Inception/YMMV: Difference between revisions

Line 13:

** And now that the Oscars are out...Nolan wasn't nominated for Best Director (yet still managed to nab Best Picture and Best Screenplay nods) while Lee Smith wasn't nominated for Best Editing.

*** True, but it did win best sound editing, best sound mixing, best cinematography and best visual effects. The only other film to win as much was [[The King's Speech]].

** During the MTV Movie Awards, it lost Best Jaw-Dropping Moment (to [[~~Justin Bieber (Music)|~~Justin Bieber]]'s ''[[Never Say Never]]''), Best Kiss (to [[Twilight (~~Literature~~)|Twilight]]), Best Fight (to ''[[Twilight (~~Literature~~)|Twilight]]'' again), Best Line From a Movie (to ''[[Grown Ups]]'', of all movies), and Best Movie (to...wait for it... ''[[Twilight (~~Literature~~)|Twilight]]''). Fans were not happy.

*** Those fans should probably be told that the target audiences of the MTV Movie Awards and films like Inception [[Periphery Demographic|don't have a lot of overlap]].

* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: Mind Heist, the trailer music is epically awesome.

Line 22:

** One of these Earworms is actually derived from the other one. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVkQ0C4qDvM When you hear it, you'll shit bricks...] It's implied that this music is in the movie because ''the characters are hearing it'', distorted by the time dilation.

* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: We could pretty much call this movie a case of a Darkhorse Casting. Every member of the team has fans and is considered awesome in one way or another.

** But for a more specific example, before this film Tom Hardy was only particularly well known in the UK. US filmgoers, if they had heard of him at all, would probably only know him as being the [[Big Bad]] in ''[[~~Star Trek Nemesis (Film)|~~Star Trek Nemesis]]'', which was a critical and commercial bomb. This film kickstarted his American film career by the sounds of it - he's been linked to quite a few films since Inception's release.

* [[Fan Nickname]]:

** "Team Inception"

Line 29:

*** Which he is only referred to once in passing by Eames

** Ariadne is a [[Avatar: The Last Airbender|Worldbender!]]

** Eames is "the Face", thanks to his filling the same function as the character from ''[[~~The A-Team (TV)|~~The A-Team]].''

** Eames is "the Face", thanks to his filling the same function as the character from ''[[The A-Team]].''

* [[Fetish Fuel]]: Ariadne in her business suit and her hair up.

* [[Fountain of Memes]]

Line 64:

** [blank]'''CEPTION'''. Anything that has something within something will fill in the blank.

** ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2jUhnCU9iA&feature=youtube_gdata Bwong!]'' It's been getting the [http://www.geekosystem.com/inception-memes/ image macro] treatment as well.

** Thanks to the application of [[Older Than They Think]], ''[[Paprika]]'' = ''Inception: The Anime'', ''[[A Nightmare On Elm Street]]'' = ''Inception: The Gorefest'', etc.
