If they'd gone with "Buffy", does that mean we'd have had Yoda the Vampire Slayer ?
And Spike telling Angel, "You were my sire, man! My Buffy!"
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I only just realized why the hotel for Cobb and Mal's anniversary hotel room was trashed. Even after I finally caught and understood the dialogue where Mal said that she had framed him for her murder if he didn't jump with her.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I do kind of wish Darth Vader had had a lava moat.

It seems like Lucas wanted to have a sci-fi Lord of the Rings.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Most things would be better with a lava moat.
And I`m glad that Inception came back up, because we had this conversation in meatspace, but I don`t think we did it here. What would you chose as your totem? We have a small set of brass African musicians that I think would work. They`re unexpectedly heavy and they were handmade, so the detail on one would not be recreatable without some quality time with it. Small enough to carry with me, emotionally resonant, and unique. But there`s no action associated with them, like the top or weighted dice. So, hmmm.

I'm not sure how the totems really work, but I have an ugly face piece of clay about the size of a silver dollar, and maybe in dreams it would be smushable enough to change the expression to happy?
I read a fic where Mal had a Happy Meals wind-up dino that was broken IRL.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm not sure how Eames' totem worked. I get the principle, just not the application of his.

Because books.
I can't remember any totems but Dom's and Ariadne's now.

I don't remember Eame's totem. Arthur's was a loaded die, so maybe his could roll any number in dreams, but, say, only came up six IRL? Motion seems to be a factor.
Ariadne's, with the hollowed chess piece, perhaps tipped over more easily IRL?
