10. "i know the flack it gets around here but...INCEPTION..." In response to In response to 7
...is one of his greatest flicks. without over-analysing it, i thought it was the most emotionally-resonant film he ever made (in that, it wasnt so cold and procedural and speechy as the Batflicks eventually got to be). i know it certainly came off that way on my first viewing (@ IMAX), but then i saw it another 3 times after that and the minimal amount of speechafying we did get (via explanations of how inception works, which felt like it took up half the movie on the first go) gave way to Cobb's epic struggle and his crazy emotional mindstate.
i really do think its still a kickass moofie. would have no problem making it an interchangeable option for the #1 spot.
TDKR tho? i wish it didnt exist to be honest, but its always gonna be his worst film.
