I saw 'Inception' in the theatre, and found it to be rather long and pedantic. Definitely not a movie I recommend.

Highly speculative here, so please don't jump down my throat...I'm not preaching this as truth, just noting some strange coincidences. And on ATS we should be calling coincidences into question, no? Those of you who are into Hollywood mind-control/illuminati symbolism, neuro-linguisitc programming, elite manipulation of pop culture, etc. might consider this...

WARNINNG POSSIBLE MOVIE SPOILER ALERTS. So if you haven't seen this excellent movie already, do so and then check back with us. Or at least watch the clip below, which is of the opening scene:
Consider the opening scene of the movie. In the first 5 minutes, the hero washes up on a beach in Japan, with waves blowing (beach -- waves -- tsunami?) He then gets taken into a large mansion, which begins to shake and shudder in a manner reminiscent of a large eathquake. Eventually, a combination of shaking and water destroy the Japanese mansion (earthquake/tsunami?)
The VERY NEXT SCENE they cut to a kind of run-down apartment. It's not really clear where they are, but there are heavy riots out on the street and it could easily be a middle-eastern country.
Coincidence? That's quite an opening opening act. The "opening act" (first three months) of 2011 has featured two eerily similar events.
It makes me wonder what else about 2011 could be hidden in the movie. There is a scene later at a kind of hotel bar where there is a heavy squall and the lead character actually says "strange weather." Paris explodes and goes through all sorts of other weird contortions. There are scenes in Kenya, too.
