Cool Videos: Screen Junkies’ honest trailer for Christopher Nolan’s Inception

I have to say, I love Screen Junkies’ Honest Trailers.  I don’t always agree with everything in them, but damned if they don’t make some great points throughout, which are usually echoes of what we’ve all felt about some of our favorite films.  INCEPTION is a hard nut to crack.  Christopher Nolan‘s ambiguous, literally mind-numbing sci-fi thriller is a divisive film, due largely to the fact that it never spells things out.  Many attribute this to it being a “smart” film, but I don’t think that’s the case.  I think it’s a philosophical film that is meant to screw with your head in every way that it screws with the characters heads.  And, I thought it was great. 

However, not everyone feels the same.  There have since been numerous explanations and theories, most of them put forth to assuage more delicate viewers that it wasn’t all a dream so they can have a happy ending.  Personally, I think they’re missing the point if that’s all they want, but I digress.  Let’s let Honest Trailers do their work.

BRAWWWWWWNNNN:

We can always remember INCEPTION as the film that made such heavy use of the “fog horn” sound effect that reverberates through every trailer made these days (see: STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS, PACIFIC RIM, etc.).
