    Think about that fact that you yourself are still thinking about this movie...that is inception...it does not matter how he does it, it is the fact that the movie itself is about movie making and you are, in turn, have had an idea/though planted into your mind.

    From a quick search on google
    Why did Cobb perform Inception on Mal?
    A: Cobb and Mal were trapped in Limbo for 50 years, unaware that their world wasn't real. Cobb eventually discovered the truth, but Mal refused to accept it. In order to get Mal to kill herself and return to the real world, Cobb performed Inception on her, planting the idea that the world wasn't real in her mind. This worked, they killed themselves and escaped Limbo. Unfortunatley, the idea remained in Mal's mind and once they returned, she was unable to accept that the real world wasn't a dream.

    Considering it was possible to perform inception within a dream then how he did it on his wife needs no explanaion at all really.

    The answer is simple. The writers of the film were on speed and acid. No other explanation is required.

    You asked a question and he answered it. There's no need to be prissy about it, or else why should anyone else bother trying to help you?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    He played with her Totem, seeing as it constantly spins that helped her to know that limbo wasn't reality to her.

    he said that she used the totem to let herself know she was in her own dream..
    not someone elses dream..nothing to do with limbo or reality..

    the movie didn't show it.

    i'd say you're a prat


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,075 ✭✭✭IamtheWalrus


    The way the OP is going on I'm tempted to call her a troll.

    "but ...just how does he do it?" - First you ask the ridiculous question that none of could possibly know what you are on about.

    Then you get a valid reply from Insulting_Bitch and you patronise him/her.

    OP you sound like a kunt.

    In the words or Col. Nathan R. Jessep "You can't handle the truth" or inception in this case. Every poster who has bothered to reply you have just been rude back to, rejecting what they say as not good enough. Maybe the concept is just beyound your grasp.

    And don't forget, it's a movie, there will always be plot holes as they won't have thought it out to the smallest detail, it's not like they are trying to explain the meaning of life.
