beansideOh, god why is it Monday again?
Watched "Inception" last night. I know a lot of people who I love and respect think it's the best, most awesome movie in history.
With all due respect to your opinions...
OH MY GOD, THAT IS TWO HOURS I WILL NEVER GET BACK. Seriously. There were good ideas in it. However, they were hampered by the clunky writing, wooden acting, and the presentation that having mind raped his wife made him a tragic hero.
I will concede that Tom Hardy is adorable and snarky. I will concede that he and JGL would be a lovely couple. I will concede that Cillian Murphy is wonderful.
When the movie ended, I disliked it. Now, I LOATHE it.
Christopher Nolan is a very good visual director. Now, if he could get the gist of the actors, he might make a good movie. Batman was good because of visuals and Gary Oldman/Cillian Murphy/Lian Neeson. They're all good enough that they don't need direction. Christian Bale was so busy chewing gravel he was a non-entity, and Katie Homles was annoying. Second one was all Heath Ledger and Tiny Lister. The rest was boring and stilted.
I really hoped that he'd figured his shit out. But no.
Will I watch the next Batman, aka the White Washing of Bane? I don't know. I really don't.

What if Maul was the one who got out, and she spent the movie trying to get her husband out of his own head?
Seriously, we had to go see it again just to see if this was possible, and it totally is. That makes it a slightly better movie. Slightly.
