'Inception' the movie

Watched "Inception" last night; made me wish for 'closed captioning' at movie theaters. Probably it is me, but it is hard to understand what a lot of the dialog is for the first 20 minutes, combined with the 'unfolding/unveiling of storyline'.... Pay attention.
But I really enjoyed it; great 'mind bending movie'. Good special effect with even better writing. I give it an 'A'.

Yeah, I'm anxious to see that movie, too. I'll wait for the DVD, though. I've found that the theaters just aren't as much fun as watching movies on my new home theater. Never thought I'd prefer TV at home to seeing movies in theaters.

Yeah, good point. I wasn't even considering that aspect of movie theaters.

Very awesome movie, worth the $9.50 I paid.

I am building a home theater piece by piece, once done, I can't see myself going to a movie theater again.

I'll admit to watching any movie Ellen Page is in. The ultimate girl next door. I'll probably see it on DVD on my TEE-VEE as I have no interest in spending the money on a "home theater". Even the term puts me off. Home Restaurant, Home Gas Station, Home Mini-Mart, Home Barber Shop, no thanks.

LOL, home gas station? that HAS to be illegal unless you are a farmer storing diesel for the tractors and such.

Does the mini-mart come with an Indian fellow tell you "Thank You Come Again!" ?

A home theater is a nice thing to have, I play video games once in a while, catch up on the news and enjoy a good Blu ray or two once in a while from Red Box. You really have to want it and use it when you do get it or it is all pointless.
