"Attitude is like posing in pictures. We pose the way we want to be seen by others. But stolen shots are better because they capture the real us."

"I’ve been making a list of the things they don’t teach you at school. They don’t teach you how to love somebody. They don’t teach you how to be famous. They don’t teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don’t teach you how to walk away from someone you don’t love any longer. They don’t teach you how to know what’s going on in someone else’s mind. They don’t teach you what to say to someone who’s dying. They don’t teach you anything worth knowing."
—  Neil Gaiman

DON'T READ IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN INCEPTION YET

I walked out of Inception feeling indifferent. I knew that I enjoyed the 2 hours and 20 minutes that I spent with my eyes glued to the screen. I was entertained to the fullest, as a really good film should. But I was left with wonder. Something that I don't always like. I knew that there had to be some kind of twist at the end because of everyone else's reactions that I've heard of the film. Inception was so well conceptually designed. Retrospectively, it blew my mind. It was so creative, especially in the plot elements such as the simplest aspect of the film on dreams. I feel like I need to go back and watch it again and maybe even again to pull out details to determine if the end scene was a dream or not. I feel like it is a dream because his kids should have aged at that point but I got the impression from the way that they looked at him, that his inception crew seemed to know him as the real person, not from the point of view of a projection. My theory, is that he is in limbo. This movie reminds me a lot of fight club in that you don't really know what is real. It makes you question the "real world" that we live in. Many cultures believe that the afterlife is our real life. Maybe they are right, maybe we are all dreaming. As a person that is so intrigued by how the mind works, I wish I could actually experience the dream travel.
Dream Incubation is a real phenomenon in which you can " 'plant a seed' in the mind, in order for a specific dream topic to occur, either for recreation or to attempt to solve a problem." (wikipedia: dream incubation) I am fascinated and want to learn more. This movie has inspired me and should win an Academy Award. Tweet This

You can't let them know that they've hurt you. Refrain, no matter how bad you may way to let them know. Find another outlet. If you let them know, they've won. Tweet This
