that's what I first noticed Deadsy Send a noteboard - 26/07/2010 01:29:47 AM
Spin or Drop?

Don't need any reasons, justifications, or arguments.
Simply put what do YOU believe happened to the totem?

Spin or Drop


Given the age of the kids being exactly the same in that scene as in the dreams I say 'Spin'.


I had the impression from the movie that he'd been trying to get back home for "awhile" as in maybe 5ish years or so. Not a short enough period for the kids to be the same size.

I felt there were two ways they could have gone with this movie beetnemesis - 20/07/2010 06:26:34 AM 1280 Views
I thought it was smart of Nolan to use architects in manipulating/exploring the mind instead of Bookwyrm - 20/07/2010 08:03:42 AM 1284 Views

The latter. Ghavrel - 23/07/2010 01:34:24 AM 1079 Views

Objective answer=Neither. Subjective Answer = Spin Sports_Gambler - 23/07/2010 03:15:43 AM 1179 Views
Um... No. The drop theory is perfectly sound. Ghavrel - 23/07/2010 09:23:56 AM 1234 Views
Nope. Here's why.... Sports_Gambler - 24/07/2010 02:28:03 AM 1213 Views
