• High-Brow Sci-fi: Inception Will Kick Ass

    Christopher NolanHow do I know it will kick ass when no one else even knows what the movie is about? By virtue of the talent involved.

    Let’s see if we can’t get you on board. Inception is Christopher Nolan’s new project (you know, the Batman guy? the man that also made Insomnia and Memento), written and directed by Nolan himself. Leonardo DiCaprio had previously signed on to star and news today is that Oscar winner Marion Cotillard, Cillian Murphy and Ellen Page are also in talks to star.

    Really, with a cast this talented, do you really need a synopsis? I didn’t think so and that’s a good thing too because the film’s subject matter is a tightly guarded secret. The most the studio (WB) is willing to leak is that it’s a sci-fi action film “set within the architecture of the mind.” So…like The Matrix? Oh jeez, where do I buy my ticket?

    We’ll be keeping you posted as more details are revealed until then, speculate away!

    Nolan + sci-fi + DiCaprio + Page and I’m THERE. Throw in Cotillard and Murphy and I’m there, like, yesterday.

  2. What a bizarre, varied cast. I’ll go (of course) although surprized to hear the “set within the architecture of the mind” description, but it has lots of possibilities!

    Marion Cotillard is the draw here. If anyone has yet to see Jeux D’Enfants, Run, don’t walk to your nearest online dvd retailer.

    (Yea that makes no sense, but check out the film, It’s called LOVE ME IF YOU DARE, but don’t let that shitty title scare you away).
