A boat load of set photo's have been released this week for Christopher Nolan's highly secretive Inception but nothing that really indicates much. Paris looks like Paris. DiCaprio just looks like DiCaprio. Ellen Page still looks impossibly young. DiCaprio is making out with a chick I don't recognise. DiCaprio kind of oddly looks like a good looking Christopher Nolan, same hair/clothes style/posture. I now know thanks to a calling sheet that DiCaprio's character appears to be named COBB - which is also the name of the character in Nolan's first movie Following. Interesting. None of this really gives me a clue as to what the movie is about. And the more I read about it, the more confused I get. A spy for AICN sent in a vague description of what we can expect to see from the teaser trailer for next July's picture which is set to be shown from tomorrow with some prints of Inglourious Basterds.
This was a very short teaser. It started with Christopher Nolan's name, then a flash of a spinning top, then "The Director of The Dark Knight", then a bird's eye view of a city. Then cut to Leonardo in a vehicle, looking on in horror, then a man being drug of a helicopter pad, then the words said something about the "crime seen being in your mind" or "What if the crime scene was your mind?", a glass of water is shown sitting still but the water angles itself, then it cuts to two men fighting in a hallway, but as they jump, the hallway starts to turn, like the glass of water,, and both men collide in the air and start fighting, then the title is revealed.
An IMDB reader also has a description on the 58 second tease...
Now, I wont give much away because it was a pretty good teaser trailer. It got you wanting more. Their is actual footage of the movie, with Leo and others. Their is One fight scene in what looks to be in a hotel hallway, but not just any fight scene. They were fighting all over the hallway, on side walls, ceilings everywhere. I thought Matrix (Dont panic its not the matrix but thats what I came up with) Its gonna be a trippy movie. The end music kind of reminded me of Terminator, not the theme music but u will know what Im talking about. Its only like a minute long and you will want to watch again to see what you just saw. All in all, it was really good.
More Details: It starts with the Warner Bros Logo in grey. Then you see Chris Nolan name. This dradle like thing is spinning around. Director of The Dark Knight words. You see Leos face. Over shot of a city, shaking camera shot. Words come on screen YOUR MIND. Shot of Leo. More words IS THE SCENE OF THE CRIME Then you see a glass of water, with the water in the glass startes to tilt. People fighting in hallway. Gordon-Levitt is one of the guys thats fighting in the Hallway, on the ceiling and walls. You see a quick shot of his face. The word INCEPTION comes up. Then SUMMER 2010.
