Decoding the end of ‘Inception’

Decoding the end of ‘Inception’

I should not have to tell you, but I will, there are SPOILERS for Inception ahead.

So one of the big mysteries left to us at the end of Inception is whether Cobb was in a dream or in reality. Well according to this French dude, we don’t have to wonder anymore.

I’m not sure if I completely buy it, but it is a very astute and interesting observation. I have always believed he was in reality anyway. It’s what I wanted for the end of the story, so that’s what I believed.

Check out the video (you’ll have to turn on English subtitles):

TNG Season 5 Blu-Ray Review

TNG Season 5 Blu-Ray Review
Matt Wright - TrekMovie

Season 5 continues the well oiled machine that we knew as TNG. Season 5 is one of the best seasons of TNG. Of course Season 5 includes “The Inner Light” and other excellent episodes such as “Power Play”, “I,Borg” and “Cause and Effect.” Read on to see how the season looks re-mastered and details of the generally excellent new bonus features, available November 19th in North America.

Of course, being the Trek nerd that I am I read this whole review. I can’t believe I don’t have any of these remastered season on Blu-ray yet. But, you know, money and stuff…

‘Almost Human’ Extended Trailer

‘Almost Human’ Extended Trailer

For those who, like me, won’t catch the part one of the pilot until tonight via Hulu, you are probably still quite interested in this trailer. The pilot is a two parter and part one debuted last night on broadcast TV. I have neither the time nor the inclination to make sure I’m in front of my TV at any set time. Hulu (or some service like it) is the future, and that’s the way I watch TV. At this time the (stupid) powers that be have decreed that Hulu must be delayed by a day. So I wait one day. I’ll be catching the pilot tonight and I am really looking forward tot his one!

I can tell you…

Super Smash Wars

Oh my goodness I’m such a nerd! I have found the most awesomely ridiculous (or ridiculously awesome) thing in possibly this whole galaxy, or a galaxy far far away, or really the whole universe. If you love movies, video games (particularly older video games), and Star Wars you are really going to love this. Prepare to be knocked into light speed!

Thor Credits Tease Sets up Guardians of the Galaxy Stuff

Germain Lussier interview with Kevin Feige

And there’s the first tease at the end of the movie is obviously Guardians, but it also, with the infinity stone, seems to set up some Phase 3 stuff. Is that safe to say?

Yeah. I mean we have… We are always sort of building towards additional things and what’s fun about that reveal for fans and for fans of comics and fans of movies is I think that’s the first time that we reveal that The Tesarac is an infinity stone, that the aether is an infinity stone. You may see another infinity stone in Guardians and certainly fans of the comics know what one can do with all of those stones if, god…

Back in October, I travelled to London to do interviews for the current #1 movie in the world, Thor: The Dark World. Since then, we’re run a bunch of quotes from my interviews, but now that the film is out, we’re going to run all the interviews in full over the next three days. Here you can read about all the spoiler discussion in context, as well as more specific questions related to the film and some stuff about upcoming projects and superhero movies in general too.

Rated S for Super Spoilers! - Man of Steel Honest Trailer

Rated S for Super Spoilers! - Man of Steel Honest Trailer

YES! I’ve been waiting for this for what seems like my whole life — or at least since I got out of the theater from seeing this horrible travesty of a film. This film was such a horrible train wreck that I don’t even need to put my normal caveats in place about how while I enjoyed the honest trailer I still lliked the film. No, I think Man of Steel pretty much deserves every one of these jabs and more.

This may be the most fun I’ve had with one of these yet.

We’re obviously going into spoilers here so please be aware!

This article contains major spoilers for Thor: The Dark World.

One of the best things about Thor: The Dark World is it leaves many intriguing unanswered questions. The biggest one involves the ripple effect of the mid-credits scene, which we’ll discuss shortly. But there’s also the fate of Loki. As you know if you’ve seen the film, there’s no real definitive answer as to Loki’s intentions at the end. To get an answer, I went to the source (or sources): Tom Hiddleston, director Alan Taylor and Marvel President Kevin Feige. I asked…

‘Gravity’ - VFX Breakdown of one Shot

‘Gravity’ - VFX Breakdown of one Shot

I don’t know about you guys, but I really love this stuff. This breaks down how a CG helmet was placed in the scene floating around in the cabin with Sandra Bullock as she was attempting to figure out how to maneuver the escape pod thing she was in. I’ve done 2D and pseudo 3D work in After Effects, but this is a different world altogether. What’s really remarkable is that though I remember this shot, I had no idea that the helmet in this particular shot was 3D. In fact, if you had asked me about this shot I would not have remembered that there was a floating helmet in it at all. It’s a…

What Loki Scenes Were Added to ‘Thor: The Dark World’

What Loki Scenes Were Added to ‘Thor: The Dark World’
Germain Lussier - /Film

If one were to believe all the negative buzz during production on Thor: The Dark World, you’d assume the film is a disaster. It’s not. In fact, it’s pretty fantastic and a shining example of how things many laymen think of as huge red flags — such as reshoots and rewrites — can actually be used to drastically improve a film.

During production, several rumors came out about the making of the Thor sequel. In the coming days, we’ll give you the scoop on all of them. First up, much was made over the fact that director Alan Taylor went back to add more scenes with Tom Hiddleston‘s Loki. That’s…
