Inception (Nolan, 2010): Contemporary Sci-fi/Action

Re: Inception (Nolan, 2010): Contemporary Sci-fi/Action
I think this film will be the most innovative film we have seen to date. I like how the article stressed Nolan's use for real special effects versus building things in a computer. I also liked how he was quick to say this was not like Avatar or Surrogates but more like The Matrix and The Dark City. That alone says a lot. Christopher Nolan is my favorite "blockbuster" director.
Also, what was that about Superman? He's going to take on Superman after Batman wraps up?

Yeah. I'm super glad for Nolan being a HUGE Director but also an artist. In a way, and I'm not comparing to him directly to the quality of him but, he's like Kubrick. Studio wise..he's got it all. They're letting him do whatever he wants now and he's an awesome visual director utilizing the frame for depth in character and story.

I don't care what the rating is as long as it's a good story that doesn't feel like it was held back by anything.

Ah so it's official eh?
Anyone wonder how one becomes a member of the MPAA? I also wonder if it's a full time gig...watching films months ahead of their release would be awesome.

"violence and action throughout" - sounds good to me!
Certainly as Nolan has proven, films can be intense without the f-words flying or blood splattering. They can also include all those things and be completely boring, all depends on the talent behind the camera.

I cannot wait to see this.
If it's as good as I expect, I hope WB doesn't fuck up the eventual BD.

There was a documentary about what a sham the Ratings Board is. It's by Kirby Dick and it's called THIS FILM IS NOT YET RATED (2006). Here's the synopsis from IMDB, which provides more info to help answer your question:
"Documents a history of the MPAA ratings board. Talks to numerous directors and actors about the censorship of their movies before they could be released. Includes directors, Kevin Smith, Matt Stone, John Waters, Darren Aronosfsky, Maria Bello, Atom Egoyan. Director, Kirby Dick hires a lesbian family of private investigators to find out the names of the MPAA ratings board and see if the raters are actually parents of children 5-17 like the MPAA tells American parents they are."

I'm not bothered by it but you may want to spoiler it for some people.

I don't mind knowing a bit about what the film's about... and that description has me very intrigued. Sounds like this should be a mindfuck.




Supposedly he's been tasked to produce or provide creative input on it.
