Holy moly that's an amazing movie! The intricacy and precision, the complexity and detail, and yet also a compelling storyline about human frailty. I'm still in the wooing of it and can't quite see the snags yet (there always are some, aren't there?) but dang - that's the kind of oeuvre I aspire to... Does this not say it all? "Inception is a contemporary sci-fi actioner set within the architecture of the mind." (from the Warner Bros. website)
I'm fascinated by inner and outer architecture -- the spaces that we inhabit and how we experience them. I think there are a lot of parallels to be explored between the places spaces we (as individuals, as communities) are drawn to and the organization and contours of our inner minds.
Here's a trailer:

I saw the movie too and was intrigued by the layering of detail and the exploration of the subconscious structures.. Beautifully presented... deep, thoughtful and interesting... It's great to see a movie that really gets one thinking...
wow, thanks for the tip, i can't wait to go see this!
Yes, yes, yes, to everything you said. I LOVED this movie! Also loved the exploration of how simple ideas / thoughts / beliefs shape our reality. And how it all came down to rewriting the stories we absorb from our parents, self-empowerment through positive storytelling! I would love to get a hold of the screenplay... cause there are so many great lines in it!
