Inception can be confusing but in general it is still a very good movie unlike Tenet which is a piece of fucking garbage
>>221820334I had 0 idea what happened in TeneT. The first time I got filtered by a flick
This is the only Nolan movie I ever enjoyed.It's such a simple formula to follow. Just like Mad Men.>use attractive characters>put them in an attractive environment>have them dress attractively>have attractive musicBoom you have a watchable movie. Yeah the plot is slop. Who watches Inception for the plot? You watch it for the tits, Leo, suits, and epic skyscrapers. And every single other Nolan flick I've seen has been a dark blundering mess that goes on for 3 hours about nothing.
>>221827493Nobody knows because the plot is complete shit
>>221820504>>221827198>there is a material and physical machine that can make people share dreams>somehow the imagined machine inside the dream works exactly the same, even if the person is not even conscious about it ?????????????
>>221820334This was the blandest most boring portrayal of dreams I've ever seen in film. The Cell did it the best.
>>221820334What's really funny is that the movie being confusing became such a meme that it was being used as a joke in TV shows at the time. I think a lot of people just wanted to fit in with the people who found it confusing. Kind of like a proto-anti-intellectualism that has taken over everything nowadays.
>>221827574I watched it for Ellen. I can't stand to watch it any more. RIP.
>>221820334>thread about how normies thought Inception's plot was too confusing>look inside>Anons confused about inception's plotI see.
>>221820334It was confusing only because it was so fucking boring and uninteresting that I found it impossible to pay attention to anything.
>>221820334>Make a dream world as colorless and bland as possibleNolan was always a fucking hack
