Speaking of Wes, there's an art show inspired by his work currently playing in SF.
Oh, some of those prints look very cool indeed.
Well, quite a lot of fuss. If I didn't know better, I'd think we were dangerous.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Ha. He doesn't address the "it's all Mal's dream" which is my favorite theory.

Mark Ruffalo is a terrorist. No, seriously. He's why we have to have backscatter scans, obviously.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
DH got the screener for Inception so we watched it again over T-day weekend. I've come to the conclusion that most of the tiny little details that seemed so important and meaningful when I saw this in theatres are actually just regular movie loose ends. (Like Saito buying the airline. I love Saito and it's a great comic beat, but how did he already work out that they would need exactly 10 hours with enough lead time to BUY A FREAKING AIRLINE? And if so, why didn't he mention it earlier? Is the whole Fisher mission just an excuse for Saito to fuck with these people because he thinks it would be funny? Maybe! Who cares, he's awesome!)
I did pay very careful attention to the treatment of the totems since we had that debate here, though, and Ariadne clearly says "It's a very elegant way to keep track of reality." So there is that.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Jessica, in response to the whitefont, I read an awesome Ocean's 11 / Inception cross over that basically posits the same thing.

Do you have the link to this handy? Because that sounds like a thing of beauty that I need to read.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Johnny Depp In Vanity Fair: Disney Hated My 'Gay' Captain Sparrow
NEW YORK — Johnny Depp's flamboyant portrayal of Jack Sparrow in "Pirates of the Caribbean" was good enough for an Oscar nomination, but the actor says Disney was less than thrilled.
Depp talked about it in an interview with rocker Patti Smith for the January edition of Vanity Fair magazine. Depp said Disney "couldn't stand" his Sparrow and one person there even asked if Sparrow was gay. Depp told the Disney executive "all my characters are gay," and he said that "really made her nervous."
Heh.
