Line 34:
* Implied to be the end for [[Total Recall]]. The movie is deliberately ambiguous, although hints like "Blue skies on Mars?" before Quaid goes under imply most of the movie has been a trip into a [[Lotus Eater Machine]] with some very unpleasant brain damage for Quaid (i.e. a "schizoid embolism" according to one of the characters).
* ''[[Inception]]'' has two or three variations: To a lesser extent, the projections who attack any foreign entity in the dream when the host starts to realise he's dreaming; played much straighter, however, is {{spoiler|Cobb's projection of Mal, particularly at the end within limbo}} and inverted with {{spoiler|the real Mal, who was convinced that what Cobb thinks is the real world is a dream, and that she needed to die to return to "reality."}}
* The Hatter mentions this in [[Alice in Wonderland (2010 film)|''Alice in Wonderland,'']] telling Alice that if she is dreaming it all, then he must not truly exist. (She does not deny this.) He doesn't seem ''too'' concerned about it however, even half-jokingly telling her that she must be a little crazy to have imagined someone like him. (She doesn't deny ''that'' either.)
