* [[Viral Marketing]]: In the Nolan tradition, there's several campaigns up and running, including anti-Mind Crime posters marked with QR reader marks containing links to viral websites.
* [[What Could Have Been]]: James Franco was originally cast as Arthur, he had to back out because of scheduling conflicts. Nolan's first choices for Ariadne and Browning were Evan Rachel Wood and Don Johnson, respectively, but both declined.
* [[Word of God]]: It would seem that the costume designer (of all people) may have inadvertently revealed Nolan's intended ending. Here be spoilers: [http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2010/08/inception_costume_designer_rev.html\]
** Michael Caine as well.
** And finally, Nolan himself. He claims that, as far as he's concerned, Cobb is in the real world, but that the ''real'' meaning of the scene is that Cobb has left his totem behind and that it no longer has any meaning for him. ...Of course, [[Lotus Eater Machine|that doesn't really clarify anything]]. However, he himself does admit he's biased toward the "real world" ending since he's a father himself, and points out that interpretation of the ending may fall along those lines. And the fact that the guy who wrote and directed the movie only has an ''interpretation'' of the ending just serves to underscore that there's no definitive answer to the question of whether the top was going to stop spinning or not.
* [[Word of Saint Paul]]:
** When interviewed about his role, [[Michael Caine]] asserted that any scene that included him was one guaranteed to be in the real world. This either explains the film or makes the [[Mind Screw]] even more confusing.
